Thanks! I'd really love it if it were true! If only there were more clear pictures. ^^

Can I fave this 1000 times? I always had a thing for Shino but... his new hairstyle plus your style is just ;///v///;

So sweet! Nice, soft colors and a peaceful atmosphere in the lazy summertime... Akamaru must be one happy old dog right now
Random note, but I just love Shino idly letting bugs crawl on his hand. I don't know why -- it makes perfect sense, but it's a detail of an otherwise largely 'ordinary' scene that would bewilder anyone besides a Naruto fan, you know? Ah -- maybe what I like about it is the combination of being relatable (the summertime theme) and still distinguishing the subject matter! ...I'm not entirely sure where I'm even coming from, here, but basically, it's a nice touch ^^
Wait, Shino has dreads in the epilogue chap? I'm not sure how I missed it/how I interpreted it, but I can't remember what his hair looked like *runs off to look again*
Haha anyway, great work!

I totally get what you mean. It's a really loving gesture, that's usually reserved for people with a fondness for more fluffy pets with less legs. So in that sense it's kind of alienating for anyone who's not that familiar with Naruto and probably more specifically, for people who don't particularly like Shino, because I'm sure plenty of Naruto fans still shiver at the thought.
I also love to depict him like that, because people usually see him as someone cold, emotionless - for example, I did an art meme on tumblr a while back, and someone requested Shino with 3 expressions and they thought that would be a challenge for me "because, does Shino even have 3 expressions?" and I was like, "yes he bloody has and they look very good on him!" - so it's strange and nice to see this soft side of him.
And you know, I can't really be sure if he has dreads in chapter 700 because there are two drawings of him: one very small and distant, in which his hair is just a black little blob, and the other where the back of his head is covered by a text balloon, but in which he seems to wear a sort of stringy bun. While I didn't like his space outfit at all, I immediately thought "Wait, are those dreads?? Could Shino have dreads?? I.. I love it!!"

I'm sad it's so unclear in the manga, but it'd be fantastic if he really has dreadlocks wah.. I'm generally not so fond of dreadlocks, but somehow it just works so well with Shino!

Ah this is so sweet! I just love the sunny atmosphere, it really feels like summer. There is this sun-filled laziness about the whole scene. ^^ And I really like Shino in this version.
