I'd say it's def between either Bloominoko—

—or Goku!!!

Unpopular opinion but goku tsuchinoko is a cutie and I love him ::((((( and OFC BLOOMINOKO? He's just like. Prettier noko, and I LOVE heart motifs so so sooo much!!

got a tad bit silly and decided “you know what? I’m going to use this template (WHICH I FORGOT THE LINK TO. IM SORRY.) and added my favorite yo-kais to it!” but I only know most of my yo-kais from the western releases for the games (I just found out about that tiger girl in the mysterious tribe that’s in yo-kai watch busters 2 and I LOVE HER?? Girlboss. <3)

Asked for some yokai fusions on reddit, this is the first batch

L-R: Frostysol, Nonoko, Venyan, Lord Lie-in, Slimatina, Whisbuzz

Some thoughts on these designs under the cut

Yayyyyyy thoughts on these because I like talking, esp about my creative process

Frostysol: I WILL SAY RIGHT NOW I KNOW I FUCKED UP THE KOSODE MASSIVELY, IT DOESN’T HAVE SLEEVES & IT’S TOO BIG….. I literally only had two ideas for this desgin, one was inspired by the yuki onna segment's backgrounds from Kwaidan & the other was inspired by the spirits from Kuro Neko. The eyes in the backgrounds of yuki onna were so striking & I had just watched the movie recently so it was still fresh in my mind. I knew I wanted her to be closer to a real yuki onna rather than just a cute snow girl spirit. And in that regard Kuro Neko helped with that. I guess subconsciously I wanted her to give off vibes of an unsuspecting girl who kills you & turns out to be a yokai. I thought a kosode would make more sense historically than a random cape, but also idk if young girls wore kosode like that or if it was just adult women. Had no ideas how to incorporate pallysol so I just used him for little details. He's more prevalent in the design intentionally than physically

Nonoko: Pretty simple what do I say. Uh I thought I could do a clover for the tail rather than a heart like Bloominoko. Wanted to make him even fatter than he is cuz he's Noko x2, also made his spots clover shaped cuz what's more lucky than a four leafed clover? An eight leafed clover! Or two four leafed clovers..... Also gave him double teeth & some little wing shaped clovers on his head kinda like Dudunsparce. This one didn't have a lot of thought go into it, I just kinda did what felt natural

Venyan: The first thing I thought about was what colour to make the fur & what colour to make the hair. I decided on red hair cuz it would pop more with dark blue fur. Also made his face pattern a part of his hair cuz he doesn’t have enough room on his face for it with Venocts bangs. I wanted him to be kind of a shitty little bastard, a real cat kinda cat. A good mix of their personalities y’know. Didn’t have much going on with this design either other than I didn’t want the scarf to be all bulky with the dragons cuz Jibanyan is very squart, so I moved them to the tails. Also just because that looks cooler. Had a hell of a time drawing them, I have experience drawing dragons but I’ve always been bad at drawing them roaring or snarling, they look okay but not great.

Lord Lie-in: Also had a bit of trouble combining these two, makes sense cuz I put this one off for more than a few weeks. Didn’t wanna give him big spiky saiyan hair so he got some stray hairs in the front. Took his face framing bangs & tied them up cuz I always like that look (They’re two different pieces tied individually then tied together, so there’s two mini ponytails instead of one. Also had to deliberate on the hair colours cuz I knew I wanted him to have white fur. One of my favourites was red hair with light blue ends but I didn’t go with that one cuz his outfit is mostly red. I also DID NOT feel like giving him a whole kimono (mostly for silhouette reasons) so I just gave him Miku-like sleeves. I originally wanted to give him split leg hakama but when looking at reference I remembered “Oh yeah these things have a lot of pleats & the crotch is pretty low so that’s not great for the silhouette I have in mind.” I gave him harem-esque pants & if you look closely at the upper thigh you can see a little slit in the side of them. Underneath his waist plate & top, the pants tie together like hakama do so I guess I got the hakama in a little bit. I didn’t have any room for his arm warmers so I made them into gloves & gave him the kind of socks that I don’t know what they’re called (Catra has them & I think they’re cool). Also gave him tengu cuz they look cooler than whatever Lie-in Heart has going on. Also cuz it makes him more like “Woah what a bold guy/character!!” And don’t ask how the sword fits in that sheath, idk magic or something he’s the king of the yokai he can do whatever he wants

Slimatina (or Frostymander): Again not much going on here it’s pretty simple. Gave the lower body muscles cuz I noticed the lower body of Slimamander kind of looked like a chest & also just cuz that makes it more creepy. I gave the main body/head some hair clips resembling the patterns on the bulbs of the other heads. Also made the openings in the head look more like a woman’s mouth cuz again, makes it creepy, but also I just thought it would fit more with the Frostina part. Also gave the main heads head eyelashes that look like the openings on the other heads. Decided to give her a cape this time cuz I’m not fuckin around with another kosode. I don’t know if it comes off in the piece but I wanted her cape to be flying up like she just summoned a harsh wind. Last thing is I gave her an eye ornament on her obi & a specially tied obijime cuz I saw one tied like that on google & I thought it looked cute

Whisbuzz: YET AGAIN SAY IT WITH ME! NOT! MUCH! GOING! ON!!!!!! Uhh gave him a frown cuz he’s depressed or whatever, made the top of his hood look like Whispers…… ahoge???? Made his wings wispy on the ends. That’s about it. Fun fact before I drew that one I had another one but I scrapped it because it looked too much like a sperm cell :]

4.pandanoko (mixed allegory, hard to get :( )

5.noko (classic)

6.Starry noko (SUPER hard to get, whyyyyy)

9. Goku Tsuchinoko (yasssssss plant monster, hands feel a lil outa place, 6.5/10)

[myloh]

Yahoo Myloh!! ^^ say u like ykw yea? Who's your favorite yo-kai and what's your favorite tribe? :3

That’s a tough one honestly 🤔 (pun-intended-)

But I think I’d settle for the Mikado tribe in YW4, and the Slippery tribe in YW1-YW3

As for my favorite yo-kai of all time,

I think Bloominoko would be my first choice, if I don’t pick the story relevant ones 😅

[verdantachillean]

Bloominoko, ADORABLE, amazing color pallet and amazing support

It’s charms buff all stats, with an ability that gives you that MONEY MONEY MONEY, and they have a soultimate that heals

It’s colors are a PERFECT combination of pink and light green that I don’t think I see very often, and the flower is a nice progression from Noko’s clover

The only thing missing? Noko sometimes has a dapper lil bow, GIVE BLOOMINOKO A BOW PLS PLS I BEG,

I always enjoyed searching for the Tear of Joy in YKW1 to try to evolve noko,

I definitely prefer the games, but the show has a lot more iconic moments, like robot yaoi, or Pandanoko being a mixed allegory, which I feel is a lil rare in media (it’s mixed like me), and that’s why pandanoko is a definite honorable mention, buuuuuut bro is way too hard to get lol

CALLING ALL YO KAI WATCH FANS

who's ur fav character of all time? It can because of their appearance, abilities, backstories, anything

besides komasan, i like mermadonna or mermother. I JUST LOVE ME SOME PRETTY FISH LADIES🤩

also side debate: the games or the show/movies???
