[Sariel of The Final Makai]

Actually now that you mention the "Evil Eye" thing, I looked on YuugenMagan's page on the Touhou wiki, and in the origin section it mentions this:

"The Judaic angel of death, Sariel, is associated with evil eyes and is said to be able to ward them off. Due to the appearance of Sariel in the game and Makai itself containing numerous references to Abrahamic imagery, YuugenMagan is most likely based off of the Jewish concept of evil eyes."

Makes me wonder if Yuugen and Sariel are enemies. They also have similar health bars, so that's likely the case.

TankTheta responds:

Never actually considered that possibility. It's a fun idea and probably quite likely.
Might be why he had both in there.

YO I LOVE THESE DESIGNS SO MUCH

I posted my HRtP redesigns too but yours are like objectively better. I wanna share my own thoughts on each

Reimu - she looks simple compared to the others but I like how you made her hair black instead of purple

Shingyoku - I wonder why they're koi fish, either way it's neat, kinda wish the male and female forms had their own unique appearances but it's great nontheless

Yuugen - you somehow managed to make them more terrifying lol

Elis - my girl took "turning into a bat" literally, also I like how there's a star on her wing, it's kinda like what I did for my redesign coincidentally enough

Sariel - by far the most terrifying, I love angels and seeing Sariel resemble one of the more eldritch ones makes sense given what she's based on (I believe it's the angel of death and healing?)

Mima - guess this is what happened to her after she got ditched, but in all seriousness she looks neat with the dark aesthetic

Kikuri - I think someone finally remembers she's based off of the Shinto goddess of marriage

Konngara - I love how she's all-red; it's a nice way to contrast Sariel's blue and it shows she's not afraid to whoop ass

I think I hyperfixate on this game too much but I had to type this down because this fucks and I would die for a reskin of the game with your redesigns

MidoriBnuy740 responds:

ayyy, glad ya like it!

for shingyoku, i was indeed planning on making human forms for both the male and female sides, but i thought it'd be neater if it was just the koi fish posing like a yin-yang

they don't really have much to them in canon anyway, so anything is fair game imo
and i like to take the youkai approach for the characters in the most "non-human" way possible without taking away their identities in the process

I wonder what your thought process for Komachi's limbs were; they remind me of something but idk what exactly

MidoriBnuy740 responds:

was inspired by the death note shinigamis' looks

[BLAST AWAY 🔨💥🌀]

even though I personally don't like Kolsan as a person, this is a neat redraw, I like how Mario's batting Sonic with his hammer (tbh it seems like something that could be in the new Mario and Luigi game)

RedezRookie responds:

Oh, well thank you for liking the redraw

[Pico trio as Powerpuff Girls]

I'm guessing Blossom = Pico, Buttercup = Darnell, and Bubbles = Nene

NeneFan2 responds:

I wasn't really thinking about it like that at all but now I see it lol.
