>canon material

Well her canon stuff would be the Light Novels, the manga, and the anime. That's about it for canon. She also has a bunch of character songs, don't know where I'd file that under though

>fan works

There's tons of fan stuff for her. I'm a tiny bit picky when it comes to saving images though, so like if anything is off in some way that doesn't match the rest of the image I'll most likely not save it.

>supporting material and trivia

I'm guessing games and such can go into here as well. So she has a VN on the PSP which I played half way through since that's all of what was done with the english patch when I got it. Don't know if it's completed yet. She is also in a arcade fighting game that made its way to the PS3 and PS Vita. There's drama CDs too. Supporting info I have is her birthday, her height and weight I guess. I don't know if there's anything extra I'm missing that wasn't in the source material or anything.

>Do you create any of your own?

I've drawn before, I rarely get in the mood now but even if I were in the mood I wouldn't allow myself. I just know if I even get a single line wrong on Kirino I'll get pissed off at myself because I'll try to do it over and over again but I'll fail at it. But I actually was working on a AMV of her a while ago before I accepted my feelings for her but lost the sony vegas file. I also have thought about maybe writing stories or something involving her and I. But I don't know what I'd even begin with or what the genre could be or what it'd be about or anything.

>Canon

She's playable in a couple of games, a boss in a few, she's in a couple of the manga and things like PMiSS and CoLA.

Most of them are minor appearances but still nice to see. She's pretty scattered about her source outside of the ones she's playable.

>Fanon

Most of the fan art I partake in is pictures.

I'll read (sfw) doujins of her occasionally. Sadly a lot of these are shippy stuff or they sexualize her too much and it annoys me.

>Supporting Material

Sort of ties in to her canon material, she has quite a few minor roles.

To a degree I consider some stuff outside of her source supporting material. Things like Dhammapada and Tao te Ching. They're not directly related to her but by reading them I get to know her a bit better since they (or rather the schools of thought behind them) influenced her views on life.

>My content

I go through periods of making my own content. It'll be of varying quality. Mostly stuff like vectors and the occasional painting/drawing but I've been branching out into things like writing stories thank to Novelember.

I've not stopped that I've just been busy doing other creative work. It's not often I get a creative streak in me so when I do I try to drop what doesn't have to be done and tend to making stuff because these streaks usually only last a week or two and after that I just won't feel like it.

I'm hoping to get a lot of stuff done for her during this one. I've already done quite a bit but I'm not sure how much longer it'll last. It's only downhill from these past couple days and then I won't do much for months.

>canon material

She's a boss in SA and DS, a few of the manga, and cameos in a couple of the fighting games.

>fan works

It's Touhou, that says enough. I wish she got lots of loving vanilla like Okuu though. I'm not really into ero though, so I'm not too bothered, I mostly like fangames and cutesy 4koma style things, which there's plenty of starring her.

>supporting material and trivia

Not much canon.

>do you create any of your own?

All the time, I love writing cute little short stories about us.

>canon material

The Fate franchise is pretty big. It started out with the Fate/stay night visual novel that came out in 2004, and since then it's spawned a sequelFate/hollow ataraxia, a prequelFate/zero, several anime/manga adaptions, multiple spin-offs, among other things. Kirei doesn't appear in every Fate thing and has mostly minor roles outside of F/sn and F/zwhich features his younger shorter-haired self, but I'm pretty satisfied with that. A manga adaption of the third route of the F/sn vn actually started publishing quite recently and it's getting a movie adaption as well. That's my favorite route so I'm looking forward to it.

He doesn't appear in F/ha outside of a flashback scene because he's dead. For that reason, I haven't read it yet and at this point I don't know if I'd be able to. But that's a different topic.

>fan works

He gets a good amount of fanart thanks to Fate's popularity. A lot of it is fujoshit stuff, but I don't really mind as long as it's drawn well and he isn't too out of character. There's just as much bad stuff as there is good, but I think that's how it is for everyone. Doujins are about the same. There's some bad and some good. Fortunately for me, the good ones are very good and there's also a surprising amount of them out there, non-h and h. The only downside to that is that very few of them are scanned.

>supporting material and trivia

I guess this is where I'd talk about spin-offs. Fate has a lot of spin-offs including some games, manga series, and crossovers with other Type-moon things. The Kirei's that appear in these are mostly alternate versions of himself with slightly different personality traits but they are Kirei nonetheless. I'm very fond of the Kirei's from Fate/kaleid and Fate/extra

I also know he was in a drama CD for F/z. If he was in any others then I haven't heard them. And for trivia I have his height, weight, birthday, favorite food, and favorite time of the year…? There are some other things I guess I could file under here but they're featured in canon.

>do you create any of your own?

Sometimes. I draw him fairly often but I very rarely feel satisfied with what I drew. I've been drawing him for well over a year now and for some reason I still haven't figured out how to draw him right. I've tried writing before and I don't think I'm too bad at that, but I've never been able to finish anything.

There is the manga and the anime adaptation as per usual each of which is not very well written as the characters are rather shallow and underdeveloped my waifu included ;_;.

Then there is the VN that I didn't play

Most of the fan content seems to be just fan art and its usually stock "Look at yuno being bloody and crazy" with comfy images being a rarity. This is ridiculously disappointing because I see my waifu as much more than what shes usually drawn as. Its actually in the show that she has a bad self-image thinking that she's probably just only good for killing people so only being depicted as such would actually hurt her greatly.

>supporting material

Theres a spectacular Yuno Dere CD that she refers to a neutral party in instead of Yuki so its made for self-insert and its absolutely amazing. She is so adorable in it

>do you create any of your own?

In any game I make her in I make sure to take a load of screenshots. be that H games or sims like Moe Can Change or Dream Girlfriend. I also sometimes draw and I really want to start writing more.

Due to her status, aside from one thing I'd hate to get into and a few gifts/requests, all further content of my waifu has been primarily been commissions on my part. Spent somewhere around $1300 on them now

I've come to do silly little doodles of her as well, like in pic related.

Again do to her status, she has never appeared in anything outside of chapter 5 of the prequel manga, and aside from the very slim possibility of an anime adaptation, I know she will never appear in anything else. The possibility of an anime adaptation is something I am very conglicted about due to the nature of her story. Honestly, I'd probably be a nervous wreck should that ever be announced leading up to her episode and then die completely when I finally watch it

I really do wish her source went into more detail about her. There are so many things about her I'd give so much to know, and it pains me to no end knowing I'll never learn more about her.

So for petsonal reasons, I told myself I wasn't going to participate in waifu communities anymore, but holy shit I need to shate this

A japanese artist who works on fan mangas centering around the Akame ga Kill! posted a 3 page ship story a few days ago, and guess who made an appearance.

Translation

Panel 1: "You abandoned the Empire? "

Panel 2: "I thought we were comrades!"

Panel 3: "TRAITOR!"

This is the first puece of artwork of her that isn't directly related to me or guro, so needless to say I'm pretty elated by this, even if the context of the picture is a bit grim.

Gotta get a commission done someday of my waifu as TR-8R

>>755

>first spoiler

sucks to hear that

but thats great maybe that means she's going to get more in the future

>second spoiler.

I actually did something myself last night

>canon material

One game, came out on the Wii U in 2013. Kamiya and Inaba made a fantastic game as usual, but it flopped. It's considered a spiritual successor to Viewtiful Joe and shares almost exactly the same art style. I heard that physical copies are getting rare now days, so I'm glad I got mine for a good price new. It's not perfect, but it's a damn good game and I'd say that even if my husbando wasn't in it. There will probably never be a sequel, though Kamiya likes to joke about making a game about Wonder-Blue on twitter, and while that's a bit of a bummer it is thankfully a game that ties itself up nicely as a one-off.

>fan works

Not much, very few good pictures. It's not non-existent but it's rare for me to find a picture of him that I didn't already have.

>supporting material and trivia

Doesn't exist, unless references to the game in other Platinum games count. Bayonetta 2 has a few.

>do you create any of your own?

I do, drawing him is one of my favorite things to do. I've also gotten better at it as well.

>Canon

FFXIV is a very story-heavy MMORPG which started back in 2013 (or 2010 if you want to count the original version that got scrapped, since ARR (the current version of the game)'s story starts where that one ended, but my husbando didn't really exist there.). The story is ongoing, and gets regularly updated every 3 or 4 months, with the most recent patch being from November 10th 2015 and the next one scheduled to be released on February 23rd. Alphinaud doesn't really become a prominent character until you're about 75% of the way through the story in the base game, but from that point onward a good portion of the story is focused on him, and even when it isn't, he's usually accompanying the player character anyway (one could even argue that if the PC didn't exist, he'd be the protagonist). However, considering the story could go on for years beyond this, it wouldn't be unreasonable for the spotlight to shift to another character at some point. I just hope that if they ever have to write him out of the story, they do so peacefully.

>Fanworks

He's not particulalry popular as far as fanart for the game goes (most people would rather draw their own character or other npcs), but I'm still lucky enough to get a few new pictures a week. Art quality varies, and I sadly don't have a lot of pictures that I'd consider really amazing– too many of them are just bland portraits of him in his canon outfits where he's not doing anything particularly interesting. He's in a few doujins and most of them are sfw, but I haven't seen any of them scanned.

>Supporting material

Nearly non-existent. There's a short story about him and his family, but that's it.

>Do you create any of your own?

I draw him a lot, and even though I have a long way to go before I can really consider myself "good", I've recently gotten more serious about it and I feel like I've been steadily improving.

>Canon material

The 3 PS2 games from 2002 to 2006. The total hours in each of the main stories are about 30-40 hours.Apparently there were supposed to be 5-6. but that is another story. There is also the flash series and that one mobile rpg, but she wasn't a major character in either of those. The is also that one DS port of the first two games from 2006,but I hadn't play it yet. I am not sure if the cameos or the crossovers count.

>fan works

She has the most fan art out of all of the Xenosaga characters and one of Monolith Soft's most popular characters. I have a strict SFW policy so I don't look at the porn unless it was an accident or I am feeling like playing Russian roulette. Granted I am fairly apathetic towards this sort of thing and she doesn't really have the insane popularity of a character from Final Fantasy or something.

>support material and trivia

Xenosaga's Perfect Guide explains some of the more confusing parts of the games' lore and even provide some foresight about its universe's possible future. It was translated but sadly lost. I did manage to find an archive. There is also the artbooks which I flat out adored. I really don't want to talk about the anime adaption.

>do you create any of your own

I am not an artfag, writefag, or own a 3D printer. At best, I am probably fucking around with webms on a Linux terminal. I do admit I felt slightly envious that I am not able to record any of my playthoughs due to not having the hardware required for console or emulation recording.
