All aboard the Doujin Express!
You know, I've missed long-form blogging. I'm really going to try to do more of it!
With that said, here are a few gen/shounen-ai Digimon doujinshis I picked up recently! Lots of images under the cut, some of which are a teeny bit risque, so y'know... view at your own discretion.
The theme of the first two books seems to be "the numerous quasi-sexual frustrations of Motomiya Daisuke." Not intentionally, of course, but it's amuses me that it worked out that way XD
First up is "Mochi Goma." I bought it because the art looked cute and it had Wallace on the cover, and you really don't see that kid often enough. Stupid-adorable playboy... X3
Just inside the cover is a gag page. Oh noooo, Motimon!! DX
This whole doujinshi consists of short-but-sweet gag stories. The first one starts out with Daisuke, Takeru, and Hikari... at least, until Yamato shows up, and starts paying a lot of attention to his brother (much to Daisuke's chagrin).
Oh my O_o (LOL at that little creature in the corner though!)
The second story seems to be about Motimon a) being adorable and b) annoying Miyako outside the computer room. Also, that is a nice Koushiro right there, yes indeed~
"Free talk" from the artist between stories. They clearly enjoy drawing the digimon! <3
Iori is cold, and Jyou and Gomamon... something something XD;
I don't know what's going on here either, but it's really cute! <3
Wa-ri-suuuu~~~ Oh, I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me there. I just like this kid, OK? And it's NOT just 'cuz he's a Colorado boy (at least, I don't think it is...) ^^;
AAUGH YES ACTUALLY THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR A+++ DOUJIN RIGHT HERE X333
...OH WAIT IT JUST GOT BETTER. Poor Daisuke-- LOL! XD
One last page. Nooooo idea what's going on behind the censor-pixels, hahaha. But you know, now that think about it, censor-pixels seem like a pretty hilarious(ly appropriate) visual device for the Digimon universe. I'm surprised I haven't seen them utilized more often!
On to Doujin #2! This is "Guruguru Triangle," by AtsuAtsuCook. I do like their art, characterization and sense of humor (they mostly do Taito). Plus, Taichi is wearing his Triangle shirt here. I appreciate that kind of attention to detail :3
Gosh darn it that's adorable >_<
Preface illustration + starting gag. Cuuuute!
The story begins with Taichi and Yamato feeding each other lunch (rather adorably). Daisuke tries to cut in, but the boys aren't having any of that XD
Then, for some reason, Taichi wants Yamato to feel his heartbeat(??) He invites Daisuke to do the same, which gets Daisuke really flustered.
Takeru and Hikari walking in on the scene probably doesn't help much XD
Sketch page interlude. OMG, that fig leaf. That Gatomon. That horse!!! XDDD
Later, Daisuke happens upon T&Y having a rather um... tender moment in the park. Yamato notices Daisuke spying on them, and Daisuke runs away. Oh my!!
Daisuke confides in his sister. She is (probably) disappointed that Tai and Matt are a couple. Also, OH HEY IT'S JUN. HI JUN!! X3
The next day, Daisuke accidentally runs into Yamato. This leads to a rather heated and incriminating-looking exchange, which Taichi happens to witness, and becomes jealous.
Taichi and Yamato start to argue, but quickly make up. And then...?
Er, well, it all ends rather abruptly. But still, cute!!
This last one is about is about Ken/the Digimon Kaiser. This was an omake (gift) that I didn't explicitly order, but I'm actually quite pleased with it (because really, I kind of like Ken best when he's still the Kaiser-- shhh!).
Seems like all of these doujin start with gag pages. I really like this one. That TK-- bwahahaha!!
Despite what the date in the first image says, I have to think this takes place in the year 2000 (is that before Osamu dies, or after? Hmm, I don't know!!) Slightly-younger Ken is researching(??) the fight between Omnimon and Diaboromon, when all of a sudden...
BOOM! A disembodied hand comes out of the computer monitor! :O (I really love the use of digicode here, by the way. Lovely page! X3)
A body materializes soon after, which belongs to the Kaiser. It looks like he got blasted here from the future where he's all repentant and stuff.
They have some sort of dialogue-- possibly Kaiser!Ken telling younger Ken vaguely what's in store for him while being all evil angsty hot. Kaiser!Ken develops some rather serious-looking flesh wounds and disappears, but clearly this affects younger Ken (not enough to actually CHANGE the future obviously, but still) :P
And then... AAH LOOK IT'S THAT LITTLE NERD AGAIN. What a nice surprise! X3
Random one-page near the end with Yamato and Jyou...
...and finally, some cute doodles to close out the book.
Auugh, doujin culture is so much funnnn and I'm so glad it exists~! I have one more book to go through, which might become its own entry or maybe I'll just add it on here!
UPDATE 10/21: One More Book has been added. Happy Back to the Future Day!
Mmkay, this one wins for cutest art style by far: Digimon Trip! by PikaPikaHamuster. At a whopping 66 pages, it includes 4 short stories and several pages worth of sketches!
Most importantly, it has Taishiro in it X3
This is what happens when you try to make Taichi study. Adorable!!
It's getting a little intense for Koushiro in there, who decides to make a snack (oh, hi Mrs. Izumi!!) And, of course, Taichi is conked out on the bed when he gets back XD
Oh GOSH I love how this person inks. Their lines are so slick and smooth and weighted in a really appealing way. That hand-holding down there~! <3
YAMATO WHERE DID YOU EVEN COME FROM (the story finishes with Yamato and Koushiro fussing over Taichi for a bit, who stays sleeping/oblivious until the very end) XD
YAGAMIS *sobs*
Another story involving Daisuke & Takeru coming to visit the Yagami household, and Tai cooking some eggs. Seriously though, what IS that little thing on the mug? I could have sworn something similar was drawn in Mochi Goma as well. Is it some sort of fujoshi mascot that I have been unaware of up until now? XD;
I know what's on that mug, though. I wonder if this artist draws Pokemon doujiinshi as well? X3
Sketchesssss! <3
One more comic page, just so I can say that the Han Solo look is a good one for Yamato ^_^
OK, I lied, two more. *GROSS SOBBING*
Geez, Nov. 21 is only a month a way. Seems kind of hard to believe, doesn't it??
