Art Volume Cover and Official Art Thread

Aw man, it's a crying shame that he didn't go with those designs for Therion and Dolores, they look pretty awesome.

 

[FKS]

Interesting how he's talking about strength and ability there. It'll be interesting to see how he'll use the new characters.

Dolores is confirmed dead with this.

The original word is 実力 (real ability, true strength, competency), and I used both words in the translation.
And yeah, Dolores's pretty much dead.

 

[baditz]

damn that cool design, i hope they back, Therion will fight Ban, and Dolores will fight Diane.

No they're dead, you can make that out from the text.

cannot you let me have a dream?

and you said, Nakaba had a scenario in mind where they're both alive. so it's still has chances for future arc.

 

[Yakkun]

As cool as this is, I'd prefer to Helbram to be the only character who refuses to pass on to the Capital and haunt King, we don't need any more Zombie around. Some characters really simply die. I dunno, with Dolores it might not have been this big of a deal but with Therion it kinda is. It would invalidate Zhivago's entire struggle and his regrets over the years. Just let the sweet prince sleep.

Nah, Baditz. I'm right there with you, I'd love to have Therion in the story after seeing that design, but it's not happening.
Having a draft for characters doesn't mean it has to happen exactly like that in the final story. And like Yakkun said, it'd cheapen Zhivago's arc a lot if his dead son suddenly lives again. That kinda stuff is why Naruto fell flat on its face towards the end (more like halfway through...how many years did that dumb war go on in the manga? lol)

Also, as off-topic as it gets but...HOLY FUCK WE HAVE A BENTHAM EMOTE?!?! ALL OF MY YES!! :3

 

[FKS]

…I just realized I derped on the second design page, the word "younger" in the second box is supposed to be for Zhivago, not Therion.
I already asked BasedAnon to fix it.

 

[Yakkun]

Does someone remember from the recent chapters - was Denzel's research tower build but him or did he just take residence in the structure? The door design with the red demon head tipped me off, I thought it could be much older than we know and maybe was used by the demons in the past?

Had, in the past. It's no longer the case. They were supposed to be featured in the festival, but that didn't happen.

But sure you can keep dreaming.

Can this thread also be used for official game art?

 

[Notice me Escanor senpai]

Can this thread also be used for official game art?

If you want to you can make a thread for the Pokekishi game (right?). Not sure if it really counts as official art, since it's not drawn by Suzuki I reckon(at least not a whole lot of it).

 

[Demonspeed]

Can this thread also be used for official game art?

No unless it's drawn by Nakaba. You can create a thread for this or post them in the Hangout thread.

 

[Yakkun]

IIRC he is sort of involved with some of the designs. I think he created a couple of a filler arc character stocks. And weren't Arden and Deldrey originally game designs before they appeared in the manga? Or was that the other way round?

Anyway, if I find a moment I'll make a thread for it because some of the stock arts are really awesome, especially those based on fan contest designs.

I think it's better to make a whole thread for it, and even post translation of the events with the permission from their authors.

Side story / "The Adventures of the Scrap Disposal Brogade" 1
Hey, Oslow! I'm off because the tavern's refilling its stocks today.
We've still got time until Vaizel.
Anyway, we of the Scrap Disposal Brigade are off to an adventure!!

Bafu bafuh?
You duuuuummy!! By adventure, I meant treasure hunting!! And by treasure, I meant scraps.

Ba… bafuh? (Is… is that so…?)

According to the informant, there is a legend that says the treasure of the fairy clan, the giant clan or the goddesses clan sleeps deep in the Kendal mountain we just happen to be passing by…
Box: Informant

Bafoooo bafu bafuh… (Wh… what an extremely vague and not very credible legend…)
Now let's go!!

Bafoh Bafuuuh (Got it, captain!!)
Very good.

Hoaaaaa!?

That was fast, we have an encounter with a monster!! A demon snake!!

Keep at it, Oslow! Get fired up, don't lose your heart!!
Oh oh, you've stopped? How sloppy you are!!

Bafon (Captain.)
What's it?

Bofuh (You're heavy.)
Don't act like a spoiled child, you doggy.

It's not like I wanted comfort by having you carry me around like this… you get it?

This one too is all for your training!!
Babafoh? (Ah, we weren't hunting the treasure?)

Hmm? Treasure? Really?
Well, that doesn't matter. I'm hungry, let's get home.

Box: Thus the adventure ended.
Oh yeah, should we invite Cath too next time?

The end
