It has been 5 years. Five years since I started running this page.
It's time to say goodbye, my friend.
I've been constantly receiving complaints like "Kurama and Hiei are not gay!", "don't draw them in dresses!"
I don't care what they think. I draw what I like. You don't go to see what you don't like.
Most of the time, I get comments with compliments, not uncommonly with a request or two: "Please draw this for me", "May I use your pictures?"
Some of them use the pictures without asking for my permission, without a link to this site and without me knowing.
For the recent two years or so, I refused all requests. In fact, I rarely reply e-mails, regardless whether it's accusating or praising in nature.
I'm so sick and tired with all these.
I no longer feel the slightest happiness even with the most flattering compliments. Not that I'm so difficult to satisfy. It's just meaning nothing. Praise or no praise, I still draw when I want to. I'll never go professional. I have no obligation to anyone in this respect.
If you enjoy Japanese comic, you can certainly find a bunch of comic-writers who are much much better than me. Go to them instead.
I love computer graphics. But paradoxically, I will be a doctor. My grades has been deteriorating ever since I started making this website. I can't go on like this. It's no good to my future patients.
Farewell. If God allows, we might meet again sometime in the future.
