And Now For Something Completely Different

I know what you're thinking. What's gotten into Bill? Where are all the babes? Right??
Well no need to worry, the usual bevy of cute females will return. But first, I must explain myself.
During my wife's youth in Japan, she and many young Japanese girls her age were obsessed with a boy band by the name of Hikaru Genji.

These are they.



And it was her birthday surprise, so there you go. I don't normally draw Japanese boy bands, but I have to admit it was a fun change of pace.

PFFFFTTTT HAHAHAHA! I didn't know you did these for Iku! My God, pink headband guy is the best. Think you can do a pass on good ol' NKOTB, circa their 'Hangin' Tough' era? XD
