Or something… (edit)
The something being a H-game…humm (edit)
Ahem.
Anyway, I’ve been drawing beatmania-related things really sparingly for some reason. The IIDX characters used to be one of my favorite things to draw, since GOLI’s design sense is pretty good and his characters always stand out; he and the staff even made some amusing backgrounds and stories for the characters. I wouldn’t think IIDX would have gone this far without the design team’s influence.
Sakura here is my 2nd favorite IIDX girl. Her story is that she was visited by a death god who mistakenly took her life, so she ends up inhabiting the body of Iroha until she is brought back by the time of IIDXRED. For some reason, all the characters backstories don’t really have anything to do with IIDX (other than they play it) and is rather about a cute relationship map.
I’m not sure why her racing outfit was ditched for the black suit that shows up in IIDX GOLD; apparently, most of the costumes that they wear come from a fashion shop called ROOTS26. Why they wear such odd clothing is kind of beyond me.
