"A Hopeless Dream Chaser"
I can’t believe I still haven’t seen any of Chiba’s Yagyu Jubei movies. But I have seen a lot of posters and screenshots in my references. I really like this one, so I used it as the subject to keep practicing with the ink brushes I mentioned before.

I know that Kii-chan in the vol. 20 Special edition chapter is supposed to be a BABYMETAL type idol, but I liked my idea of her being punished Kii-chan. So with that idea in mind I went with a Metal Gear parody painting. When I finished painting Kii-chan, I felt it would be kind of funny painting in Tomoko as Big Boss. But not as an active soldier but as a weapons dealer like she mentioned back in her chuunibyo days.
I was kind of worried about the crow, but it was much more straightforward than I thought.

During a special chapter of Watamote the results of the character popularity contest were released and everyone was dressed as an idol. Surprisingly Kii chan was ranked 17 (though with the amount of characters it makes sense) but on top of that she was dressed differently. Even in these special chapters the corrupted mind of Kii chan still exists. Tomoko’s influence is scary…
I’m guessing the style is based on BabyMetal, though it reminds me of Metal Gear for some reason. I dub this version of Kii chan as “Punished Kii chan”.
Not all the outfit was shown past the chest area so I had to make up the rest.
