My 5th Anniversary - Maiden 1 (Pixiv Fanbox)

gofile - https://gofile.io/d/sAXA0E

So, it begins. I've been at this for five years now. Honestly don't have a whole lot to say about it, other than thank you for enjoying my stuff and supporting me over the years. Never really planned to be around this long, honestly, but I enjoy animating too much to really quit. And if people like my stuff, why not post it? I figured I'd get tired of it after a few months and disappear into the dust bin of history, but here I am. Time flies.

Still, this whole thing is kind of a 'test' of how much better I've gotten over the years. A test of speed. I kind of failed, since I planned to have 64 characters done in 2 months instead of the 32 I've currently got... but it is what it is. Still, 32 characters posed and animated in four different unique poses in the span of 2 months is not bad by any measure. A little bit proud of myself for it. A little bit. I do still plan to do the remaining 32 in the next couple of months, but that's not really important right now. At 32 characters, plus two breaks of 9 days... I might be finished by the halfway point, who knows?

Regardless, as the first post, the character is revealed. Aerith, who kind of boosted my 'popularity' in a way. My first Aerith animations are still my most liked/viewed/bookmarked animations on Pixiv. They are far from my favorite animations I've done, but yeah. Aerith has played a big part in my 'career', so I figured I'd make her the first one featured. From here on out, though, there won't be any reveals in the post. You'll have to watch the video to find out who is next. That said, I will give some hints. They're pretty bad hints, mind you. I mean, I did come up with them myself, after all. I also plan to talk about the last character featured in the following post and kind of describe my feelings on the animations and the character and any references/remakes that might crop up. Just a sort of 'behind-the-scene' thing. Don't have to read them, but I'll post them anyway.

As for the hint... I'll do it like this.

"Hint - The Hint"

Anyone can guess in the comments, but I won't confirm or deny anything. In fact, I won't even respond to the guesses themselves. I'll just mark down it as a correct guess on my end if there is a correct guess, and then I'll tally up the total correct guesses and if it's more than 50% by the end of all this, there will be a bonus. It's not really an important bonus, but it might feature some... moves. If you catch my drift. I'll try not to let you down.

With that, the real hint:

Hint - The next character's original outfit can hold up many pants.

See? I told you. They're bad.
