crack

I was watching Shirokuma Cafe a few days ago and wanted to match the voice actors from it to Blood plus, lol.

Katsuyuki Konishi(Haji) voiced Full Time Panda while Jun Fukuyama (Gie) voiced Panda-kun.

This started when me and Rin watched the original Japanese dub of Blood Plus and Gie’s voice being so similar to Panda-kun’s that she has difficulty dissociating Gie’s original voice from Panda, haha. We were actually exposed to the English dub of the series first and in that dub, Gie had a female voice and along with his very feminine appearance made Rin mistake him as a woman.

She was quite shocked when I told her Gie was a guy, haha.

We ended up being curious if any other Blood plus JP VAs were in Shirokuma and surprise, surprise, Haji’s voice actor was there and voices Panda-kun’s coworker, lol.

Him and Akiko Yajima. The latter voiced Riku and Diva.

Here’s a bunch of crack doodles of Full Time Chevalier Panda! Haji and Panda! Gie.

It’s friggin’ silly but I had fun messing around with them, haha. I don’t ship FT Panda and Panda-kun ofc but I totally ship Hagi and Gie,

Below are the loose sketches from my notebook that the doodles are based on:

I also drew child! Gie because him and the rest of the schiff never had a childhood,

Literally.

And I wanted to imagine his child version having bigger puppy dog eyes and those long eyelashes..gahh

He’d be super adorable that I just wanna squeeze his cheeks. <33333

BLOOD十 MOOKS!

I finally got hold of the Material Settings books of Blood+ !!!!! <333

I used a proxy warehouse service for the first time called Buyee. Apparently, it’s the official partner of Mercari for international shipping so I used it automatically, lol. I’ve read a huge number of bad reviews about it online so I was scared that I might have had my money wasted. Fortunately, it arrived much faster than I expected

So yeah, good service at least from my first time experience with them. ^^;;

Anyway, the small books are actually the bonus materials that come with the Limited Edition Blu Ray DVDs and I thought I could get my hands on them for more reference and trivia/ special information. These are the old 2006 / 7(?) ones because there was a new version released in 2020. I want to buy the 2020 blu ray dvds some time and get the “re-edited” versions of the material books PLUS the art book but they’re quite pricey for me atm and I’m still saving up some money for the vet bills gah.

But if I manage to save enough where I don’t feel guilty for spending over 250-300 USD for a blu-ray series, I’d definitely buy it to support them, haha.
