"Blossom Apartments has a full-time maid, so I thought Gulfside Rest should have one as well."

We can do this crossover in Refuge! Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Tomoeda and Cardcaptor Usagi, together again for the first time!

They look good together:

And of course their friends have to meet as well:

"This is an excellent excuse to pretend to be simple tourists in Ottawa. If we are careful, nobody will suspect that we are here for our employment interview with Lord Artemis."

"There's only one problem with this plan. I never learned how to skate."

"I'll just have to teach you, then."

"Jupiter, how many channels can you pick up with that thing?"

Looks like somebody isn't having any trouble adapting to 21st-century fashions (although two or three of the others still are, it seems)...

No, no, Rin, we said "Konata is in Canada". We didn't say a thing about Kaneda.

Can you imagine Harley looking at that pic and going "hmmmmm"?

[robkelk]

At the bike or the rider? (Rin looks older than 16, and Harley's only 35.) Anyway.


Moving slightly away from the bikes... Race Queen outfits over the decades, as modeled by the girls from Bakuon!!

Triple-sized versions are available at the "Source" links.

In case anybody else needs a smile right now, some fan art that was posted to Twitter X last weekend.

Is that Kero's true form? Certainly enhances my visualization of a certain moment near the end of Shattered Skies: The Morning Lights chapter 60:

Spoiler

And the near-silence of the street was broken by a lion's roar. Something like a mountain lion, to be exact, golden and regal, which rushed past them at blinding speed and took Joker's left arm with it. Just the arm, the rest was left behind. Ten meters away, the great beast tucked in his massive white wings as he paced back around with his prize clutched in his teeth… but not for long. He bit down savagely, crushed it to a mass of ink-blood and pulp in his jaws, and spit it to the side, disgusted. "There!" snarled the lion in a thick Kansai accent. "That's for tryin' to tear off my wings, bastard!"

[robkelk]

That is Kero's true form, yes. As he would ask, isn't it cool?


And, since I don't post to this thread without at least one image to share... This one's a week old. Source

'Tis the season to get all dressed up...


(triple-sized copy here)

... spend time with somebody special ...


(sextuple-sized copy here)

... and maybe just have fun and dance. Sorry, you'll just have to go see the MP4 file.

All by the same artist.

I know this one's a little late. It was posted late.

What, did Yukari-sensei teach her how to drive?

I have no idea who this is -- she's an original character, and I don't see any other pictures of her from the artist.

She could be a building manager, maybe...

Back on the Minako/Rei Christmas one, I really like that and it's appropriately in character. Except, what is going on with Minako's skin tone. Is this AU kurogal!Minako? Probably not with that clothing, but it makes me wonder about the possibility.

First, she doesn't need to worry about her family's honour while she's in Refuge. Second, she's now living close to the Jersey Shore...

Hey, SI-Rob tells Minako time and time again to put on gloves and a scarf when she goes outside in the winter, but does she listen? And who has to listen to her complaints after the fact? Not any of the other displacees, I'll tell you that. I don't know how she expects to have skin like this when summer arrives...

I recently discovered art of the Magic Knight Rayearth Rune Gods ... (remainder spoilered in case you don't know the twist at the end of MKR)

Spoiler

... in mecha form. Very dynamic art, as to be expected by Morishita Naochika (who's best-known in North America for his Gundam box art.)

Can't help you with iron. And we have to switch artists for mithril.
