Meet Akari and Asao Shimazu - my character's mom and dad ^^



Akari was a kitty at first but I played around the character creator a little and I thought this particular short hairstyle looked super cute! I thought that could be her look after she disguised herself to be with Asao inside the Shimazu clan even though it was forbidden for her due to being a shrine maiden, thus not really mortal in the first place... (tfw your side characters have more lore than your main character already...)




As for Asao, he was heavily inspired by Cor Leonis from FFXV... I think the eyeshape isn't as common which I liked even though they tend to look so similar to the extremely overused highlander archetype...
