Thoughts about 2024
Added 2024-12-31 02:55:55 +0000 UTCIt's the end of 2024, it's been a great year for my drawings and daily works, and I am very grateful that so many people helped me and supported me for a long long time. I simply won't be able to maintain the creative activities without your help.
However, it is not all that great for all the dragging, constant delay, and often cross-months creation for just 1 chapter. To sum up, it's not that exciting. Yes, for one game only, I spent a whole year(well since my coming back in March) making it yet I still can't finish it all. I can't help but notice that I picked a bad approach to this huge set. I tried to explore a method to blend more story into the guro artworks but it turned out tiresome, much less intuitive, and perhaps less attractive from the guro perspective, at least for my own desires - it's just not as hot as I thought.
I think I know what happened here. I am more or less an impulsive creator, and at the beginning of the FE set, I wished to explore some new way to blend single-frame illustrations with storytelling. It worked in some cases for sure, but then I realized that I had to draw more and more transitional pages to fill the gaps between the real interesting images - the bloody, painful, deadly ones. TBH it's annoying and I can tell that I don't like it. it's not where my real interests are, and it's time-consuming. I found my free time all consumed by these transitional (normal sex?) pages and long ass writings, and even found myself having much less free time, time that I could use to play games or watch new animes to find new inspirations. I made fewer Pixiv releases, and I made fewer interactions with the guro community - It is just not good overall for future creations.
That is why I intentionally spent less time on drawing at the end of 2024 and finally began to play Persona 3 Reload. It's a great game with hot characters and I'm putting it in my future plans. It is the exact new experience I need to recharge my guro battery. Actually, I plan to do Persona 5 right after the Fire Emblem sets, got some interesting ideas in my head already, and then maybe followed by P4 / P3 if you guys like it. Or I'll turn to Xenoblades, Arcane, mobile game girls, other animes or cartoons, or anything I find exciting. I believe it would work better, it's my intuition.
In short, I am going to make each chapter shorter and straight to the point, back to my favorite "before-middle-after" style instead of drawing many intermediate pages forcefully to fulfill "a story". The hot, guro stuff must come first, and I can always fill in a short story later. In fact, I decide to make this change immediately. I am going to finish the rest of the FE3H girls this way to clear my schedule, and hopefully, I can start something new again as soon as possible. I have imaginations that I need to let out, just can't let it delay anymore.
Of course, this change doesn't mean that I will lower my quality. I enjoy drawing the details and complicated scenes, and for that I will always remain the same.
So do you guys think about this decision? Let me know what you think of this year's creations compared to my older ones. Do you think the change will make my work better? Or do you prefer the current way, or even wish me to try something new like transforming into manga? Let me know in the comments please.

Personally i think this change will make you more motivated and thus make you do better work. Compared to most R18G Artists, they do follow the ''direct into action'' method when drawing art. In addition to more freetime you could use that time to relax, enjoy yourself and come up with great ideas that your community likes!! Regarding the buying a new console or the hairloss clinic. I would choose the hairloss clinic, but in a case between the consoles then definetly the Switch 2. Stellar blade is coming to PC anyways!! I hope you keep sharing your work to the community you have made, since we all love you work and care of your well-being. Much love from me and the rest of us!! <33

2025-02-18 12:06:51 +0000 UTCI don't know whats happened with you page, but since 2025 can't make any pledges. Looks like your account have a shadow ban or something like that.
R4
2025-02-18 12:01:32 +0000 UTCMaybe you are not too hot about AIs but you could train one to do the transition image with your style and focus on the main pictures. Since you're an artist, if the AI images are not quite right you can also fix them easier.

2025-01-13 13:28:12 +0000 UTC很喜欢非常古早时期董白的那张图和P5四人那种终结性的场景感，像是狂欢之后的展示，以及作为故事的结尾，留下一地香艳的感觉，前段时间的Bernadetta也很有类似的感觉。 以前在某个古早长篇里琪亚娜的屁股也不错，可惜屁股挂树上了，但琪亚娜没有后续。P5四人双叶虽然没说怎么死的，但双叶的表情感觉很好，大概能想象到死法。 脑奸相关的故事比如2077和董香彻底杀死的过程希望可以细致一些，在细节方面。感觉这种过程中比较细微的比如面部表情的反应还是很可的，还有之前的蝴蝶忍也相当色。 P系列还是有很多好看的烧鸡的，像是P3R的学姐、由加莉和千鸟，结子和千寻说不上很好看但意外的还行。 P5的话，希望可以完善或者扩充下双叶的故事。 另外我看楼上有老哥提到了SMT，其实就是atlus的游戏真女神转生，前段时间又炒冷饭出了真女VV，里面确实有不少角色（仲魔）还是很色的，比如美人鱼、母夜叉什么的，但感觉可能确实不如P系列的人类来的有魅力。

2025-01-13 13:27:35 +0000 UTCI do have one question. Did you ever finish the set with edelgard getting killed by the bandits from the very beginning of the game?
krollym09
2025-01-11 20:29:53 +0000 UTCI think it's okay to slow down and do what you enjoy to get the energy back right now. That is what happened to me as well, as a "more or less an impulsive creator", I also find myself frustrating on filling gap of stories or putting more details in pics than just sketches, and I had got to that point of too much works and burn-out phase, so I had slowed down a lot last year to find a balance of doing more of the essentials to keep myself sane. And I think I am happy with "before and after" pic sets without much in-between, it's what many of my followers want, I know many won't satisfied, but I think majorities appreciate it. Take care,

2025-01-10 11:43:35 +0000 UTCWould you take on paid commissions this year? I have a spider-girl short guro comic I would like commissioned and you're the best artist for it
Britishdude101
2025-01-08 20:24:06 +0000 UTC除了多洛媞雅那套前戏有点冗长外，其他人物的套图和22年之前比起来也还好吧，而且今年突发状况也不少，每月平均下来一个人也说得过去。不过如果缩短流程可以增加每月人物的话还是很期待的，像20年上半年有不同游戏动漫背景的小短篇，每月的月供都感觉物超所值。 文字方面相比以往确实多了很多，不过要是世界观优秀到能启发出自己很满意的故事的话写长点也很好啊。以往的作品中每套的写作也有长有短，每月灵活调整的话想必这点不会构成问题。

2025-01-02 12:24:29 +0000 UTC老師您辛苦了 我最近一直回溫您的作品 雖然更新速度變慢了 但我還是會繼續支持 希望能在2025看見您的更多優秀作品 希望能看到更多的動漫角色 以及更新奇的guro內容

2025-01-02 11:35:31 +0000 UTCWould love for those who are in the west like being able to access uncensored versions maybe through the discord? Like a pledge subscription I think that is on there?

2025-01-02 09:18:57 +0000 UTCIt's a very good decision. Returning to short works will undoubtedly boost the quality of your works. At the same time, I also hope that you can focus more on the sexual content. Combining more grotesque, bloody scenarios with relatively common fetishes, I think, would be a great decision.
Hey_yoo_yoo
2025-01-02 08:27:22 +0000 UTCNo matter how you go about it, more or less story/panels, whatever characters you go with, I will always look forward to anything and everything you make, so I say go with whatever you most enjoy doing!
bardy
2025-01-01 23:28:51 +0000 UTCI say do whatever you're most passionate about! I look forward to your Persona works and enjoy the FE much!

2025-01-01 08:32:35 +0000 UTCI like big panels with the actual action.
R4
2025-01-01 05:31:45 +0000 UTCI loved the set with dorthea/manuela. The build up with the preg. Best set this year. The build up story/lore is the best part imo, if u can shorten and still do it I think it’d be best possibly? Also Arcane mention would be so hot. Imagine jinx and especially Caitlyn!
ivatic90
2024-12-31 22:28:49 +0000 UTCAs much as I loved the quality and lengthy chapters, I always loved it more when you gave every character in a specific series some love. I guess if you change to your new plan of creating shorter chapters for each character, you could give attention to more characters in a series. I'm especially in favor of this because I tend to like less popular characters like Charlotte from FEif or Ingrid from 3H. Similarly, I always loved the old concept of your works where it was simply before and after. This way, you could essentially create a lot of anything that comes to your mind. Whichever way you choose, I hope you're happy with it and you let your creativity shine more in 2025. Happy New Year and more success to follow you!

2024-12-31 14:53:35 +0000 UTCGenerally, I feel like having a set that nicely integrates the lore and story of the character makes it more effective. I always like to think of them as unofficial "bad endings" to their stories. Of course, this is quite dependant on your familiaritiy with the characters (and to a pretty large extent, the amount of depth the characters themselves have). This doesn't mean that there can't be a good story that's utterly divorced from the source material though (mainly your mobile game stuff, which I feel is more experimental because of this fact). And yeah, the transitional "normal sex" images became too overbearing to the point where they made up an entire month's set, which definitely wouldn't work in the long run. Here's to another year of greatness for you Aya, your art is truly one of a kind.
reclaim3r
2024-12-31 14:03:14 +0000 UTCI think at the end its better to avoid burn out at all costs. If you are feeling much better doing shorter works with less filler scenes then you should do exactly that.

2024-12-31 13:48:27 +0000 UTC* the uncensored work for Chloe from FE specifically, I think that was aya’s last update so far over there

2024-12-31 11:08:17 +0000 UTCYou could find uncensored works on his HF page. They are lower resolution though.
ADFLJH
2024-12-31 11:07:38 +0000 UTCI say, do what you love. That way I think you can bring out your best for each drawings. Also just a request if you don't mind, cause I can't support on Fanbox due to Visa and Mastercard, can you maybe post on Fantia too?
Addition2
2024-12-31 10:45:40 +0000 UTCI absolutely love short before and after stories You are making absolutely fantastic art .
prankmaster
2024-12-31 09:45:16 +0000 UTCPersonally, i think that some of the better lengths ones where shinobu and kyoka. Told enough story to bring intrigue and jumped right in. That said if you wanted to do a longer one every now and them and make em feel special, thatd be cool. Im also excited to see you branch from FE. Its a treasure trove for hot women but its good to spread it with other people. Id love for the P5 and P4 roster get a good run through. Id also personally love to see you revist it team RWBY again

Shadowacolyte42
2024-12-31 08:23:47 +0000 UTCLike a lot of people have said, I do enjoy stories, but shorter, more straight to the point works are always exciting. I did prefer it when there were more short and to the point works like that personally.
Arata
2024-12-31 08:19:29 +0000 UTCI do enjoy the stories but it definitely does not need to be many page or panels. In the past, you have a couple set up panels then right to the action and that was still fun. Even just a write up is fine honestly. I also think it's very important for an artist to be constantly inspired so if drawing lots of pages takes away from your gaming/media inspiration time then please do less pages. Especially with Marvel Rivals and Miside release, there are many models and situations to explore.
Divixip
2024-12-31 07:33:59 +0000 UTCI personally like buildup, but that doesn't necessarily mean more panels. In a lot of your older works the set up was explained with just one or two panels which were literally dimmed with a wall of text setting things up. Those who don't care for the plot can just skip that first panel and get straight into the action. Same thing with endings, a final frame with text. An idea I may propose: I was a fan of JM's Empire back in the day (before the Chinese got him). If you ever really want to flesh out more narrative, it might be worth taking inspiration from his old work. He only did only a few detailed frames, but then went into great detail explaining his depraved world just with text on the side. If you ever feel inspired to flesh out more story outside of the guro scenes themselves, don't feel pressured to make a dozen frames for it. Do the guro, but then give the rest of the story separately as old school smut.
LordofSkulls
2024-12-31 07:19:36 +0000 UTCAlways been a fan of your guro works, I find all of the violence, blood and graphic drawings to be really arousing and erotic, if you want to focus more on those aspects because they are your favorite parts I'm personally all for it, drawing what you like will always be the most important, keep up the amazing works c:

2024-12-31 07:06:21 +0000 UTCLike what changes?
BobFrank
2024-12-31 05:59:24 +0000 UTCBy the way, I have a question, the set of Chloe of fire emblem in pixie is incomplete? Because I remember In the old time different images.
Shadowacolyte42
2024-12-31 05:35:01 +0000 UTCDo what's best for you, I'm sure everyone agrees that you drawing what interests you most is much better than trying to force yourself to draw all the in betweens for the story. You can also follow other creators way of doing things when it comes to story sets where you draw the key images, before, during, after, and Collab with another creator to write a novel like story to accompany it. From a writers perspective, I personally could make stories to accompany your non story works like Eve and Mitsuru based on the images alone. But that's merely a suggestion. Just do what you feel is best for you, we'll support you just as we always have regardless.

2024-12-31 05:32:24 +0000 UTCYour new decision sounds nice, hope to see your new art the next year.

Lavos5784
2024-12-31 05:19:47 +0000 UTCIt sounds like you've been through this new work flow enough times to experience it's competition time and results to the point you cab make a fair decision. Eventhough you may get a more fleshed out product, your quality is so high that the flow time increase exponentially. I'd absolutely say listen to your gut and get back to the more streamlined flow that you enjoy more and is more productive. If you want to revisit the longer storyline you can spend some of your new free time on finding ways to productionalize it more to accelerate the process. Whether that be obtaining and training on new tools, getting people to help in the process, or finding new techniques, make that a side effort that can employ when you feel it's ready to help you. At least now you know what the end product should look like, you'll just need to scout for a faster route.
Lavos5784
2024-12-31 05:18:39 +0000 UTC是的，我觉得至今为止的的七个故事里面希尔妲的故事是最令人兴奋的了，小而美的化身。1和2章都非常的精致，量大管饱。然而最后三个的出品都有点割裂了，令人有点遗憾了。

2024-12-31 05:16:07 +0000 UTCAnyway, thank you for your efforts this year, it is your freedom to do whatever subject matter, looking forward to bringing more guro next year🥰🥰
Demon_Mansion
2024-12-31 05:12:17 +0000 UTCYes, I've been following you for quite a while, and I think making a long story makes it even more slow, you have to spend many weeks or months filling out a story, there are a lot of transitions, and every time you have a guro idea in your head, you should cut to the chase and destroy it quickly. Do a lot of foreshadowing, which will take a lot of time, you will constantly think, constantly delete and redo, feel that you never do the best state, let yourself into the mire. I like the predation plot in the wind and snow, the simple and clear narrative, the effect is great. If you want to catch more hot spots, it is still recommended to do short stories, to ensure that the content will not be outdated, you can catch up with the heat, spend a few months on the same subject matter, can greatly satisfy the will of a particular fan, but also exclude the other part of the people who are looking forward to other ip content.

2024-12-31 05:11:25 +0000 UTC期待p系列 你願意繼續guro創作我就很滿意了
sa
2024-12-31 05:09:14 +0000 UTCI like the buildup, but if that’s too much drawing, I think just a few sentences in story describing the pre-snuff scenario is fine. It really is a matter of inspiration, maybe when you feel like having a longer set you can draw one, and otherwise stick with smaller sets. I really enjoy your works so any format is fine as long as we can get updates ;-; BTW, which girls are you planning for next month?
ADFLJH
2024-12-31 04:57:40 +0000 UTCPersonally, I prefer having a buildup to the snuffing but if you feel like you're not having any enjoyment in those parts then I have no issues with you changing your style if it means you can crank out more sets for us to enjoy.

2024-12-31 04:25:52 +0000 UTCIt doesn’t matter😂 I will keep supporting whatever content you provide!
