【大海原 AU:暗黒星の冠】 イダ竜
【WATGBS AU: COTDS】 IdaTatsu
Idate and Tatsumiya 🖤🤍❤️💙
WATGBS AU: COTDS
WATGBS AU: COTDS is an Idate and IdaTatsu centric AU between me and my friends 💞 COTDS stands for Crown of the Dark Stars 👑💫 Its other name is Ankokusei no Kanmuri.
I just wanted to post some rough sketches/WIPs of my magical oarfish wife, and my homicidal oreo, my cat cot son 🤗 Magical oarfish MILF x Buff chaotic demon DILF.
I'm planning to give Tatsumiya matching Star and Moon earrings to match with Idate's Black Sun and Star ones...
Read more under the cut if you're interested in our IdaTatsu AU!
Our WATGBS AU is named Crown of the Dark Stars (暗黒星の冠, Ankokusei no Kanmuri) 💫👑 It's an AU with its own story, separate from the original WATGBS.
WATGBS AU: COTDS is an Idate and IdaTatsu centric AU between me and my friends 💞 COTDS stands for Crown of the Dark Stars 👑💫 Its other name is Ankokusei no Kanmuri.
WATGBS AU: COTDS, which stands for Crown of the Dark Stars, or Ankokusei no Kanmuri, is an Idate centric and IdaTatsu AU between me and my friends that's a complete revamp and rewrite of WATGBS.
WATGBS AU: COTDS is an AU between me and my friends! We all contribute to it whenever we have time to draw and write for it 😌🙏
Summary of WATGBS AU: COTDS would literally just be: (Yoinks characters and the settings, makes an original story)
It's just us writing our own stories and exploring our ideas with the characters, mainly focused on him and his dynamics with other charas. We made up our own lore and revamped the characters' writing and designs. It's just us playing with our revamped and rewritten blorbo OCs in our sandbox 💞
WATGBS AU: COTDS is centered around Idate, a chaotic evil demon orca man who originally wanted to unleash the apocalypse, but became too mellow after meeting Tatsumiya.
It's an Idate centric AU that heavily focuses on IdaTatsu (Idate/Tatsumiya), and the platonic familial dynamic between the orca brothers, Idate and his older twin brother, Takama. And it has a heavier emphasis on fantasy elements. And we have our own OCs we created for it too, like our IdaTatsu fankids 🤭
Idate: The Star Eater and Grand Demon
Idate (伊達 (イダテ)) is the evil protagonist of WATGBS AU: COTDS 🖤🤍💙 He is Tatsumiya's husband and Takama's younger twin brother.
Idate is the "Star Eater" and Lord of the Underworld. Idate drinks peoples' blood and eats their souls as nourishment. He and his older twin brothers are Demons. They're secretly Grand Demons (大魔王, Dai Maou), who have much more powerful magic than other Demons. They originally lived in Iceberg Isle, but Idate ends up convincing Takama to move to the Blue Sea Kingdom with him so he can live with Tatsumiya.
He's a chaotic evil demon orca and the evil protag of our AU, which makes him very fun for me to write! 🐬💞 I love writing for IdaTatsu and the others, and coming up with and adding onto each everyones' ideas whenever we discuss.
He's extremely chaotic and the world's most insufferable wifeguy /endearing that falls devastatingly in love with and eventually gets married to Tatsumiya. They feel drawn to each other, someone who's the complete opposite of the other, someone who represents what the other has never known, and tries to figure each other out.
Idate's character theme is "Void" 🖤
Idate eating and stealing souls also plays up to his whole void theme.
He's the Lord of Space and the Underworld, whose void world that contains the dead souls of all the people he ate for power.
Idate's powers represent the concept of "Void."
Idate can access a different dimension (the void between worlds), to create darkness and call it from within himself. Infinite darkness. An infinite void. Idate can create and access voids, and can call upon and manipulate darkness.
Idate's leitmotif is the Black Sun. His void is a black hole.
Idate can make makeshift weapons from dark energy. It's a black demon aura that can be controlled at will and slash into things.
Stardust is the source of all magic in the sea in our AU. Idate can make makeshift weapons from dark energy (black stardust).
Tatsumiya: The Dragon Flower and Grand Sorcerer of the Blue Sea
Tatsumiya (竜宮) is the Grand Sorcerer of the Blue Sea Kingdom 🤍❤️ She's the Lord of Creation, and Idate's wife. And also my wifey wife wife <3 🥰😘 She's a magical oarfish that serves the Blue Sea Kingdom's Princess, Lucinda, our Blue Sea Princess (BSP) OC. Her specialties are healing and star magic. 🌠
She's known as the Dragon Flower (龍花, Ryuuka) because her reputation with the sword spread across the Blue Sea. She has soul restoration and soothing properties with her powers to calm souls.
Tatsumiya is the Messenger/Aide to the Blue Sea Kingdom's Princess 💞 Her title is Grand Sorcerer (大魔導士, Dai-Madoushi). In our WATGBS AU, she took on the role after Meikai's disappearance.
Tatsumiya's leitmotif is the Moon.
As the complete opposite of Idate, her main powers are controlling flowing water, star magic (creation magic), and healing. Her royal duties as the Blue Sea's Messenger, are similar to a shrine maiden's.
Tatsumiya is so wifey to me 🤭
In WATGBS AU: COTDS, she is Idate's wife!
IdaTatsu: The Two Messengers, the Sun and the Moon
Tatsumiya is the Blue Sea Kingdom's Grand Sorcerer. Idate is one of the Grand Demons that came from elsewhere. The two Messengers of their opposing Gods.
Idate and Tatsumiya are opposites in terms of their powers, personalities, and roles. Both Idate and Tatsu are Messengers of their opposing "Gods" and queens. Our own OCs, Algol and Lucinda, are the Red Sea Princess (BSP) and Blue Sea Princess (BSP) respectively.
Tatsumiya, one of the brightest stars in the sea, and Idate the Star Eater 💞
WATGBS AU: COTDS' headcanon versions of the characters' designs
In our WATGBS AU's revamped versions of the charas (our headcanon designs), Idate is buff and has scars.
He wears blue eyeliner, and black sun and star earrings to match with Tatsumiya's red eyeliner and star and moon earrings 🌠☀️🌕
(I'll add Tatsu's earrings in the future!)
Idate wears blue eyeliner, which is the same as Tatsumiya's favourite colour, ultramarine blue (群青色, gunjyou iro) 💙
At first this was coincidental, I added it to his design cuz I thought he looked nice with eyeliner and so it'd have great visual contrast with Tatsu's design, but then I found out that Tatsu's favourite colour was ultramarine blue. So the colour I chose for Idate's eyeliner coincidentally, ended up being the same as Tatsu's fave colour…
Unintentional big brain play from me 😌
I want to give them matching couple eyeliner and earrings! Idate wears black sun and star earrings, and Tatsu wears moon and star ones ☀️🌙🌠
Ofc these are still WIPs, so I'm planning to add them eventually.
IdaTatsu are the Sun/Moon, Yin/Yang, Light/Darkness themed couple in our AU <3 The Black Sun and the Moon ☀️🖤🌙
IdaTatsu's leitmotifs have a lot of narrative significance in COTDS, which ties back to our AU's central themes 🙏 I've given a lot of focus to their relationship ☺️
Name Meanings
Idate (伊達) 伊達 = Meaning “elegance; gallantry; sophistication; showy; having style”, or “putting on airs; showing off”
I chose the kanji reading Idate (伊達) cuz both meanings fit him very well! 🖤🤗
Idate (伊達) is my headcanon kanji reading of Idate's name. Since I wanted to pick a reading with a fitting name meaning for him!
My son. My homicidal oreo… 🐬 Oreorcat
I'll eventually turn these WIPs into concept art reference sheets! Though I might format them differently.
Tatsumiya (竜宮) 竜宮 = Meaning “Dragon Palace”
It's an alternate reading of Ryuuguu 🐉🏯 The Undersea Dragon Palace from the story of Urashima Tarou in Japanese folklore.
It comes from 竜宮の使い (Ryuuguu no tsukai), a giant deep-sea oarfish, known as "The Messenger/Envoy of the Undersea God's Palace" which is exactly what Tatsumiya represents as a character!
I chose kanji readings of Idate and his older twin brother Takama's names, as well for our other OCs in WATGBS AU: COTDS, like our IdaTatsu fankids. I'm excited to show them in the future 🤗💞

【WATGBS AU】 IdaTatsu Doodles (NSFW)
IdaTatsu (NSFW) doodles I did back in 2023
Just gonna post the batches of doodles cuz I don't think I ever posted these here
I'll post the ones I'm still fine with. Most of my IdaTatsu doodles are SFW, I just doodled these on the side
My art style improved a lot since. Some of the expressions on these are still nice... I just need to redraw them at some point
Tatsumiya my beloved 🥰🥺💗 My wife 💞💘✨ MY OARFISH WIFEY YIPPEE!!!
The 1st one's more recent (the kissy one is a redraw from 2023) so it looks the best out of this batch
You can tell these are old cuz I improved a lot overtime on how I draw their facial features, overall silhouettes, shapes, hair and accessories, etc., overtime. Like, I finalized the shapes for drawing their hair in my most recent doodles of IdaTatsu
Tatsumiya's oarfish antennae start curling into hearts when she gets all blushy and embarrassed. They emote to match with her expressions whenever she's happy, shocked, sad (they start drooping), etc.
Like, I draw Idate's hair a lot better now
I should've drawn more rings of bite marks cuz of Idate's sharp pointy orca teeth.
TATSUMIYA YAYYYYY!!! GAY URGE RISING
Idate sucks on Tatsumiya's boobs. Boobies. Titties. In Mouth.
I'm gonna crop some of these. Cuz I know I can redraw these better
Tatsu's expressions are SOOOO cute
Art idea: Tatsumiya bites onto a red string.
Idate: (-> Ascending)
Tatsumiya's embarrassed blushy expressions fuels my gay side. Yippee!!!

And I also like tons of other things as well and have a bunch of side interests! I doodle and ramble a lot about my fave interests! My masc faves are my favourite cat cots. They're going into my cat carrier. The ultimate cat basket. And I love my wifey wife faves <3 I have the most obvious and predictable tastes in the world.
You can check out the extra underneath the cut if you wanna see what characters classify as sen-core meow meow mfs.
Extra:
Here are my favourite characters compiled!
I finally did it! It's Sen's cat carrier of meow meow mf faves and puppies! And also my wifey wife faves 🥰💗✨ The ultimate cat basket, cuz my fave chara taste is predictable 😌🤸
I'm very attached to the WATGBS AU faves we have for our WATGBS AU :) I used my edits of the characters for this.
My top main faves are all very important and personal characters for me. So I felt like they should all be in the 1st row. Other than my top main characters in the 1st row, the placement is not according to order, just who I thought of first. There’s also many more characters I love!
Also yeah I absolutely did put 5 Magi charas on this list just cuz the cast is so goated in general, I had to. There’s 3 KHR, 3 WATGBS AU, 4 FGO, and 5 Magi charas here omg.
It would've been Sen's meow meow mf/cat carrier but Alibaba is there. Puppy surrounded by cat cots :)
Sen-core and meow meow mfs:
Sen-core and meow meow mfs are identifier terms my friends and I came up with to refer to the character design, personality, and writing tropes that appeal to and cater perfectly to my tastes. My brand in fictional characters! I'm my cats' cheerleader.
I'm passionate about meow meow mf ™️ characters, a very highly specific trope that all of my top main faves fall under. It's the meow meow mf instinct. It's like a radar. My meow meow mf senses are tingling.
How Sen picks favourite characters, or how to be considered sen-core. The Sen-core checklist:
Sen-core femme faves:
A cute/hot adult femme I lovingly chose as my wife, a deeply empathetic :D or ^v^ vibes person who loves their friends and/or the people they care for
Or, they are a hot cunning evil sadist type
Hits the specific sen-core niche of a soft femme chara or a hot cunning evil sadist type. They're cute and hot
Has black and/or white hair or is a redhead
Optional: Has gold eyes
Optional: Is a MILF
Sen-core masc faves:
Hits the specific sen-core niche of a meow meow mf ™️
Usually has black/white hair and/or a black/white monochrome colour scheme
Morally questionable, complex/complicated, or evil. Otherwise, they are too ok with violence and murder
Smug edgy asshole character, sen-core bastard cat, passive aggressively violent or threatens people
They are Type 1 sen-core cool aloof stoic cat >:| or :| or >:)
They are Type 2 sen-core smiley cat :) or :D or ^-^ or >:D
Emotionally repressed, stupid, and/or stunted. Doesn't fully understand human emotion and/or how to express themselves in normal ways
Optional: They're either buff with big tiddies or they're a twink
Optional: GNC, or an ikemen or bishounen type (pretty boy) type
Optional: Has a sad backstory and/or emotional issues they struggle with
Optional: Bloodthirsty. Sadistic, cruel and/or morally questionable or evil person that likes trampling on people
Optional: They are either ace-spec or super horny
Filling them all is so specific yet that includes so many characters of my faves! Basically, if they're cool, commit murder, have emotion issues, like violence, and constantly either :| or ^-^, a smug bastard, and have black and white colours (optional), then they're a meow meow mf!
Thanks for reading! I’m very passionate about my fave meow meow mfs and wifey wife faves! <3

【KHR AU】 XanLena Chibi Commission by Hika ❤️💜🔥🪷
XanLena (Xanxus/Selena) Chibi Icon Commission by Hika (@/onigiwi2namayo)
Hika's Twitter: (X)
Hika's VGen: (X)
In accordance with Hika's Terms of Service (TOS), editing, using, or reposting these arts, in any way, is prohibited without explicit permission from Hika, and me, the commissioner.
Intro
I commissioned Hika to draw my beloved XanLena ❤️💜🔥🪷
Selena is my beloved KHR OC and wife 💜🪷
Her name is Nguyễn Selena, and her Vietnamese name is Nguyễn Nguyệt Vân Liên. Her Viet name, Liên, means "lotus" in Sino-Viet 🪷
She is a Viet NB assassin with a calm and aloof personality, who's reserved and mainly keeps to herself, but cheerful around people she's close to. Her design is NB flag colours 💜🖤🤍💛
She has an interest in gardening (collecting flowers, plants, learning about different types of poisons), and fashion (collecting clothes, including traditional clothes) 💐👗
Xanxus/Selena matching cheebs ❤️💜 The little Xanxus and Selena... I'm SOOOO happy!!!
My friend Snow and I used Hika's XanLena chibi icons as matching PFPs on Discord for a bit 🥰 They're just that cute 💘
Rambles
WAHHHH THE XANLENA CHIBI ICONS ❤️💜🫶 OH MY GOD THEY'RE SO CUTEEE MY BABIES!!! 🥺💗
THEY'RE SO CUTE IN HIKA'S STYLE… REALLY ADORABLE OMG I LOVE THEIR EXPRESSIONS 🥰💞💘🫶
Selena's smiley :D and Xanxus' grumpy pouty >:|
The round lines and shapes... OMGGG ✨ I love the colours too!
I love how Hika drew Selena's eyelashes and underlashes with the dots...
I asked Hika to draw TYL Xanxus' design since I felt like his TYL (Ten Years Later) design would be easier to draw.
Hika originally chose a dark blue BG colour for the both of them, but changed it to yellow and red respectively to make them stand out more!
The blue ones were nice, but omg the final versions Hika went with, do reflect their actual colours better. These fit them better! Matching eye colors (plus it makes their hair stand out from the BG more)
Since Selena and Xanxus are toned with blue/purple in Hika's colours, the new BGs have more visual contrast!
Hika was very accommodating with minor colour edits and revisions as well! 🙏
I wanna commission Hika to draw JuAli and IdaTatsu with my headcanon designs of them in the future 🥰💘✨
My Message
This was the message I left for Hika!
The finished commission arts are wonderful! Selena and Xanxus look so cute in your art style ❤️💜🥺 Really adorable~ I'm very happy with how it turned out!
I love their expressions 🥰🫶 The thick round lines and shapes in your chibi style are great. I love how you draw dot eyelashes in your chibi style!
The colours are amazing! The orange~ish red and blue tones you chose for Xanxus has such nice visual contrast!
I love how the background colours you chose match their eye colours too~ It really brings out their designs' overall colour schemes and hair ❤️💛
Thank you for being very quick and accommodating with colour revisions as well! I look forward to commissioning you again sometime in the future! 🙏 👍
Read more under the cut if you're curious!
Misc Rambles
XanLena doodles by Sen (@/stepswordsen)
I feel like the KHR ani style goes for a much more generic art style, compared to Amano's unique art style.
For Xanxus' late manga design (Rainbow arc Xanxus), Amano improves the shape of his hair and makes it more wavy and easier to draw.
Amano has an amazing art style, and really detailed lineart and inking. She's one of the biggest inspirations for me. Her style was honestly very inspirational for me...
I started drawing everyday as a kid (at 11) BECAUSE of KHR, so KHR is very important and personal to me. I first watched KHR and read the manga at 11.
Amano's style is honestly defining to my style - It shows in the way I draw faces and eyes.
I'm not big on the KHR ani's art style, but I do appreciate what it gave us with the chibi interviews, character songs, etc. It's also cuz of the KHR ani that we (somehow) get endless KHR merch.
I prefer the manga designs, but I prefer the ani's colours for the charas because the KHR ani generally gave the KHR cast more skintone variety (when everyone was pasty in the original manga)
The KHR ani did such a great job by giving the KHR charas more skintone variety... Even pale charas in the KHR ani have different skin tones from each other.
Original vs. My Edit
I headcanon Xanxus to have tanner/warmer skin.
Xanxus with darker skin (olive skin in the KHR ani, and either olive or tan skin in certain KHR ani merch arts), literally just looks better from a character design perspective, imo. That's just facts 📠
His design has much better colour contrast with the ani colours. Like the black and red colours in his design contrast better with darker skin. Also against his blood/wine red eyes. It has more colour harmony and cohesiveness in terms of the colours
Xanxus with pale skin has less cohesiveness in terms of the colours
Xanxus, Yamamoto, and Ryouhei's designs just look so much more boring, pale, imo.
For KHR, I go manga design + ani colours + my own take on the ani colours.
Since I have a tendency to saturate colours with my own arts.
As a personal HC, I think Xanxus has a very mixed ethnicity.
My Italian American friend Feuri said Southern Italy and namely Sicily has a more mixed population.
The ani colours provide a good base for me to work off of for me to improve the colours :3
I do colour edits for fun. I like playing around with colours (editing official arts to see how the colours work together) to help guide my arts. I either do colour edits first or just immediately start picking colours for my arts
...
I usually hand artists a Drive folder filled with XanLena's art refs (including my own doodles) and write some notes on their design details since this makes things easier for the artists I'm commissioning.
Selena is Vietnamese/SEAsian with light tanned skin. She has black hair with a long ponytail that goes down to around the same length as her long front hair strands, and wears a white blouse with frills and a black seam with white buttons. She wears a black pleated skirt with a white line near the ends, and black thigh highs with horizontal white diamonds, and black doll-like shoes.
Since Xanxus wears a brown fluffy accessory, red feathers (that may be dyed red -> orange -> yellow), green strings with red beads, I don't mind if the artists I comm simplify these details.
So, whenever I commission artists, I ask for them to draw my HC versions! I'm very glad that all the artists I've commissioned have been very accommodating! 🙏💖
The XanLena chibis Hika made are being used for Hika's Chibi Icon samples 🥺 Wahhhh
...
The modern remakes of old 90s - 2000s animes have such boring and bland dull colours to me.
I seriously fear that if they ever do a KHR remake or reboot, that they're gonna take away the OG KHR ani's better colours and make everyone look pasty pale (just like in the manga) just for "manga authenticity" and "loyalty to the source material" even though everyone looks so much more boring pasty pale!!! 🧍

【KagePro】 Kuroha and KuroEne Rambles 🖤❤️💙🐍🐇
Kuroha's Manga Route 2 Design
Adjusted the screentones slightly on this doodle!
I did a little experiment yesterday cuz I wanted to test how the screentones would look...
I think this is generally how I'd draw his Manga Route 2 design in comic form (in the future). I'd just refine the sketch and make it neater.
I think that this conveys his black snake scales the best (out of all the ones I've tested) cuz my art style has really thick prominent eyelashes and they need to be visible for it to look good
Me when my friends/mutuals tell me I opened their eyes to the KuroEne agenda and that I was the main reason they considered and thought of the ship in the first place. My propaganda is working /lh /j 👍 😎
The KuroEne vision~~ I'm glad to spread the word about them 💞
Like I've literally had mutuals/friends tell me, "Oh I've never thought of them as a ship! It would be amazing content for a very angsty ship! It's a good way to see it and it would make sense for such an interesting ship like that."
KUROENE TAKEOVER!!! KUROENE WORLD DOMINATION!!! 🖤💙🐍🐇
It's honestly my dream to be able ship doujinshi one day... I feel like creating fan-works like art, writing, are some of the ultimate forms of love languages for your faves and ships.
That's why I wanna be able to improve to the point where I can draw comics comfortably. Like I want to be able to draw fast and have an aesthetically pleasing art style.
I love my art style but I certainly do not draw fast enough for comics and I'd like to improve my art more before I commit to huge art projects like these (ie. comics, doujinshi)
Also my redrawing tendency is just so bad I constantly redraw my own arts 😭 I want to be able to draw quickly and have more aesthetically pleasing art.
Basically, I want my artistic/technical skills to improve first before I do long comics.
I want to be able to create doujinshi (fan-comics) of my fave ships. Cuz I think creating doujins for your fave charas/ships are one of the ultimate forms of love languages.
Also, y'know for ship doujinshi, how they're usually formatted like this? They tend to have the series name, doujinshi number, pairing/ship, author, doujinshi circle name, etc., on the back of the book.
Example:
Kagerou Project: Unofficial Fanbook (No. 1) The Dance of Endless Shadows Kuroha x Ene Stepswordsen
Lowkey wondering how I should format it in the future...
Also I just gave an example for now, cuz the name of my KuroEne AU is still tentative. I came up with a list of ideas in my notes, but I'm still trying to decide...
Like I was thinking about the potential of making a KuroEne ship doujinshi in the future (and of course, I would love to make ship doujinshi of all of my top fave ships, once my art skills improve)
And I was wondering whether I should use Kuroha (クロハ, Kuroha), his popularized fandom nickname, or Black Konoha (黒コノハ, Kuro Konoha), which is the official name... Or Saeru Hebi (冴える蛇, "Clearing Snake")
Potential Ideas:
Kuroha x Ene
Black Konoha x Enomoto Takane
Saeru Hebi x Enomoto Takane
Kuroha x Enomoto Takane
Black Konoha x Ene
Saeru Hebi x Ene
This is a "For the future" scenario I thought of in my head.
I thought of the potential idea of making ship fan-comics and doujinshi for my top fave ships in the future. I would love to create full fledged doujins for them once my technical art skills improve more! 🙏
I imagined how I'd format the book in my head.
Also, I would definitely make all of my ship comics and doujinshi, publically available and free to read for accessibility reasons for fans to enjoy. They’d be web comics/doujins.
My top 5 fave ships are LimGuda, XanLena, IdaTatsu, JuAli, KuroEne. My top ships are all very important and personal to me (just in different ways), so they’re all tied No. 1 for me.
Also, whenever in the future I get to do this (way off in the future), I definitely want to make the X's in the ship name RED for visual purposes.
In merch, Kuroha tends to be referred to by the code "XX" because he's not apart of the Mekakushi Dan.
The Mekakushi Dan (Blindfold Gang) members have a code number based on the order in which they joined the Dan.
It fits Kuroha to be themed with red. I love all the white crosses around him in the Outer Science MV, and how the red Eyes that represents the Mekakushi Dan just shatter one by one around him...
He "gouges out the Eyes" -> Kills the Mekakushi Dan (who are represented by their Eyes)
Symbolically, I like the thematic symbolism of "Marking them out with X's" like crossing out a hit list
I think using any of the first three would be best, but Kuroha x Ene is short and sweet. The other two use the full, official names, though...
Ngl I'm gonna miss typing tags for my fave charas/ships. I always did it on desktop so I had fun doing it
Also I think I did come up with a solution for not being able to use tags? Like I can just reblog my own posts and they won't show up in the search results. Yippee!
I can definitely reblog some of my old posts in the future! I'd like to add onto them eventually <3

Side Blogs
My 18+ side blog is @stepswowdsen
Mainly ramble posts, doodle WIPs, writing idea WIPs (dialogue scripts), and occasionally tagged NSFW, are posted on my side blog.
18+ followers only on my side blog.
I usually cross post rambles from my side blog to my main blog once I get the chance to draw out my writing ideas, so I can pair my rambles with my art!
