Many of my regular viewers already know who Itsuki Sugimoto is. But if you are new here, she creates a wonderful universe of short comics with many characters that, I’m proud to say, I’ve followed since the very beginning. (Well, at least I think so. 😅)

Out of her many characters, there’s one man whom I particularly adore, and I just HAD TO draw him myself.

Itsuki, thank you for letting me draw Takaaki Sakai in my style. There’s no way I could capture his personality in just one drawing, but I do hope I’ve at least done a fair interpretation of his face! 😊
