This is a Winning Heroine! Fern Drawn by Imigimuru from "Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!" Sparks Major Reactions - "I'm So Happy"

The official X account for the anime "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" was updated on February 4th. A support illustration for the second season broadcast by manga artist Imigimuru, known for illustrations in "Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!" and character design for "Lycoris Recoil," was released and has generated significant buzz.

The published image depicts Fern, a main character from the series. Against a vibrant pink background, Fern is drawn prominently with her long hair flowing, making a peace sign with a somewhat composed expression. In the upper left of the illustration, handwritten-style pop text reading "Congratulations Season 2 Broadcast Start" is added, making it a piece that highlights Imigimuru's delicate and adorable touch.

In response to this post, fans expressed enthusiastic praise with comments such as "However, this illustration is far too good" and "I'm so happy that Imigimuru-sensei drew Fern." Additionally, since Imigimuru handles illustrations for "Makeine: Too Many Losing Heroines!," many unique reactions interweaving both works have been submitted, such as "This is a winning heroine," "Can Fern become a winning heroine?" and "With this, she's a victorious heroine."

The anime "Frieren: Beyond Journey's End" is based on the manga of the same name serialized in "Weekly Shonen Sunday," with original story by Kanehito Yamada and artwork by Tsukasa Abe. Set in the world "after" the Demon King's defeat, it depicts the story of Frieren, a mage who has lived for over 1000 years, embarking on a "journey to understand people," and the original comic has won numerous manga awards. Furthermore, the first season of the TV anime began broadcasting in 2023, and the work continues to gain numerous fans both domestically and internationally.
