lol, so that's the bondage model scene you mentioned before?

I was waiting for this! And another scene much later.

Edit: Whose idea was this anyway? I remember someone needing a bondage model for a drawing?

... You guys... How, exactly, did you represent America to Hitoshi?

With STYLE!

Awesomely.

Who mentioned what before, now?

Anyway...

If they'd been doing this naked, I think I really would've been shocked, but since they were dressed, the impression I got was something like, "Oh, looks like they're doing something fun!" The person was tied up pretty tightly, though, y'know?

Reader-added quotes include "What's starting up here?"

The poll has us ponder this:

Now, who'd be good at tying up people?
• Yamame-san
• Yuukarin
• Yukarin
• Tewi
• Sanae-sama

hahaha epic

That was me! UncertainKitten and I decided it'd be rad if I actually used a live model for an artstream. You can watch it at http://www.livestream.com/maullart/video?clipId=pla_9ece47c7-731a-4f0e-b614-8a126baeb2e6&utm_source=lslibrary&utm_medium=ui-thumb%22 (you can hear Hitoshi come in at 14:30)

I really want to see how this looked like in real life.
Edit: Thanks Maullar

Why am I not surprised?

it was MaullarMaullar, right at first strip of America arc :3

Back on topic, Mizuki Hitoshi stopped by my art stream in the hotel. While we were drawing a bondage model. He was very amused.

You know, I really have to wonder what kind of impression I gave ^-^;

So, the impression of America we're going to be giving all the Japanese people reading Hitoshi's strip is that we're all MaullerMauller dressing up like Alice with a beard...

oh boy...

That's the impression of a free country!

Seriously, though, I envy you guys. I keep browsing pics of cons and I see a lot of Brouhous having fun.

Here it's completely unaceptable black/slight overweight/man/whatever to dress up as a Touhou (or any other series, really), no matter if they're serious or not.

For the record, were you the one that tied UK up or was it someone else? *passes the mic*

Nyangelica did the tying, I did the drawing. I wouldn't be surprised if the two of us have been merged into Seiga, though.

BTW, I love how Yoshika-chan herself is not bothered at all and keeps grinning at 4th panel :3

To be fair I am pretty sure that is exactly what I did. I think I even said "Hi Mizuki-san!"

Yeah, I heard that "HI~!" on the livestream, it cracked me up :3

I can only imagine the look on Mizuki-san's face. If I didn't know about UK's appreciation for bondage, I'd have been completely shocked at that scene, too. (I didn't actually get to see it.) We really gave Mizuki-san quite the impression about Otaku in America, didn't we?

Don't worry, Mizuki-san. I understand how you felt.

Now cry and scream yoshika! Beg for your precious life with tears in your eyes! *Looks up* Oh hey Kogasa wanna join us.

Oh, Kogasa-san... Never mind us - just tidying up the last person who accepted our shady invitation!

Note: Everybody here is a man in their 20s.

Really? None of them are in their 30s yet?

I kind of want to know what Sanae-Wife thinks about how she could have been on this trip AFTER finding out about some of these events...

Whoever said that an otaku's life wasn't exiting, really wasn't paying attention

beaver23456 said:

I need to correct that statement. At least Yoshika is a girl.

beaver23456 said:

Nyangelica/Seiga is a woman.

Also, now that I look closer, nice attention to detail with the rope 'tail' she's working on!

He doesn't mean this as fact. It's a callback to one of Warugaki's report mangas (post #923013).

You're replying to a 10-year old comment. I even doubt that video is still around unless someone did it in youtube or so.

mmm, I doubt anyone in here uploaded the video to YouTube, though.... wish they did, to be honest.
