Kaoru Sakurayashiki - Blog Posts

and they aren’t even confirmed yet?! this is all the confirmation a need.

What a great day to be alive

You know the funniest thing about SK8 the Infinity or whatever? Langa and Reki, simply do not care. They don't give a shit. The whole series, ADAM is making ominous biblical lusty threats towards Langa and Langa is NEVER paying attention, Reki is too busy having a mental crisis/coming of age moment to pay attention to the guy that literally beats the shit out of him, but at no point are they like 'maybe we are being treated in an odd way' or 'maybe we should find out more about Adam' because they don't give a shit.

They never approach Joe and Cherry like 'we need to know the TRUTH about Adam' because they're too busy dapping each other up in an abandoned skate park. Reki gets hit by a car by someone connected to Adam and when Snake goes projecting all his issues he's like 'okay whatever, unrelatable'. Langa brings up 'I wonder why Adam skates' ONE TIME, and they're like 'it's probably because he enjoys it, no other possible reason'. They don't care about his shady past with Cherry and Joe. They don't care that he's a politician. They simply have two priorities and it's each other and skating.

It's so funny to me that they're THIS apathetic to the main antagonist. Himbo's wish they could be this dumb.

so happy to see the babies on the tl agian 🥹🥹#

I just adore how Kaoru casually mentioned that he’d like to give all his passion and interest to skateboarding, and Kojiro was suddenly near a skateboard shop. I mean, this guy is so in love — your crush mentions they're into something, and you're already running to dive into it and impress them.

Teen matchablossom movie night!!!

This is probably the most time I’ve ever spent on the background of a drawing 😂

Alternate versions under the cut 

Matchablossom Get Help Animatic

Some previews of a Matchablossom animatic I’m working on! It should be out tomorrow! :)

Since the races are at night, I bet there are nights that they stay out so late that they get to see the sunrise from the top of the mountain

Imagine how the other students in their class would see them argue all the time but also see them practically glued together at all times 😂

I love the idea of them confessing mid-argument, but I drew a softer confession instead 🥺

My school starts back up today and I’ve been stressing about it so I haven’t drawn much, but turns out I forgot about this so perfect timing! XD

It’s too hot to wear my leather jacket, so I’ll make my favorite character wear one instead 😂

Hopefully Cherry’s window isn’t too high up 😂

I think the main reason I headcanon Joe as a trans man is because if I had top surgery and muscles like those, I’d magically become allergic to shirts too 😂

Quick doodle of some hoodie designs I want to make for cosplay! :D I’ll probably change it a lot before I find the correct color hoodies and paint them tho 😅

I know this would never happen in the Sk8 universe, but seeing the old racetrack and Cherry’s reaction to Adam calling him boring gave me this idea and I had to do it

I think I’m slowly figuring out how tf teen Cherry’s hair works xD

Expand for more variations! :)

This drawing started just as a practice for colored lighting, then it kinda turned into one of those stereotypical high school parties in movies and tv shows xD

I like to imagine something triggered an argument between the two and Kojiro ends up panicking because holy shit Kaoru is hot when he’s mad and he’s struggling not to kiss him.

Matching Cherry and Joe doodles I forgot to post!

Here’s the aftermath of Cherry vs Adam!

I don’t have any more parts planned, but I’ll definitely continue this AU eventually! But for now Kojiro will have a great time being the caretaker for Kaoru, who is very very stubborn about asking for help about anything

Cherry vs Adam Part 4!!!

Slight blood warning!

Honestly, it was kind of hard to make the injuries translate from his dragon form to human form, but Joe wouldn’t have been able to carry him away if he was still a dragon 0-0

Cherry vs. Adam Part 3!!!

Cherry vs. Adam Part 2!!!

I honestly considered having Kojiro riding on Kaoru during this race, buuut that would’ve complicated things so Kaoru decided to do this alone for once.

Cherry vs. Adam Part 1!!!

Sooooo in the dragon AU, it’s like, flying races kinda? And like in the show fighting is allowed which is a lot more intense when they’re dragons 0.0

Kaoru would totally steal any food that Kojiro is making, despite how much Kojiro complains about it 😂

I wanted to try something new when drawing hair and I think I like it!

Also Cherry is totally the type to sleep on Joe’s side when he misses him 🥺

Okay, hear me out. What if instead of being a full sized dragon, Kaoru is a clingy cat sized dragon? Kojiro would have an angry living scarf who refuses to leave his side xD

Some sketches from the Matchablossom dragon rider AU!

I recently watched Sk8 The Infinity for the first time and I felt the need to make a dragon rider AU for Matchablossom! :D

I also wanted to keep young Cherry’s piercings because I love them 0.0

Não gente não é a capa do desafio, é um pedido -qqq

Pelo milagre do divino depois de tentar cinco vezes traçar o Joe eu consegui de uma forma que me deixou feliz OINDAWOINDAOWINDAWOINADWOIN perdoa a Mafu Picasso, ela não nasceu pra isso -qqqqq

Capa para a fanfic “Período Azul” escrito por Starzu- para a seção de SK8, fanfic sad com foco no nosso querido Cherry e no Joe, o nosso lindo ship matcha blossom (é assim Brasil? -qq)

E claro que ia colocar a manip do Cherry para os curiosos de plantão ~

I wanna ruin our friendship

(We should be lovers instead)

I couldn't help myself
