*rushes in*
I got VK volume 11 and am currently scanning the extra pages, will post sometime today. ^^/ (So just stay tuned~! :D)
But I just had to make a quick post to say this
IMMENSELY IMPORTANT THING (for a Zero & Kaname fan XD)
about the bonus artwork of volume 11. \\\*___*///
HINO-SENSEI DREW KANAME SITTING ON ZERO'S LAP.
I CAN NOW DIE HAPPILY WITH NO REGRETS IN LIFE. XDBefore you nosebleed too much,
it's not anything yaoi (XD *lol*), it's actually AU kindergartener Kaname cutely sitting in Zero's lap looking all innocent while reading a book. XD *lol* (Although the yaoi fans can certainly have fun imagining a version of this pic where they are all adults instead, with Kaname still sitting on Zero's lap to read... XD ♥)
Regardless of the non-yaoiness, my happiness at the
IMMENSE CUTENESS and at the
ADORABLE FLUFFINESS knows no bounds.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ The pic is amazing in how happy and ecstatic it makes me feel. XD It's just SO ADORABLE. Zero looks all wonderfully gentle and protective, while little Kaname looks all cutely serious (and adorable despite his usual kinda sad look, though it could maybe be taken as him pouting XD<3) as he reads his book (which looks like a children's book version of VK XD).
The choice of subject is such that it seems SO MUCH more like the type of thing you see me drawing rather than Hino-sensei, which amuses me endlessly as well. XD *lol*
*wonders if maybe Hino-sensei follows fandom stuff* XDThis is SO the type of fluffy image I dream of seeing for VK that it makes me so bouncy delighted.
♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ I must fan-color this pic sometime. XD
Also, kindergartener Yuuki and Aidou are in the pic too (Yuuki climbing on Zero's back and Aidou tugging at the tie of Zero's apron), but the splendid wonderfulness of Zero with chibi-Kaname on his lap blinds me to all else in the world and so I'm lost in glittery happiness and can't see anything else in the page. XD XD *rotfl*
*SO HAPPY SHE COULD DIE* XD
Also, Kaname and the other kids are all dressed in cute animal costumes, complete with little ears and all. *melts*<3333333
Zero looks in charge and has an apron, and Hino-sensei says he's the day-care attendant (like a teacher and fatherly figure kidergarten person all in one. 8D)
*dies from the epic levels of cuteness*
EDIT: And onto a (slightly more coherent without all the Zero x Kaname fangirling XD XD *lol*) mention of what's in the volume: Hino-sensei added some pages to elongate a bit two of the Kaname x Yuuki romantic scenes, and we also have as a chapter opening page the clean/full version of the Zero-laying-down-in-a-bed pic from before. :D
Plus cute comical stuff with Kaname, Yuuki and Aidou @ the Kuran manor. X3
EDIT: I'll upload the rest later after cleaning up/scanlating the added bits and the bonus etc., but I just HAD to get this page up first so that you could see its utter adorableness. X3
Behold, the adorable cuteness & innocence of
kindergartener Kaname
and his sweet & protective teacher/caregiver
Zero in an apron.
Protective Zero & pouty little Kaname ftw. X3 ♥♥♥
Yuuki & Aidou are adorable too. XD<333
Kaname is a little lion, Yuuki is a dinosaur, and Aidou is a fox (I wondered if Aidou was a kitty at first, then I saw the fox-like little tail X3), unless he is maybe a little wolf. XD
Yuuki and Aidou are a lot more like normal kids making a mess etc than the proper and all obediently studying little Kaname. XD *lol*
(Well, maybe it's just a book for fun, but seeing the age of the little trio, any reading helps with the studies, even if it's just a children's book. XD<3 *imagines Zero trying to make Yuuki and Aidou stop running everywhere so that they get to their reading too* XD)Can you imagine Halloween with teacher/attendant Zero having to organize a trick-or-treat thing with those kids/the whole pre-school/day-care or kindergarten? XD
Kaname would be the obedient one holding Zero's hand and not running around, only going for the candy when Zero tells him it's okay and all, while Yuuki and Aidou (and potentially the rest of the kids XD) would be running all over the place and giving poor Zero quite the headache as he tries to catch them all and prevent them from disappearing or crossing the street and getting run over etc. XD;;
(I don't think he'd yell at them the way he yells at the Day Class since they're small, but can you imagine the glare of doom as he runs after them? XD *lol*
And I could totally see little Kaname offering Zero some of the candy to try and cheer him up while Zero is panting from running to bring back all the other kids. XD XD)
In my endless hope for peaceful fandom happiness, I can't help but also hope that the adorableness and sweetness of this pic would maybe help throw water to put out the flames of fandom bashing, as it seems that lately the more the story progresses slowly, the more people spend time pointlessly bashing characters and fighting each other. T___T People even ignore entire portions of the manga just for the sake of coming up with excuses to bash characters and accuse them of things that never happened in the manga. T_T (Something that as you know, never ceases to sadden me as the bashing and hatred ruin so much of the enjoyment of fandom. ^^;; *was very close to dropping out of the VK fandom various times over the past year because of being so fed up of how much bashing there is in the fandom* ^^;;)
Look at the sweetness of the Zero & Kaname interaction in that pic, at Zero's serene protectiveness over the kids (he also looks so hot and manly in the pic 8D<3 *wants to work at that kindergarten/day care/place*) and look at Kaname's adorableness sitting in his lap being all cute and innocent,
and hopefully not even someone with a stone heart will be able to bash either of them without feeling deeply ashamed. X3
(...Hino-sensei could even have drawn it with the intent of bringing some peacefulness, actually... XD XD ♥ *lol*
After all, no author feels happy seeing hateful bashing of the characters they lovingly created, so she is anyway certainly among the many people wishing for fandom peace instead of all the pairing fights.)
Either way, as a fluffy little pic or as a message of peace, the pic is so utterly adorable, and I so hope it will fill people's hearts with warmth and put out anyone's urges to bash either of them. X3
EDIT: Okay, it's all scanned, cleaned and scanlated~! :D Sorry for the wait!
( This way for the extra pages and bonuses etc.. :D )And this is it, though I'll certainly be fangirling the adorable kindergarten image more and possibly coloring it and/or hopefully finding time for fluffy sweet fanfiction from that image, or for not so innocent fanfics from the fade-to-black moments in the volume maybe, or for an adult Kaname and Zero reading moment. XD *lol*
Please don't forget to buy either the japanese VK books or your official local releases~! :D ♥
That and please please please, if you feel like bashing any of the characters, just breathe deeply, take a look at the cuddly kindergarten VK pic and feel the fluffy cuteness instead? XD;;; *hands virtual little santa hat in hopes the season might also be of help in making things more calm and peaceful* XD;
