Description This is Gilbert from "Kaze to Ki no Uta", one of the best yaoi mangas ever, if not THE best ever^^~
The boy is an epitome of beauty and fragility of thereof~
I tried to render it in my own style and hope you enjoy~
Reference for the pose from Gackt's photo but nothing more~

"Kaze to Ki no Uta" - the song of the wing and trees.
I'm sure if you look it up, you'll find the english subbed version as well!

Yeh, sadly the animation is based on only first two volumes or so of a 17 volume manga ^^. and of course manga is not available in English.

But it's really good, well for the record - first ever yaoi to actually talk about sexual themes. Author is Takemiya Keiko - if you'd like to look it up. Recently her other work had been adapted into animation TERRA E... not yaoi though.

It's nice to see someone interesting in KazeKi, always pleasure to talk to the fellow fan.

Same here. It’s sad that it’s so hard to find Kazeki fans.

With US puritan views manga will hardly ever be translated, but anime is also not legal and in very poor quality and only tells like first volume of the 17 volume story...

I’ve seen the anime and I also read the first 4 volumes of the manga (that’s all you can find in English). You’re right, the anime is too short but it’s more than nothing for those who can’t read Japanese since the manga will never be officially translated.

They started Gilbert’s past but didn’t finish yet (the 5th volume is not finished yet), Serge’s past has yet to come.

Doesn’t matter I want to read it anyway. I hope it won’t take too many years until they finish the entire manga.

Wow. I always imagined Manga faculty to be only fun, you know: to study the best mangaka ever, to learn how to draw and stuff like that. It always sounded better than math and science, but I guess all faculties are the same in the end….boring.

AoiShu In reply to Shyene [2010-06-14 06:07:40 +0000 UTC]

Nope, it's a lot of fun, but you also have to learn gender studies, semiotics, social studies... there are a lot of angles for analysis.

Oh yess, Gilbert is one of the most aesthetic and decadent characters ever written, and how GOOD he is written. One of my top faves of al times.

I'm really glad to find someone who also shares my passion for old school yaoi.

Thank you so much for the kind words.

hell, yeah! kaze too ki no uta was the first yaoi/BL manga I ever heard about. but I couldn't find it anywhere (I mean, I was 13... XD) so I started to read other stuff *cough* and now, one year ago I finally found it. The anime is nice, too... but they left out some of my favourite scenes... >.<

you're completely right to use the word "decadent" for Edward. it's like the boy was made for this word and it's meaning... a dekadent, tender flower that had been crushed too young... oh my gosh, I'm pants in trying not to sound hilarious! XD... but I hope you got my message.^^

I wrote my first course-paper in Uni on this manga...

I'm glad you like my work. I guess decadence and aestheticism are two main adjectives to talk about early yaoi. There are such grand examples....wah..

I can't find this manga D:<
But I watch the anime *O* I think it was very good.It was very sober,sad,and addictive.I really like it.

Do you use watercolors?

About the picture:
I love the way you draw his hair <3 They look so...so...cool
The shading of the skin is...strange?Especially on his chest.
