\\Results Announcement// (Pixiv Fanbox)

Good evening, everyone!

Thank you for waiting. It's finally time to announce the results of the voting!

I apologize for the slight delay in creating the ranking illustrations. And no, it's not because I've been playing The Legend of Zelda!

Now, let's talk about the vote count. We received a total of [256 submissions] this time. Each person could cast a maximum of [3 votes], resulting in a total of [641 votes]!

Despite the inconvenience of logging in and filling out the answers, we received a significant number of votes. Thank you very much for your enthusiastic participation and support.

thank you all for participating again!

And now, without further ado, it's time to announce the rankings that you've all been eagerly waiting for! Who will emerge as the ultimate champion in first place...?

First place - HOSHINA　Second place - IDUKI

Third place - YUUTA　　Fourth place - HERO-KUN　Fifth place - MASK-KUN

The winner is HOSHINA!!

Congratulations!!

【Details】

I'm glad Itsuki-kun made it to second place. It seems that the two of them must be side by side after all! (Tears)

They're all my children, but these two that I gave birth to first hold a special place in my heart.

In terms of rankings, it feels like it was within expectations.Although I thought cheerful characters like AKI and HARUTO would be more popular among a wider audience, it turns out that's not necessarily the case.

The only surprising one was HERO-KUN, right? Despite only having one nude illustration available exclusively on FANBOX and not having drawn any other explicit artwork, he managed to secure fourth place. I guess the April Fools' game project turned out to be a big success! (Sweat)

Comments From ARK:

First of all, I want to thank everyone who participated in the voting! The number of votes exceeded my expectations, and I was excited to check the submissions every day. The results are pretty much as expected, with HOSHINA and IDUKI taking first and second place. Although I put serious thought into the character designs for each of them, it's still heartwarming to see the eldest (?) shining in the top spots.

YUUTA, the naughty one, secured third place. It seems like everyone really loves the naughty side!

I was also surprised by HERO-KUN's placement. Since April Fools, he haven't had many appearances, but it's astonishing to see him come in fourth. It's be so shy , but it also makes me realize that there are expectations surrounding them.

As we continue to work on game development, 琉希 and I will do our best. Thank you for your ongoing support!

[Gender Ratio]

During this voting, we took the opportunity to conduct a gender survey. The results showed that over 90% of the respondents were male, 1.2% were female, and 4.3% chose not to disclose their gender. This ratio is not surprising, as it closely aligns with the demographics we typically see at events. (Lol)

In the past, there were assumptions like, "This art style must appeal to women," or "There must be a significant female readership." However, the reality is that there are more male readers.

Well, regardless of gender, if you're a fan of shota, we welcome everyone as comrades! ♥

【What kind of themes/motifs would you like to see?】

We received a lot of opinions, and among them, the highest ones were "school-themed," "pure love," "exhibitionism," and "semen extraction." Since I love all of these motifs, I'll definitely draw something based on them!

「Light humiliation」

Is quite intriguing, isn't it? Verbal humiliation, for example, can be quite excited. I really liked the one I drew in the past, like "the park stroll with the older brother." If I come up with more ideas, I'll definitely draw them in the future.

「NTR」

While my characters may have their own love interests, they aren't particularly faithful and enjoy group activities.

Conceptually, it may not align well with NTR (Netorare).

Well, if the opportunity arises someday, who knows~

「Going naked to school + having sex to your heart's content (everyone thinks it's normal)」

This is pretty good! I want to casually draw naked scenes in the classroom.

ARK:

Undisciplined orgy sex was great, but I've never write something that breaks common sense like this.

I've read a lot of stories like that, so I'd like to write one someday!

「Every member of the swimming club swims naked without erection, and then everyone has orgy sex (the captain is also attacked)」

This is good too. Thank you for your good idea!

(supplement the setting, when the captain (HARUTO) joined the club, all his juniors had to deal with their seniors' sexual desires, so Actually, he have the anal sex experienced . And he don't hate it.)

【Reply regarding things to talk about】

Thank you very much for all the support. I was deeply moved by it. It has been a great source of encouragement for me. Thank you so much!

I would like to respond to a few things:

[Q1] Please draw more of HOSHINA and IDUKI!

A: Yes...! The artbook I released in February focused on the two of them, but you're right, I haven't drawn any explicit artwork of them. I will definitely draw more!

[Q2] If the number of dakimakuras increases, will the old ones be re-released?

A: Yes, I believe there will be re-releases if the demand for them increases.

[Q3] Are there any plans to release an uncensored digital version of "Rainbow"?

A: Yes, I will organize the data and release the uncensored digital version together with the upcoming new edition.

[Q4] I like the scene in the second half of Mischief Boy's Observation Diary, where it seems to be blurred during exposure. I'm curious as to why TOMOKI seems to have sunburn marks in the character introduction, but there are no sunburn marks when he takes off his clothes in the main story. Personally, I prefer him to have clear sunburn marks, so...

A: That's right... why didn't I draw it even though I set it to have sunburn marks! ! It was a complete drawing error. It's no fun. I'm really sorry....

I will be careful in the future. Thank you for your advice.

[Q5] I love your works, 琉希! Are there any plans to release a digital version of "Season."?

A: Thank you so much for your support and kind words! For this release, I collaborated with TORANOANA, so the digital version might take a bit longer to become available to ensure it doesn't conflict with their plans.

Additionally, "Season." is an illustration collection, I have been contemplating whether there is enough demand for a digital version or if there is something additional that can be included. Please allow me some more time to consider it. In the meantime, I will do my best to update my FANBOX regularly!

[Q6] I want to see more of HOSHINA x IDUKI in a traditional Japanese style.

A: I want to see that too! I will definitely draw it!

[Winner's List]

I announced it on Twitter, but I'll also post it here~

Since there were a lot of participants, we added 5 more slots to the voting category.

Congratulations to all the winners!

Prize Delivery

The acrylic panels and stands are scheduled to be sent by the end of June. The dakimakuras will be sent after they are completed. I have been reaching out to the winners since yesterday. If you see a DM from me, please reply to it. To avoid being flagged as spam, I have been sending only 2-3 messages per day, so if you haven't been contacted yet, please wait a little longer or send a DM to my account directly. Thank you.

Dakimakura

I plan to draw the dakimakuras once the new edition for August is completed. I will update with rough sketches and progress on FANBOX at that time.

It's been a long post, so I posted it by language this time. (lol)

Thank you again for participating in this project!

I will continue to draw a lot of boys, so thank you!
