Anecdote.
When I was offered to draw illustration for the wall of Pride House Tokyo 2019, I first thought to draw the image what some figures of beefy guys are locked together. But when I started to do rough drawing of it, I thought that it was ‘too much gay’. I liked the homoerotic tastes of the sketch, but there were no LBTQ elements. It did not fit the concept of LGBTQ pride house, diversity.
So I threw away the first idea, and did another drawing what you see now. There are three men and three women on the drawing, but I didn’t fix each sexual orientations and gender identities. Also I avoid to specific there skin colors.
My messages about diversity and LGBTQ pride are all included in the colors of their uniforms. And other things, you can imagine anything about them what you want.

I started my Pixiv FANBOX since September 2019


Gay magazines were gone, Gay/BL hybrid comic magazines were gone… I lost all commercial platforms to publish my gay erotic works for last few years. So I started my Pixiv FANBOX on this September.
It’s a crowdfunding membership platform like Patreon. I’m going to to run a subscription content service and you can be a supporter.
I already uploaded the first reward for the subscribers.
