Notes:

  My ASCII drawings are shown here in chronological order.
  As time passes, I seem to be getting better.  ^_^
  (In addition, I've been slightly improving the
   older drawings.  Check out the previous versions
   of the MI Guidebook to see the drawings as they
   used to look like.)                                   ____________

 "Otonashi Kyoko"
    I must have spent hours trying to figure out how to make a single
    line twist and turn into the requisite kanji.  It was an interesting
    puzzle.  The "KYOU" kanji was the hardest part.

 "S n K"  (aka Soichiro and Kyoko)
    Taken from the title page for Volume 10, Part 7.

    This is my first ever ASCII drawing of a person.
    Up to this point, I had only been drawing ASCII pictures of abstract
    things such as kanji or letters of the alphabet.

 "Move over, Kyoko-san!"
    Mostly completed on 1995.01.25, in 60 minutes.  I added some more
    details and smoothed out some lines on 1995.08.30 (10min.).

    This is the first drawing for which I recorded the time spent.

 "Kyoko posing in the nude"
    I tried to find a drawing of Kyoko-the-cat in the manga, but
    couldn't find one showing the pose I wanted.  So I started by
    sketching out my idea on paper, and then I made that sketch into
    the ASCII drawing.

 "Animage Kyoko"
    Source:
      Animage Nov1991: "This Month's Top Ten Characters"
         Kyoko was #19, but at least they had a cute portrait of her.
       This is a picture of Kyoko looking over her right shoulder
       and with her hand up near her chin. Her hair is tied with a
       pink bow at the back near her neck, and she's wearing a
       red blouse with a yellow collar.

    Original time required: approx. 130 minutes  (1995.01.31)
    On 1995.08.28, I modified it to conform with my current aspect ratio.

 "1,4,5,6"
    Title explanation:
      The numbers represent each of the four characters:
      1 = Ichinose; 4 = Yotsuya; 5 = Godai; and 6 = Akemi.

    I love this drawing because the faces are so clearly recognizable.
    And the original manga drawing was one of the first ones that I
    just had to copy.

    I originally drew this ASCII on 1995.02.16 (in 140 minutes) using
    a more elongated screen dimension. On 1995.08.28, I modified it to
    conform with my current aspect ratio.

 "Shinobu in Kimono?"
    My "Yagami" drawing is 54-rows tall and 70-columns wide.
    My text-editing program is capable of displaying
    132-columns by 60-rows onscreen, so I can see the entire
    drawing all at once. If your monitor can't fit the whole picture
    into view, then I suppose you'd better print it out on paper.
    (It fits nicely on a single page.)

    For the record, I'll describe a little of the drawing/copying process:

    The first step was deciding which picture to
    copy from the Maison Ikkoku manga. I looked through
    all the volumes in which the target character appears
    and settled on what I thought was the best looking view.
    (I chose the frame a couple weeks ago, but didn't feel
    like drawing it until yesterday. [today being 1995.05.09] )
    A more talented ASCII artist might have drawn an original picture...

    When I copy a drawing from the manga, I open the book
    to the page I want and lay a paperweight on the book so
    I can refer to the original picture constantly.

    I started out by drawing the head-- I tried to make it as
    small as I could, while retaining the details I wanted to
    show. The face was the most important part of the picture,
    so it would determine the size of the entire drawing. (40 min.)

    Next, I drew the rest of the body (only as much as would
    fit within my limit of 60 rows) in outline form. (20 min.)

    The final stage (80 min.) involved these things in this order, roughly:
      - alter the general outline to more closely match the original
      - reduce the aliasing (smooth out the near-diagonal lines)
      - fill in the outlines with the shading patterns and
        decorations (this is a big job)
      - adjust minor details until they look better

    (I kept copies of the drawing during it's development stages,
     so I can see how it progressed.)

    Every once in a while, I stepped back from the monitor about
    3 meters to take a look at the drawing from a reasonable distance.
    In effect, this makes the drawing look to be the same size as the
    original manga picture-- so it's easier to compare the two.

    After adding the final flower to the kimono and fiddling around
    with the dot patterns, I stood back to look at what I had.
    And it was good... enough. :)

 "Mitaka thanks Asuna for breakfast..."
    From page 197 of Volume 13, Part 10.

 "Kick Off"
    Taken from Volume11, Part9: Title Page (left side).
    This was done as part of a translation project.
    Actually, most of my pics thereafter are part of translation projects.

 "AKI no WANA"
    Now here's something I whipped up rather quickly-- and it shows.
    I should have tried to make it smaller, too...

    Taken from v11c6 p105 (VW8c1 PW5).

 "Kyoko Strategically Deploys the Takahashi Hand Pose"
    Taken from Volume11, Part9, page 176.
    This one is one of my favorites because the faces turned out well.

 "Yotsuya no Neko"
    From Volume11, Part9, page178.  In the background, on top of the small
    cabinet, is a cat statue holding a large flat coin on which is
    written "SENMAN RYOU" = 10 million yen (actually, RYOU is an old
    monetary unit, not the same as a yen).

 "A Hopelessly Bored Yagami"
    From p106/PW6 of "AKI no WANA" (v11c6/VW8c1).
    This one looked difficult to render nicely-- it took a fair amount
    of time to get the face and hair looking right-- but I like the
    final result.

 "Dizzyness"
    From p185/PW85 (v11c10/VW8c5): the chapter entitled "memai".

 "Sweeping"
    From p188/PW88 (v11c10/VW8c5): the chapter entitled "memai".
    The legs were the hardest part to draw, and they still don't look right.

    This is my first drawing to exceed 60 lines-- it couldn't be helped.
    I started by drawing the face, and as soon as it looked fine, I
    wasn't about to reduce its size in order to make the overall picture
    fit within my usual limit of 60 lines.

If anyone has more MI ASCII art to contribute, please email me.
I would also like to see any comments associated with each artwork
(so I can add more endnotes).

My thanks go to Dov Sherman, whose anime ASCII art collections have inspired
me to post this collection.  (And also inspired me to copy some details.)
