Somi's just looks like a random picrew creation but credit should always be given to artists.

yea i just cant get over the fact that it was traced.....

oop....yeah when put together like that then there is no denying it ( was trying to scroll up and down in the source to compare between the 2)

I'm horrible. I didn't recognize the art is similar to Inuyasha. It's been so long since I've seen that show....The only thing I remember is "Inuyasha, Kagome. Inuyasha! Kagome! INUYASHA! KAGOME!" and "Sit."

I was obbbbsssssesed with Inuyasha as a kid hahha. But yea, not that stealing from an unknown artist would be better, but I just have such a hard time understanding how whoever did this thought tracing such a prolific work of art would be... a good idea. Not to mention that this anime that was traced, Urusei Yatsura, JUST got a remake anime in 2022...... (original was 1981)

Wow, not only was it traced but...it does't even look cute? That line weight, that lack of filter, you steal from an iconic illustrator and still come up with something that looks like most people's elementary school attempts at anime fan art. As if Korea is lacking in talented illustrators who would have killed it at that old school manga style.
