Uhm, I don't know if anyone would really remember me, so I will talk like I am a long lose friend.

Hi everyone, Akaji here. Apart from my last upload, it's been 4, 5 years. I have been away from Deviantart and now I can't even recognize this place, it's so new and colorful, it scares me. First of all, I am very sorry to those who do appreciate my art and waited my upload. I know I don't have to apologize for this, but it's kinda who I am, so I will just do some gesture. Secondly is to those who do move their platform, and look for me at Twitter, Furaffinity, or other places. Thank you for still keep in touch with my creation.

I was not stop drawing, I just can't catch up with the among of websites I have to upload. Hence, I only focus on some website now. Also I was fed up with too many people contact me at once, so I ran, hide away. I still have that problem, but was able to differ who to focus my time for. I am still try to upload after I had done a drawing, so you can tell I got anxiety and depression due to this work environment. Speaking of work....

I had graduated, yeah. 3 years ago. I finally completed my study and basically able to draw furry art (or more specifically Transformation/cartoon art) for a living.

I still get people who message me asking me for free art though. As much as I hate to say, I am recognized my work can be paid, and glad that many had supported me to keep do what I do. However, my parents aren't very happy and proud of what I choose, so... we aren't in very good relationship now. They are sort of turn a blind eye on me, and sometimes wants me to prove my worth by asking money from me. "You can earn money by drawing these right? Give me some money, prove it." It makes me harder to love them when they be like that. I get depression when I felt I am closer on paying taxes. I know one day I eventually had to do that.

Apology for that, I tried to draw less vent art. As you all know, COVID is a thing now. After my graduation, I moved back to my hometown to prevent getting infection. That is when my parents start doing those I said above. I wanted to move out, I kept argue about it's all because of the virus, and it makes me very unhappy those years. My parents, despite doesn't argue about money all the time, doesn't care about the house condition anymore. They thought hmm, since you are staying home all day, we will let you clean up, do all the chores, it's your worth now. (Of course this all came from my depression, they maybe just lazy one day) It's a lot better now, so don't worry.

Away from DA doesn't really improve my work ethic, I am still all over the place, unable to catch up on friends. One thing that I never stop is keep drawing and upload, do my Patreon right. A lot of friends that I once value a lot, are not close to me due to work, getting famous or we just realize we don't match. It's ok, I grew and knew things can't always go my way. That brings me more new friends, which is good! Right?

Oh I didn't tell you guys this, I have been into games (wow, Akaji so original), I was very rebellious about games because I scared I will get addicted to it. Hence, that's why these games make my depression even worse haha. I really like Don't Starve Together. A 2D style horror survival game, you guys might be surprised by this I think?

One day my friend gifted it to me, they .... cannot carry me, I felt very useless in the game, but then I start watching guides and such. Died multiple times, finally survived a lot of days. Now I even killed the newest boss of the game. I never really get a game that lets me hooked for so long, way longer than Undertale did (duh). Although I am now hiatus due to nothing else to play there, I was looking to play with my friends or carry them potentially. Just... make sure I work properly before I gaming all day.

One of those friends, is my boyfriend. I .... had 2 boyfriend. 2 who are a little older than me, dad size. We are doing far distance relationship, but it kinda work. I really enjoy their company and my goal now is one day move to live with them, well one of them.

But as a Malaysian.... that is a very pricey dream to achieve. I am not here to force you guys to help me achieve this dream, but that doesn't mean you can't get a commission from me.

For those of you who just found out about me, I am active on Twitter as @Akaji_lion and Furaffinity is Akaji_Yui. Saying that doesn't mean I will come back here, unfortunately I am still a bit scared to upload things here. There is too many art I did, and I hate to upload things that aren't relevant at the time. Even if it does, I will just mass-upload and disappear again. I will choose what I wanna upload here. I am sorry I can't interact to all of your nice comments ((which I sometimes don't even get comment >.>)), but if you do, thanks. If you really want a commission but don't wanna get it from my other platform, here is my new commission sheet, I will upload it when I think I am ready too, just private message me.

XD There is just too much change if you stuck at the image of me back in 2019. There are many things happened, such as I cried in the local furcon due to some incident.... I broke up...

I start doing ns.... nvm. If you wanna see those art that I uploaded, they are all in pack in my patreon :)

There are many pledge for you to choose. For more exclusive stuff, the more expensive the pledge is. For those who did follow me on my other platform, don't worry. I won't upload anything else you never seen before here. You probably saw everything unless you didn't support me on Patreon.

Lastly, as the patreon name suggested, I am indeed drawing a comic. It's called Lionverse:

You can see it as Akaji (my fursona) 's backstory or some sort, it took me literally 2 years of covid year to start it, and chapter one isn't even finish yet, it's very hard. Writing story to make it pan out perfect is hard.

So yeah, I will upload pages that are done once Chapter 1 is finished, it will be the only thing that will guaranteed be on DA. If you wanna support this lion since long gone, at least 1 dollar. Or.... you don't need to if you feel I betrayed ya, I deserved that I guess .w.

Love ya all, lion signed out. Ahh and if you wanna ask ANYTHING related to my characters, and what happen to them, or "what happen to that drawing of yours", feel free to ask me.
