this was so lovely and so cute, despite the lack of text. i really love how all of it came together and managed to depict a sense of passing time (rip kinjou's schedule). also i love the code format and how it brought everything, the gradients and how much care and love that has obviously gone into each picture. <3

(but also arakita's lovingly rendered pecs and the beef on kinjou /fire emojis

maybe one day kinjou will teach him how to button his shirts or zip his jersey up properly)

Thank you!!

I definitely got carried away rendering Kinjou's butt. And legs. And all of him. How could I not?

I'm sure Kinjou finds Arakita's inability to close his shirts very distracting indeed :)

Oh wow, the way the colours evolved and got closer to one another -just like those two- until they matched was so neat! And the whole idea with the regular texts to fuku-chan and Kinjou's planning slowly accommodating to Arakita makes it really subtle and is juste great really.

PLUS THE ART IS SO GOOD, Arakita's smile on the last page makes me so happy aaaah

I'm screaming real hard right now.
The whole work is really graphic, the idea of their two colours melting together is interesting and doing that through scrolling truly gave a sense of progression ! I liked the fact that their relation building up is not explicit but rather conveying through schedule's change and texting to Fuku
All the art are so expressive, especially the last one : top tier ;;

Thanks so much!! We definitely wanted to go with our strengths - I'm really glad we were able to communicate what we love about the pairing.

I love the mixing two colors to make a brand new one idea so much!!!! The details in the linearts were so good. My favorite part was the transition from the second to last to the final picture, that and the shirts matching the background.

Great job you guys! All of the art was so good! props for the coding too!!

ooooooh man, the colors idea was so smart!!! really really loved arakita's texts but kinjou's schedules changes just killed me that was genius in a simple way!! very nice job with the coding too, I take my hat off to team kinara, its an amazing entry!

This was so simple (in layout and consumption- I'm sure putting it together was less so) and so charming! The art is so clean and nice, and the gradual color changes of the background was wonderful. I love Kinjou's hour and a half power nap (same, dude), and also how homework apparently goes out the window to hang out with Arakita. And that last picture! I'm so glad. This was so great

the power nap was Such a Great touch, we stan a guy that takes the time to rest.

This was so INCREDIBLY creative, I've never seen a single episode of Yowapeda and I'm freaking out at how cute this is!! The sliding panels as you scrolled were really aesthetically pleasing, and so were the different fonts for the texts/letters and Kinjou's schedule. Even their individual handwriting being so expressive was a great touch (and omg I'm SUCH a sucker for Little Things of Affection like Kinjou silently rearranging his clearly regimented schedule). And like everyone has said, the blending colors leading up that final art was so adorable and just had so much joy in it. Congrats you made me feel real Soft™.

As someone who knows nothing about coding or website building I'm in awe of projects like this, you all did an amazing job and should be ridiculously proud of yourselves. If/when I finally get around to Yowapeda I will absolutely be keeping an eye out for these guys to see them again!!

Thanks so much!!

I'm glad it was enjoyable without the background of canon! Sometimes it's the little things that show the biggest changes in a relationship <3

Obviously I highly recommend KinAra and all of Yowapeda and I eagerly await the day I can drag you down with us :3c

ahsdfkgjsh i will do my best to organise my thoughts about this cohensively—

i absolutely love the portrayal of this?? like the way your team chose to format this is lovely— it's easy on the eyes and highly visual, which played towards your team's strength! the lineart itself was soooo good, and the idea is very well thought-out; the effort you've put into this entry really shines through!!!

it was really cute how panel by panel, the colours started to change and move towards the colour green, and it further strengthened the development you could see in their relationship and symbolised the passing of time really well!!!

i have no clue about the characters (though they seem to be cute af??? i'm really curious about them now!!), but i loved the use of the schedule (cute character quirk!!) that went from organised and timely to being more messy (changes in plans + more time w arakita how lovely and cute!!!)

thank you for sharing these adorable boys with everyone; i'm so happy to have had a chance to view & appreciate this!!! ♡

What a wonderful idea. This is well presented. I loved the colours and the way to navigate the pictures, but I think what I loved the most was the way you showed their developing relationship in so few words. Kinjou's to do list and the crossings out, especially that last one where instead of homework he watched TV with Arakita was such a good hint.

I'm blown away by how well this site is put together! It's really cool! The art is gorgeous and the way the two came together into the same picture was just seamless! Awesome entry!

I love this??

Watching Shingo's schedule slowly change through the time they spent together was great. Especially the crossed out bits going from tutoring Arakita to just making sure he wakes up lmao. And how he goes from homework to just straight up watching tv with him. He sure got that captain to loosen up.

I really love this! From concept to execution it's just so perfect? I love how it started with blue and yellow and gradually transitioned to the same green. I love the story told in so few words. I love Kinjou's schedule and the way it changes to accommodate Arakita's presence in his life. That second one is SO CUTE, all the crossed-out stuff and what they've been replaced with and the pushing back his bedtime. Kinjou is suffering but it's really funny and cute, so. Sorry Kinjou. I love the artwork at the end, all smiles and wrapped up in each other. I only regret that I have never seen or watched Yowapeda so I can't appreciate this even MORE. But even though I don't know anything about the characters at all, I feel like I've learned about Kinjou and Arakita through this entry. What a lovingly-crafted glimpse into their university life!! Good job to your entire team!!

I love everything from the colors slowly changing and blending with the scrolling, to each character taking on the other’s characteristics until by the end they truly are the ‘green dream team.’ Plus kinara has always had a special place and the fact that I never thought of their old school colors blending to create the new one is just... BRILLIANT! ❤️

VERY cute. I'm not incredibly familiar with Yowapeda, but I do know who these two are, and I love that approach for the theme. Also, I love the way you can see they're getting together, just through a few texts and one very ruined schedule. That makes the art at the end even sweeter than it would be in isolation. Really really impressive art and writing and coding; altogether, just a fantastic piece. Great work!

WOW! Your layout and transitions are SO COOL. I loved the color pops of the art and the way the story unfolded just in their texts and images, but the actual mechanics of the two sides going in opposite directions impressed me so much.

You guys did AMAZING. Nice work!

takes deep breath

screams loudly

i love this so much!!!!! the scrolling was just so cool omg i cant, i love how it ended with the two halves of the image coming together! it really highlighted their growth in my opinion and i loved this take on the theme!!! so much!!! it was so creative and flails helplessly

i absolutely adored how you gave us snapshots on how their relationship evolved!! it was in the little things, like arakita going from kinjou to shingo-chan, and kinjous edits on his daily todo list. such little things but it really captured their personalities!!! also 'make sure arakita is awake' im dead??? that is so perfectly in character for both of them, arakita would absolutely be the one who always slept in and kinjou would definitely be the responsible one who has to wake him up, and never really minds if its him tbh

overall amazing job!! i cant even decide what to say about the art bc its just so gorgeous, i cant words on it. iisnjsa. thank you so so much for this!!!!! a new ship for me to be obsessed with;;;

I LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!! i dig the minimalistic look and the smooth transition of colours and their attitudes. it wasn't a text heavy entry at all, but you still managed to show the progress in their relationship so clearly <3

i really love your interpretation of colours and how sohoku and hakogaku combined into yonan <33

Oh man, this was such a delight to read. The art was amazing, the text and schedules were really nice to draw from and imagine how things might have panned out. The use of colour is also ESPECIALLY AMAZIN so GOOD JOB. It's just. So pretty. Seriously. Thanks so much for such a wonderful entry~!

This was so cute and beautifully put together.

Loved the texts and the notebook entries especially the evolving schedule. The artwork is beautifully done, simple but with great details. And OMG! that ending image and how they end up together with the green is so perfect!

Thanks so much!
I had to stop and scream about a dozen times as I was inking the last image, Kel did such a good job on it I cried a little

you guys NAILED the concept. everything here is so polished and complements perfectly.

there doesn't have to be many words, you guys told so much in just a few notes and pictures, it was brilliant. the code was clever, the art beautiful, especially the last one I'm SO FOND

this is such a top notch entry. what a great job guys

Oh wow, I LOVE how this was put together. It was so seamless and life-like. I like that it was told through Arakita's texts to Fuku, and that you can see the subtle change over time of their feelings for each other. Really creative, great work!

Coding: Great job with the coding! Everything was so smooth and looked really nice.

Art: It all looked really nice and was very pretty!

Story: I loved how the one’s schedule started all neat but then it ended up being completely ruined by the end, it was really cute to see the strikethroughs.

This was actually the first entry I read. And yet I can't believe I'm only commenting now. Shame on me.

I loved this. Every part of it. I actually took the time to read/watch/go through it twice the first time, and I've just gone through it again, both to get the feeling back and simply because it's such a nice ride (get it, ride? bike ride? ... I'll uh, show myself out)

I love how smoothly you transitioned the colors, so much so that I only actually grasped the fact that the colors had been gradually melding together on my second go. It's all so natural, and the little slices of life and communication we get to glimpse are, quite honestly, pure gold.

"It's the little things" Has always been one of my favorite expressions, and it's applied here so beautifully and seamlessly, accompanied by flawless art and - I just- my heart is so full of love and I don't even know who these gentlemen are.

(also, rip to that poor schedule. It's absolutely adorable though)

You've all done an amazing job and I quite honestly find it difficult to believe this was a cooperation with how well it's been executed. Everyone's passion and hard work truly shines through.

Don't tell anyone, but this is probably my favorite entry.

Congratulations, and thank you so very much for sharing ♥

P.S.: Thank you so very much for the small amount of words, my awful focus and attention span could never thank you enough.

Oh wow I loved the format!! The slides are smooth and the snapshots of their lives are so nice, I liked the schedule being re-used with some modifications to show how excited Kinjou was at the idea of spending time with Arakita. The colors were beautiful, and their faces very expressive. The last picture is perfect, they finally reunited!!

Good job, thanks for sharing :D

I'm yellin???? oh my gosh this is so neat! Y'all really worked together to create such a fun entry! The art is all super gorgeous? And the coding???? I'm on a Samsung Galaxy & it worked perfectly! Especially when they came together at the very end? Aaaah it was just super neat and nice. Great job everyone 10/10

Everything about this was so much fun and really cool! I loved how smooth this was, the colors were lovely, and just..........honestly, I'm trying not to just keyboard smash the rest of this comment cause I'm so excited.

I know next to nothing about these characters since I'm super new to the fandom and haven't gotten very far in, but I just need more after looking at this.

And I know I've said it before in a different fill but...kelta.......your art???? is my life. I am so in love with it.

omg thanks sdfghjk

Oooh, this was such a joy to look through! I especially love the concept of mixing two colors to make a new one and how this all depicted how their relationship progressed. Fantastic job!!!

Wow! This is one of the most creative storytelling formats I've ever seen, hands down, and the theme of color just fit so well in it. I love the gradient and the symbolism, as well as the fact that the story is really told through lists and texts. Everything works so smoothly together, and the piece feels so fun and real!

i love the fact that kinjou would schedule a power nap in. also love how his more recent schedule makes so much time for arakita

arakita using kinjou's first name and talking about how much he's improving with kinjou as a training partner is so so good. i love how he's the one to contact fukutomi in the first message while the second one is an apology for missing a call from him and the third is a whole declaraction of intent and closure on their hakogaku past

the changes in priorities as their lives intersect more is fantastic and the colour transitions are super lovely, the way the blues and yellows come through because of the transparency of the images!! wow their body language really opens up as you scroll down too

absolutely fantastically done!!
