Description “Alice didn't think that proved it at all; however, she went on: And how do you know that you're mad?
"To begin with," said the Cat, "a dog's not mad. You grant that?"
"I suppose so" said Alice.
"Well then," the Cat went on,
"you see a dog growls when it's angry, and wags it's tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry.
Therefore I'm mad.”
 - Lewis Carroll: Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass

Mini reflexion:
Finally finished this piece, too. Still experimenting with contemplate colors and I think... I am kind of getting the drill now.
I have to admit that I really enjoy drawing volleyball poses! They are kind of different than the regular ones I do. Though... they are somewhat tricky.
So, after the Oikawa drawing I posted, I thought I should also reveal my second favourite character: Kuroo Tetsurou.


But you know......... This guy..... is the most ambivalent character I have encountered so far. I just can't get over him. Seriously! I fangirl so much when he appears it's ridiculous!!!! Can't wait to see him in Haikyuu!! season 2!

I mean... have you seen his legs??? And his bed hair???? And have you read/listened to his lame sarcasm????!!!!!! Him being a caring captain??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Anyway, I had a little trouble with the wooden floor but hopefully it looks similar to a wooden floor now.....
Also... please notice the title is finally in English again!!


I hope you guys like it! Thank you for viewing!

Ah!! Darely-chan!!! Thank you!!
I've made a horrible mistake on his clothes though... the number 1 and the Nekoma script should have been white...   

Erm.. How do you like his grin? I made it a bit more realistic.

Well, if you didn't notice, I'm relieved!
Guess, you really spot every tiny fluke in your own works....

Aww!! Thank you!! I felt like it was too much but it somehow matched with his sarcastic style.
I don't blame you!! I have had to stop drawing the lineart for a few times because I fangirled too much...

Can I just say that quote is excellent for Kuroo? Because it is, he'd definitely recite it word for word. 

Kuroo is the ironic darling of my heart, tbh. I just love the way he teases everybody, especially Tsukishima. But in the end he does it because he cares lol.

THis pose is fantastic. Those legs and arms are very well placed (and very nicely shaded ). And that floor is so glossy and nice, I really like the colors you chose for his shadow. All in all: 👌

Aww! Thank you so much for reading my artist comment!!
I always have a feeling no one is ever reading it and I am putting too much effort in it
But he does remind you of the Cheshire Cat, no?? I mean not just that grin but also his thinking!

I know what you mean! I could even imagine him being that casually ironic throughout the day. He would just give you that smirk and .... ugh.... I need some air... he is killing me....in a good way

Thank you!! I'm glad you like his anatomy in the drawing!! Are his teeth okay btw?    I got a little unsure about them since Kuroo has a really unique smile.

I always read 'em! I think it's so charming of you to add your own little thoughts to the work you created, plus it's professional and sleek in a way. It gives light to the thought process fo the artist. I say you keep adding them to your posts. It just gives them that little unique touch.

He definitely does look like theCheshire Cat. All he's missing are the stripes, hahaha. He's so handsome, isn't he? I like him the most when's he's super sweet and caring, then everyone plays it off as him wanting attention or something, but it is, in fact, the real Kuro coming through 

Y'know I think his teeth are pretty nice! I've never really drawn teeth like that, with so much detail, but I've tried really hard a few times and Iknow how difficult it can be. Kudos, my friend. They're perfect. (Plus Kuro looks great with anything, so don't feel unsure when you draw him haha)

Aww! Thank you! That's really encouraging! I will be more confident in adding the artist comments in the future!

Indeed! Hmm... How about him wearing a striped shirt? That would have the same effect, no?
He's a dream! I couldn't agree more with you! You could say, he is very misunderstood - hence his nickname "Scheming Captain", as well - but in reality he just wants to be caressed and loved.

Thank you! I actually love drawing teeth more realistically but you can't pull that off too often since realistic teeth add sometimes either a more dark/gore or a more sarcastic/stylized atmosphere to a picture. But I'm glad you like him that way!

Btw, I hope you don't mind me asking, but when did you start watching/reading Haikyuu!! ?

I really want Kuroo to show up more in the anime once it starts again in October. I'd be so happy just seeing him stand around, you've no idea oh my goodness.

Well I entered the fandom when the anime began to air last summer, I think it was every Thursday it aired... or every Saturday/Sunday but I never missed one! Then I read the manga but I stopped after a while, the black and white sequence is pretty confusing for me... I still am super active in the tumblr fandom, writing little drabbles and looking at fan art

I know what you mean! I can't wait for all those Bokuto-Kuroo interactions, as well!

Oh, I see! Then I guess you are more than eager to await the second season.
Are you planning to watch the Haikyuu!! movie, as well?

You are writing drabbles?! Dear Lord, I am so hooked on reading drabbles of sports animes!
If it is not too much to ask... could you please link your blog?

MissPinku In reply to ValkyrjaPride [2015-07-03 15:14:44 +0000 UTC]

Y'know, I didn't fined out about the movie until yesterday when people flooded my inbox screaming about it and I honestly cannot wait. Do you know what it'll be about? It's supposed to air today But I do plan on watching it!!!

Then boy you've come to the right person for drabbles. I live for them. I can link you to some good ones. I really like rare ships so I read up on them whenever I can.

Heres my blog: su-majestad.tumblr.com/
My writing is presented on one of the links on the dots, do remember, haha

Really? Wow! You had the sheerest luck there!!
If I remember it right it will be a summary about the current episodes - but hopefully with a lot of flowing animation!!
I can't wait to watch it!! It's such a good preparation for the anime!

Throw the trash at me!! I could spend days reading drabbles!!
Btw, when did you start writing drabbles?

Thank you for the link!! I will make sure to dig myself through every passage!!

Oh my goodness that sounds like something I want to watch!! I hope the fans sub it soon, I can't wait.....

archiveofourown.org/series/193…  check this series out. It contains nothing but rarepairs but I swear they are so well written it's almost as if it's canon. there's buildup and they get along and it's not just something that springs up on 'em. I read them all.... they're all so sweet.

I've been writing since I was like, twelve, but I stopped when I was around fourteen because someone left a comment that was discouraging and it killed my spirits. But when I turned sixteen I went back into writing and that's what I would have as my answer. These drabbles came to me at 16.

Hahaha, have fun!

Well, I am sure it will be nice to watch. Especially before the anime continues with season 02.

Thank you so much for the link!!!! I'm so thrilled to start reading all these pairings!!!!

Oh, I see! I know how that feels... People can really take your motivation with just a single comment... But I am happy for you that you found your way back to the world of writers! Please keep up!! Your work is more than amazing!!

Is there a pairing in Haikyuu! you especially like, btw?

MissPinku In reply to ValkyrjaPride [2015-07-18 19:44:28 +0000 UTC]

Please tell me which pairing you liked the most. The good thing about that author I sent you is they make you ship it, like you'll fall so in love with the story you end up falling in love with the ship too haha

So far I've devoted myself (lol that sounds so dramatic), to Nishinoya and Hinata together, because they're both bright and sunny shorties. But recently I've really liked Kiyoko and Kageyama together. They'd be such a power couple, they're both so pretty. Together they'd be unstoppable!!
