I wounder if this version of Don Quixote will be as delusional as the original,judging by the art I'm personally thinking 'no'.

Not quite sure what to make of that hunky Don Quixote, haha... I wonder if that's just how the good knight imagines himself and Sancho looking, or if they're really aging him down and sobering him up? Looks like weird stuff!

That would be pretty cool if that was in fact only how they look in Don Quixote imagination. it would be a great way to illustrate his delusion.

Is the blonde next to him supposed to be Sancho?! If that's the case, then I really want to see what Dulcinea del Toboso looks like.

I suppose you could be right ,as Marzan pointed out that could be only how Don Quixote sees himself and his squire in his own mind.

Hey, maybe this will turn out wonderfully. Quite enjoyed it when I read it over the summer for my AP English class in High School, so I'm kinda itchin' for--

*sees cover*

--an adaptation where an old tall man and and a short fat one are recreated as bishonen in a possibly seme-uke relationship NOT

Eh, will probably still check out it's first chapter or two. Razz

I listened through an audiobook version of this picturing TTGLs Kamina as Don Quixote.

They seemed similar to me, except DQ is batshit insane while Kamina's seemingly unfounded confidence in spite of overwhelming odds makes the impossible possible.

They seemed similar while puffing themselves up before battle, anyway..

PS. I would prefer the Penguin design from the Don Quixote stores Razz
