That Distance...

So this is it.

Arata-Chihaya-Taichi.
who can't love this three childhood friends?

Chihaya, the beauty (in vain...) who's been admiring Arata as a karuta god all along; Taichi, the good-looking role-model student who's helplessly in love with chihaya since childhood (YOU SHOULD GO TELL HER FOR GOD'S SAKE AND SO CHIHAYAFURU HAPPILY ENDS /SHOT); Arata, the karuta genius who adores chihaya and taichi equally

so I draw them like that.... I feel there's still an unnoticeable distance between Arata and the other two. They won't be able to be like what they used to be back in their childhood
but still, I root for Chihaya x Taichi. too bad Arata, you're not showing up by chihaya's side as much as Taichi is

for those who don't watch or read this yet, just go search Chihayafuru... this series needs more love!

and last, sry for bad proportion and colorings
