Artwork (with permission of the artist Piyu) of Kemono no Souja Erin: Erin & Lilan (2019-09-19).
One of my favorite coming of age anime series and Novel is (based on) Nahoko Uehashi's 'The Beast Player': Based in a kind of middle-aged fantasy world there is Erin, who grows up after her mother died, and learns to communicate with magical beasts in a kingdom only she can save.
Although there are no asian martial arts here, the story, every-day passages and Erin's character (on her way in becoming and being a teacher) are wonderful.
Also, a german translation years ago covered only parts of the anime but this spring there was a new english translation that ranges till Erin's adulthood.
The stunning original artwork captures Erin and Lilan, to whom she became a kind of mother-like figure and the interaction and scenery are just wonderful *_* Therefore, I am so happy that I receives the permission to recolor it - the recoloring was fun and I also love the result ^^
