Art DGM Volume Covers Thread

[Asclepius]

Apart from the pink tones, I liked it.
I really dislike boys in pink, Although i like yaoi.

The cover is looks a bit simple, and the colours on his lower torso remind me of Rainbow Paddlepops, but it's NEAH! Hell yeah!

Don't make me want to bite him more than i already do. ^_^
Sweet as a lollypop, haha.

KYAAAH! <3
Neah-sama is in the cover!!! ^^ i cant wait to buy it! x_x
thanks for the upload of the pict, it made my day!
i do think that his inner shirt looks like the Earl's shirt too!

 

[Jaymie]

Best cover yet. Sorry Cross and Maria! D:

There's actually a background this time! And I love how she positioned "D.Gray-man" and changed the font for the volume number.

Think of it this way: real men wear pink.

BTW isn't pink considered a masculine color in Japan? I remembered reading that somewhere.

What is that eye above his head? By the way that's not Neah himself but Neah in Allen's body so it's different. And Neah so much wants to be the Earl that he is wearing the same clothing - coat and shirt and all

 

[TitaniumChloride]

she changed again the colors of the coat

Maybe it's because she's using pinkish/purplish lighting here?

What is that eye above his head?

Huh, now that you mention it, 2 things come to mind: Wisely's third eye and the original Homonculus from FMA (irrelevant but true).

By the way that's not Neah himself but Neah in Allen's body so it's different.

That's right, but Neah is taking over the body so it still counts(?)

And Neah so much wants to be the Earl that he is wearing the same clothing - coat and shirt and all

Woah, didn't notice that. Thanks for pointing that out!

 

[ca12nag3]

Its either he wants to be the earl or this is the introduction of him actualy becomming a earl? We still dont know who actualy betrayed who and why.

Also i believe Allen will strike a deal somehow with his inner noah and together theyll fight the earl.

Oh btw that eye? Either Wisely or maybe the 13th noah? he had 1 eye too and hes...nowhere atm.

D.Gray-Man 21

OMG THATS AWESOME! i think that this is not Neah. This is Allen *-*

 

[Mango-chan]

It's so beautiful. ಥ⌣ಥ *Makes into icon*

 

[lil_clutterbox]

wah!! so cool!!! ^^ ow ow ow Its neah controlling allen, see there, his eyes were golden yellow <colorblind> noah traits ^^.

 

[earthforge]

Woah, I actually LIKE this cover! I got my hopes very low after the last volume cover, but WOOT! She's turned the scar back to red! There's also a fair amount of detail.

But especially, the irony of it being Neah with the cursed eye open. Nyahaha! I love that guy sometimes.

 

[Jaymie]

Yeah, Allen's scar isn't blue anymore! It started off as red, turned pink, turned purple, and then Hoshino started drawing it as blue for about a year and a half. And now it's pink again.

The past two volume covers abused blue and purple like woah and there was white space everywhere. This one is back to Hoshino's old style, and I love it.

if this forum had rep points i would have given you one! XD

edit: moveover, as soon as i find a highquality version of this cover im posting it overerywhere around my room!

About the pink tones in Japan the little boys were dressed in blue - the color of the sky to protect them from evil spirits. The girls weren't thought that important to be protected that way so there was't special girl's color. Some guy centuries later decided to think up of a girl's color and picked up pink. That guy was't even Japanese if I remember correctly. So pink was not originally girlish color, especially not in Japan.

 

[andrewsungchehau]

OMG....ITS SIMPLY AWESOME!!!xD Nice job, Hoshino sensei.xD

 

[Dlanor_A.Knox]

Oh my Noah... So beautifull!! I love it!!

 

[ca12nag3]

Neah or Allen, isnt that kind of a passed station already? (talking about the image not the story atm).

Allen will be a noah is what all the other noah said to the exorsists. As far as Neah goes im not sure hes either the noah entity or hes the previous host. I think the latter btw.

So this is Allen as noah.

 

[Zibi234]

hmmmm I'm not sure that this is neah... in chapter where allen was awakening as 14th... the cursed eye was closed while the human eye (right) was open.... and later the left one opened up and allen returned back do his senses...

so more like this is Allen or simply a Fusion of Allen and 14th..... simply allen who kinda cooperates with neah (allen has some of neah memories)

we can remember the card that hoshino will give us ^^ allen is there in that coat... and road is all over him...

but it would be ironic if allen;s innocence changes shape to that coat XD

I mean earl's fat posture is like cover made of some material like we saw when human-earl got to the NA base... than he was all wrapped in kinda like how innocence did to allen.... so I wouldnt be supprised if that coat is a part of his innocence (or 14th's change mode [like tyki was with that huge cylinder/hat back in WSJ issues)


well I dont want allen to disappear as he is funny... neah is well the destroyer so I doubt allen will totaly let him do as he pleases ^^ not mention that allens innocence could kill him...

but yeah the question is if this is neah on cover... we see that he touches the left arm yet it doesnt hurt him at all... so why his noah body is not beign poisoned by innocence ^^ hope we will learn it in future... like why allens innocence doesnt kill him now like normal innocence does (is it becouse of the resolve... save humans and akumas... and allen is well both xD)

anyway good cover... it shows what will happen in future (what allens fate is)... and well is allen on his own or did he remain with order... or went with noah's....

Volume 21 is titled Ritoru Gubbai (Little Goodbye), so it's confirmed that this covers from Chapter 194 to 199 (six chapters).

 

[relory]

Beautiful cover! *_*
I love the color palette Hoshino used for this!

I agree with those who think it's Allen as a Noah, not Neah
About the giant eye in the background, it reminds me of the Eye of Providence, as well as the "Father" from FMA. (God/Buddha/Horus/Neah/Big Brother is watching you, Allen! ). (I just got fuel under one of my speculations 8D But that's just me and my crazy theories, no sharing this tiem, wrong thread )

We also get to see what the chair-pattern-thing from the "dream-world" looks like, it's in mosaic 8D I remember, when Nea(h)'s name was discussed, someone brought up this place, Nea Moni of Chios, which is well-known for its mosaics ^^ But that must have been a coincidence... or was it? *dun dun DUN*

Are there any Spoilers yet? x_X
