The funny thing is Hiei and Kurama should be a couple but since the manga is from the early 90s the autor was afraid of backlash (this is true btw, the autor said it once)
Right?!? I felt that squeak in my SOUL! having strong OTPs is like that! You care SO much about these characters and their lives and you just want them to be happy T∆T
I put this on while I started feeding my cats and tossing breakfast in the microwave and caught Nathan saying that Karina's Neopets were his favorite ship and started laughing when Karina started foaming at the mouth over it. Because mood.
why is no one talking about Julia’s growth like literally her just saying she didn’t want to stress herself out by doing something insane or clever? I’m so happy for her!! like does anyone remember the animation she tried to do in the 30 minute challenge that she beat her self up about cause she could do an animation in the time limit
Oh my God you're right. I'm sorry to say that it's probably because she's doing something even more crazy like making a Drawtective Video game for mobile phones but in Fortran.
Lol, I just now decided to watch it after it this, wish me luck lmao. Been a while since I watched anything yugi-oh related (I mostly just watched random chapters of the og one).
I love what peoples’ fave fictional pairings say about them. For example, from Julia’s drawing I can only infer that she wants to solve crime in Minnesota while Jacob cooks and makes stamp art. Goals honestly
The sheer joy Karina got from seeing Nathan draw her ocs is so real and sweet I cant even deal this is wonderful. Y’all should do an entire episode drawing each others ocs
“I already liked him because he’s, like, you know, gentle and soft spoken. And then he like, ties you up with a rose whip and kills you? And I think that’s a good combination of things.” putting this on my fridge
Nathan: I don't ship Jacob: I don't really ship much Julia: I don't ship any non-cannon pairings Karina: I do ship. I SHIP SO MUCH. I'M NOT NORMAL ABOUT THEM! I WROTE 33K WORDS OF SHIP! I love how this turned out, even though apparently 3/5 of drawfee don't do much shipping lol. Glad David made y'all do this.
This covered such a gamut of the way people feel love towards characters and how those characters love each other? It was maybe even better for this than the episode I would have thought to ask for from them.
Karina's piece is getting me emotional and I don't even know these characters but like-- her love and passion for them is infectious. You did us tumblr fangirls proud :')
Theme: Draw your favourite fictional pairing. Nathan, Jacob, Julia: "i'm not into shipping, but here's a drawing of a couple...." Karina: "BEAST MODE!!!" *starts storyboarding and illustrating an entire comic in amazing detail* An amazing episode.
Julia will go from creating a scene of eldritch horror that defies human comprehension, to a quiet and mundane scene of two people just sitting in their kitchen; Yet both are just as impactful and gorgeously rendered THE RANGE DARLING!!! 👏👏👏
First off, Nathan's growth is amazing. Secondly, that completely deadpan 'Everytime we touch' from Nathan is the funniest f*cking delivery he could have had.
Nathan's speed-draw and process for it somehow both honored and venerated Karina while at the same time calling her out and flogging her in the middle of the Town Square
This entire episode is just chefs kiss. Like first we start with such a wholesome interaction between Karina and Nathan. Then we go to Jacob's beautiful piece of sexc man and his nosebleeding bf. To a genuinely emotional piece of such a wholesome couple that I literally knew nothing about beforehand. Then to end it on Karina's equivalent of "iS tHaT bLeNdeR??" moment, because she practically did 12 speed draws. Plus the fact the entire drawing tells a story of two guys traveling around the world together is so wholesome. Like this episode was so beautiful and just sweet, which makes this such a perfect Valentine's day episode
Honestly, even if Merobiba didn't quite convince Nathan, he'll have a _hard_ time not acknowledging that THIS is the banger episode he was hoping for. 100% perfect from beginning to end; instant classic. The work, the commentary, the jokes: It's absolutely golden.
41:00 Jacob saying "people are going to have emotions about this" felt like both a callout and an acknowledgement of ALL THE EMOTIONS i feel about Karina's masterpiece.
I definitely came to this episode ready for Karina to be center stage, but Julia's homey drawing and explanation about a quiet, comfortable love has me emotional on a valentine's day afternoon 🥲

I love karina going absolutely feral about her OTP from early teenage years, it's the biggest mood. having an OTP lurking for a decade plus is a specific feeling and the resulting image is amazing and sums up those feelings well
Julia's piece, and how she kept mentioning that it's a relationship dynamic that she wants most in a relationship, and thinking about how her and Jacob are now married, just makes me so happy. I can see a bit of the domestic and chill relationship vibes from them behind all the funny stupid wacky things. :) It's good to see them so happy.
i am so glad we had karina, resident fandom person tm, to really go hard and fully put the shipping heart into her piece. i hardly know who the characters are, but there’s so much heart in every pixel of it that you could look at it and see your own otp in these beautiful scenarios because it’s just so damn genuine.
I’ve never watched Yugioh GX but Karina’s sincerity over her OTP, especially the “I want them to be happy” is making me feel some kind of way. Idk if it’s because I’ve only had 3 hours of sleep but I’m tearing up over this comic.

The "HK" on my screenname STANDS FOR HIEI X KURAMA so this episode took me a full 3 days of panicking before I could get the guts to push play😫 I drew a 250 page unpublished fan manga of Hiei and Kurama when I was 16!=>u
Rewatching while I fold laundry. When Jacob talked about color-relevancy, it just reminds me that if I ever get to a con and get to see him, I want to tell him that I'm a dyslexic novelist and it just makes me so happy to get to point at your art and say "Hey! Colorblind artist!
At least one person should do a drawing of someone worrying for their mental health while their house is on fire, and is writing stuff instead of getting help.
In my country, Valentine's day traditionally celebrates friendship, to an extent that the name of the day could be translated as "Friend's day". The Drawfee speed draws are a great example of friendship, with how supportive everyone is, and Nathan's drawing of Karina's OCs was such an amazing heartfelt gesture of friendship. Also, I'm so invested in Karina's OTP even though I only just heard about them. That art was too damn good and full of emotions. As a shipper myself, I really felt the "They deserve it!"
These were ALL so, so wonderful, but Karina's hit that specific place in my heart that shipped SO HARD for a specific couple. Like, the sheer dedication and tenderness? I felt that.
While I didn’t guess Fargo, as soon as they popped up on screen, I recognized them and was like “oh, Julia’s absolutely right- they ARE couple goals.” Don’t we all just want someone who will make sure we’ve eaten a proper meal?
I knew nothing about Fargo other than “An oldish movie that’s supposedly good” and Julia’s drawing created such a vivid vibe that I now desperately want to go watch it. What a great speed draw.
I watched Fargo because of Julia’s description and it absolutely delivered. Other stuff happened, but Marge and Norm stole the show for me and I was thoroughly delighted.
karinas piece made me cry. i dont comment on videos ever and i dont even know yugioh at all but something about the tenderness of it all GOT ME. so much THOUGHT into it. so much meaning behind the looks in some of those panels. ugh. augh. still crying
Ik julia talked about the warmth at length but goodness there really is such a home-y feeling to her piece that makes you feel like this could just be any day for them. That casual, unobtrusive kind of being there for someone you care about. Truly a gorgeous piece
never have I yearned more for Karina to be active in the same fandoms as me,,, though considering how her art in this one made me Feel Things even though I know nothing about the lads in it, if Karina drew fanart for ships I was invested in my brain would probably explode. so perhaps it's actually for the best 😂
Jacob is the most correct person on the planet and I'm glad he had the bravery to say this EXTREMELY TRUE FACT about a 30 year old anime that I, too, love
Julia does entire scene with detailed background in four hours. I am lucky if I get a single character done in four hours. It's just insane to me how good she is.
"People are gonna, like, have emotions about this. ... I-I have emotions about this- I don't know anything about these characters." -Jacob, spoken exactly at the moment I (who also knows nothing about these characters) was actively clutching at my chest and letting out a strangled scream because *hhhh the offering to share the blanket picture, and the big one on the right, specifically got me right in the heart*
Nathan and Karina's friendship is so special. Aside from his entire drawing and her reaction. Can I please point out their "one brain cell moment" during Jacob's drawing? 16:57 Their shared giggle afterwards warmed my heart. Also my new aesthetic is "softcore". ✌️💗

The funny thing is Hiei and Kurama should be a couple but since the manga is from the early 90s the autor was afraid of backlash (this is true btw, the autor said it once)
"there's exactly one heterosexual couple and it's norm and marge" drawfee understands queer culture so incredibly well
The "this is so much work" followed by Karina's high pitched "IT'S WHAT THEY *DESERVE*" is the biggest mood for me as an artist. ESPCIALLY with ships

Julia’s drawing is actually a very sweet love letter to Jacob, who as we all know, does all the cooking.
OMG YOU'RE SO RIGHT
Ohhh my heart ❤❤❤❤❤
I thought the same thing!
This. I half expected Julia to say she & Jacob were her ship based on her initial description of what she drew
Thinks back to the cooking simulator SSS stream and Julia’s beef chuck, dill, cinnamon, sugar, chili flakes, and olive oil “chilli”
Jacob saying he doesnt ship and then describing exaclty what he likes about kurama and hieis relationship is hilarious and kills me
I love how this episode was just 'Jacob, Julia and Nathan find something to do with a prompt they don't connect with, while Karina has a field day'
Yes
This whole episode reads like a gift to Karina
Let’s all thank David for giving Karina the chance to ascend beyond the void and earn her “Is this BLENDER?!?!” moment

The "HK" on my screenname STANDS FOR HIEI X KURAMA so this episode took me a full 3 days of panicking before I could get the guts to push play😫 I drew a 250 page unpublished fan manga of Hiei and Kurama when I was 16!=>u
You’re so real for that bestie!
250 PAGES!? I admire your passion but also how did you even manage
Would love to see Nathan’s “Karina’s neopets” vision board that he made physically
Karina's piece is true shipping energy, it's my favorite kind of fanart. You just want your blorbos to be happy together 😭
julia going “very boring answer” and then whipping out the last thing anyone wouldve thought of is like, the height of julia
"I just want them to be happy..." is such pure shipper mood 😭, the kind that sends you into week-long drawing quests for recursive dj fanart~
Rewatching while I fold laundry. When Jacob talked about color-relevancy, it just reminds me that if I ever get to a con and get to see him, I want to tell him that I'm a dyslexic novelist and it just makes me so happy to get to point at your art and say "Hey! Colorblind artist!
Nathan has grown so much as an artist; his pairing is so cute. But 15 hours? Daaaaaaamn, you live like this? CANDY!
Literally scrolled to this right as they said it... as I was *specifically* looking for it. Thank you.
8:08-8:25
Suggestion:
A Karina hosted episode where everyone gets the Tags of an AO3 fanfic and tries to make fanart for it ❤
This would actually be amazing
Yes please
I would love this, but maybe if the fic was like anonymized so the author doesnt get flooded with shitpost comments/put on blast
OMG yes, that would actually be excellent
At least one person should do a drawing of someone worrying for their mental health while their house is on fire, and is writing stuff instead of getting help.
Nathan's growth as a candy is honestly really impressive
In my country, Valentine's day traditionally celebrates friendship, to an extent that the name of the day could be translated as "Friend's day". The Drawfee speed draws are a great example of friendship, with how supportive everyone is, and Nathan's drawing of Karina's OCs was such an amazing heartfelt gesture of friendship.
Also, I'm so invested in Karina's OTP even though I only just heard about them. That art was too damn good and full of emotions. As a shipper myself, I really felt the "They deserve it!"
I love when they draw stuff for each other, because it always creates these wonderfully genuine reactions of absolute joy
Same!
Karina: “I have been wanting to get a desk pad.”
Me, quietly, alone in my apartment: more like desKielconfession
You deserve more recognition for this
I thOUGHT THE SAME THING
@@emiliabloch7104 sharing the brain cell!!!
@@kobycossins6730 definitely a Mewobiba moment
These were ALL so, so wonderful, but Karina's hit that specific place in my heart that shipped SO HARD for a specific couple. Like, the sheer dedication and tenderness? I felt that.
Nathan and Julia: I don't really ship...
Jacob: I just think they're neat :)
Karina: *takes off weighted drawing glove* Heh... it's my time...
Hiei does say, "You're as you should be" in an uncharacteristically gently admiring tone when Youko Kurama appears--in the dub, anyway 🌹
As a Yugioh fan, I would like to personally thank Karina. I could not stop smiling at her speed draw.
Hiei and Kurama will forever be an iconic pairing ☺️☺️☺️
I adore them!!! ^_^
BEST BOYS
While I didn’t guess Fargo, as soon as they popped up on screen, I recognized them and was like “oh, Julia’s absolutely right- they ARE couple goals.” Don’t we all just want someone who will make sure we’ve eaten a proper meal?
I knew nothing about Fargo other than “An oldish movie that’s supposedly good” and Julia’s drawing created such a vivid vibe that I now desperately want to go watch it. What a great speed draw.
same o7
It's a great movie, do recommend! (Also the show too)
Marge Gunderson is the only exception to ACAB.
I watched Fargo because of Julia’s description and it absolutely delivered. Other stuff happened, but Marge and Norm stole the show for me and I was thoroughly delighted.
So happy Karina seems to be living her best life this episode, she deserves it
karinas piece made me cry. i dont comment on videos ever and i dont even know yugioh at all but something about the tenderness of it all GOT ME. so much THOUGHT into it. so much meaning behind the looks in some of those panels. ugh. augh. still crying
Karina’s drawing of two characters I’ve never heard of from a show I’ve never watched managed to warm my little cold heart.
I’ve never seen if and I can firmly say I ship them
Young drawfee fans dont get how much impact kurama fox form has to us and im happy jacob is giving spotlight to this legendary anime
Ik julia talked about the warmth at length but goodness there really is such a home-y feeling to her piece that makes you feel like this could just be any day for them. That casual, unobtrusive kind of being there for someone you care about. Truly a gorgeous piece
Yes!
never have I yearned more for Karina to be active in the same fandoms as me,,, though considering how her art in this one made me Feel Things even though I know nothing about the lads in it, if Karina drew fanart for ships I was invested in my brain would probably explode. so perhaps it's actually for the best 😂
Jacob is the most correct person on the planet and I'm glad he had the bravery to say this EXTREMELY TRUE FACT about a 30 year old anime that I, too, love
Julia does entire scene with detailed background in four hours.
I am lucky if I get a single character done in four hours. It's just insane to me how good she is.
Was thinking that too 😳 it’s super impressive. We’ll get there one day!!! 🤝
"People are gonna, like, have emotions about this. ... I-I have emotions about this- I don't know anything about these characters." -Jacob, spoken exactly at the moment I (who also knows nothing about these characters) was actively clutching at my chest and letting out a strangled scream because *hhhh the offering to share the blanket picture, and the big one on the right, specifically got me right in the heart*
Marge and Norm are very deserving of being our token straights ❤
Nathan and Karina's friendship is so special. Aside from his entire drawing and her reaction. Can I please point out their "one brain cell moment" during Jacob's drawing? 16:57 Their shared giggle afterwards warmed my heart.
Also my new aesthetic is "softcore". ✌️💗
"hot inuyasha" ...sesshomaru is right there. also karina you have done it again. constantly raising the bar for us all and doing it flawlessly
