A very nice pic :) But to criticize the composition a bit - it would of worked better if most of Nico wasn't obscured behind a sack - makes it hard to see what is what without studying it for a few seconds. At a glance it seems like Nico has a huge ass.

@Elevown I think she was in the sack, like as a present to Maki.
Tfw one of your favorite artists ships your ships. <3

^Ah - that would make more sense on the composition - but then I have to say it's a bit badly implemented - because I didn't even realise that. Shouldn't have hid her body behind Maki's leg, and tilted the bag so we could see into it's interior some and clearly see her body going into it.
Its a minor point though and I like the artwork otherwise.

I know this isn't the uploader or site's fault, but... come the hell on. Halloween literally just happened. Christmas is almost two months away! This is way too early for Christmas themed stuff...

^who cares its cute and yuri
If they were to get really good Halloween pics rn, even if Halloween's already passed, i dont see why not upload them too. It'd be sad if holiday/event-themed stuff were only to be uploaded around the time of those days
XenonVoid
Nov 4, 2016 6:36PM
^Sad? How so? If it were done that way, then we'd get a crapton of new pics each major holiday that wouldn't seem out of place to anyone looking at them.
And to clarify, I wouldn't mind pics late or early by a few days. It just bugs me when I start seeing holiday themed pics weeks to months away from said holidays.

It's likely uploaded regardless of when the holiday is
It's sad because with that logic, we'd never get to see/have the pics uploaded during the rest of the year
Found a good Halloween pic? Well too bad, keep it in reserve until next year, it seems
Valentine's pic? Rip, 7 more weeks to go

Yes, but then you get far more pics on or near the actual holiday itself. I have the patience to wait until uploading it makes more sense. The ones most likely to complain about exclusively timely holiday uploads are people who have little to no patience.

^Some holiday themed pics can release any time - like valentines - because its more about the idea than then day - for the rest, I feel they are better released at roughly the right time of year (a snowy xmas pic seems a bit silly if released in June). The vast majority ARE drawn and released near their holidays - and I feel 1 month before december (the whole month is basically the Christmas month) isn't THAT early.
And saying Halloween just happened isn't really relevant because outside of the USA it is a tiny holiday not celebrated in most of the world. Even here in the UK - its birthplace, it's hardly much - in Japan it is almost none existent. Christmas IS the closest fairly significant international holiday for them.

Part of the problem is that a lot of holiday pics get posted by the artist on the actual holiday, so by the time it gets submitted and the poor staffer who sorts through them gets to it, the holiday might be over.
Also, Hallowe'en is celebrated similarly in Canada to the US. And we all know that Xmas is a whole different experience in Japan.

@Nezchan: that's why I said that within a few days is fine and totally makes sense. It's not like all site-relevant pics on the internet just magically appear here the moment they're uploaded, I understand that someone has to search and find the pic, someone has to suggest the pic get uploaded here, and someone has to make sure it's okay to upload all before it can appear. That's not what I was complaining about.
I was more complaining about how Christmas, a holiday which I dislike from a religious, celebrational and statistical standpoint (the last one because of depression rates during the season, which as a person who battles depression a lot I am acutely aware of) and think is entirely too popular all around the world is suddenly appearing in pictures a month and a half before the actual holiday. I can't exactly pretend a terrible holiday doesn't exist when it's staring me in the face on all my favorite sites, can I?
And I know that some people will argue that that's not what the holiday is about, but let's take a look at what it is actually about for a second. Spending time with loved ones is about the only good thing about it, and even that is usually more forced than genuine. Beyond that there's the inherent obligation that most people feel to buy everyone close to them obscene gifts that they often can't actually afford (supposedly it's about giving, but lots of people misinterpret that to mean buying gifts). Then there's the pressure to decorate your house, which can often be highly competitive and divisive in nature. Then there's the pressure felt by some to be more religious, to which I say: if you didn't care this much about your faith the rest of the year, don't make such a big deal about it now, it just looks weird and forced.
Not to mention how in a lot of countries around the world, depression and suicide rates skyrocket around Christmas time. The idea that it's a happy time of year is more an illusion or fairy tale than anything else, kept alive for marketing purposes.
Now, to all the people I've offended or saddened somehow, I do apologize. I'm just a jaded guy trying to voice his frustrations at a part of the world that will never change.
Also, Nez, if you feel the need to delete this, go ahead. I got it out of my system so I don't care if it stays around.

You are aware, I'm sure, that in Japan Christmas is a much different experience than it is in the west. In fact, most people just get up and go to work on Xmas morning. To the best of my knowledge, it's not actually an official holiday in most (all?) of the country. Christmas Eve, on the other hand, is considered a time for lovers to get together and spend a romantic evening, something similar to Valentine's Day but without the chocolate and such. Aside from the date and the name, there's little in common between the western and Japanese versions.

XenonVoid So you basically don't want to see Christmas related pictures, because you hate holiday. Reasonable reason to demanded entire site to act the way it won't upset you. Talk about self-centered.

@Nez: To be honest I didn't know all the specifics you just mentioned, though I was aware of it being different over there. Thank you for the the information. Although to add something I do know about Japanese Christmas, it seems to have a particular fixation on cakes instead of presents...
@Nevri: I was complaining about them, but I had no intention of asking or demanding that anything be changed. You misinterpreted the point of my message. If I actually intended to change it I wouldn't have bothered trying to do so via a comment on a single picture, because that's literally not how anything works.
