I love this artist fan! So beautiful art in many different styles !

 

This is slightly off topic here but I love Monjiro's (this artist's) jump babies - the artist calls them "式神ず" (式神 is  deity that Onmiyoji/陰陽師 summon to make them carry out various tasks) The translation/caption from Echo Cheng is slightly different to the original.

 

Left one: 「マリカーは１日１時間」means Mario Cart (playing time) is one hour per day. Yuzu's telling them not to spend too much time playing games

 

Right one: 「奥の手！切り札！かくし玉！伝家の宝刀！」more or less these mean 'secret weapon/killer technique/final blow'  Yuzu's telling flip & lutz to stay behind but he is not saying he doesn't need them but rather keeping them safe until they are needed. But having said that, Yuzu's asking them at the end 「わっわかった??!」"D..did you understand??!" so he stammered the word and it could mean he's hiding his true intention... 

 

This artist is so good with her drawings and some stuff she comes up is very clever!!  I love her little 式神ず! They are so cute!!

Do anyone know when the before pic was from?
