misc stuff and Legend of Sun Knight scans
Went to watch The Hunger Games last weekend. My heaaaart. Now I want to read the books, except I have A Game of Thrones to finish first. (I haven't gotten far with it yet). I ended up browsing Wikipedia about The Hunger Games. I didn't read too closely, but I still spoiled myself quite a bit.
I've also been slowly reading Ooku, a manga series I borrowed from gem2niki. It's fairly different from what I usually read. Series is about an alternate Japan where a disease killed off most of the men, so women ended up taking over men's positions. Ooku, which is a harem of women serving the shogun, is a harem of men serving a female shogun in this series. The story-telling is interesting... it doesn't focus on any single character but rather follows relevant people through history, so certain characters get the spotlight for a volume or so before a new character is featured.
funpotexchange has started posting! \o/ The fic I wrote completely slayed me. I was aiming to write one pairing, but the result turned out to be a completely different pairing because to get to the pairing I planned to write would have taken three times the length of the current fic. I'm not completely pleased with how the fic turned out (it feels very awkward to me, and more telling than showing...) but I hope it still has its redeeming points. :3;; I liked the idea a lot, so I might even flesh it out some more in the future with a focus on different characters in the same universe. I can't wait to see what other people have written, and what my gift will be! :D
Mm, Sket Dance~. I was looking forward to a new opening this week, but there was no opening! Did they not make it in time? XD;; I'm excited that there'll be another year of Sket Dance~. Housuke (an owl) was so cute in episode 52! As for new anime, I watched the first episode of Uchuu Kyoudai and Hiiro no Kakera. Haven't watched the first episode of Kimi to Boku season 2 yet. Gonna watch more stuff before I report back about them!
I'm still playing catch up with colors_tcg. Next will be fanbook. :x And then writing more of Bittersweet Sweetness!
But before that, have some scans! My previous photos of these were terrible, so I scanned them all instead. First up is Legend of Sun Knight scans.
SO this was Adair! I laughed so much when I actually saw this in full size because I totally thought he was holding a shield... except he's actually holding blueberry pie. And saying "Captain, I managed to buy your blueberry pie!"
This might take a bit to load because there are a lot of scans. |D;;; The quality is so-so, and some are actually photos because the posters were too big to scan! These are so disorganized. Uhhh, I'll try to organize them a bit so at least the same things are together. I don't remember if I've already posted some of these, so... whatever. I'll just post them all. XD;; Any scans that are potentially spoiler-ish have been put under a spoiler tag. Click to expand~
Cards
Bleh, bad quality. This is from one of the first few manhua bundles, I believe! Sun sure looks graceful. *____* *stares* A cosplay of this would look awesome... though no one would know the character if I actually cosplayed him where I live!
Sun. XD; I only just noticed... I scanned this from the other side.... XD;;;; The Chinese text is backward! This is a see through card. XD
LAWL, I scanned this backward too. XD;;; Ice, after having baked a cake~
At least I have Blaze scanned right. XD That sure is a blazing sword! And spirits flying everywhere. XD
I like Blaze's hairstyle~
Cute Judgment with blueberry desserts. I think I've shared this before, but not in very good quality. :3
Judgment, wishing people a merry Christmas with a whip is not how it should be done... XD;;
Playing cards. These ones have nothing on the 1/2 Prince playing cards! Only a few cards here and there have drawings on them. The rest are just normal cards, boo. I scanned the chibi ones. There are also some that have art from the posters, but I'll be posting the posters here too, so no need to post repeats.
Moon, with his whip! Looks like he was able to lower his neck here.=P
Cuuuute Cloud whose face we never get to see in the novel art. XD He wields a katana.
Metal! Dual knives! And he has a piercing on his lips. :O
Storm. His clothes look very extravagant. XD;; He also doesn't use a sword. Seems like a lot of people in the good faction don't actually use swords... XD;;;
Leaf with his bow!
Blaze~. Is his weapon behind him? I like the look of Blaze's cape, and those things he has on his ears! :D
Earth looks very honest and shy indeed. (But shy people shouldn't go around exposing their stomachs like this!!!) And you know what, I don't think he even has a sword at all... is his shield his weapon???!!
Stone with his huge blade!
Ice. Hm, does his sword look like a popsicle here? Nah. XD;
Roland, all dark and mysterious. |D His sword has bat(?) wings on it!! And he has a dragon design on his shoulder! Okay, maybe those are dragon wings.
Well here's Judgment clad in black to join Roland. XD And he's pointing his sword at youuuuuu.
Sun~. He's not wielding his sword, good. XD;;
Sun. he's wielding his sword here, better run
Same art as from the playing cards! But not all the characters are featured in these. (These are stickers in card size)
Judgment.
Judgment again~
Ice~
Ice again.
Roland. Now we can clearly see the dragon design on his shoulders. :3
Roland is so cute. :D
Folders and Clear files
I've always wanted to have this pic! :D Sun with a lollipop~. This is a clearfile/folder.
Of course I gotta post a larger version of this. XD;;; This came with the 7th manhua bundle. I thought I wouldn't be able to buy it given how little notice there was about it, but I managed to buy the bundle on an auction site and had my dad bring it back from Taiwan when he visited last month~. The bundle comes with Cloud's sidestory. I scanned the cover of the sidestory, which you'll see in this post as well!
A see through folder! I had a small version of this pic before, but now here's a larger version scanned by me~. This is such a cute pic. Cloud is hiding away, reading his book. I wish there were a version of this for the cold faction!
Here's the back of the folder~
These were newly released art from new merchandise in February/March. :3 This particular pic illustrates volume 3! I think everyone now knows what this is referring to. XD Neo and Aldrizzt are in the back. Sun is in his Dragon Saint Brigandine outfit. Leaf accompanied Sun on the trip, so he's here too~. I don't see how people mistake Sun and Roland when they're both disguised the same way. Sun still has long hair! XD;;
[illustration from volume 4, not too spoilerish in my opinion, but just in case]
Ice and Blaze~. They get a pretty awesome part of the story. You will notice there is a dragon in the bg
From the August book fair~. (Oops, I didn't tweak the contrast of this one, so it doesn't look as good)
Here's the other faction. :D Intricate designs. I love it.
From one of the manhua bundles~. Death Lord Roland and Judgment. I feel Roland's pants are too low... XDD;;;;
Pink is on the back of the above folder.
Posters and Bags
Someone mentioned wanting a better pic of this. This is a bag and was too huge to scan, so I used my camera to snap a pic. It might actually even look better than my scanning?! Reindeer!Leaf~ :D
Storm, why are you with the cold faction??!! XD;;; I was about to say, oh, here's the cold faction... wait a minute! Storm is here too!
I managed to buy this poster of the cold faction's younger years! (Why is Roland here too though? XDDDD He wasn't with them back then! But I guess for completeness...) I didn't manage to find the warm faction's poster. ):
Sun and Judgment~. This is a poster (so this was actually not scanned but a photo from my camera). Came in 2 packs of three. I'm so putting this up on my wall! All the rest of the posters are under spoiler tags because they may be a little spoilerish. XD;;
[a drawing from volume 5]
I am loving how Earth looks in this one! No poster of this one, but I'm including it here to keep it together with the other illustrations from the same book fair. This is when Earth and Cloud shadow Sun. So happy to have Cloud play a bigger role~
[a drawing from volume 6]
Judgment looks so awesome in this one. Though I don't remember him wearing clothes like that. I thought he always wore robe-like stuff! XD
The guy is Stephen and the girl is Charlotte. Both are from the Cathedral of the Shadow God. There's also someone in the background, but he's cut out in this poster. You can see him in the other versions of this pic though!
[Sun. I don't think you can tell anything from this pic, but just in case]
Sun. This pic makes me feel sad. ;___;
[Roland, may be a little spoilerish]
Roland. From the last volume!
[a drawing from the last volume]
There always needs to be a Demon King. XD;;;
Misc Stuff
This is the current mousepad I'm using. :3;;
Novels
Volume 1's cover~. Sun, Judgment, and Pink.
Each volume comes with a poster that's the same illustration as the cover. We can see Sun's sun emblem on his sleeve here. :D
Volume 1's back cover. Sun, lamenting the life of being the Sun Knight. XD
Volume 2's cover! Roland, both his Death Lord version, and his human self.
The poster~
Sun flipping tables at seeing Roland wear an apron. XD;;
Volume 3's cover. 'tis Sun. :3;;
And the poster.
Volume 3's backcover. Poor Leaf. Sun slaps him saying there's a "mosquito".
[Volume 4, only spoilerish in that you'll find out who is featured more in this volume]
Volume 4's cover.
The poster is very long!
Here, have the rest of Blaze. XDD;;
Back cover~
The following were included in volume 4. I think that was the first time everyone's designs were finally all revealed~.
Good, warm-hearted faction. Sun!
Earth and Storm. Okay, Earth is carrying a sword here, and he's not revealing his stomach. XD;; Storm is, of all things, holding a feather pen. XD;; He's a lot more clothed in the novel art than in the manhua art! XD;; Good for him, otherwise he won't stand a chance against the ladies.
Blaze and Leaf~. Leaf is playing with butterflies! XDD;;
Cloud. Why are his clothes so Japanese? XD;; His weapon is even a katana!
Ice and Judgment~. Here we go, cruel, cold-hearted faction!
Stone and Moon. Stone is not wearing a lot at all. XD;;; Manhua version is so different! Moon looks haughty to me!
Metal and Hell. Hm, Metal's clothes... XD;;; Why are there holes on the sides?? As for Roland, I like the art from the illustrations (near the top of this post) where he has that dragon on his shoulder the best. :3
Character popularity poll at the end of volume 4 of the novels! #1 - Sun, #2 - Judgment, #3 - Roland, #4 - Ice, #5 - Adair. Adair~ ♥ Sun is holding his basin of facial mask stuff, while Judgment is doing paperwork.
Ice is holding a box of cookies. XD;; The bubble on the left was the initial design.
[Volume 5]
Volume 5's cover. Neo and Judgment! :3 Judgment is actually holding the Eternal Tranquility. Aaaand, there is a reason why Neo is facing that way.
Volume 5's poster.
Backcover. "If you're really the Sun Knight, you should be able to pull that out...?" Haha, look at Earth. XD
[Volume 6]
Volume 6. I guess I shouldn't clarify who that is in the front. =P
Volume 6's poster. Hm, is that blood...
Sun, frozen. XD; The text says,
"Graffiti is prohibited."
"Taking this for making shaved ice."
"Earth was here."
"Bastard, wake up already!"
[Volume 7]
Volume 7. The Demon King!
Volume 7's poster.
Volume 7's back cover.
"Who do you feel is best suited to be the Demon King?"
1. Sun
2. Roland
3. Neo
Everyone chooses Neo. XD;;; He would be one heck of a Demon King!
Volume 8. This actually does not look spoilerish to me at all, so I'm not putting this one under a spoiler tag. XDD Sun just looks very solemn!
Volume 8's poster.
Volume 8's back cover. Sun and his blueberry pie~
Manhua
Volume 1's cover.
Back cover of volume 1.
Side flap. This is the direction Ice should have been facing in that card I scanned of him. XD;;
Ice: Just finished baking a cheese cake. Want a bite?
Sun washing his clothes and complaining that white clothes are hard to wash. XD;;
While Judgment has it easy!
Volume 2's cover.
Volume 2's back cover.
Side flap. XDDD;;;;
Sun: My retirement fund...
Judgment making porridge. There's a flower on his head! XDD
Roland~. There are much better scans out there of this pic than mine. XD
Volume 3's cover. (though this is actually a scan of something else, but the same pic was used for the cover of volume 3) Volume 1-3 can be pieced together to form one large pic! I wonder if volume 4 will continue on from Roland's face, or if it'll be a new pic? Maybe a new pic, since it's the start of volume 2 of the novels? :3
Back cover of volume 3.
Side flap. So cute! Haha, Judgment looks like he doesn't want to wear his!
Leaf~
Pink going, "Pink! Pink! Pink!"
From the inside of manhua v3. XD;;
"No one discovered the death knight that was currently crawling toward the king's room from the secret tunnels..."
Hahaha, what a sight it'd be to catch the death knight crawling in the tunnels!
Some character designs at the end of volume 3~. Storm! Blushing Storm on the right and winking on the left!
Storm. He does look like a pimp. XDDD
Roland. Bottom is Roland when he was alive. I like that hairstyle~
More Roland. He is not wearing enough. XDD
Roland's sword.
Another sword. Is this also Roland's...?
Pink.
An unfinished Pink. XD;;
Leaf. Yup, looks kind! XD
More Leaf. Cute~
The Divine Leaf Bow. The one on the right is a front view.
The Pope. (I almost thought these were drawings of young!Grisia. XDDD )
More of the Pope.
From the 7th manhua bundle~. Another reused pic, but good thing, since I didn't manage to get the poster of this! Sun sure looks very, very feminine in this pic. I scanned some pages from what happens inside!
Metal's introduction! This should be the start of manhua v4.
"Yo! Isn’t this our most esteemed and most radiant Sun Knight? Why hasn’t he gone inside already, and is instead standing out here, like an obstructing pillar? Tsk, tsk! And it’s a shining pillar to boot, so sparkly and pretty!"
XDDDD
We are also introduced to Cloud~. But Moon's intro was skipped (that part about Sun picking something up for him! Or did I just miss it...). Haha, Cloud has these spirit flames drifting behind him...
The worship service. XD;; *laughs at Moon* He really has to lift his head up high... I think I'm going to get Cloud and Ice confused. For a moment, I thought it was Cloud standing here instead of Ice.
Here we have the good, warm-hearted faction~. Storm is like always, winking. XD;; Earth sure looks benevolent. XD;;; Look at that smile!
This chapter made me laugh soooo much. This is the parade part when Sun is super hungry, so he turns around and sees... food! Everyone looks like food to him! Chocolate! Strawberry ice cream! Green tea cake! Blueberry shaved ice! And then someone throws a tomato that Judgment stomps brutally... XDDDD;;;;
Bwhahahahahaha! *holds stomach in laughter* Sun kicks open the door! (Hey, that's Blaze's job!) Sun sees... Death Lord Roland wearing an apron!
Sun: Roland, what are you doing?
Roland. I am wiping the floor.
That appearance is just... too much... XDD;;;;
So how does Sun react? He flips tables! XDDD
Eventually, they decide to go out for a stroll together, and all of them disguise themselves. Yup. Sun looks the most suspicious here. XDDD
Next chapter is when Sun stalks his Sun Knight Platoon. I want to read that!!! Adair!!!
Side story covers.
The following are short stories (no illustrations, they just have cover illustrations).
Cover of Storm's side story, "Owing a Favor". In which we find out how Storm got into doing all this paperwork.
Cover of Blaze's side story, "Kicking Forth the Truth". Blaze goes around kicking down a bunch of doors! :3
Cover of Cloud's side story, "Doing a Small Favor". Oh gods, this story. It finally reveals some more about Cloud's background, and it also details the demise of the people in the good, warm-hearted faction at Grisia's hand. XD;;; What's with all these cute birds in the corner here...
The following are short manhua drawn by Ya Sha. They came bundled with volumes 4-6 of the manhua.
Truth with Cover that comes with one of the novels, but PR is translating this as Truth in Disguise because Truth with Cover sounds weird. XD This is Blaze's side story with Grisia where we sort of learn why Blaze supports Grisia so much.
...there's a voodoo doll here!! XDD
The ending of the above side story~.
Also included is "Facing the Darkness" where Judgment questions if he is succumbing to darkness with his back facing the God of Light's symbol.
"For You All" in which Neo asks Grisia why he wants to become the Sun Knight.
Back cover of that~
And that is all, phew. XD;; Pics of other Yu Wo series to come next.

I can't wait to see what other people have written, and what my gift will be! :D
Mm, Sket Dance~. I was looking forward to a new opening this week, but there was no opening! Did they not make it in time? XD;; I'm excited that there'll be another year of Sket Dance~. Housuke (an owl) was so cute in episode 52! As for new anime, I watched the first episode of Uchuu Kyoudai and Hiiro no Kakera. Haven't watched the first episode of Kimi to Boku season 2 yet. Gonna watch more stuff before I report back about them!

The Divine Leaf Bow. The one on the right is a front view.
The Pope. (I almost thought these were drawings of young!Grisia. XDDD )
More of the Pope.
From the 7th manhua bundle~. Another reused pic, but good thing, since I didn't manage to get the poster of this! Sun sure looks very, very feminine in this pic. I scanned some pages from what happens inside!
Metal's introduction! This should be the start of manhua v4.
"Yo! Isn’t this our most esteemed and most radiant Sun Knight? Why hasn’t he gone inside already, and is instead standing out here, like an obstructing pillar? Tsk, tsk! And it’s a shining pillar to boot, so sparkly and pretty!"
XDDDD
We are also introduced to Cloud~. But Moon's intro was skipped (that part about Sun picking something up for him! Or did I just miss it...). Haha, Cloud has these spirit flames drifting behind him...
The worship service. XD;; *laughs at Moon* He really has to lift his head up high... I think I'm going to get Cloud and Ice confused. For a moment, I thought it was Cloud standing here instead of Ice.
Here we have the good, warm-hearted faction~. Storm is like always, winking. XD;; Earth sure looks benevolent. XD;;; Look at that smile!
This chapter made me laugh soooo much. This is the parade part when Sun is super hungry, so he turns around and sees... food! Everyone looks like food to him! Chocolate! Strawberry ice cream! Green tea cake! Blueberry shaved ice! And then someone throws a tomato that Judgment stomps brutally... XDDDD;;;;
Bwhahahahahaha! *holds stomach in laughter* Sun kicks open the door! (Hey, that's Blaze's job!) Sun sees... Death Lord Roland wearing an apron!
Sun: Roland, what are you doing?
Roland. I am wiping the floor.
That appearance is just... too much... XDD;;;;
So how does Sun react? He flips tables! XDDD
Eventually, they decide to go out for a stroll together, and all of them disguise themselves. Yup. Sun looks the most suspicious here. XDDD
Next chapter is when Sun stalks his Sun Knight Platoon. I want to read that!!! Adair!!!
Side story covers.
The following are short stories (no illustrations, they just have cover illustrations).
Cover of Storm's side story, "Owing a Favor". In which we find out how Storm got into doing all this paperwork.
Cover of Blaze's side story, "Kicking Forth the Truth". Blaze goes around kicking down a bunch of doors! :3
Cover of Cloud's side story, "Doing a Small Favor". Oh gods, this story. It finally reveals some more about Cloud's background, and it also details the demise of the people in the good, warm-hearted faction at Grisia's hand. XD;;; What's with all these cute birds in the corner here...
The following are short manhua drawn by Ya Sha. They came bundled with volumes 4-6 of the manhua.
Truth with Cover that comes with one of the novels, but PR is translating this as Truth in Disguise because Truth with Cover sounds weird. XD This is Blaze's side story with Grisia where we sort of learn why Blaze supports Grisia so much.
...there's a voodoo doll here!! XDD
The ending of the above side story~.
Also included is "Facing the Darkness" where Judgment questions if he is succumbing to darkness with his back facing the God of Light's symbol.
"For You All" in which Neo asks Grisia why he wants to become the Sun Knight.
Back cover of that~
And that is all, phew. XD;; Pics of other Yu Wo series to come next.
