Yoz. Newbie here. ;] I just recently finished watching Mushishi and I had to draw fanart.

I am so not an artist, but i had this random urge to draw Ginko from Mushishi because the artwork from Mushishi is just so god damn beautiful.

and...
I was bored...so i did a sketch. XD

The shading is all wrong, and some of the lines are too heavy but you know, i'm too lazy to fix that up :) So please enjoy :)

( Here is Ginko from the anime Mushishi )

So while Del Rey's translation of Mushi-shi is overall excellent IMHO I do have to question how they describe the series:

From the back of Vol 4

Nebulous and unseen, exisiting in a state somewhere between life and death mushi bring but pain, suffering and destruction to humans A small community of wandering healers and naturalists known as mushishi protect humans from the ravages of these malevolent entities....

Does it have the same summary in the original manga? Because um I would say this is the exact opposite of how I would describe the Mushi. They might be harmful to humans but never purposely so. I always thought in the story both humans and mushi are just trying to survive.

I am more amused by this then anything though. In the same volume Ginko says the mushi are not friends but strange neighbors. :)

Some good news courtesy of ANN. I've been dying to see this on DVD but it's even getting limited theatrical viewings, so of course I'm enthralled. We can probably expect a first quarter 2009 release.

Hello, MushiComm~! It is I, Hyula! :3
How has everyone's morning been? (Well, it's noon now, but...yes.)
I've decided to use my spare 30 mins before work to post up the screencaps I've been telling people I'd share. There's going to be much more soon, but I thought I'd go ahead and give you what I've got so far.Let's see if i can get this done before 12:30. 9___9;

Aaaaaand, that's all for now. *phew*
Sorry... these are somewhat low quality, and there's subtitles all over. .___. That was all I had to work with at the time. However! I've got much better versions now (raw, even), and so, if anyone found these useful, and would like more, I shall be happy to go a-hunting again. ^__^ (It's about time I watched this show again anyway~)

I hope these are helpful!
Have a great day!

Just a heads up: For those who have not bought the singles Funimation is releasing a boxset of the entire series this December. You can read about it here


On another note was anyone having issues with their Vol 6 DVD? My DVD was pausing horribly on the Sound of Rust episode so I replaced the DVD but I am having the same exact issue with my replacement DVD. I just wanted to know how isolated this issue was. I already ordered a new copy of Vol 6 but I am worried I will have problems a 3rd time.
