Aoi Ashito of Ao Ashi (Fan art)

in The Anime Realm10 months ago



It's been a while since I actually made a fan art, but I couldn't help it because Ashito is so cute. Have you ever watched or read AO ASHI?

It's a soccer anime and is very fun and exciting to watch.

A few years before the anime was released in 2022, I was already following the manga alongside Blue Lock and a baseball manga called BUNGO. I really hoped for them to be animated and my wish came true. Both Ao Ashi and Blue Lock released an anime version in the same year.

Last week, I binged read Ao Ashi from the beginning and finally caught up with the latest chapter 360. Now, I'm in the state of hunger for more of it again. Anyway, let me show you my "Aoi Ashito" fan art.

Now, who is Ashito?

He's the main character of the anime called Ao Ashi. The story started in his final soccer game as a junior high school student in Ehime. He's known for being self-centered and unpredictable. He's basically a one-man team. However, he's easily angered and was removed from the game causing his team to lose.

While losing all hope and reflecting on his actions, he met Fukuda Tatsuya, a former professional soccer player. The latter invited him to the tryout in a J-youth team in Tokyo as he has seen potential in Ashito.

Their fateful encounter ignited the start of Ashito's struggles as he delve deeper in the world of soccer.

So far, the anime has one 24-episode season. It was very exciting to watch. Though it's not as popular as Blue Lock, but if you're into playing or watching soccer, you'd surely enjoy it as well. It has realistic gameplays and tactics, so it's more relatable. I love both of them, though. :)


Going back to my fan art, let me show you a few progress shots below. :)

Here's a rough sketch using a pencil on my sketchpad. :)

After partially erasing the pencil sketch, I started coloring using my colored pencils.

I was getting kind of impatient, so I used markers and colored pencils for the jersey. I made this during my break time, so I didn't have much time and patience to continue with just colored pencils. haha

Using a pen, I did some finishing touches to emphasize the facial features and the hair. :)

And it's done! :)
Aside from Ao Ashi (manga), I also caught up with Ao Ashi: Brotherfoot which focuses on Ashito's older brother, Shun. It only has eight chapters for now, but I'm excited to read it because Shun is also a sweetheart. Perhaps, I should make an Aoi Shun fan art next time! :D

Thanks for checking! See you around!

me encanta, un hermoso trabajo!


I love it, beautiful work!

Thank you so much! Glad you like it! ^^

It seems that you really like spokon and the truth is that I understand you, these are usually very funny and in particular I feel identified since I like to play soccer.

Your fan-art is great, it's an excellent work. Thanks for sharing it with us.

I sure do... Though there are still a bunch of sports anime or manga to watch and read. Hahaha And I've watched some of them several times. I've watched a lot of soccer anime, but ironically, I've never really checked out Captain Tsubasa. 😅😂 I should watch one of the versions someday.

Thank you so much. :)

I'm not a big fan of Captain Tsubasa either, but I do remember Hungry Heart very fondly.

I've watched Hungry Heart twice. It was fun and Kyosuke is an amazing singer soccer player! haha

Yaaay!!! 💯🙌

that’s very cool he’s looking really good you have done a great job! Keep it up 💖

Thanks a bunch! ^^ Will do so. :D

hello, how well you draw, I wish I could draw at least half of that, hahahaha, I haven't done it for a long time and I think I've lost the practice hahaha.

every new review you do, confirms me that you like sports anime, hahaha, do you practice any of them?

a hug in the distance

You can do it! I started as pretty awful at drawing, but somehow it became decent as I practiced more... though I don't really draw as often as I used to. I want to get back to this hobby, though. :)

hahah... yes, I'm a sucker for sports anime. :) I used to play basketball and badminton with my cousins when I was younger. We also play soccer and volleyball (without the rules) for fun. hahaha I miss doing those stuff with them, tbh. xDD

I remember manga when I was in highschool. What a talented artist you are!

Which manga did you read?? :)
Thank you so much.. ^^

Finally you made a fan art I was looking forward to your post when you said that you will try to make anime fan art in future. You did a great job 👏🏼.

Yeah... I was inspired to make one because of your posts... :D
Thank you so much... ^^

Really... thanks for your appreciation 😊.
It will keep me motivated to do more.

Let's enjoy both anime and creating fan arts!!
