Description Ah, so this is the award base for the Best Oneshot Award at Feudal Association. It's one of the most recent manga chapters, Chapter 465, where Naraku kills off Kikyou for good, and she dies in Inuyasha's arms. He gives her his farewell kiss before she fades away forever. I chose to draw the moment inbetween their kiss as a 'one shot' because Inuyasha is never going to see her again, and this is his last chance to tell her how he feels.
Awww...I'm a sucker for tragic romance!

Anyway, this was done in Photoshop CS. It took me almost the entire day back and forth at work.

I was never a fan of Kikyou and Inu-Yasha (and I still ain't. nevah ._.) but I can make an expection once in a while, just because I love your art.
This is really pretty ^-^ I wasn't that sad when she died (again) because I knew she had to go eventually, since even she herself said that the dead were not meant to walk across the world of the living (not just saying that because I don't like her)
But I still like the pic. :3

Can you imagine? Kappei Yamaguchi and Noriko Hidaka?

Pure seiyuu power!

I really do miss Kikyou. *sigh*

Lovely pic, darling. The colors are so soft and Inuyasha's expression is so sad.

Beautiful job! I love the colors. Poor InuYasha... have you read the latest chapter? With him being all sympathetic for Kagome? He's come so far since the beginning of the series...

Who isn't a sucker for tragic romance? It's only right after all after what the two of them have been through together.

It looks sweet. I like the soft pastell colours.
It reinforces the impression of fading away.

Great job here, Quirky! I love the misty look and the swirls of energy as Kikyou is about to dissolve. You really captured that moment between them.
