The Best Illustrator Awards $100
Handle: Burg
Comment from the Applicant:
It's Valentine's Day and there's love in the air! Tsurumaru and Ichigo knew today was going to be special, but little did Ichigo know, they BOTH had planned something REALLY special.
Comment from the Judges:
Their faces are very expressive, full of life…! Watching these two adorable looks makes me so happy. I can feel a true love between the two from the detailed work such as a decoration of crane on the flowers or the present ‘strawberry’, which Tsurumaru is holding! Happily Ever After! (*‘ω‘ *)
Special Awards (Boss Awards) $50
Handle: S-Bunny
Comment from the Applicant:
I thought that draw a humanized version of the page can be fun and it was! I hope your likes it and happy valentine!
Comment from the Judges:
Thank you for personifying Otaku Republic’s kitty! It’s been six years since we started this website and the kitty has never had its name before. But I’m pretty sure that the kitty is excited to be personified!
We’ll try hard on making this site even better so our customers will be satisfied.
Special Awards (Saori Awards) $50
Handle: J.B.
Comment from the Applicant:
I heard that in Japan they give chocolates to each other so I decided to draw tsurugi and tenma together with tenma giving tsurugi chocolates.
Comment from the Judges:
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) so nice Love…💛
Award of Excellence $30 Six People
Handle: Jante
Comment from the Applicant:
This is Ryuji Sakamoto from the game Persona 5! It's a Joker x Ryuji picture. Joker gave him a toybear dressed as him, chocolates and flowers.I drew this in Paint Tool Sai.
Comment from the Judges:
The teddy bear wearing the Joker’s mask is very cute. Ryuuji was disappointed because he couldn’t get any chocolate from the girls. Then Joker gave ‘friendship’ chocolate to Ryuuji. This kind of story (which I just imagined) heals my mind.
Handle: Ry Thae
Comment from the Applicant:
The character is Nero Claudius, I hope you like it!
Comment from the Judges:
The illustration is so beautiful that we thought that it was the official picture!! I not only like his embarrassing face but I also like the uniform-looking!! It’s so cute…! I’d love to get the choco!
Handle: Asoeiki
Comment from the Applicant:
FFXV Valentine fanart.Gladiolus x Ignis.グラディオラス x イグニス.
Comment from the Judges:
The background is so special! It’s good that we cannot see Cladiolus’s mind!
Handle: Theddy
Comment from the Applicant:
I drew the male Phantom Thieves, the heart stealers, from Persona 5. I'm sure Valentine's would be the best day for them to get to work~! Hopefully they have some luck...

By watching Mona’s happy-looking face, we can imagine her saying “I got the chocolate too~” He must have had a fun Valentine’s Day~!

Sasuke & Naruto: Valentine's Day - We don't have to be sweethearts, but it's not lonely when I'm here with you.

Even though it’s a simple illustration, we recognize Naruto and Sasuke right away. It’s an artistic work, indeed! I want it to be my T-shirt.
Handle: Criis-chan

I made a mini comic with Sonia and Gundam for this Valentine's day and wanted to give it a try!

Shy Tanaka is adorable! I’m jealous! Sonia-chan, give some choco to me too!
