The League of Super Strong Power Couples
January 9, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This headcanon meme originally belongs to Drago-Pantherforever and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of these seven power couples forming their own epic team. Sit back, relax, and revel in my headcanon of placing seven of my favorite power couples in one space and having them work together to the point of being akin to a family.
It says something when seven power couples forming a league is one of the most epic sights of all time. Consider this. When Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s mythical epicness, Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s magnificent reverence, Ken’s and Cammy’s marvelous fierceness, Roy’s and Riza’s military fortitude, Eric’s and Taylor’s majestic steeliness, Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s mighty strength, and Raymond’s and Alex’s magnanimous charisma are thoroughly combined, they create a league of powerful power couples that are the envy of many couples. No doubt that their seven positive attributes can enlighten families, save the world from vile invaders, protect innocent civilians, and thoroughly gauge their fighting spirit. Nothing on this earth can be more promising than the prospect of seven power couples who can accomplish deeds with confidence, strength, stamina, and brilliance with all of their being. This is especially true when Superman and Wonder Woman lead the helm, do so with diligence, determination, and setting a great example for their six power couple friends and allies, and maintaining duty and honor.
This league of super-strong power couples shall have various responsibilities delegated to them. Superman and Wonder Woman are the leaders akin to being the lord-high king and queen of power couples, thanks to their grit, upright sense of duty, and infallible sense of honor. Ryu and Chun-Li as well as Ken and Cammy are the battle couples fortifying the league with their combat prowess and martial arts expertise, especially with their collective knowledge of Shotokan Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Judo, Kenpo, Kickboxing, Jujitsu, and Combatives. Roy and Riza as well as Eric and Taylor are the military couples who heighten the protection of the league with their expertise as militants, considering how effective Roy’s fire alchemy powers, Riza’s sniper, Eric’s Quantum Defender, and Taylor’s Golden Eagle Sword are against any form of artillery. Inuyasha and Ayame are the ferociously super strong brawler couple who use their super strength to not only protect their friends but also their home in the Northern Yoro Tribe. Raymond and Alex are the staunch peacekeepers who keep the league in harmonious synergy.
Because Superman and Wonder Woman possess mythical amounts of super strength and steely stamina, they would even train their six power couple friends as effectively as possible. Superman and Wonder Woman would inspire Ryu and Chun-Li to grow in balance and synergy, Ken and Cammy to challenge their personal bests, Roy and Riza to increase their military protocol’s effectivity, Eric and Taylor to implement their combative skills as the Red Quantum Ranger and Yellow Eagle Ranger respectively for protective means, Inuyasha and Ayame to exercise righteous fury against opponents, and Raymond and Alex to further build up on their combat skills. Physical strength is one great attribute that sees Superman, Ryu, Ken, Roy, Eric, Inuyasha, and Raymond grow in super strength and muscular virility with weightlifting, Pankration, Vale Tudo, Combat Sambo, and Kapu Kuialua. Mighty combat prowess is also one attribute that sees Wonder Woman, Chun-Li, Cammy, Riza, Taylor, Ayame, and Alex grow in speed and stamina in circuit training, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, and Boxing. It is full steam ahead in mighty power.
All seven power couples would even cheer for each other’s great endeavors. Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s tenure in saving the universe from invaders and corrupt villains is worthy of admiration. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s ability to embrace the martial arts codes of honor and integrity serves as an unbreakable bedrock. Ken’s and Cammy’s strong will to challenge themselves and each other as combatants and as people is what fortifies an amazingly dynamic relationship. Roy’s and Riza’s military prowess is what fortifies their reputation for protecting troops and civilians alike from terrorism and cruelty. Eric’s and Taylor’s authoritative duty to citizens using their honor codes as Power Rangers and soldiers can never be questioned, let alone challenged. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s overpoweringly super strength as the strongest fighters are what fortifies the team, makes them win in various combat tournaments and intimidates those willing to besmirch their abode. Raymond’s and Alex’s charismatic warmth is earned in maintaining peace and harmony in the league. Therefore, they encourage and champion each other.
Who they empower outside their inner circle matters the most as much as who they empower in their team. Superman and Wonder Woman would initiate Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex to use their physical skills to encourage civilians to also defend themselves. Superman and Wonder Woman would encourage lessons on duty and responsibility while using strength training exercises. Ryu and Chun-Li would incorporate Karate and Jujutsu as steps toward balance, synergy, honor, and integrity in people’s lives as martial artists. Ken and Cammy would integrate Kenpo and Judo as building blocks for solidarity, discipline, developing a good attitude, and confidence. Roy and Riza would train people in self-defense and using military tactics when dealing with invaders. Eric and Taylor would implement circuit training and combatives for protective purposes. Inuyasha and Ayame would train people in hybrid martial arts such as Pankration and Kyuk Too Ki. Raymond and Alex would have exciting fitness routines as their routine. People would be truly grateful for them.
The League of Super Strong Power Couples headed by Superman and Wonder Woman shows abundant promise and great service to the people they protect and serve with honor, dignity, fortitude, formidability, responsibility, courage, and love. Fighting against evil and protecting the universe may be wonderful. Having seven power couples training intensely with each other in various martial arts such as Pankration, Vale Tudo, Kapu Kuialua, Karate, Kenpo, Jujutsu, and Judo may be exciting. However, all of these activities mean nothing without the emphasis all seven power couples place on familial closeness to each other and building communities with people. They establish close ties with the people they protect by physically and mentally showing them the ropes to effectively defend themselves against threats and live their best possible lives. All seven power couples champion, encourage and support each other in all of their endeavors and emerge triumphantly as the strong league of couples that they are. Enemies and invaders can never dismantle the bond that these seven couples have created.
I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and remember to show fortitude and formidability like the League of Super Strong Power Couples, everybody.

Protecting the Superhero Power Couple
January 8, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This “What if Person A Protects Person B” Meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Raymond, and Alex protecting Superman and Wonder Woman, who they value as their best friends for life. Sit back, relax, and revel in the unquestionable loyalty that Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Cammy, Roy, Eric, Riza, Taylor, Inuyasha, Raymond, Ayame, and Alex have for Superman and Wonder Woman.
Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s genuinely unbreakable friendship with Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Cammy, Roy, Eric, Riza, Taylor, Inuyasha, Raymond, Ayame, and Alex explicitly demonstrates that strength does come in numbers. In return, their six power couple friends, comrades, and allies exercise loyalty, kindness, and unconditional appreciation for Superman and Wonder Woman, especially in times of strife, toil, and trouble. Should terrifying threats befall Ryu, Ken, Chun-Li, Cammy, Roy, Eric, Riza, Taylor, Inuyasha, Raymond, Ayame, and Alex, Superman and Wonder Woman will gladly risk their lives for their security and good health. Should Superman and Wonder Woman be extremely battered by cruel oppressors wanting to enslave the superhero couple, their six power couple friends will never forget about the great deeds they have done for them and return the favor by fighting against the oppressors with everything they have. After all, Superman and Wonder Woman have seen exceptionally amazing traits in their six power couple friends, and they have proven themselves to be staunchly loyal friends to them.
Superman and Wonder Woman may present themselves as infallible superheroes. However, even they cannot underestimate how mighty their opponents are. They can do everything in their power to overcome vicious tyrants who desire to annihilate them. Nevertheless, even they know that their power is never enough to overcome these tyrants whether from other planets, other spiritual realms, or political heads who abuse their power. Enter their six following power couple friends who will gladly protect Superman and Wonder Woman from harm and guarantee total safety. Ryu’s Shin Hashogeki and Chun-Li’s Spinning Bird Kick can shatter the nervous system. Ken’s Shinryu Reppa and Cammy’s Delta Red Assault can obliterate organs. Roy’s flame alchemy skills and Riza’s sharp focus on her sniper mean sudden death. Eric’s blasts from his Quantum Defender and Taylor’s slashes from her Golden Eagle Sword signify quick destruction. Inuyasha’s tracheal grip chokes and Ayame’s Superman punches shall destroy the skeletal structure. Raymond’s bearhugs and Alex’s spinning back fists shall provoke total unconsciousness.
With all of their six power couple friends’ signature attacks implanted on their invaders, abusers, and many other terrible monsters that dare to destroy Superman and Wonder Woman, that just leaves one more beautifully crafted attack as the finishing blows. Superman’s fireman carry-torture rack-piledriver combo coupled with Wonder Woman’s uppercut-jab-hook combo can destroy their attacks inside and outside, thus making them never return to harm them or their friends ever again. Like the true friends that they are, Superman and Wonder Woman thank Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex for their unwavering fortitude, relentless formidability, quick-thinking strategies, focused attacks, beastly beatdowns, and superb strength in protecting them against their attackers. In return, their six power couple friends would proclaim that they would do anything for Superman and Wonder Woman because they are not only great friends but also a tight-knit family of power couples. Gratitude is strong with this power couple septet.
I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and remember to show your loyalty toward Superman and Wonder Woman and protect them just like Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex do, everybody.

An Epic Power Couple Friendship
January 7, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This “What if Person was Friends/Allies with that Person” Meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of Superman and Wonder Woman being great friends with six other super-strong power couples. Sit back, relax, and revel in this continuation of Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s blooming platonic relationships with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex that grew from initial acquaintance in Themiscyra to genuine friendship.
There is nothing more fulfilling than Superman and Wonder Woman offering their genuine friendship to Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex because they can see the best in each of them and can challenge them to be the greatest versions of themselves. They will also use their superpowers to keep their twelve great friends safe from harm and cruelty. When Ryu and Chun-Li need direction in their lives as martial artists, they will push them well. When Ken and Cammy need a stronger challenger, they will be that for them wholeheartedly. When Roy and Riza need consultation for effective strategies, they will consult them effectively. When Eric and Taylor need a power-up as militants and Power Rangers, they will give them that added strength. When Inuyasha and Ayame need to challenge themselves as martial artists, they will do so without respite and not let them forget about character growth. When Raymond and Alex are in a sticky situation, they will unconditionally help them. Therefore, Superman and Wonder Woman are true heroes and truer friends.
Ryu and Chun-Li admire Superman and Wonder Woman for their moral ethics and honorable integrity as superheroes just as Superman and Wonder Woman admire Ryu and Chun-Li for their peerless relentlessness and excellent decorum as martial artists. Superman can see a disciplined warrior with abundant clarity and straightforward direction in Ryu, while Wonder Woman can see a bright law enforcer with exceptional determination in Chun-Li. Both Ryu and Chun-Li even adulate Superman and Wonder Woman for their grand heroism and equally grand sense of duty in saving the world from evil. What both pairs of couples discover in each other is profound enlightenment that unites the flesh with the spirit, especially when they implement meditation after every sparring session they engage in. Testing each other’s physical prowess may be one thing. Still, Superman, Ryu, Wonder Woman, and Chun-Li agree that the mind and soul are just as important as constantly flaunting physical prowess. Therefore, they can unite the Oracle of Delphi and the Dragons of the East to work in healthy synergy and beautiful balance.
Ken and Cammy commend Superman and Wonder Woman for their upright moral compass and unrelenting courage as superheroes just as Superman and Wonder Woman commend Ken and Cammy for their unwavering determination and hot-blooded toughness as martial artists. Superman finds Ken’s blazing fortitude and courageous fighting spirit to be his most prized assets, while Wonder Woman finds Cammy’s brilliant courage and abundant fierceness to be worthy of admiration. Both Ken and Cammy even admire both Superman and Wonder Woman for being great role models to people all over the world and for always being present when saving the day from destruction. The most salient trait that both pairs of couples see in each other is an imperishable willingness to challenge themselves and never rest on their laurels as combatants and as people. Testing each other’s strength, stamina, and endurance is one thing, but Superman, Ken, Wonder Woman, and Cammy argue that the mind, spirit, and soul should complement physical prowess in harmony. Thus, balance and perseverance remain their everlasting bedrocks.
Roy and Riza revere Superman and Wonder Woman for their unquestionable valor and outstanding bravery in protecting civilians just as Superman and Wonder Woman revere Roy and Riza for their composed steeliness and indescribable composure in serving Amestris outstandingly as peerless militants. Superman points out how Roy’s dichotomy of being a sharp colonel and a charismatically entertaining soul work together in producing his fire powers, while Wonder Woman points out that Riza’s impeccable accuracy and surefire aim for the target make her an astounding markswoman and all-around fighter specializing in military tactics. Both Roy and Riza even admit to Superman and Wonder Woman that they enjoy their gold medal-standard sense of dutiful service to the people they protect and would love to be just as protective as they are. Superman and Wonder Woman would even help Roy and Riza curate plans that may work to Amestris’s benefit should invaders besmirch the land, while Roy and Riza would help Superman and Wonder Woman protect their city. Duty and honor remain their dual heartbeats.
Eric and Taylor praise Superman and Wonder Woman for their incredible benevolence and ineffable willpower in protecting civilians from destruction just as Superman and Wonder Woman praise Eric and Taylor for their courageous determination and indestructible chutzpah in accomplishing their duties as military heroes. Superman emphasizes that Eric’s strength, willpower, and toughness are the traits that propel him to be a mighty Red Ranger, while Wonder Woman emphasizes that Taylor’s courage, determination, and formidability are the traits that propel her to be an intrepid Yellow Ranger. Both Eric and Taylor even admit to Superman and Wonder Woman that they have wanted to emulate their unparalleled heroism ever since they were young children and still aspire to be as rich in benevolent fortitude as they are. Superman and Wonder Woman would also assist Eric as the Red Quantum Ranger and Taylor as the Yellow Eagle Ranger in important missions when fighting against fearsome monsters that deign to destroy the earth. No doubt will they accomplish their missions with excellence.
Inuyasha and Ayame treasure Superman and Wonder Woman for their superbly godly strength and mythically incomparable combat prowess just as Superman and Wonder Woman treasure Inuyasha and Ayame for their powerfully formidable super strength and gloriously awesome fighting spirit. Superman commends Inuyasha for his muscular manliness and victorious virility as one of the strongest Pankration fighters ever, while Wonder Woman commends Ayame for her dedicated determination and lethal limbs as one of the fiercest Kyuk Too Ki fighters ever, as both are worthy of Heracles’s and Theseus’s honor. Both Inuyasha and Ayame are enthusiastic to have intense sparring sessions with Superman and Wonder Woman to be just as powerful as they are. There is no doubt that Superman would do wonders for Inuyasha’s chokeholds, throws, and takedowns, while Wonder Woman would improve the quality of Ayame’s punches, kicks, and strikes. Inuyasha and Ayame would even assist Superman and Wonder Woman in touch with their wildly beastly sides. They would build each other up in muscle, power, and strength.
Raymond and Alex worship Superman and Wonder Woman for their amazingly heroic deeds and flawlessly beautiful collaboration as a strong power couple just as Superman and Wonder Woman worship Raymond and Alex for their pristinely shining genuineness and truly gorgeous chemistry as an attractive power couple. Superman remarks that Raymond’s virile charisma and magnificent muscles are the traits worth preserving as a great bodybuilder, while Wonder Woman remarks that Alex’s shimmering charisma and shining charm are the traits that make her win as a fitness enthusiast. Both Raymond and Alex express gleeful excitement at being friends with Superman and Wonder Woman because they have been aspiring to be just as strong, benevolent, and self-sacrificing as they have ever since they were children. Superman and Wonder Woman would do wonders in accelerating Raymond’s and Alex’s combat prowess and self-defense techniques. Raymond and Alex would do their part in making Superman and Wonder Woman enjoy the simpler things in life as a couple. In short, they would be the firmest of friends.
To say that Superman and Wonder Woman are fortunate to be great friends with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex and vice-versa is a mere understatement. Superman and Wonder Woman are elated, blessed, and grateful to be friends with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex just as these six amazing power couples are utterly joyous to have one of DC Comics’ mightiest superhero couple as their best friends for life. The pro-social activities found in building each other’s positive attributes, challenging each other to shine far more than they do, and demonstrating genuine loyalty to each other are truly unquestionable. With Superman and Wonder Woman initiating an unbreakable friendship with their six fellow power couples, there is a whole lot of fruit that will bloom, and all of that fruit in kindness, empowerment, encouragement, and unconditional love shall be as sweet as honey. All seven couples could not have asked for anything more beautiful or prosperous than a great friendship.
I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and remember to cherish Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s epic friendship with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex, everybody.

An Assembly of Strong Power Couples
January 6, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This “What if Crossover Meeting” Meme originally belongs to MagicalKeyPizzaDan and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of Superman and Wonder Woman having their first rendezvous with their fellow power couples. Sit back, relax, and revel in how Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s encounter with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex will fare.
Sometimes living life as a power couple possessing omnipotent levels of superhuman strength, mercurial reflexes, and Herculean combat prowess is never an easy vocation, especially when extraterrestrial invaders, treacherous criminals, corrupt law officials, and unsavory monsters are rampant on a ritualistic basis. Just ask Kal-El of Krypton and Diana of Themiscyra or Superman and Wonder Woman. Even with them being members of the Justice League, having missions together, and still finding time to consummate their intimate feelings after a hard day’s work, it is never enough. Until Superman concocts the idea of creating their own legion of power couples. Wonder Woman believes this is a phenomenal idea, as many power couples in the world would be happy to work alongside Superman and her. Not wasting any time, the mythically powerful DC Superhero couple gets down to business and hosts a get-together in Themiscyra for the power couples who want to meet them in person. Both Superman and Wonder Woman could already tell that the rendezvous they organized would be a fruitful one.
Outside the DC Universe, there has been no shortage of avid discourses revolving around Superman among Ryu Hoshi, Ken Masters, Colonel Roy Mustang, Commander Eric Myers, Inuyasha, and Raymond. They are not only aware of Superman’s popularity but also aspire to be just as benevolent, formidable, and courageous as he is. Ryu honors his magnificent might, while Ken praises his super strength, thus emulating Superman’s physical prowess and valor. Roy and Eric express interest in meeting Superman because they want to keep on challenging themselves as combatants and believe that their military training would be sufficiently suitable for his standards. Inuyasha is already excited at the prospect of having intense workout sessions and combat matches with Superman because of his continuous desire to remain a champion. Raymond, as starry-eyed and enthusiastic as ever, has always wanted to meet Superman in person because he looks up to him as an inspiration for his career as a bodybuilder and a gym instructor. All six men express joy at the thought of meeting Superman in person.
It is not just the men who are excited about meeting Superman but also their wives, who are just as excited to meet Wonder Woman. All the discussions that Chun-Li, Cammy White, Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, Lieutenant Taylor Earhardt, Ayame, and Alex engage in about Wonder Woman make them akin to excitable schoolgirls talking about the latest trends. Chun-Li finds Wonder Woman to be a majestic queen just as Cammy honors her unwavering courage, thus desiring to emulate Wonder Woman’s brand of warrior queen bravery. Riza and Taylor perceive Wonder Woman as a precious asset to their careers as military women because they want to learn traditional and more ancient ways of how to defend themselves against invaders and see how they can hold up in the modern world. Ayame is itching to engage in multiple physical training and sparring sessions with Wonder Woman to push her combat prowess to a much higher level. Alex is gleeful at the prospect of finally meeting Wonder Woman in person because that was one of her dreams as a little girl. All six women express bliss at meeting Wonder Woman.
In terms of Superman and Wonder Woman as a couple, all six power couples even discuss how they look up to them as role models. Ryu and Chun-Li admire them for their fortitude. Ken and Cammy adore them for their formidability. Roy and Riza adulate them for their unwavering courage. Eric and Taylor worship them for their strong protective measures for innocent civilians. Inuyasha and Ayame end up having enthralling discussions about their combat prowess and their reputations as super-strong warriors. Raymond and Alex express delight at meeting them because they have been aspiring to be just as courageous, strong, and noble as they are ever since they were children. All six power couples even engage in all of the ways Superman and Wonder Woman have been using their collaborative powers to protect the universe from all types of enemies ranging from alien invaders to demonic entities. Amidst their discussions, letters arrive for the six power couples. They are from Superman and Wonder Woman to attend a get-together in Themiscyra. All six power couples head to Themiscyra for this exciting event.
In Themiscyra, Superman and Wonder Woman are dressed to the nines in royal Ancient Greek attire that makes Superman almost akin to Zeus and Wonder Woman almost akin to Hera eagerly awaiting the arrival of their acquaintances. Ryu, Ken, Roy, Eric, Inuyasha, Raymond, Chun-Li, Cammy, Riza, Taylor, Ayame, and Alex arrive in Themiscyra already anticipating the moment they encounter the superhero couple. Superman and Wonder Woman greet the six couples with open arms, embraces, and positive vibes and show them around their marble palace home. All six power couples are amazed at Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s palace as if they stepped inside a cross between an Ancient Greek Museum and an illustrated Greek mythology book from the golden statues to the marble floors to the intricate designs. Since the six power couples must have felt fatigued from their trip to Themiscyra, Superman and Wonder Woman show them to their bath chambers and changing rooms to get freshened up. There are even Ancient Greek attire waiting for them to be dressed in and look just as fabulous in them.
After the six power couples get freshened up and dressed up in their Ancient Greek attire, they enter the banquet hosted by Superman and Wonder Woman themselves. Golden goblets of sweet, fruity, fragrant ambrosia await them alongside a medley of Greek cuisines such as salad made from tomatoes, basil, spinach, olives, and feta cheese; roasted salmon with lemon and garlic sauce; roasted goat with paprika and various spices; and a fruit bowl full of figs, grapes, dates, blueberries, apples, pears, and clementines. All seven power couples sit down, as Superman and Wonder Woman raise their goblets to their esteemed guests. Ryu and Chun-Li, Ken and Cammy, Roy and Riza, Eric and Taylor, Inuyasha and Ayame, and Raymond and Alex serve themselves slices of roasted goat, roasted salmon, salad, and fruit and ate to their hearts’ content. Inuyasha and Ayame found themselves thoroughly satisfied with the food and drink they received as do the rest of the power couples. With all the merriment occurring, it was a hearty feast that saw all seven power couples satiated from the exceptional culinary quality.
Once everybody is done with feasting, Superman and Wonder Woman express their joy in having Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex as their dearly esteemed guests. In return, Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex express their gratitude to Superman and Wonder Woman for inviting them into their abode. Superman and Wonder Woman are happy that they have managed to prepare such a fine feast for their acquaintances because they have a special surprise for them. Their twelve guests wonder what is about to transpire. Superman and Wonder Woman then announce that they want to hire Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex to assist them in their missions to save the universe. All twelve guests cannot believe what they have heard from their hosts. Them working for Superman and Wonder Woman? Could it be a dream? It is too good to be true! With everything that transpired, they all said yes to working with Superman and Wonder Woman to save the world.
Superman and Wonder Woman have even been acquainted with each of the six power couples’ special traits. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s valorous honor as martial artists is aspirational. Ken’s and Cammy’s strong will to challenge themselves as fighters and people is laudable. Roy’s and Riza’s staunchness to their duties as militants is something worth valuing, especially when they use their military tactics to their advantage. Eric’s and Taylor’s headstrong determination is their most prized possession as well as their abilities to morph into the Power Rangers. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s fearsome combat prowess and super strength make them truly exceptional, considering their awesome reign as the King and Queen of the Northern Yoro Tribe. Raymond’s and Alex’s charismatic warmth makes them inviting and genuine not just in their native Beverly Hills but also everywhere. The air in the chamber accelerated in genuine warmth from all of Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s encouraging words. All six power couples show their appreciation to Superman and Wonder Woman by telling them that they are amazing hosts.
Superman’s and Wonder Woman’s Themiscyra rendezvous with Ryu, Chun-Li, Ken, Cammy, Roy, Riza, Eric, Taylor, Inuyasha, Ayame, Raymond, and Alex is indeed an engaging, enlightening, and elegant one to the point where there might be something more than just this acquaintance blossoming. I can already sense that a genuine friendship is about to blossom, but that will be for another submission. Until then, take care, stay safe, and please continue to show your admiration for these seven strong power couples, everybody. Furthermore, don’t forget to be great hosts to your guests like Superman and Wonder Woman are too.

The Legion of Power Couples
January 5, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This septet meme originally belongs to Alpha-Duelist35 and is dedicated to all of the wonderful shippers of Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex as well as those entertained by the thought of these seven power couples forming their own epic team. Sit back, relax, and revel in how marvelously these seven power couples can work exceedingly well together, not just look great together.
What do you get when you make one superhero couple of epically mythical proportions, one focused brown-haired martial arts couple of Asian descent, one dynamic blond-haired martial arts couple of Western heritage, one state military couple brimming with excitingly belligerent sexual tension, one law enforcer couple capable of transforming into heroes in multicolored suits, one canine yokai warrior couple prepared to beat formidable opponents to a bloody pulp, and one glamorously gorgeous couple from Beverly Hills join forces? You get an exceptional legion of power couples who not only look amazing together but also prove themselves to be physically capable of protecting innocent civilians against oppressors and taking down ruthless opponents with every fiber of their being. All seven power couples embody peerless physical prowess, high levels of romantic intimacy, and great fighting spirit to make them the strong team that they are. Each of them also possesses individual fighting styles that define them as couples and as fighters using their strength to inspire people’s motivation and growth.
Superman x Wonder Woman: Legendarily Dutiful Sovereigns
To proclaim that Superman and Wonder Woman are the emperor and empress of power couples is a mere understatement. They can give the likes of Zeus and Hera, Odin and Frigg, and many other mighty ruler couples a huge run for their money. There is no doubt that Superman and Wonder Woman possess mythically abundant amounts of super strength, rapid reflexes, and godly amounts of endurance, especially when Superman’s muscles of steel work flawlessly with Wonder Woman’s fierce athletic prowess. However, their collective fortitude, might, power, and Herculean prowess are used to protect innocent civilians from harm and demolish any evil oppressor who dares to abuse their power. Given that both Superman and Wonder Woman or Kal-El aka Clark and Diana have mythical combat prowess firmly rooted in old-school Western civilization, their fighting style is a fascinating mixture of Pankration, Ancient Greek Wrestling, and Ancient Greek Boxing. They can throw any punch, arm bar, shoulder lock, leg lock, choke, throw, and takedown to their hearts’ desire and triumph over their enemies in style.
Ryu x Chun-Li: Honorably Conducted Warriors
Living by the codes of the ancient dragons are Ryu Hoshi from Japan and Chun-Li from China. Ryu and Chun-Li can put both Japan’s and China’s emperors, empresses, and prime ministers to shame because of how deeply and thoroughly they stick to their unadulterated sense of honor as martial artists and beacons of enlightenment. Ryu’s unquestionable sense of duty to his craft as a martial artist serves as a welcome canvas for Chun-Li to implement her expertise as a law-abiding police officer by prioritizing on protection of families, duty to civilians, and justice for all. Therefore, both Ryu and Chun-Li implement their combat prowess and duty as martial artists to put people’s safety as a number one priority. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s Ansatsuken have their respective roots in established martial arts. Ryu has the primarily hard styles of Shotokan Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Judo, and Kenpo, while Chun-Li has both the hard and soft styles found in Shaolin Kung Fu, Sanda, Tai Chi, and Wushu. Together, Ryu and Chun-Li propel their hard and soft attacks to bring balance and evenness to their techniques.
Ken x Cammy: Relentlessly Fierce Challengers
Rocking a Transatlantic sense of spicy intimacy and unconditional romance all while kicking loads of butt and taking names are Ken Masters from the United States of America and Cammy White from England in the United Kingdom. The golden sunshine of the hair may radiate brilliantly like the shining sun. Their azure blue eyes may denote calmness before the storm. However, their external beauty is only complemented by their all-encompassing fighting prowess, combining Ken’s fierily rampaging takedowns, grapples, and blows and Cammy’s acrobatically mobile strikes, punches, and kicks. Neither Ken nor Cammy stops at nothing to grow as combatants. More importantly, both Ken and Cammy challenge each other to improve in character and demonstrate resilience in the face of adversity. This necessity for a challenge is also reflected in their Ansatsuken. Ken’s chiefly hard style of Shotokan Karate, Kyokushin Karate, Judo, and Kenpo is well-combined with Cammy’s brutally effective style of British All-In Fighting, Kickboxing, Hapkido, and Jujutsu to make their opponents surrender in terror.
Roy x Riza: Militaristically Calculating Lieutenants
When fire and steel merge and meld, it can only mean one thing. Colonel Roy Mustang and Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye are on the job to ensure that safety, justice, order, progress, tradition, duty, and good direction remain top of mind in their careers as militants. Criminals, looters, marauders, and pillagers shall be robbed of sleep and peace once Roy and Riza arrive to arrest and eradicate them, especially for crimes far too inhumane to comprehend. Roy’s and Riza’s high status as a militaristic power couple does not just stop them from doing their duties the best way they can. It also illustrates how Roy’s dichotomy of impassioned charisma and cool charm can beautifully blend with Riza’s collected intellect and analytical intuitiveness. They also challenge each other as leaders because they know that there is a lot of promise and growth that they can give to each other and themselves. Roy’s and Riza’s military expertise also means that they combine Krav Maga, Marine Corps Martial Arts, Defendu, Combat Sambo, and Jieitaikakutojutsu to overpower invaders and ensure a powerful fleet of honorable defenders.
Eric x Taylor: Commandingly Robust Captains
The bloody red fangs of the Quantasaurus Rex Zord and the shining yellow wings of the Wild Force Eagle Zord clash and collide to provide innocent civilians with all the security they need against rampaging rogue mutants and terrifyingly terrible orgs. Enter Commander Eric Myers and Lieutenant Taylor Earhardt who are militants with heaps of attitude willing to stomp out any vile creature willing to destroy the earth. All it takes is for Eric to unleash his Quantum Morpher and Taylor to unsheath her Growl Phone, after having the obligatory battle against the mooks, and they transform into even more potent combatants. Eric becomes the red-clad Quantum Ranger, while Taylor becomes the yellow-clad Soaring Eagle Ranger. Super-powered monster-stomping aside, Eric and Taylor possess a lot in common from their fascination with military paraphernalia to serving their country well. Furthermore, they are also experts in a mixture of Krav Maga, Marine Corps Martial Arts, the LINE combat system, the SCARS combat system, and the SPEAR combat system to fortify their combat prowess against vile invaders.
Inuyasha x Ayame: Ferociously Rampaging Punishers
Demons and mightier opponents better beware when Inuyasha and Ayame take center stage because they can deliver some brutally bloody attacks. Inuyasha’s magnificently muscular virility as a dog yokai warrior king and Ayame’s furiously fiery fists as a wolf yokai warrior queen are what propel them to mash and cream every battle they partake in. When Inuyasha pumps up loads of iron, granite, steel, and titanium to his muscles, he becomes a fearsomely virile warlord ready to trounce even the mightiest of tyrants. When Ayame unleashes her fists, feet, knees, shins, and elbows of mercury and quicksilver, she becomes a ruthless queen who knocks giants out. Together, they use their muscles, punches, grappling skills, and takedowns to release an unspeakable amount of corporal punishment to any murderer and marauder who dares to besmirch their happy home. In fact, Inuyasha’s magnificent muscles and Ayame’s furious fists make them brilliant for a combination of Pankration, Vale Tudo, Combat Sambo, Kapu Kuialua, Mixed Martial Arts, Luta Livre, and Shoot Boxing to terrorize horrid criminals to their core.
Raymond x Alex: Gorgeously Charismatic Deities
Flashing smiles and a whole lot of charismatic charm are what define Raymond and Alex to be the thoroughly attractive power couple that they are. Attractively gorgeous faces may be Raymond’s and Alex’s meal tickets, especially when complemented by Raymond’s beautifully bulging muscles and Alex’s lithely agile frame. However, how they appear on the outside is only bolstered by how they are on the inside. Raymond’s welcome approachability and affable charm are the hallmarks that make him a fine gym instructor to anybody desiring to be in shape. Alex’s ebullient enthusiasm and unwavering optimism encourage people to be thoroughly active. Raymond’s and Alex’s positive attitude and abundant perseverance make them shimmer on the inside and outside. Nothing can ever get them down, and they will always welcome challenges. As for fighting styles, Raymond’s combination of Greco-Roman Wrestling, Professional Wrestling, Lutte Senegalaise, and Ancient Greek Wrestling blends greatly with Alex’s combination of Taekwondo, Shaolin Kung Fu, Shotokan Karate, and Wado-Ryu Karate.
This lineup of seven power couples shows that the power couples that work hard together in harmony stay together in harmony too. Furthermore, each of their combat expertise shows that just because they look great together does not mean that they cannot open up a huge serving of whoop-ass. In fact, all seven power couples possess abundant combat prowess to make them more formidable than they already are. Outside the formidability and the beauty of each of these couples, they all demonstrate deep loyalty and unbreakable allegiance, thus making sure that everlasting fidelity remains top of mind. Therefore, it is always a joy seeing seven power couples work together in great harmony, not just with their respective significant others.
I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and please show your appreciation to these seven power couples who work so beautifully together, everybody.

Seven Strong Power Couples
January 4, 2024 in The Splendid Seven
This screenshot motivational poster is in high favor of Superman x Wonder Woman from Justice League, Ryu Hoshi x Chun-Li from Street Fighter, Ken Masters x Cammy White from Street Fighter, Roy Mustang x Riza Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist, Eric Myers x Taylor Earhardt from Power Rangers, Inuyasha x Ayame from Inuyasha, and Raymond x Alex from Totally Spies. This is also dedicated to everybody who desires these seven couples as their OTPs for life as much as I do. Sit back, relax, and revel in SuperWonder’s authoritative might, RyuLi’s focused determination, Kenammy’s fiery willpower, RoyAi’s unrelenting loyalty, Quantum Eagle’s resilient toughness, InuAya’s magnificent strength, and Raylex’s gorgeous synergy.
Nothing excites me more than embracing my seven favorite fictional couples I consider to be battle-power couples. Their formidability, fortitude, fierceness, strength, combat prowess, might, and potency have always made me enthralled from my head to my heart to my soul. It should be no surprise that I have been shipping these couples ever since I was in my tween years while discovering several attributes that made each power couple superb in my eyes in latent, overt, and/or surprising ways. From the childhood delight of pairing Superman and Wonder Woman as a couple to my further appreciation for Raymond and Alex as a gorgeously lovely couple, there was nothing that could separate me from these seven power couples that I cherish the most. Even when some people discourage me by proclaiming that some of these power couples are not canon and will never happen, I do not bother with them and make them stew in their self-loathing, fun-sucking ways because I take pride in going against the grain. Now, it is time for me to sing my praises and high esteem for these seven mighty power couples.
Superman and Wonder Woman aka Clark Kent and Diana Prince aka Kal-El of Krypton and Diana of Themyscira are the power couple to end all power couples. This is not just attributed that they are DC Comics’ beacons for mythically grand heroism. This also extends to them not just looking phenomenal either. Both Superman and Wonder Woman represent authority, duty, and reverence that need to be earned by protecting civilians from oppression and cruelty as well as being pillared anchors of super strength for the Justice League. While some people in the DC fandom may find SuperWonder to be a rather bland couple, given how incredibly invincible both superheroes are and how similar they are to a fault, I have always cherished Superman and Wonder Woman for their mythical authority and sheer might in saving the world from destruction. I even envision Superman x Wonder Woman giving Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde a run for their money because their indestructibility and regal power make them worthier of aspiration and adulation. Therefore, Superman and Wonder Woman are deserving of reverence.
Ryu Hoshi and Chun-Li are what occurs when the unbreakable focus in the martial arts and sheer determination to grow as combatants and as people entwine. Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s focus and determination as martial artists and as individuals are the hallmarks of what make them infallible, especially when they are together inside and outside combat situations. Neither of them will rest until they not only fully commit to their lives as warriors but also do their part in ensuring that justice and peace prevail for the people they care about. Should criminals, looters, and marauders pillage Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s happily blessed home, they would unleash every punch, kick, takedown, grapple, and power-up from their arsenal to make them pay for what they have done in droves. From the very first moments that I stumbled upon the Street Fighter franchise as a child growing up in the 1990s, Ryu x Chun-Li was the first couple I ever shipped. Back then as a child, I could not fathom why. However, now as an adult, what I can see in Ryu and Chun-Li is respect, allegiance, loyalty, and support for each other as a superb martial arts couple.
Ken Masters and Cammy White are striking up the band when it comes to challenging each other to grow in fortitude and perseverance while also possessing tenderly intimate moments as a power couple. The golden sunshine of their blond hair and sparkling blue eyes may reflect Ken’s and Cammy’s conventionally Western aesthetics in contrast to Ryu’s and Chun-Li’s brunette hair and predominantly Asian features. All looks aside, Ken and Cammy demonstrate exuberance, fearlessness, and fieriness in embracing every challenge they encounter together. Moreover, Ken’s muscularly hot-blooded virility excitingly compliments Cammy’s icily steely determination to the point where they can hold their own both individually and as a couple. Their traits also work in their favor when pummeling criminals and terrorists, considering how Ken’s brutal strikes and takedowns work beautifully with Cammy’s quickly-paced strikes. I have also been a hardcore shipper of Ken x Cammy ever since I was a child, and I continue to cherish them as a couple because they can challenge each other to improve as people.
Roy Mustang and Riza Hawkeye command full respect, allegiance, loyalty, nobility, and courage in the face of all adversity and strife with electrifying flair. Once again, Roy’s hot-bloodedly virile fire compliments Riza’s icily cool quicksilver bullets in a frenzy that involves lethal edge and taking no prisoners. Felons and legitimate war criminals would easily tremble at the severe and quick punishments that Roy and Riza can deliver with effortless fatality. Superiors and followers alike discover multiple upon multiple facets that make Roy and Riza worthy of emulation and adoration, thanks to their commanding formidability, pristine decorum, and valorous courage amidst pain, adversity, strife, and trouble. When everything is silent and all the chaos is mildened, Roy and Riza would engage in spicy yet subtle sexual tension in their well-furnished chambers. During my late-tween to early teen years of watching Fullmetal Alchemist, I have always been a partisan of Roy x Riza aka RoyAi. The belligerent sexual tension, the trust, and the allegiance they have with each other were enough for me to cheer for them as a couple.
Eric Myers and Taylor Earhardt command just as much respect, determination, loyalty, courage, and strength as Roy and Riza do as a military-style power couple. Eric’s and Taylor’s hot-blooded, formidable, fierce, and hard-nosed expertise as upholders of justice postulates them as a couple prepared to punish perpetrators and award genuine heroism. They also share a lot in common not only in terms of them being take-charge, formidable, and hot-blooded soldiers with attitude but also being military-oriented Power Rangers. Eric’s fiery fierceness as the Quantum Ranger all decked in hot-blooded red and Taylor’s regal power as the Soaring Eagle Wild Force Ranger all donned in shimmering yellow illustrate how warm, let alone hot, colors merge to create an exciting sensation worthy of getting any action fan’s blood rapidly circulating with adrenaline. I always insist that Eric x Taylor or Quantum Eagle is my number one favorite Red Ranger x Yellow Ranger couple to the point where I crown them King and Queen of the Red x Yellow Ranger couples because of their belligerent sexual tension and militaristic strength.
Inuyasha and Ayame take center stage with their feral ferocity, stupendous strength, incomparable combat prowess, and an unparalleled combination of Inuyasha’s magnificent muscles and Ayame’s furious fists. This majestic power couple consisting of a dog yokai warrior king and a wolf yokai warrior queen shows how they are not afraid to get their hands dirty and pummel the competition they find themselves in. Inuyasha’s super strength, magnificent muscles, and bold brutality exceptionally complement Ayame’s furious fists, fleet feet, and dedicated determination. When their opponents are left writhing in pain after dealing with Inuyasha’s brutal grappling prowess and Ayame’s speedy striking skills, this mighty power couple endeavors to spend quiet nights with abundant spicy intimacy in their cave home. I make no apologies for being a dedicated InuAya partisan, and it has been staying that way ever since I plucked up the courage to draw fanart of them. I am also convinced that Inuyasha and Ayame work amazingly in combat tournament scenarios, especially when knocking down stronger opponents.
Raymond and Alex take the main podium by their collective attractiveness, impeccable charisma, and beautifully spun-out synergy which has them see the best in each other and constructively encourage each other to be the best versions of themselves. Raymond and Alex perfectly encapsulate a power couple that combines his magnificent muscles as a bodybuilder and her quintessential quickness as an experienced martial artist. Furthermore, they both use their respective physical prowess to encourage young people to be more active and stronger, especially considering Raymond’s tenure as a gym instructor and Alex’s passion for physical fitness. Raymond’s magnificently manly muscles are not just for exhibition purposes, for he can also demonstrate fine wrestling skills worthy of a Greek Olympic champion. Even Alex uses her lithe figure to make her martial arts techniques flashy yet effectively powerful. Raylex is one power couple that grows with time and age. The more I admire Raymond and Alex as a couple, the more I have learned to discover how flexible, genuine, and gorgeous they are together.
There is no doubt that my love and admiration for Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex know no bounds. These seven power couples are grand enough to open the pearly gates of Heaven and have their unique brands of unconditional love shine in everything they do. They all challenge each other to be the best versions of themselves and will always remain as each other’s bedrock in sickness and health. Therefore, all seven power couples remain unstoppable.
I hope you all enjoyed this, and I will see you in the next submission. Take care, stay safe, and continue showing your love for Superman x Wonder Woman, Ryu x Chun-Li, Ken x Cammy, Roy x Riza, Eric x Taylor, Inuyasha x Ayame, and Raymond x Alex, everybody.

My 2023 Art Summary
December 31, 2023 in The Splendid Seven
Happy New Year, everybody. Antoni here. The year of Our Lord 2023 is fast approaching its end. Therefore, it is time for me to feature the pieces of work that I have enjoyed doing since this year. Yes, I know my fanart uploading has been a bit slower and fewer this year. This is because I have been producing more online reviews on my YouTube channel, which I am happy to say that I have now reached 1,930 subscribers, dealing with my three semesters going on four semesters as a Master’s in American Studies student attaining A’s and B’s on my transcript of records thus far and enjoying every discourse I have been sinking my teeth into, and doing everything I can to keep everything together in my university, YouTube, DeviantArt, and writing life. Furthermore, it has been four years since I have last traveled abroad, as I have been spending Christmas and New Year in Sydney, Australia, where I have been spending time with my outstandingly wonderful host family and witnessing everything I needed and wanted to witness thus far. This is especially true considering all the insanity I dealt with in graduating with honors/distinction in my Bachelor’s in English and Musicology and doing everything to improve greatly in my current Master’s in American Studies tenure. Nevertheless, everything I have been dealing with in this year has been fruitful, productive, and brilliant. I never regretted anything. I have been blessed thanks to my father, my mother, my younger siblings, all my relatives, all my friends, all my colleagues, and every actor, voice actor, singer, musician, artist, online reviewer, writer, online content creator, and academic I have constantly considered as my role model. With that said, let’s get cracking with my favorite pieces of work from each month.
January: Octagon Ice and Olympic Fire
2023 started off with a bang, as Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha aka the Inu Brothers took center stage. My anime martial arts AU headcanon was strong in this one, considering that Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha are the bedrocks of their martial arts team, The Splendid Seven. I wanted to capture the dichotomy of Sesshoumaru’s deadly prowess in Mixed Martial Arts and Inuyasha’s rampaging brutality in Pankration because of how relatively similar yet utterly different their main martial arts are. Sesshoumaru’s element of ice means that he can abide by octagonal cage regulations, uphold the martial arts code with all his being, and give his opponents the ground-and-pounds and Kimuras they deserve, while never giving in to rowdy obnoxiousness featured in the UFC reality television show. Inuyasha’s element of fire means that he can do anything and everything he wants in the Spartan arena from torture racks to double axe handles all while making his muscular virility an offering to Zeus and all the Olympian gods. Put these two dog Yokai brothers together, and they are ruthlessly invincible.
February: Olympic Champion Power Couple
Now, it is time to feature the first work containing my most beloved one true pairing of all time Inuyasha x Ayame. It clearly shows that my loyalty to my OTP knows no bounds and will always inspire me to create more InuAya fanart, let alone fan-related content. Nobody can slaughter, mash, and cream the competition like Inuyasha and Ayame can. With Inuyasha’s powerfully muscular brutality in Pankration and Ayame’s furiously fierce velocity in Kyuk Too Ki or Korean Kickboxing, no opponent can ever bring them down even if they tried. As Inuyasha’s background in Ancient Greek Wrestling, Ancient Greek Boxing, Ssireum, Combat Sambo, Vale Tudo, and Kapu Kuialua makes him a mighty Pankratiast and Ayame’s skills in Muay Thai, Dutch Kickboxing, Japanese Kickboxing, Muay Lerdrit, Bokator, and Muay Chaiya have made them gain a reputation for being powerful opponents, it is easy to see why competitors would not dare mess with this power couple. Inuyasha and Ayame have the physical might and the spicy intimacy to prove that they can conquer anyone who crosses their path.
March: The Seven Scintillating Sirens
Coinciding with my anime martial arts AU headcanon was me celebrating International Women’s Day the only way I knew how. I featured Rosé Thomas, Rose Anderson, Winry Rockbell, Megumi Minami, Maya Orihara, Solty Revant, and Kaoru Ichinose working together as a septet of spectacular soul sisters possessing all the punches, kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, shin strikes, grapples, and takedowns to their hearts’ desire. Given that I have been watching Karate Combat for nearly one or two years on YouTube and have been playing Tekken and Street Fighter when I was a child, I gave the Queens of Scintillating Strikes various Korean hybrid martial arts. Rosé Thomas had Yongmudo. Rose Anderson had Gongkwon Yusul. Winry Rockbell had Kuk Sool Won. Megumi Minami had Hwa Rang Do. May Orihara had Tang Soo Do. Solty Revant had Kong Soo Do. Kaoru Ichinose had Soo Bakh Do. Whether these ladies threw uppercuts, spinning back kicks, axe kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, chokeholds, or jointlocks, they combine elegant beauty with ferocious beastliness in their attacks. Outside their penchant for unleashing tornadoes of furious attacks on their opponents, they also love the finer things in life from art to music and are also fiercely protective of children.
April: Bulging Biceps are what a Warrior Queen Loves
Inuyasha x Ayame as a super strong and splendidly sexy power couple strike again for the second time. This was reasonable because it was InuAya Month 2023, which went rather sporadically because of the continuous growth of my YouTube content and starting the summer semester in my university among other real-life obligations. Yes, I was pleased to have done group shots of Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s fourteen children consisting of seven sons and seven daughters, at least where the two sets of triplets and three sets of twins are concerned, but nothing beats Inuyasha and Ayame as the mighty power couple and equally mightier parents they are intended to be. Furthermore, Inuyasha’s mightily magnificent muscles and Ayame’s fearlessly fabulous fierceness always compliment each other in the most glorious way possible. It also helps that Ayame desires her dear husband’s bulging biceps of titanium and granite, while Inuyasha is aroused by his precious wife’s advances. These two are certainly fortunate to have each other, and their fourteen children are grateful to have powerfully mighty parents.
May: Inuyasha the Mighty Pankration Champion
I always insist that Inuyasha is an exceptional match for Pankration as his signature martial art. What I argued went into effect when I first created my series of InuAya family individual profiles, which included not only Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s individual profiles, but also all of their children’s. So far, I have done profiles of their seven sons. I have not done profiles of their daughters yet, but that is another story. Inuyasha’s muscular might and manly magnificence make him an ideal combatant in Pankration to the point where more potent opponents would flee from his super strength and magnificent muscles. He would even make Heracles, Antaeus, Sisyphus, and Theseus green with envy because of Inuyasha’s super strength. Aside from Inuyasha’s bulging muscles and triumphant virility, he possesses several wrestling-based attacks that can easily overpower his opponents including guillotine chokes, rear-naked chokeholds, sharpshooters, torture racks, and piledrivers and boxing-based punches that can break all of his opponents’ bones such as double axe handles, hammer fists, and liver punches.
June: Ayame the Formidable Kyuk Too Ki Prizefighter
Coming to the conclusion that Ayame’s main martial art shall be Kyuk Too Ki or Korean Kickboxing was no easy feat. Although Kyuk Too Ki is basically a combination of kickboxing, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, and Hapkido, considering the range of punches, kicks, knee strikes, elbow strikes, and takedowns done, Ayame’s Kyuk Too Ki style is not only limited to the Korean, Japanese, and Thai striking combat arts. She would also have influences in Dutch Kickboxing from the Netherlands, Bokator from Cambodia, and both Muay Chaiya and Muay Lerdrit from Thailand. Therefore, she would demonstrate range and versatility in all of her punches, kicks, elbow strikes, knee strikes, and shin strikes, especially where her iron fists and speedy limbs can provide her with leverage and acceleration. Once Ayame steps into the ring to knock down stronger opponents, she would easily wipe the competition and make them fall down to the ground like felled sequoia trees. Her uppercuts, jabs, hooks, cross punches, elbow slashes, knee strikes, and axe kicks are certainly going to make her opponents suffer for a long time.
July: Bulging Biceps and Limbering Limbs
Inuyasha does feel at his most virile and his mightiest when he dons a protective cup made from demon lion’s fur, especially when he has his knockout queen of a wife Ayame by his side. They do not need any introduction in terms of what they can do to crush their enemies into self-pitying paeans running and ducking for cover. Opponents will feel massive pain when Inuyasha squeezes them in an overpowering bearhug, torture rack, and Full Nelson combo. Then comes Ayame to deliver her series of devastating jabs, uppercuts, hooks, overhands, liver punches, rabbit punches, and bolo punches, considering that her boxing gloves are made of a demon ox hide and bones. Once their attacks are done, their opponents will have no choice but to flee in utter terror. It is part of being the king and queen of the Northern Yoro Tribe and the worldwide martial arts tournaments that Inuyasha and Ayame consistently bring home the gold and exude confidence as champions. Neither hulking brutes nor stealthy strikers can knock them down, for they have each other to conquer the arenas and rings of the world.
August: Muscularly Colossal Build and Steely Iron Fists
Leave it to Inuyasha and Ayame to demonstrate that they are truly a couple rich in super strength, fierce ferocity, and copious amounts of confidence. Inuyasha is one bodybuilder king, wrestling champion, and Pankration winner who would never hesitate to strip down to his birthday suit, rub himself in olive oil, and have a nude bodybuilder posedown to please his number one lady Ayame. Ayame clearly demonstrates that she does not need her boxing gloves and shinguards to finish her enemies, for her handwraps and anklewraps suffice in making her movements free and easy but devastatingly forceful. Inuyasha’s kingly brand of muscular virility makes Ayame thoroughly aroused and hypnotized by his musclebound body from his bulging biceps to his granite glutes to his crushing calves. Ayame’s furious fists demonstrate that she always means business when protecting her family, especially her musclebound husband, from enemies, let alone those who are foolish enough to destroy him. When all the carnage is done, there is no doubt that Inuyasha and Ayame would have an intense makeout session in the end.
September: A Competition’s Virile Appeal
It was amusing to have had Inuyasha and Raymond be best friends forever and brothers from other mothers because I never thought about it before. The idea was based on the whole martial arts tournament scenario focusing on Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran versus Ulrich Wernerstein and his bodybuilder goons. Out of all the seven Yokai martial artists, Raymond would be easily inspired by Inuyasha’s brutal ferocity just as Alex is easily inspired by Ayame’s rampaging fists and feet. Sure, Raymond is mainly a bodybuilder, gym instructor, and an amateur wrestler at best. However, Inuyasha is that one friend willing to challenge Raymond and have him be the strongest combatant he can be. How does he do it, you ask? By engaging him in an Ancient Greek Pankration match with special focus on wrestling all while being naked and slathered in olive oil. Ayame and Alex would be indubitably aroused by their husbands’ muscular virility, tight brotherhood, and their undying penchant for combat, for Inuyasha is the Ryu Hoshi to Raymond’s Ken Masters.
October: Ferocious Jungle Muscle Rampage
Spooky Month in my lecture hall means one thing. Having George of the Jungle, Basuli, Tarzan, and Maugli unleash their primal, feral, and beastly sides to engage in combat full of blood, muscles, brutality, and viciousness. All four jungle warrior king brothers are pumped up, muscled up, and all oiled up to have the bodybuilding posedowns and mixed martial arts matches of their lives. Possessing the lion’s share of the combat brutality are obviously Basuli and Tarzan who have done a number on each other. Having them do a number on each other sounds more like a euphemism. Basuli and Tarzan have ferociously and lethally torn each other apart with punches, takedowns, grapples, bitemarks from their sharp fangs, and slashes from their sharper claws. thus giving each other bruises and blackeyes galore. Neither Basuli nor Tarzan are going to surrender, and they have the maniacally fang-exposed evil smiles to show it and even give Scar a good thrashing. George and Maugli are just as important in maintaining their brothers’ intense sparring match, but even they get involved in the blood-soaked carnage.
November: Wagnerian Irish Princess Party
Now, I have come to something more elegant and enchanting because this was Maddygirl13’s Owl House OC Halloween contest. Yes, I did it in November of all months. However, other passions and priorities came into play. Her contest inspired me to create a best friend, confidante, and sister from another mister for Maddygirl13’s OC, Niahm, in the form of my Owl House OC, Melanie. When I saw Maddy’s design of Niahm in her OC folder, I automatically thought that she would make an elegant and noble princess. After all. An elegantly noble princess does need a confidante in the form of her lady-in-waiting from time to time. Enter Melanie, who is the total opposite of Niahm donning her red hair and predominantly blue gown, as she has dark brown hair and is in a lavish attire consisting of purple, magenta, and fuchsia. Their dynamic made me think of Brangäne and Isolde from Richard Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde. For Melanie, I was envisioning the mezzos who sang Brangäne such as Blanche Thebom. As for Niahm, it was the dramatic sopranos singing Isolde such as Margaret Harshaw.
December: Elegant Ladies in Winter
My final piece for 2023 came in the form of seven ladies I have been wanting to draw for quite some time. They were Toran, Blue, Wakana, Mika Seido, Enju, Karan, and Takako Kawashima. In my anime martial arts AU headcanon, this septet of elegant and noble ladies constitute The Blood Empresses who are in charge of giving their enemies a barrage of brutal attacks. Toran’s mounted chokes and liver punches in Krav Maga, Blue’s circular throws and knife hand strikes in Pencak Silat, Wakana’s cervical locks and ox jaw strikes in Systema, Mika’s small joint manipulations and downward elbow slashes in Bokator, Enju’s downward elbow strikes and spinning elbows in Bokator, Karan’s reverse punches and shin kicks in Hapkido, and Takako’s calf kicks and spinning back fists in Taekwondo are definitely painful. However, when opponents are not being beaten up as a result of underestimating them, these fine and fabulous ladies love to soak in the holiday spirit by walking in a winter wonderland. To these ladies, the holidays are all about enjoying the simpler things in life and embracing the winter season.
There you have it, ladies and gentlemen, my 2023 art summary. It has been a pleasure producing fanart in that year. I know I would have loved to produce more Inurangers fanart content. However, my university life and a bunch of other priorities got in the way. Nevertheless, I am excited to see what 2024 has in store. Until then, I hope the new year will be an exciting for all of you. Take care, stay safe, and may your 2024 be prosperous, everybody.
