#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya’s original, Faustmarch Etoinoix. A more resilient man than his succeeding iterations, but also the one carrying the most guilt for his actions. Despite this, his idealism and love persists, even after death. - a doctor that made a pact with a devil in exchange for the secret to resurrection - his world was struck by a peculiar plague that made empty husks out of people-- while their bodies were alive, they had no soul. to “resurrect” them, he gained access to alternate universes and pulled the souls from these worlds, transferring them into the empty husks. this inadvertently leads to his world ending - his last waking moments were spent in a frantic attempt to send his wife moirae away from the end of the world, and his last words were promising to find her again in their next lives - the origin of all manychiyas Faust’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 5 Vindictive = 0 Idealistic - 5 Mischievous = 1 Burdened = 2

the (what should be!) last ichiya of the project…! this is ichiya in his first life, so i call him og ichiya ww i have a lot of feelings for him...

December illustration for Ichiya. A man stands in the middle of a white void as a gentle breeze passes over him. He holds a glowing white pinwheel in front of him, smiling gently. There is infinite nothingness, only an endless blinding expanse that surrounds him-- and surrounds you. In the fading light, he stands not with a farewell, but with the promise of meeting again.

last one for the year :)

[bad end]
#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya’s bad end, Ichiya, who also goes by March in the afterlife hellscape he created for his sister, Kanna. In this universe, Ichiya and Kanna are full of spite towards each other-- a relationship irreparable after Kanna’s accident and their parents’ treatment towards their children afterwards. Kanna’s accident becomes the one point in their life that changes everything. - a dead man lost in the void due to committing a great sin, unable to find salvation and unable to move on - a known novelist when he was still alive - he lurks in a dark emptiness and constantly beholds the many ichiya's in different worlds, times, and spaces - out of immense guilt, he communicates his [bad end] to [canon]ichiya so that this ichiya can avoid the same fate - has never met yuemi throughout his entire waking life Ichiya/March’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 0 Vindictive = 5 Idealistic - 0 Mischievous = 0 Burdened = 5

bad end ichiya…! because of him i managed to justify and make all of my self-indulgent au ichiyas be an important part of his canon ghsjfdsk his illustration has always sat at the back of my mind ever since i first made him

#manychiya2025 #kisekuro #sanarehouse

November illustration for Ichiya. A dead man, transformed by his hatred and guilt into a demon bereft of salvation and freedom, watches over an alternate life where he is happy and loved by a woman he’s never met his entire lifetime. The vision stirs no feelings of melancholy or envy, only a dull wonder at a life that could’ve been-- that /is/, somewhere where he doesn’t exist. In the dark expanse of space surrounding him, visions of friends and family and unfamiliar lifetimes of bliss float around him-- not to taunt, but as if to give him an innocent glimpse, a dream-like idea, of lives suffered, but also better lived. In his palm, a steadfast, ever unyielding love-- him in the arms of a pink haired woman, both of them smiling happily with each other. By the crown of his head, a faded pinwheel, a life of hope and faith. Near his heart, unfamiliar longtime friends-- a cheerful man with a cap, a tall man with messy hair, and a strong-willed gray haired woman at the very back. If he looks ahead, an image of his sister, hale and healthy, living a longer life as a doctor than they both did in this lifetime. And far and beyond, a vague vision of a girl in twin tails and dark pinks.

a guy,,,
#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya as the incubus, Faust-- a quiet and bookish man, who charms people with his theater acting and intelligence. He is doing his best to live as quiet a life as he can have, constantly repenting for his identity. - an incubus who received an interesting book of heresy regarding different worlds and timelines from an anonymous donor, who he is trying to search for - at the same time, he is doing his best to manage his immense attraction towards a local nun that resembles a woman constantly plaguing his dreams - was left in an orphanage from a young age, and upon learning that he is some form of demon, he resolved to stay away from his real family - as an incubus, he feeds on attention from people and is able to read minds. he has kept his wings hidden through learned magicks - has a childhood friend who has steadfastly kept his real self secret Faust’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 4 Vindictive = 3 Idealistic - 1 Mischievous = 3 Burdened = 1

here comes incubus ichiya, his story with yuemi in this verse is one of my faves!! a calmer, less hot-tempered ichiya-- at least on the surface ww

#manychiya2025 #kisekuro #sanarehouse

September illustration for Ichiya. Incubus Ichiya is punished and lit on fire while carrying a bouquet of lilies that nestle a skull, black cloth draped over it and spilling on his arms. Ichiya holds a mask of his face, a smiling expression and black eyes painted on it, while his own face is a dark, empty void. Fire dances around him as he stands, alone and gone, in the middle of a dark empty theatre-- his life, dreams, and love lost. Red curtains glowing in the fire get ready to close themselves on him, to end his charade and finish his last show.

#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya’s manifestation of guilt and yearning, presented as a child carrying two dolls named Faust (a dark blue doll with demon horns and angel wings) and March (a light blue doll with demon wings and angel halo) - a young boy lost in dreams and wishes; he carries around two of his greatest and most talkative friends, faust and march - conveniently present when he doesn’t need to be, often suddenly appearing from the corners of the scenery - quiet and very easy to scare off, but positively responds to getting his head pat - faust and march act as his proxy sometimes Icchi’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 0 Vindictive = 0 Idealistic - 0 Mischievous = 0 Burdened = 0

babeychiya !! manifestation of ichiya’s guilt and yearning… this chiyachamz is related to another ichiya later this year hehe

#manychiya2025 #kisekuro #sanarehouse

August illustration for Ichiya. A young Ichiya pulls away one of his dolls from its counterpart; the doll is dark blue, with light blue angel wings and demon horns. Beside it is a light blue doll with a dark blue halo and demon wings. They’re bathed in light, and images of paper airplanes dreamily float and dance around them.

#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya’s alternate self, Ichiya, a vampire doing his best to live as normal a life as possible despite his immortality and bloodthirst being anything but. - a young vampire in his 100s who was accidentally turned after an ambush on him and his sister by a rogue vampire, leaving his sister dead from the attack and him transforming into the immortal he is now - currently, he has taken on an identity of a college student deeply interested in theater and film and is an anonymous blogger reviewing various media online - tries a little too hard to seem normal by acting extroverted and carefree - harbors deep disgust and loathing for all vampires, so he does his best to feed on hospital blood bags through an associate instead Faust’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 5 Vindictive = 1 Idealistic - 5 Mischievous = 5 Burdened = 2

WAHEE VAMPIRE ICHIYA!!! the slut ichiya we didnt need… this is one of the first aus i made for him, so he’s somewhat. established?? very different from other recent ichiyas ww

#manychiya2025 #kisekuro #sanarehouse

July illustration for Ichiya. An Ichiya that was turned into a vampire as he lives in the modern times, lounging by stylized stairs while eating a lollipop. Behind him, caricatures of red monsters smiling sinisterly hide suspiciously behind cartoon and brightly-colored buildings. They, as if a theatrical backdrop, are framed by red curtains. Round icons pop and point to specific parts of Ichiya. One points to his mouth, where a blood bag is shown. One points to his hand, where a bloody handprint outlined in purple ink is depicted. One points to his foot, where a simple doodle of trees, as if to depict a forest, with black flying bats around it, are shown.

#manychiya2025

A fullbody of Ichiya’s alternate self, Faust, a man who works as a diener out of convenience for his newly adopted demon, Mephisto. The partnership is unwelcome, the contract made only to soften the blow of loss, but Faust unforgivingly keeps Mephisto on a leash until their job is done. - a deiner by day, a demon babysitter at night. he adopted his demon, Mephisto, from his sister, who he recently lost. he loses his fiancé in an unfortunate accident not long after - he is still relatively new to the demon babysitting business and is still under a mentor’s guidance - unsatisfied and unhappy with the current state of his world, working clearly towards changing it with whatever means necessary - reads up on necromancy in his free time Faust’s stats: Self-sacrificial = 3 Vindictive = 4 Idealistic - 4 Mischievous = 0 Burdened = ???

ichiya is peak angry in this au, so he’s super cold and biting and has tiddies to keep his cold heart warm

#manychiya2025 #kisekuro #sanarehouse

May illustration for Ichiya. An alternate Ichiya, who works as a deiner interested in necromancy, quietly lays in a bed of lilies. With closed eyes, he folds his hands over his chest, and with these prim and proper hands, he delicately holds one glowing lily. A blue gradient gothic decoration frames the piece. If you look hard enough, a smiling two-toned face can be seen, watching Ichiya.
