Hear, ye! Hear, ye! OUR FIRST SUIKODEN DAY 2025 PROJECT!

In celebration of the Suikoden 1 & 2 Remaster, we would like to unite everyone through song by singing together the iconic ending theme song to Suikoden 2, “La Passione Commuove La Storia”. We are now looking for an army of Stars of Destiny to sing the chorus with us!

That said, we want everyone to join us in singing the chorus. Let’s show them the power of the Stars!

How do you apply?

1. Listen to the original song & learn how to sing the chorus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9f1AqVEubI

2. Listen to our version & learn when the chorus comes in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XACiMkfiCS0

3. When you’re ready, record yourself singing the chorus. Make sure it's a clean with just your voice.

4. If you want to kick it up a notch, send us a video of yourself! (in cosplay, surrounded by nice scenery, emoting...your choice!)

5. Send audio/video files to us and we will turn it into a music video! Please do so by filing in the Google Form: https://forms.gle/zpTsupqtwj7EXCk66

You can either send your audio/video submission through the Google Form; Alternatively, you can do it through Casting Call Club: https://www.castingcall.club/.../suikoden-day-2025-la...

Lyrics to the song can be found here: https://suikoden.fandom.com/.../La_Passione_Commuove_La...

In the lyrics, you will find 3 portions. The last part (chorus) is the portion that is sung together: La passione commuove la storia La sabbia del tempo scorre I bambini giocano sulle colline Un giorno il dolore finira

Most importantly, have fun! We look forward to hearing your wonderful submissions!

Which oc would be easiest to kill

AHSGAHGSEHAS 😭😭 he is more likely to kill himself on accident tbh

[sweetvixen1996]

The funny thing about my idea for a Sayuki fanfic were the Sanzo Party meets their previous lives is that, while I think Hakkai and Gojyo would get along pretty well with Tenpou and Kenren, it would take roughly 5 minutes for Konzen and Sanzo to try to kill each other.

Most of their arguments are about who gets custody of Goku, even if neither would admit it.

DTIYS of an illustration by Kazuya Minekura. Needed a subject that I wanted to experiment with workflow and brushes. Plus, meditating over old fandom is so therapeutic.

TL;DR: Life is short. Just go ahead and write your story and draw your art. If you want to do something with your art, know that it won't be easy but it's possible as long as you keep learning, make good connections, and don't stop.

(Reflection of current art journey under read more)

This is of one of my favorite illustrations by Kazuya Minekura. If there's one big, major influence in my art journey, it's the creator of Gensomaden Saiyuki. I was maybe in 5th grade when I discovered the manga, which coincided with me seeing the anime on cable. A retelling of a Chinese folktale with a Japanese perspective: this was so appealing to me from harmonizing different cultures into one story, to beautiful men getting mixed with supernatural horror. This may as well have been my queer awakening then.

There was so much to be introspective about while drawing this… like how 6th grade me couldn't comprehend why people treated gay/queer as different from straight, my love for Asian folklore and mythology, and this burning desire to draw anything and everything. It only seemed appropriate that I'd gravitate towards Minekura as an art idol. And despite people's criticism for it, this is a foundation that I have no regrets in.

I remembered how much I wanted to emulate Minekura when I was younger. It's such a striking style! Unfortunately, my art journey has seen a lot of stop-and-go to the point I couldn't comprehend the progress made. There have been times where I just resented my art because I felt directionless with my creativity. Thanks to Ismaire and some art friends, though, I'm actually happy lately to see how much my "art style" evolved to where it is today.

[***]

While I was finishing up the rendering, I couldn't help wondering how Ms. Minekura had been doing since I last read Saiyuki Reload Vol. 4. Was she even still around? What about her other works, like Wild Adapter? I knew that she had a blog, but whenever I took a look at it in the past, the updates were sporadic then that it may as well have been a dead blog.

Then, after one more bout of curiosity, I came across her twitter/X profile.

It was both relieving and energizing to see so many works that I didn't know she had drawn then! I was so happy to see she seems to be thriving with her works, but I was surprised to see that she was still contending with many health problems. I had to pause in my scrolling through her profile at one point. How she could sound so positive and cheerful while she's dealing with Cushing's syndrome now? Last I heard anything major, she was about to undergo surgery for a tumor on her jaw -- and I only found out about that update through an online fan news years back o-o;;

I can't assume too much about Minekura's personal life, but with what she was willing to share with her fans online, I have a more nuanced respect for her as an adult creator.

It's so reassuring to see a creator like Minekura continue growing her creativity. I only hope to aspire to her level of good attitude despite IRL hurdles, while having the means to share such a prolific world for everyone else to enjoy.
