Hey there

I thought about explaining a little bit how my edits work by using this upcoming remake of one of my old no-background edits.

It’s obviously not finished, I’ll post the final result somewhere before Valentine day

Let’s start with the basic: find the right face for the right card. So what I normally do is find a random card I like, look at it, and think " who would fit on that ". I think about two things here. First, the colours. Most characters are having colours that match them more than others. For example, Ran is fitting really well on cards that are with warmer tones. Second, the overall "energy" of the card. Is it more of a cute pose, cool pose, sexy pose, etc. I then try to find a card of the girl I choose that fits the orientation of the original card’s head. That’s where most of my projects ended, when I couldn’t find any.

I found a nice head to fit the card. Yay! I place it by making it bigger/smaller, swap from left to right and erasing whatever is not needed. In most card, including this one, the placing of the head would be done. However, in some cards, I have to redraw additional hair as it is cut by shoulders or other objects. It was the case with my first Pareo edit, where I had to move and redraw a little one of her pigtail. I also have to make sure, like in this card, that there is some hair that stays behind translucide parts of the card (here, the chocolate bag and hat later).

Now we place accessories! Most of the time, it’s just a hat like in this one. I add shadows to the border so it feels more natural. Sometimes there’s also earrings to add. In more " extreme " cases like Valentine Pareo, I’ll have to change the colours of existing accessories. Pareo’s bow was originally blue on the Pareo card, but I did my best to redraw it red.

Now the most fun part: " filters ". I say filter, but I actually just apply different shades of colours to make the new face fit with the card. It’s already mostly done on this card. I added some pink to Ran’s red hair, some pink tone to her eyes and changed the shadows to match Chisato’s. Sometimes I also have to change the skin tone.

And there we go with the long and harsh job of erasing everything that doesn’t belong in the card anymore aka the hair. Sometimes it’s easier than others, depending on how thick the hair parts are and what background is behind. I am currently doing it on this card, as you can see. It’s quite messy, but I’m working with the right pigtail. It's simple but very long... I have to redraw the background and sometimes imagine what it can possibly look like.

When this’ll be done, I’ll do some last edit things (more filters, redrawing some things, etc.) and it’s done! I try to make sure I didn’t forget something on the way, which is most of the time the case, and I don’t see it before posting and then I see it and try to go as fast as possible to correct it and change the image…

That’s about what the process looks like… an edit can take 3 to 5 hours (most of the time more when I’m slow, which is… a lot of the time that’s why I listen to music while doing it) depending on the card and, especially, amount of erasing to do.

Hope you liked that and that you'll like this edit when it'll be done!

Can I just take a second to thank this community for not starting drama every 2 seconds? Everything is usually so chill here and even when something does happen no one gets threatened or harassed and I really appreciate that. Thank you all for keeping the peace :)

I know 2020 isn’t a year to be proud of nor is it a good year in general because of the COVID-19 pandemic causing havoc around the world, but I wanna express my gratitude to all the people who worked hard to bring us all the great and fantastic anime that came out of the year. Therefore, ya boi wants to make his own Anime Award of the Year for 2020 to commemorate the said infamous year. I know most of y’all are tired of me making anime-related posts, but I’m foremost an anime fanboy first, then a Bandori fan second. Therefore, I’m not being true to myself if I force myself to post things exclusive to Bandori, I hope y’all understand that. I’m not gonna lie, throughout 2020 I had strong desires of wanting to hang out with my friends or be in person when attending classes (online classes were a terrible experience for me). Regardless of how miserable 2020 was for me and the rest of y’all most likely, I kind of do appreciate being stuck at home for the majority of the year because I was given a chance to finally catch up with a lot of anime I would have never been able to watch if things were “normal”. Anyway, this “award” is for fun and it’s just my personal opinion. Free feel to disagree with me. It’s totally fine. I wanted to do this mainly due to the fact that I heavily disagree with Crunchyroll’s Pepega choices a lot when they announce their anime awards because it’s either way too mainstream or they haven’t watched enough shows to make a half-decent anime award. Apologies if my anime posts look bland, I’m too lazy to add links or pictures to each of the categories (plus, most people don’t care anyway, so it’s not worth my effort to make it look nice), so bare with me.

Alright, without further ado, let’s get right to it. Ikuzo!

Winter 2020

• Best New Series: Jibaku Shounen Hanako-kun (I’ve heard a lot of good things about it even though I didn’t watch it yet; I swear I’ll watch it soon, I promise)

• Honorable Mention(s): BanG Dream! 3rd Season - “Yume wo Uchinuku Shunkan ni!” by Poppin’Party (I’m not putting it as one of the best ending because this is a Bandori site, I genuinely think the anime community are underrating this song and it’s truly one of the best endings of Winter 2020)

Spring 2020

• Best New Series: Kami no Tou (According to my close friend who’s a huge fanboy of the series, the adaptation could have been A LOT better and the original manhwa is near “masterpiece” worthy, so I’ll trust him and give my vote to this show)

• Honorable Mention(s): Fruits Basket 2nd Season
• Best Boy: Yuu Ishigami (Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai)

• Underrated Series: Otome Game no Hametsu Flag shika Nai Akuyaku Reijou ni Tensei shiteshimatta… (Not really underrated per se, but I didn’t hear too much people talking about this show when it was airing, hence why I gave my vote to this show)

• Honorable Mention(s): Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai?: Tensai-tachi no Renai Zunousen - "DADDY! DADDY! DO! feat. Airi Suzuki" by Masayuki Suzuki (Look. I love the song, but it’s being vastly overrated by the anime community)
• Best Ending: Kami no Tou - “SLUMP -Japanese ver.-” by Stray Kids

• Overrated Series: The God of High School (Absolutely garbage and an epic failure of an adaptation)
• Underrated Series: None (There’s a clear divide for shows at top for this season and the bottom; there’s a f*ck ton of trash that aren’t worth watching this season)
• Best Opening: Enen no Shouboutai: Ni no Shou - “SPARK-AGAIN” by Aimer
• Honorable Mention(s): Sword Art Online: Alicization - War of Underworld 2nd Season - “ANIMA” by Reona (I’m not gonna lie, I abhor SAO with a passion, but this song is an absolute banger)

• Overrated Series: Kamisama ni Natta Hi (Absolute trainwreck of a series; ten billion percent the worse Jun Maeda original series I’ve ever seen)
• Underrated Series: D4DJ First Mix (Hidden gem of the season; just for context, this show started out with a 6.89 rating on MAL when it first aired and it ended with a respectable 7.70 rating recently)
