tonight's doodle is that one meme, ft. my favorite little mongrel #DaemonsOfTheShadowRealm #黄泉のツガイ #ヨミツガ

Yuru from Yomi no Tsugai (Daemons of the Shadow Realm) in a parody of the "Hold on, let me do the face" meme. Top image shows Yuru appearing normal, compared to an ID photo where he is cartoonishly angry and labelled as a "barbarian". Saying "Hold on, let me do the face", the bottom image shows him entering hunter mode, red eyes glowing, more closely matching the ID. The person holding the ID trembles, exclaiming "HOLY SHIT"

Wrote most of this a few weeks ago and spent today hammering it into something legible. Pre-canon Danji angsting over Yuru and whatever tf is happening in Higashi. The intention was pre-slash, but it can be read as platonic just fine. =u=b Spoilers thru ep24 archiveofourown.org/works/93051851

AO3 summary screenshot for a Yomi no Tsugai fanfic featuring Danji and Yuru as the central focus. Set in pre-canon from Danji's POV. Rated T, no archive warnings. Can be read as platonic or pre-slash.

Summary: If all Danji had to deal with was the wait, he could be content with that. But he must also deal with the weight, knowing this tower of lies will one day collapse upon him.

long time no eiroku for tonight's doodle, i love these boys more than breathing 😭

A rough sketch of Rokurou and Eizen from Tales of Berseria over a simple blue background. Rokurou is loosely hugging Eizen from behind as the latter is reading a book. Mood is casual and affectionate.

rough comic idea w yudanyu vibes Danji's strong desire to protect Yuru + shapeshifting = using Yuru's likeness to lure assassins into a trap. An AU where a more ruthless side comes out when his loved ones are in danger or smth like that lol #DaemonsOfTheShadowRealm #黄泉のツガイ #ヨミツガ #art

yurudan kabedon + danyuru retaliation Drew this instead of finishing any of the other art I've started this week. These two have my braincell in such a vicegrip rn lol #DaemonsOfTheShadowRealm #黄泉のツガイ #ヨミツガ＃ユルダン＃ダンユル #art

artwork of Yuru and Danji from Yomi no Tsugai (Daemons of the Shadow Realm). Yuru is initiating a kabedon (wall slam) with his hand near Danji's head. Danji responds with embarrassment and surprise.

This time, Danji performs the kabedon using larger shadow hands, resulting in a more aggressive slam. Now it's Yuru's turn to be surprised, while Danji gets to be a little smug.

Just some alright Frontlines today, but they were fun. Missed some good damage opportunities due to lag, as if tab targeting on controller wasn't frustrating already, but Onsal is a map that encourages skirmishing, so there was plenty of murder to go around lol And now to draw until dinner -u-

sdkfjas that's right i made a Yuru cosplay for bard, ty past me frontline is going to be amazing

No two work shifts this week have the same start time, so my sleep schedule has been royally hecked up yall 😭 But I'm doing my best to draw when I can. ty YnT brainrot for getting me through this... anyway here's some YnT/ToB wips/sketches. And now it's bedtime. g'night

Quick and messy redraw of one of my favorite scenes (so far) in Yomi no Tsugai. Whenever Yuru goes "this foe is prey and I'm gonna hunt it" I get very 🥹💖. Peak moe tbh. #YominoTsugai #DaemonsoftheShadowRealm

A screencap featuring Yuru from episode 4 of Yomi no Tsugai (Daemons of the Shadow Realm). He is charging out of the darkness wielding a machete, aiming for the back of Jin's leg. Broken glass is scattered across the ground.

A rough drawing based on the provided screencap. The drawing is in black and white, save for the red of Yuru's eyes.

Was in the area of the nearest B&N, so I decided to be impulsive. I've put so much braincell into thinking about these characters already, might as well go all in right? lol

The first 8 volumes of Yomi no Tsugai [Daemons of the Shadow Realm] stacked into two piles.

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

Only 13 eps into #YominoTsugai, but I had to sketch out the current blorbos. -Danji made too strong a first impression, and I have Theories re: ep 13, but if anything happens to him, I will personally mail Arakawa my tears. 😭 -Yuru in hunter mode is so 👀💦 -Gabby is perfect, 10/10 no notes

Facecanon exploration for the Rangetsu brothers~ Drew this for my own self-indulgence, but I thought I'd share it for the maybe two other folks out there who might be interested. d-don't judge me too much for my bad handwriting orz

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

Sketch from a few weeks ago that I decided to clean up a little bit more. I thought Rokurou would look very cute in the TalesFes theme! Maybe one day they will invite him back again...

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

An additional sketch for #eirokuday2026, specifically for @disappearingmuse.bsky.social's entry, because bug Rokurou in a little bug house with a little bug tunnel would not leave my mind.

Rokurou Rangetsu from Tales of Berseria, but as a tiny bug [stag beetle variant]. Features Eizen for scale, and a tiny bug house, with a tiny bug tunnel.

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 26/06/2026

Check out what I wrote for #eirokuday2026!! :D Essentially "what if Eizen met Rokurou pre-canon" with extra steps archiveofourown.org/works/87322801

ao3 summary: A surprise encounter with a young boy in the woods alters the course of Eizen's life. Ten years later, the Van Eltia runs a ship of criminals aground off the shores of Vortigern. Far too long after joining forces, Eizen realizes these two events overlap through one man in particular.

I saw the illustrations for TalesFes and Gaius took me out so fast I still haven't recovered. So here's a quick sketch. His little hair bun is so precious😭

I died and got kicked out of the dungeon so I took everything out on a dire foe to feel better lol Should have led with a combo, maybe I could have cracked a million damage with it. Alas... Back to the grinding wheel tomorrow~ The rest of the night is for writing (or, well, attempting to) 😤

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 19/05/2026

Reveeeenge!! 😭🎉 I fought him for almost half an hour...he used Like a Phoenix twice. This is the first time I've used an All Divide since the PS2 days, but ya know what, it worked. I think I played Laphicet like 70% of the fight bc my party couldn't keep themselves alive otherwise :'D

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Playing through the Loegres section of TOBR reminded me of this post I made back on the bird app that I think about constantly. So much of Rokurou's character is told through gestures and reading too deep into his dialogue and I love him for that. 💖

Images of moments in the game where Rokurou is drinking with the text: Do yall ever think about how Rokurou drinks with his right hand in every scene except when he's drinking with Eizen, who is left-handed, cause I think about that a lot.

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 28/03/2026

We did it. We found the Final Fantasy. (this made me realize I don't have a weapon glam for WAR atm, my current relic step is kinda ugly)

I bought way too much stuff at con...not pictured are all the gifts for friends. But it was all so pretty 😭 I wasn't expecting to see any Princess Tutu, YGO, or Mushi-shi stuff, so those were some real treats. You can't see it well, but the foil bits on the ygo prints are so [clenches fist] 💖

And finally, a humble apple to celebrate Tales of Berseria remastered! I hope new and old fans alike can continue to enjoy this game. These characters mean more to me than I can ever express. I will love and cherish them forever. 🥹💖 #talesofberseria #TOBR

Just 1 more day until Tales of Berseria remastered!!! Like Eizen (or maybe even more so), quiche is a dish so intrinsically tied to Velvet, there could be no other option. It is a precious memory for her! 💖 #talesofberseria #TOBR

Only 2 days left until Tales of Berseria remastered! It's almost here! Laphicet will do (almost) anything for some mabo curry, which is honestly a sentiment after my own heart. #talesofberseria #TOBR

Only 3 days left until Tales of Berseria remastered! When Eleanor mentions pengyon oyakodon, she seems very passionate about how delicious it is. Given her strong associations with Southgand, she probably grew up eating dishes like this a lot. :D #talesofberseria #TOBR

Only 4 days left until Tales of Berseria remastered! Eizen is tied so firmly to palmiers I could not imagine giving him anything else. He's worked hard to make sure they're nothing short of perfect. 😤 #talesofberseria #TOBR

Only 5 days left until Tales of Berseria remastered! Magilou doesn't really have a designated dish in the game, but my friends and I thought a nice Battenberg cake suited her rather well. Even Bienfu can have some on this auspicious occasion. lol #talesofberseria #TOBR

The Berseria x Food countdown begins! Just 6 days left until the release of TOBR! Rokurou's favorite food is fried sweet potatoes, but he also likes a good drink in equal measure. So we will let the lad dual-wield everything, even his food. Them's the rules. 😊💖 #talesofberseria #TOBR

Final teaser. Countdown starts on the 21st! Can't believe I actually finished this on time \o/ And by finish, I mean forcibly stopping myself from fiddling with it indefinitely. 😭 Doing this has actually made me more excited for the remaster...Guess I'll be playing it day one after all lol

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 13/02/2026

Some of today's progress!! Rokurou always takes forever to color, his design has so many parts 😭 Eizen is so much easier by comparison... lol

Here are the roughs, if anyone was curious. Some are definitely rougher than others lol

Schmait @schmait.bsky.social · 25/01/2026

I wanna try and do a countdown series for the Berseria remaster, featuring each party member with an associated food. I've finished all the rough sketches, but here are some WIPs of some of the food. :D Fingers crossed I can finish in time 🙏

thumbnails, each featuring an associated food with a Berseria party member. The last three thumbnails are roughs for extra characters I probably won't get to...

Been knocking out the pre-final-dungeon sidequests that definitely want you to come at a higher level (60+), and boy these fights are spicy (on Hard, at least). I'm glad I know roughly how to play every character, cause the AI sure doesn't. Lol maybe I should main healer for the rest of this game...
