Chidori Kaname

2025.10.21


I added some Full Metal Panic songs to my current playlist and it made me super nostalgic for the anime.  Kaname was a lot of "firsts" for me.  Fumoffu and TSR made me a Kyoto Animation fan before I knew who Kyoto Animation even was, and Fummofu is high on my list of best openings of all time.  She was a big part of Yukino Satsuki being one of my favorite voice actors and I'm pretty sure the design kicked off my love for double-breasted school uniforms.  <3

A lot of the FMP promo art had the girls sporting guns, so drawing her with Prime's Ion Blaster was the first pose that popped into my head.  I went with MP-1's rifle since that was the new hotness around when the anime were airing.  I've drawn Chidori a couple times but this is the first piece that I've ever walked away happy.  I think it's because I didn't really try to emulate the anime style at all (especially those early 2000's icicle bangs), which is something I'm trying to be more and more conscious of avoiding.
