Description The fox-demon, Youko-Kurama and the human Shuichi Minamino. Together they form the being known simply as Kurama.

I see Youko going through phases as far as his attitude towards Shuichi is concerned.... At first, it is contempt at having to be trapped in a human body, but as he grows along with Shuichi, and learns what real love is, he becomes very protective, almost possessive of Shuichi.

...that's how I see it anyway. Let me know your interpretation if you see it differently!

For Shuichi/Kurama, I have been using South Korean actor Lee Jun Ki, who has a very youthful, beautiful face. While searching for images of Lee Jun Ki, I found Japanese actor Kaname Jun, whom I used in reference for Youko. Another beautiful face, but just a little older, little harsher features.

Thank you! It looked unfinished without some sort of background/border.

I love this!! The refs you chose are wonderful and I think they suit them! The colors are also very beautiful, as is your smooth linework.

I've actually seen quite a bit of debate on whether or not the two are separate... I think most people agree the English dub makes them seem as a separate being but the original Japanese one and manga has them as just the same Kurama.
I think them being separate entities was spawned from that and fanon....
Just throwin' in my two cents on that subject. XD

Thank you very much!

Yeah, I think what I refer to as "Kurama" functions as one being, with both Youko and Shuichi being in control together...and depending on what emotions/motivations/situations Kurama goes through, Youko or Shuichi has more control. I dunno, lol.
