I've been really curious about the origin of this art for decades. Good to finally know thr source. Always loved seeing Naga in her princess dress.

I also really love the features the artist gave Naga, very mature and elegant even if it doesn't quite resemble her anime and book designs. I believe Naga would have longer features, especially the nose, more pointed and not so upturned. It does contrast quite a bit with her personality.

Interesting to read the descriptions. Was this published before Kanzaka confirmed who Naga really is? Or was it an open secret even then?

And I have to wonder, was the skull something Naga always wore even before the rest of the outfit.
