long range bullet: Tsukasa Jun: Doujinshi Contributions

• tsukasa jun : doujinshi contributions •
For over a decade, Tsukasa Jun has been a member of an arcade game-focused doujinshi circle called Kacchu Musume (roughly, 'armor girl'). His early contributions to the group's anthologies were mainly color covers based on game characters, but later he began contributing manga and additional color illustrations as well. As he grew tired of drawing game characters, he started coming up with his own characters for cover illustrations. Tsukasa's favorite characters to draw in these volumes seem to be those from the Street Fighter and Resident Evil/Biohazard series. Unless otherwise noted, each of these doujinshi contains a healthy amount of adult content.

Back cover
	Seen Cyber C 60pp Kacchu Musume, 2001 Contributed: 1 color illustration This relatively small doujinshi calls itself a "GGX Only Book," and Guilty Gear X is certainly the only series featured herein. The volume has (surprisingly) almost no adult content, and has several stories featuring GGX characters. Tsukasa's contribution to the work is a full-color illustration of Baiken. Sample
	甲冑通信 Vol. 26 Kacchu Tsuushin vol. 26 46pp Kacchu Musume, Winter 2000 Contributed: 1 monochrome illustration Tsukasa contributed to this volume a line drawing of Lum from Urusei Yatsura with...a Zakrello from Gundam 0079, along with words of encouragement to the team. The rest of the volume is fairly scattered, with original characters mixed in with copyrighted ones, and features a short segment based on Boku no Natsuyasumi.
	高床式モビルスーツ Takayukashiki Mobile Suit (High-floor-type Mobile Suit) 264pp, B5, ¥3,000 Kacchu Musume, 8/11/2000
	食用フランス人 Shokuyou France-jin (Edible Frenchman) 164pp, B5 Kacchu Musume, 2000 Contributed: front cover, back cover This is another volume with no Tsukasa manga contribution. The collection contains parodies of characters from Guilty Gear X most prominently and also includes characters from King of Fighters, To Heart, Street Fighter EX, Sakura Taisen, Kanon, and Biohazard. The book's section of color pages is especially of note, as it has several illustrations that are quite beautiful. Sample

Also present are characters from Princess Crown, Dino Crisis, Silent Hill, Last Blade, Dead or Alive, Tron ni Kobun, Tomb Raider, Street Fighter EX, Cardcaptor Sakura, DiGi Charat, and Samurai Shodown.

	ゴジラVSカレー味 Godzilla vs. Currytaste 267pp Kacchu Musume, 1996 Contributed: front cover, back cover, color illustrations, text Tsukasa contributed a healthy number of color illustrations to this collection, nearly all of fighting game characters (Nakoruru, Mai Shiranui, a deadly-looking Cammy, Felicia, Taki, Chun Li, and finally April from Hot Gimmick entirely au naturel), and a page of color manga panels with characters from Biohazard.

Some rather rough and grotesque stuff is present in an included Front Mission story, and discretion is advised. There's also a very pretty manga story that's based on Wizardry V. Back cover
	ちらります Chirarimasu 60pp 10/20/1994 Contributed: monochrome illustration This volume features single monochrome illustrations from just under 30 artists, including Tsukasa Jun, Tsukasa Kotobuki, Takuya Inoue, and the famous Haruhiko Mikimoto. The theme here is flashes or glances of something titillating, and each of the illustrations reflects that in some way. Sample 1 Sample 2 Sample 2
	トロピカル力道山 Tropical Rikidohzan 228pp Kacchu Musume, 1994 Contributed: monochrome illustrations Tsukasa may "only" have contributed two illustrations to this collection, but that's not to say it's without value. Aside from the variety of fighting-game parodies common to Kacchu Musume's works (with Virtua Fighter, Art of Fighting, Street Fighter II, Fatal Fury, Vampire, and the ever-popular Samurai Shodown), the book features parodies of Fire Emblem, Kikikaikai (Pocky & Rocky), Dragon Ball, Twinbee (starting Winbee), and - er - Itadaki Street. Sample 1 Sample 2
	ギロチン大統領 President Guillotine 196pp Kacchu Musume, 1994 Contributed: front cover Tsukasa contributed the front cover to this issue, but naught else.

Also featured are King of Fighters, Genesis cult classic Alisia Dragoon, Vampire, Samurai Shodown 2, and supernatural-themed anime series GS Mikami.
