HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CHU2!!!!

“Sweet • Excellent • Unstoppable”

This piece took me a really long time, and I’m super happy with how it turned out! Like I mentioned in an earlier post, I’ve never really worked with different colors of lighting before, but I think I’ve got at least the basics down now! (And why is she eating jerky at a live concert? I don’t know. I decided I wanted her to be at a live concert after I lined the piece lmao.)

Now, a small message about CHU2:

When I first heard about RAS, I thought they were all weird- I thought their music and stage names and designs (except for PAREO) were weird. I eventually warmed up to them and didn’t mind their music too much, but I hated CHU2 because lots of people on here and Reddit kept saying she was an arrogant brat and she was a total jerk. I, having not seen the anime, agreed with them, because I didn’t know any better lol.

And then I watched Season 2 of the Bandori anime, and literally, as soon as she kicked over the trash can and picked up the trash again, I loved her. (That sounds like a very stupid reason for loving a character, but come on, what other anime character would pick up the trash and the trash can they knocked over? It showed that she had a temper but yet she was polite and professional at the same time. I loved it.)

And then I only loved her more as the season progressed. I looked forward to every scene with her in it, because she’s so entertaining to watch, with such a unique personality (and a cute voice lol). By Season 3, she was basically in my top three, and now she’s almost tying with Arisa. Actually, she might be tying with Arisa at this point. Stan CHU2

Anyway, happy birthday, CHU2! Here’s to another year of being sweet-excellent-unstoppable <3333
