Hello mun? Was it a coincidence that the Kurosians are known as the “black dragons” and the word, Kuro, means black in Japanese? Or nah? (P.S. you are the best artist ever!)

OOC : Dyaaaaaaaaw you butt ❤

Honestly I wish I had been that clever, I so wish I do, because that would make sense right? 

Unfortunately, I’m a huge derp and didn’t make that connection when I first came up with the Kuros. It was before I really got into learning about the Japanese culture. It would make so much more sense if I had in fact named them after the Japanese word for black but…

I got the name from a chopped up word in a Pogo song -3-

Pogo is an awesome artist on youtube you mixes movies, tv shows, etc, to make songs. Bootyful, bootyful songs ;u; I used to listen to his work while I drew, often attempting to sing along only there were no real words, it was all mashed up x,D

I was listening to one song called “Toyz Noise” based off of Toy Story, and while singing along with it, there’s a part where Woody says “Kurosh” or “Nik-kurosh” (which you can here around 1:53). Something about that word stayed with me when I made the Kurosians x,D

But eventually I found out that Kuro means black in Japanese, and holy crap I nearly slammed my face into a table. IT WOULD BE SO MUCH MORE CLEVER IF IT WAS INTENTIONAL, but in truth, it’s all because of a Pogo song about Toy Story x,D

Fun fact! x,D
