THE ONE CHALLENGE: ONE COLOUR
brought to you by The Underappreciated

Now if I'm not mistaken this challenge has been going on for nearly a year now, and I only managed to finish this one off after a whole year. The lazy bug is starting to grow bigger and bigger, I can tell.

Straight to the wall. So for this challenge, I was actually planning to use a scan from Gundam Seed Destiny, featuring the Minerva team. It was already vectored and it's safe in .psd file in my pendrive but I kinda find myself staring at the vector for I dunno how long and my brain completely ceased its function, it seems. But then something else came along the way. I found this smexy scan featuring Hijikata Toshirou of Gintama, and I just cannot help but to drool for over a few days before I finally decided that this is what I want to wall for The One Challenge.

Note that this version of Hijikata is not done by Sorachi Hideaki. XD This is actually the last page of a Gintama doujinshi manga titled "Rikka" done by the manga-ka Nagisa, from the doujinshi circled called PLUG. Many many

It's a simple wall. *scratches head* I really love how desperate and devastated Hijikata looked in here, so I was just trying to let that feeling portray itself through the emptiness of the wall, so I was actually afraid of adding more stuffs at the left side other than some random circles and the text.

And as for the title, Mou Kimi ga Inai from FUNKY MONKEY BABYS was the inspiration. Here's the 1st and 2nd paragraph of the lyrcis.


isso no koto wasuretai konna ni mo setsunai nara
namida afure hitomi tojire ba
ima demo kimi no egao ima demo kimi no kaori
konna ni mo daisuki datta nante

yuugure no eki no hoomu futari sumikko no benchi ni suwari
kimi ga noru hazu no densha wo nan bon miokuttan darou
boku wa utsumui ta mama kimi no namida ni kitsuiteita kara
sayonara suru no ga kowakatta sono migite wo hanase nakatta
saishuu densha no beru ga narihibii te kimi wa kyuu ni tachiagatte
muri shite tsukutta egao de "ima made arigatou"-tte itta
kao wo age tara hashirisatte ku chiisana senaka
ikiba wo ushinatta hidarite wa sabishiku furue te ta

Why don't just forget about it, if it]s so suffering
When closing my eyes, tears coming out
Until today your smile and your fragrance
I still loved it so much.

In the evening at the station platform, both of us sitting on the bench at the corner.
The train that you supposed to take, how many of train had just gone pass us
My face was looked down and quiet, because I noticed you are in tears
I'm afraid to say goodbye, and your right hand is not leaving
Finally the last train bell rang, suddenly you stood up
forcing smile and said to me "Thanks for all of this"
You raising head, the small back shadow of you was getting further from me
my left hand is like losing home, and shivers in cold.
