Ao Oni: Vengeance

Character Guide

In volume one the protagonist was a victim of bullying so I drew him meek and delicate. In this volume he showed much strength of the heart, so I’m excited to see his growth in future volumes. Good luck fixing those bugs! That’s a world I’m totally ignorant of as I don’t even dabble in CGI.

His personality is extremely bad, even though there is a reason for it, so I felt a lot of pressure to make his greatest asset, his face, super hot! But I enjoyed the challenge. I also had to be careful not to stray too far from the original art.

He’s the one in the game who presents all kinds of shock to the player. I always look forward to the differences in his movements with each new work. I also personally like characters who don’t hide their emotions. I paid a lot of attention to his design and expressions so as to draw him more comically.

The quick-witted, intellectual, cool protagonist who never falters. The novel adds a lot of detail to his background and I fell even more in love with him. I tried my best to draw him with a Hiroshi-like coolness, while also showing a hidden humanity to him.

In the game she has this impression of being joined to Takuro at the hip, but in the novels we get a glimpse of Mika’s own situation. Her courage really struck a chord with me. Like Takuro, I endeavored to make her super attractive. Shorts and knee socks are too cute.

The serious, smart, comforting-type heroine. In the second volume when she visits Shun’s place, we learn more about her daily life and inner thoughts, which melted my heart. The more I draw her, the more I fall in love. I’m cheering for her and Shun to clear the terrible future that awaits them.

Horrifying creatures. Yet their eyes are so round and cute that I feel oddly charmed by them. When I saw the Blue Ogre Training School (?) a strange laugh came out of me. I will do my best to portray the fear, charm, and shock they instill as honestly as possible.
