It was a great Reki cosplay. I saw her at Anime North 2007.

Her wings are too big.

well, your spoon is too big

And I like it that way, bitch.

>>3
Remember Rakka's "wings-out" scene?

Yeah.

>>6
Well, it's also the fact that her wings turn downward, unlike your standard Haibane art work, where the wings stick straight out. That contributes to their oversized nature.

>>7
True. However, I always thought it was odd that the Haibane walk around with their wings like that...no creature with wings holds its wings out like that. It'd be like holding your arms out all the time.

Remember that they have almost no control over their wings beyond basic twitching, though.

I think you've got all the art books that I know about. Unless you can manage to get your hands on a copy of ABe's contributions to the Gallery of Fantastic Art, Portfolios A and B, in which case you must GIEF.

Oh, but yeah, as for other sources...the next best thing, I think, are his doujinshi.

That's the only Marimite page. The others are a NieA_7 crossover

Crud. I was hoping there were more Marimite pages, and I just didn't have them. :P

>>2
And a Lain crossover

lain is the best :)

Bricks were nearly shat. That's CGI ain't too shabby...

Got any more info on that sweet movie?

>>3
It wont play for me.

You need an account, though.

So, any idea how this was made?

>>8
I think it uses footage from that "Idolmaster" game

>>8
It's made using Idolmaster. Someone made an idol to look like that and then recorded the shows.

>>12
But you're not telling me it isn't allowed! And you'd be a meanie if you did. :'(

Well, there's already one of those boards on iichan. (note that I arbitrarily declare Rakka to be against 4chan global rules 3 and 8)

Also it goes against the whole message more than normal really.

>>14
While I understand where you're coming from, I think it's worth saying that simply because there's a different imageboard dedicated to all manner of girl-girl images doesn't make it wrong to post ABe-related shoujo-ai in this one. There's no reason a shoujo-ai image can't also be an image related to ABe's work. Were I to post an image of Nemu sleeping blissfully, would you tell me to take it to the "Sleepy" imageboard instead? All sorts of fanart gets posted here already without complaint, so why say that we shouldn't post shoujo-ai fanart in particular? Arguing your personal taste is one thing, but you're suggesting that Haibane Renmei shoujo-ai shouldn't be posted here on principle. As far as I can tell, though, the only rule regarding the content of images posted on this imageboard is that they must be safe for work and related in some way to ABe. Under that interpretation, I see no reason why non-explicit ABe-related shoujo-ai would be disallowed.

Your other argument, that images of Reki and Rakka being affectionate with each other shouldn't be posted on this imageboard because they go against the whole message of Haibane Renmei, is no more valid than arguing that images of Asuka and Rei being affectionate with each other shouldn't be posted on an Evangelion imageboard because it goes against the whole message of Evangelion. In fact, neither argument is valid because in both cases, whether or not an image contradicts canon material is of no importance in determining whether or not it's suitable for that particular imageboard -- unless, of course, one of the rules states that images must represent canon material. However, no such rule exists here, and again I see no reason why non-explicit ABe-related shoujo-ai would be disallowed.

Well, some of these aren't quite work-safe, also the part where they have sex with each other is against the innocence/non-human part, you know.

The ones that aren't that are okay, I guess, but they're still really weird since they're certainly not canon or something ABe would do. I think he's only sexually attracted to new computers.

>>16
In any case, the amount of ABe-related shoujo-ai seems to be in short supply, so I don't think you need to worry.

>>1

This is beautiful. Really beautiful. Thanks.

>>16 also the part where they have sex with each other is against the innocence/non-human part, you know.

o_ò I'm not ashamed to say that i'm interested in that. After all, i never saw anything explicit about Haibane Renmei, and now the curiosity is killing me.

Definitely noticed some similarities in the character design there, yeah.

And here comes Lain

It is necessary that I post this.

Artists in this thread are Yasunoん (http://yasunon01.sakura.ne.jp/) and R Kampfgruppe (http://www3.famille.ne.jp/~hirobe/Frame01.html).

I've got a bunch of NieA_7 stuff. Watch for the megatorrent in a few weeks.

I lol'd. The artwork is ABe's, without a doubt, but I don't know the source. Anyone else?

Comiket 65
Journal Tokimeki-Shitsumon Bako - 5nd Edition

"Unko-chan"?

Unko menas poop...

ABe's collaborated with another guy called "Kuso-san" (which means "shit," from what little I know of Japanese) on a few doujins, IIRC. They have what I can only assume to be a running gag revolving around shit.

Unko-chan is a recurring ABe character in his work for the Mutekei Fire doujinshi.

Why does Unko remind me of Kaoru Mori?
