Is it really fine for me to use her!? The feeling kept nagging at me, but... I figured that if I'm doing this anyway, it's more interesting to have her appear, or even unnatural if she doesn't...
As a compromise with myself, I made her design a bit different in this unofficial work.Colder colors (other than her hair)Food!

Mysterious cords
(I really like this kind of thing)Full body: Coloring (Black and white similar to Oni Kasen)
Upper body: Buns, collar, sleeves
Lower body: Those cords on her calvesI tried to make sure there'd always be some changes visible whether it was a full-body shot or a close-up.Opens up like thisNo flower pattern on the backMost characters have pretty long skirts that don't show their knees, so I need to put my all into these ones.Animal colors.
As servants of Kasen, they all have red eyes too.Pastry-like paletteSorry the length of the tabard, placement of the flower etc. seem to change...
Please just blame it on the angles.Coloring differences (roughly)UnofficialNo big changes to her silhouetteTied with cords from the tabardThis isn't any actual flower, just "a flower ornament".Chinese buttons- Various dumplings
(freshwater shrimp, beans, corn...)
- Xiaolongbao
- Steamed dumplings
- Fried spring rolls
- Smaller meat bunsShe'd made too much, so she gave Komachi a large meal... surely. Of course she wouldn't eat that much by herself.Used pretty liberally as decorations, making the shape of the collar also different from the usual Chinese dress.
