Puu from Yuu Yuu Hakusho giving Pochita from Chainsaw Man a nice bowl of ramen ( although by the time Yuusuke was cooking for a living...Puu is big! )

Digital fanart of Pochita from Chainsaw Man sitting on a cushion and wearing a checkered bib, drooling while looking at a bowl of ramen that Puu from Yuu Yuu Hakusho is carefully carrying with two little oven mitts, walking carefully and wearing both a hair net and a handkerchief on his head.

“I…Yeah. Did you snoop?” The smirk Yuusuke gives him, makes Kazuma feel sort of small. “Maybe. Get me something else to wear.” “Ask me.” Eikichi is walking on his chest, while he’s laying on his back and smiling up at Yuusuke. “Please get me a clean shirt, Kuwabara-kun~?”

A black and white fanart doodle of Urameshi Yuusuke leaning over Kuwabara Kazuma, who is laying on the floor. Kuwabara has two cats sitting on him, while he lays on his back, smiling up at Yuusuke. Yuusuke is also smiling, one hand in the pockets of his shorts while he gestures with his other hand down at Kuwabara. Yuusuke's hair is a little over-grown, and, he has stubble on his face. The background is of Kuwabara's family home, and one of the cats is jumping off his chest while a kitten in the background is meowing for food. Text bubbles beside them read "Ask me." This is Kuwabara speaking Second text bubble "Please get me a clean shirt, Kuwabara-kun~?" This is Yuusuke speaking.

if you look closely enough, everything is the same. We all have the exact same atoms. They are merely arranged in varied patterns to fit in the structure of life, by no will at all! Our differences are made by us, that is the choice we’ve all made.

Digital fanart of Yuu Yuu Hakusho rendered in bright colors and grainy textures: A cluster of cocoons that have been eroded or left to waste their contents, save for the center which contains Shura, looking furious and frightened in the same hand.

Learning about the bats that crawl into pitcher plants and going that should be how Kurama met Kuronue… Either moron going OH COMFY almost gets eaten because it is the wrong type of plant for his race to sleep in due to being a Kurama specialty OR…Kunonue was the kinda guy growing them for himself

A quick doodle of Kurama and Kuronue from Yuu Yuu Hakusho, Kuronue is in a large pitcher plant and saying 'well, you see...' while in humanoid form then turns to bat form saying 'It's comfy!!'

Genkai indeed headbutting Yuusuke in the gut so hard he almost passes out ( while Kuwabara knew this was gonna happen and didn't stop it because hes old and kinda petty about Yuusuke )

Today Kuwabara and Yuusuke from me: AU where they were the ones that attended the first Dark Tournament and Yuusuke is finally able to come back, finding how much time has passed + find his former best friend an old man with an MEAN little student he's helping figure out her Reiki skills ( Genkai )

An alternate universe where Kuwabara and Yuusuke are in their old age while Genkai is the one in her early teens - Kuwabara is sitting on the edge of a porch ( the Temple but..it's his !) while Yuusuke stands between Kuwabara's knees. Yuusuke has longer hair, pulled back in a ponytail, while wearing a haten jacket and pants. He is touching Kuwabara's face and chest, while crying.

Kuwabara has short white hair and many wrinkles. He's wearing a simple dark grey tee and grey sweatpants, with white socks and pink slippers. He is holding one hand to one of Yuusuke's thighs. He looks sad, as well.

The background is a very sunny, spring day and between the porch rails, the viewer can see Genkai running towards the porch, a bit upset since she has no idea what's going on between her teacher and this random youkai

I wanted to draw Yukina and Hiei together as younger children so I have but with no idea behind it besides ’Hiei would probably tuck both hands and feet under Yukina’s no matter how cold she was, soon as Hiei could’

Today Kuwameshi from me: Yuusuke’s apartment’s A/C ( a Daikin mini split ) has broken on a really hot day and Kuwabara deciding that if he’s gonna go out…He will at least be comfortable ( Yuusuke single handedly lifts him off within moments, though.. )

6 panel fan comic of Kuwabara Kazuma and Urameshi Yuusuke in pink and blue tones

P 1: Kuwabara opening Yuusuke's apartment door, wearing a tank top and shorts, holding ice creams in a bag in one hand. 'Urameshi! I'm finally here... It's so fuckin' hot out there...'

P 2: A view of Yuusuke's apartment but rendered to only show off his AC wall unit, a fan and Yuusuke sprawled on a blanket on the floor, in only his boxers and wearing a wet towel on his head. Kuwabara holds up his bag. 'Uh...Why's it hot inside, too? My ice creams melted!' Yuusuke holds up one arm. 'Uh, my A/C is out and the fix-it guy ain't arrive yet. Here, ice. Put ice on yer head.'

P 3: Kuwabara falls to his knees, yelling. 'Urgh! I walked here! I'm roastin'!' while dropping his ice cream on Yuusuke's floor. P4: Kuwabara laments on his hands and knees, while Yuusuke says 'Get that bag off my floor.'

P5: Kuwabara starts to crawl towards Yuusuke who says 'What are you doing.'

P6: Kuwabara is cuddled face first into Yuusuke's chest, while Yuusuke shouts 'It's 36c in here! get offa me!' while Kuwabara says 'Why....If I'm gonna die from this heat, I might as well go out comfy...!'

Two Kuwameshi things I have drawn this week

4 panel fan comic for Yuu Yuu Hakusho of Kuwabara Kazuma and Urameshi Yuusuke: Yuusuke is wearing a black and grey turtleneck that has the impression of ocean waves, while Kuwabara is wearing a yellow scarf, purple shirt and tan jacket over top.

Panel 1 the background is a sunset without clouds in the sky against the city skyline: Yuusuke is shoving his arms into the arms of Kuwabara's jacket while sidling up back to chest to Kuwabara. Kuwabara is saying "Ah! Hey! Get your own jacket! You KNEW it was gonna be cold, today!" While Yuusuke sneers and says 'Huh!?'

Panel 2: Kuwabara staring down at Yuusuke who is sparkling and saying "Are you kidding? This is just...Boyfriend tax! Let me get warm!"

Panel 3: Kuwabara is smiling wide and thinking 'boyfriend tax...' while Yuusuke sighs, finally tucked into Kuwabara's jacket

Panel 4: Kuwabara snaps out of it, saying "Wait..." while Yuusuke snickers about getting his way, holding both of Kuwabara's hands out the end of the jacket sleeves

Doodles of Urameshi Yuusuke and Kuwabara Kazuma but they are simple shapes: Two that are Yuusuke being lifted by Kuwabara, and Kuwabara being lifted by Yuusuke.

Then a small doodle strip of them arguing back and forth on who likes the other more:

Panel 1: They are face to face and arms smushed together saying I like YOU more / Nah, I like YOU more! No!

Panel 2: ( foreheads and hands touching ) Yeah-?! I'm gonna- Uh- Make you sooo happy! / Oh yeah?!

Panel 4: Yuusuke pointing and grinning 'Well-! I wanna family with you! HAH!!!'

Panel 5: Kuwabara touching his face and blushing, hearts around him "Really....With me??" While Yuusuke grabs his face and gasps "Shit..."

I simply wanted to draw Yomi without a shirt on in plot relevant events for my fic WIP, simply because! I wanted to draw Yomi barely packed into an outfit, so I did, with reasons that make sense to me and will to others once I write the damn fic

Two digital fanart of Yomi from Yuu Yuu Hakusho in a dark purpole bodysuit that is tied around his waist, revealing his bare chest and arms. There is a towel tied around his neck and his hair is pulled back in a ponytail. He is angry and holding a length of fungus he can't kill because it's already dead.

Another Genkai and Yuusuke comic I doodled because I love this angry, foul kid and the equally foul mouthed and angry old woman he got to spend far too little time with. Yuusuke finds a banner in a closet, so, Genkai goes ahead and sort of celebrates Children’s day in August, for Yuusuke

Panel 1: Yuusuke, holding a carp banner that represents a child of a family is asking Genkai 'Hey! Why do you got one of these?' while Genkai grumbles 'I don't know. Put it back.'

Panel 2: Yuusuke looking at the banner and saying 'Never got to fly one of these things...' while Genkai, who is only the back of her head, says 'Huh?'

Panel 3: Genkai is turned away from the table she's sitting at. 'Not once? Isn't your birthday in May?' While Yuusuke says 'Yeah. Ma just doesn't do this sorta stuff!' ( they are referring to children's day is also in may c the 5th when families will hang carp banners that represent their family members. in this case it's yuusuke alone! )

Panel 4: Yuusuke is laughing and pointing at the carp, now flying on a pole above one of the Temple buildings. He is saying 'Ahaha! It's me!!!' while Genkai smiles at him, telling him not to shout, she's standing right there.

Yuusuke having seen some of Genkai’s scars for the first time and telling Kuwabara about this! I wanted to draw Yuusuke like.. he is still 14 and hasn’t gone though a lot yet, so his thought process is not going to ’someone hurt this lady’ but ’ohhh a bear makes more sense’

'Panel' 1: Genkai and Yuusuke in a hotsprings, Yuusuke doing an actual doggy paddle swim while Genkai inspects a washcloth. Yuusuke is staring at Genkai's back, which is covered in many scars, some poorly healed and some that were stitched nice enough they are only lines but still evidence of severe damage.

Panel within panel 1: Genkai is pointing at Yuusuke and saying 'go get a new washcloth, this one has a hole...Now!' While Yuusuke talks back, but is still moving to do wha she says. 'Ya could say please!' he shouts, while Genkai yells back 'GO'

Panel 2: Yuusuke is walking to school with Kuwabara, having recounted what he saw to his buddy. Kuwabara, for his part, looks confused and says so. 'So? Master Genkai has fought a lot? She's gonna have scars, Urameshi!' Yuusuke says 'Yeah, but...Claws?' while Kuwabara scoffs 'We've fought youkay with claws too!'

Panel 4: Yuusuke is thinking.

Panel 5: Yuusuke says, confidently, "She must have fought a bear." Kuwabara looks even more confused. "No..Maybe."

A drawing I been using as my wallpaper a few weeks because it is cute to me! Yukina and Hiei from Yuu Yuu Hakusho but…They are caterpillars and Hiei is bad at foraging so, Yukina has brought back a dandelion to share and hugs to comfort her crybaby sibling

Fanart of Yukina and Hiei from Yuu Yuu Hakusho but they are simply drawn caterpillars with hair and faces: Yukina is green with red band around her middle and some red spots. Hiei is purples with no warning spots. Yukina is laying on top of Hiei and petting Hiei's head while they both eat a dandelion, and Hiei is tearing up. The background is blue with a white cloud behind the twins.

One page comic about Kurama in his human childhood, having had his first panic attack and needing picked up from school due to bullying: he bit one of them, and not a planned reaction

P1: Shiori is saying 'why would you bite your classmate, Shuuichi? This is so unlike you...!' It is raining out while she is driving P2: Shiori glances up at her rearview mirror due to hearing Kurama sniffling, in the back seat P3: A reflection of Kurama in a rearview mirror, who is crying already. He is saying 'I-I'm sorry, mother. I...' P4: Kurama backed into a corner by two other children, with his shadow becoming a kitsune shape while he looks frightened. There is a speech bubble overlay; 'I was scared.' p5: Shiori is looking upset over her son's distress, saying 'Oh...Shuuichi...' while Kurama wails in the back seat

My apologies for such a late reply but, I'm glad you enjoy! I haven't much else currently drawn office man Kurama but, I do have this doodle comic from a fic of mine where he had a nightmare: and that was he lost his department’s fresh interdepartmental delivery envelope & cant speak Human!

a 3 panel doodle comic Panel one: Kurama is asleep, blood on his collar. He looks uncomfortable and is groaning in his sleep. Yuusuke and Yukina look on. Yuusuke says 'Is Kurama having a bad dream?" Panel two: Yukina looks worried. "Should we wake him?" Yuusuke says "Nah. He's fine!" Panel three: Kurama is unable to speak any human tongue, only yipping as his step father looms in the background asking 'shuu-kun, where is our interdepartmental envelopeeee? you had it last~~'

yyh fan comic about Yuusuke, post youkai, being told by his primary care provider ( Oki, moth youkai, fan oc) that he cannot digest milk products anymore decides that he remembers Keiko telling him that a person can overcome a food allergy by eating a lot of that food. False!!!

A 6 panel Yuu Yuu Hakusho fan comic:

Panel 2: Close up of Yuusuke's upper head and a thought bubble that has Keiko in it. Y, Thinking: Didn't Keiko tell me about... Fixin' your immune system by exposing it to allergens? Eat it until you can? Keiko, in Yuusuke's thoughts is saying: No! Yuusuke! I didn't say that! That's not true!

Panel 3: Marigold BG as Yuusuke's thought bubble pops and he snaps his fingers.

Y: Th-the...The milk...

The walls must limit much any sensing of youki from outside them; this weakened, Kurama can only now sense it. Feeling saltwater coming up wrong, burning while you are gasping for air, peeling your stratum corneum from your stratum lucidum with salt and salt itself. Burning. Yomi’s youki.

Doodle fanart of Kurama from Yuu Yuu Hakusho: his upper body is darkened from being submerged in a metaphorical ocean, his eyes standing out against the darkness. His legs and right hand are corroded down to muscle and bone outside of the 'ocean'
