Normally I refrain from sharing personal things like this, but I feel that this particular part of my life has long became a collective endeavor...


But don't open the champagne yet, there is still a long road ahead of me. Getting the visa will be a pain, and so many things could go wrong...

But first step has been made...


Almost ten years ago I would browse through the VanArts website without any hopes of actually ever getting anywhere near that school... And now I get the acceptance letter, from the freaking VanArts 0_0


Seriously, it's a good thing I am typing this in instead of recording a video because I think I could actually tear up a little... I'm serious...


I'm making this a "patrons only" post, because you guys are the only ones I want to share my feelings with about this whole thing...


Yes... Thank you... Wow...... really... Freaking VanArts, man... You guys are unbelievable for doing this...

Congratulations! Y'know, I decided to throw in my support after playing through your first games. Now that I've played (an unhealthy amount of) PTGE, I'm really impressed with the sheer amount of work that was added to the original. Glad to hear it's all paying off!

Congratulations! I've been looking forward to this post. Those guys will hone your already vast talent to superweapon levels. I'm in the general area and I'm sure some of your other fans are as well so maybe we can get together and hoist some beers sometime. (Also, we'll taste test yours first in case enemy agents get to the bartender.)

Oh man, congratulations, dude! You've worked so hard for this, you totally deserve it! I can't wait to see what type of awesome art you'll be creating in the years to come. On one hand, I guess we won't be seeing much of Lola in the next few years, but the knowledge that you'll be working your butt off getting even better at the craft makes it worth it. Best of luck, man!

ImpSyndrome

Wow, congratulations! You're absolutely right, that's an amazing first step into an amazing realm of possibilities. Here's wishing you the very best of luck in your future endeavors!

akabur

Go ahead, by all means. I plan to freak out and completely lose it the moment I cross the threshold of the VanArts main building and not the moment earlier^^

akabur

That's the main idea. More power for me means more entertainment for all of us!

akabur

Don't worry I'll keep you updated on everything of course :)

akabur

I still have a lot of hoops to jump through but as soon as I get the visa and the ticket we shall have the video like that.

akabur

Heh, I wouldn't worry about that. But we'll see how it goes. ^^

akabur

Thank you. Hopefully I'm only getting started and my drawings skills and productivity will only get better from here on.

akabur

Yeah, I know... Still doesn't feel real... Thank you for being around for all this time, Booky.

akabur

Thanks man. Thank you for being a part of this... T___T

akabur

Sure... As soon as I graduate I'm going to teach "Eroge for beginners" or something ^_^

akabur

Thank you for giving a damn about my art and games. You guys rock!

NordicWolf

Congratulations!! This is awesome news, and slightly sad. I feel like we'll be losing you as you grow in your career. :(

akabur

Thanks. I really appreciate your kind words. Yes, I'll have to jump through a lot of bureaucratic hoops, but there is no way around it. I'll just hope for the best and keep on working. With your help guys, I shouldn't worry about anything actually :)

akabur

Heh... The only reason I want this is to increase my power level. There is nothing in the world I would rather be doing then what I am doing right now. Hm... No, that's not true... I would very much like to do Angelina Jolie right now...^^
