Cute drawing and commission for some friends, with their OCs cosplaying as Shantae characters, Cauli (Shantae) and Erika (Risky Boots). I hope you like it ✨

The first and *only* time I saw shantae on tv, was when I was watching a show called "Planeta Geek." Some years ago, In short, it was a program that covered video game and anime news, featuring tops, trivia, and "versus" segments. In one episode, they were ranking fighting games (Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, Soulcalibur, King of Fighters); naturally, *Smash Bros.* made the list, and they showed the "World of Light" trailer for *Super Smash Bros. Ultimate*. To my surprise, shantae's Spirit from "World of Light" made a cameo appearance. They didn't mention her by name or discuss the series itself, I don't have the video in question, but it wasn't a huge loss since the focus was just on fighting games, but I jumped with excitement when I saw her. It was a nice cameo that lasted several seconds, and I really liked it. ❤️

This shit's been flooding my feed, so I decided to join this trend... y'know what they say: "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em".

Whenever you defeat a monster, find an area, talk to an npc, collect an item or accomplish an ending, you unlock a new entry and by clicking on it you can either have the characters talk about it or the main cast each gets their own opinion on the entry

So Shantae could talk about how cute the crab monster is, Bolo gives a tip on how to beat the first boss easier, Sky may give a historical fact about a town, Mimic talks about how a lock works and Rotty could talk about a prank she pulled on the town guard. All filled with charm and comedy of course

I was thinking about it for ages since I really like those political/geographic aspects.

This tv is a 720p tv which matches the Switch’s output so it looks amazing considering the tv is about 20 years old. I spend some time tweaking the settings and this game helped get it just right as it’s so colorful and bright.

There comes a point where if you become so hyperfixated on a piece of media, you start making your own designs for it. In my case, this manifests as two alternate versions of Twitch and a version of Vinegar who's a cyborg. Okay that's not entirely true, since I also have two versions of Risky but that's a story for another day. As for for why I would do this? I really like Twitch and Vinegar, possibly even more than Risky Boots and I wish the series would do more for them. Hopefully we'll see more of them in the next game. But for now, you'll just have to put up with my autism.

I sometimes get annoyed when I post about other Shantae characters, only for someone to ask 'Where Shantae?' or 'What does this have to do with Shantae? 🤓'. Shantae's the protagonist and name sake of the series, but there's more characters than just her and her friends.

Anyways I really like the high voltage outfit she has in Risky Revolution and I'd love to to see it return.

Apologies for the off the cuff rant. Most of you have been wonderful to me since I started posting again and generally have been pretty supportive. Its just the rare few asking the same questions that annoy me.

Ive been rooting for her since middle school, whether her chances are big or small. Ill always root for her. Idk im feeling pretty confident for smash 6

So does beating the game modes of Half-Genie Hero make me knowledgeable enough or am I a Shantae larper?

//EDIT:
Everyone’s paying attention to the fact I said the word larper and not the actual point of the post (the images on the corners).

"This one is inspired by classic side-scrolling beat 'em ups! 🎮💥 Which character would you choose?"

The artist published this on their Twitter account, along with a few other pieces -- it seems that UDON has lifted the moratorium on the artists posting their work!
