It's a really good thing you discovered YT shorts.

[@silveredbullet802]

Yeah, instead of watching a whole stream, we can get his philosophy at bite size chunks with shorts.

[@yozen1995]

"Knowing why you're struggling is more helpful then knowing why you love something."
I've definitely experience that as I've learned to draw more this year. Knowing what I'm unhappy with and comparing my drawings I'm not happy with to ones I am has helped me be able to find why I don't like them.

When i was little i always wanted Yusuke to drop Keiko for the shinigussy.

[@vicentiupredescu7205]

That shinigussy got me acting unwise! 😂

[@johnpaulcross424]

Always loved this design for her, nice to see a good artist doing it justice

[@philithegamer8265]

Why?

[@X_Blake]

She was pretty cool. So was Yusuke's mom and Genkai.

[@SmolTerribleTornado]

Young Genkai a qt

[@Jolynesimpnumber4]

Shizuru and Yukina were pretty cool too

[@X_Blake]

@@Jolynesimpnumber4 Shizuru definitely. Yukina was alright.

[@TheNorthHawk]

Watching you work and listening to your commentary is always a pleasant way to start my day.

[@SlamifiedBuddafied]

Plague out here dropping excellent advice.

[@grimtwin5581]

Botaaaaaaaaan! Brilliant work on her here Plague!

[@igodreamer7096]

I always loved Botan also. I'm very curious about the live action adaptation, since it's a Japanese production we can assume it will be closer to the source material than if was an American take on it.

[@philithegamer8265]

Why do you love Botan?

[@igodreamer7096]

@@philithegamer8265 She is a beautiful airhead and a real friend. The one kind I love make friendships with it. That is all.

[@TheGreatGrr]

Cathedral eyes. Great illustration

[@LookADistarction]

I actually met her voice actor!
Super fun time!

Truly wise words, from start to finish. Subbed

Me on the bottom right lmao
Love it plague. Almost as much as I dread knowing they’re trying to adapt Yu Yu Hakasho

[@zad8027]

These never fail to lift my mood!

[@karameru880]

I really hope you upload this individually as a hour long video. I really like your regular videos and I'm also a person who couldn't give a single damn about youtube shorts
With love, a viewer of 6years

[@user-ot9gp1bw9n]

Your art is so pretty!

[@ArtsyBeau]

Kinda looks like her hair strain is supporting her bossom lol. Really love the style, tho!

[@Sologamermayt]

What do you mean you cant draw her good? She looks amazing in your style!!!!

[@TheDirtbaggrif]

Holy canolli yu yu Hakusho

[@DarkAuraLord]

Love you, Eli. Hope you're well!

[@BuddyAces]

thanks gripes

[@silverroddo1468]

I need a good live-action Gundam, preferably a story told from Seed/Cosmic Era.

[@philithegamer8265]

Wasn't Gundam Seed hated back then?

[@Greendawn-di3dl]

Yknow I never put this together did the yuyuhakasho creator make inuyasha?

[@agrippa2012]

no

[@Greendawn-di3dl]

@@agrippa2012 the art is awfully similar. But I guess alot of 90's anime looked the same.

@@philithegamer8265 my psychology inclines me to agree with the person who agrees with my initial statement.

[@tokusatsunerd]

You should draw Koto next!

[@PleasantLeech]

Very fair points. Ive had this trying to draw dragon ball characters. I'm not too sure how interested i am in spending hours trying to make it work again though. The way the eyes look just go so against my style and the way i draw eyes that I have to fight myself. I'll stick to other things to challenge myself with most likely.

[@MASTERCRAFT938]

Hello there. :D

[@nasenbein6924]

First thought it would be a Holo Botany drawing :(. Still a great picture.

[@Brandonious15987]

Is that her oar or a selfie stick?

[@justblue974]

Love yo yo hashiko

[@Sonicfalcon16]

I used to be diwn bad for botan

[@FanOFTrueHeroes]

So apparently youtube pushes shorts more if you disable notifications for subscribers? Wtf?

[@D.Jay.]

Kurama was actually best girl....well, technically, Genkai was but only in Universe.

[@PleasantlyLee]

Time to get umcomfortable with my art, I always knew this day would come.

[@hailey37926]

gripes, as one of your very few female fans, I assure you we are begging you to see a drawing of a big burly man

[@PlagueOfGripes]

Sometimes I try but there's so little interest... (My Solid Snake one was the latest.)

[@hailey37926]

@@PlagueOfGripes I get it, as an artist myself, I know boobs are all the rage right now

[@LuckyBastard12345]

Genkai is best girl

[@philithegamer8265]

No. Plagues' right.

[@OfKingsXI]

the things I would do to Botan would make Oedipus jealous

I could draw ger better: draws stick figure
