About Bikko.
I hope you'll read this If you have the time,
[Who Is Bikko?]
She is a character by "ROMANTIC FOOL since 1995".
To make her hard to search. her name contains Katakana, Hiragana, Kanji.
I could not imagine how popular she would become amongst you.
Some people loves her, so I think now is the time I write something about her.
I don't wanna do that, because some people had blame me for creating this character.
Here are the document that I wrote in "Kesson Shoujo (Defected Girl?)"
[Real Life Process]
A girl, friend of mine, who had lost her arm and some fingers during an accident.
People around her, they felt sorry for her, looked at her as a freak or treated her like one.
But, she did not mind them. She has a gallant attitude. What a beauty I thought, when I saw her.
I respect for and/or hanker for her. That's the reason I draw Bikko.
However, is this situation only for her?
We all have something missing, don't we? That what makes us (defective)human.
Of course, you and I are no exception of this fate.
We accept it and live with it; I think that is important.
I think it is disgusting and cruel, to discriminate: treat them like a freak , label them as "abnormal", disgusted to touch them or even go near them, because of the fact they have certain defects or lost parts of their body, and treating them as if they're not there,
So, I draw Bikko, an unsightly girl who accept her loss and lives on strongly.
I understand I could not express the pain and anger the defects (handicap people) would be feeling clearly through Bikko, because I ,myself, am not a defect person.
But I have drawn Bikko with you people in mind.
And I hope you would stop thinking about your loss or someone's loss, and find your strength to live on.
However, if it hurts you, I want you to ignore her. She is, after all, just an underground character.
