2023 recap-bye bye 2023-welcome 2024

Posted by KokoroHatsaru - December 28th, 2023


Welp, another year to go, this year was crazy for me tbh, but awesome at the same time, leaving the bad stuff aside, so yeah, ive been getting more active on newgrounds events that have been getting organized, and i will keep being part of ng's community cause ive known some great ppl, so yeah, here's my review


Starting the year, i made some art to welcome this year (i want to make another one to welcome 2024, hope i have time) and like, WOAO, i really liked it honestly, well, i posted on the last day of 2022 but still counts

and i also started a dead proyect that was supposed to be ready on pixel day of this year, but just kept going till leaving it aside, i have some news about it btw, but it will be till the end of this info


ok so, FEBRUARY, that month, some ppl know me cause i worked on A Hat in Time anime fanmade series for 4 years, wich made me improve my art, animation and evenjapanese voice acting, welp, that month i couldnt work on it cause one of my family members, my mother got a surgery of her womb, and had to rest for a whole month, glad she's ok now, but during the month, i remembered i wanted to do something for battleblock theater's 10th anniversary, and i had done a whole OVA's dub, that's right, im talking about Hatty again OVA, my gift for BBT's 10th birthday but the work took me like two months, so here goes...


MARCH, i remember when, before ppl discover that ThatJhonnyGuy was actually THAT kind of person, i got part of the NG Audio Portal 20th Anniversary Collab, it was fun tho, here's the collab if you want to check it out


Ok so April, it was interesting cause woao, my april fools joke this year was...something XD, i also gained some hate on tik tok by some kiddos cause of it, but it wasnt that much tbh, but ya know, joke is a joke, get some laughs, it was THIS THING OVER HERE

i even included it to my newgrounds anime shorts playlists cause why not? i got some laughs while animating and dubbing me, but some months later ppl tolds me "hey Koko, animate the full thi-" and I was all like, AAAAAAH!!! but anyways, 2 days later, it was BBT's bday, and i posted the Hatty Again OVA

it didnt really gained much views but it was worth it xd


MAY! THE MONTH OF NEWGROUNDS cause it was pico day, I couldnt believe i won 6th place, cause WOOOAOOO, TOM FULP LIKED THE ANIME SHORT, btw this is where the newgrounds anime shorts series started

and some more thing here is that i also finally got out of my biggest nightmare, the highschool, i didnt really liked my schools, ya know, weird girl of the class? but finally got outta there, and when i was graduated, i started animating the Castle Crashers OVA 3, like, on may 20-27 i think, i forgor (and i think this month was where my freakin alt acc was born, let me see...MAY 24!!! GOOD PECK IT SAKURA! >:( )


welp, on june, there was also a Piconjo day, aaaand yeah, it was my first time drawing what Piconjo really likes, ya know XD, but i made a censored version adding a bread instead of that, ya know what it is


July, this is where the Castle Crashers OVA 3 finally premiered, and is the OVA that gained more views! maybe cause of castle crashers fandom reviving, or that one scene that was misunderstood, or cause ppl used to play castle crashers in their childhood, there are MAAAAAAANY reasons, but im glad ppl liked it :D


Talking about castle crashers, in August, i made art and a showcase for it's 15th anniversary, where i was planning OVA 4 and animated their secondary attacks

oh, and i also started my commissions during that month,wich btw i updated some info including the mexican pesos chart, i might post it on january 8


SEPTEMBER ALREADY?! this is where i finnaly started my college phase, you know, THE U! and dedicated an anime short of it, cause i finnaly got to socializate, im really extrovert, but it's difficult when i start talking with ppl irl XD, but anyways, this is the anime short i made for it

the funny thing here is that i made temporal designs to the castle crashers bois, and also, my big sis God_ty started voicing as blue knight here, her voice is charming and can also do soft deep voices, so why not? SHE'S DA GOAT QUEEN!


October, the Spooky Month, I participated on a really good collab called Dr. Good's Operating Theatre 2023 , hosted by the good ol DannyGoodShirt where i included a halloween anime short featuring the Spooky kids and Isaac, HOW?! SR PELO LIKED IT AND PUT IT IN HIS FAVORITES, YIPPEEEE, i was so surprised THANK YOU PELITOOO


During november, i remembered i made this anime short for a homework of the U, im glad my teacher allowed me doing an animation instead of something recorded, im not good at using the camera, but i had a chance to make something for the newgrounds anime short series, even if it was a late gift for Madness Day


AND FREAKIN FINALLY, DECEMBEMEMEMEMEEEEEERRRR, ok srry, december XD, i turned 19, i feel old, i think i finished the CC OVA 4 storyboard when december started, and also was in the NG Tankmas Message Audio Collab made by Alasteir ,aaaand what else? OH YEAH, the secret santa, i loved secret santa, and lastly, the last chapter of this year of the newgrounds anime shorts, the Tankmas special, hope you guys had a really nice tankmas btw :3


so yea, lots of things happened, and what's next?

WHAT COMES FOR 2024?!


YES, ofc there's going to be more NG anime shorts, more for pico day, piconjo day, even one for clock day if i rember, The upcoming castle crashers OVA 4


OH! and you rember when i leaked some sprites for some death proyect of pixel day that i was talking about on the january section? well, we're trying to revive it and trying to finish it in time to post in in pixel day 2024, ladies and gentelmen, together...

we have...

WE HAVE...

AAAAAAAAA-

ok stop, we have this


iu_1136501_8330560.webp

TACHAAAAAAAAAAN!!! CASTLE CRASHERS-BARBARIANS STRIKES BACK!

AND NOPE, IT'S NOT A JOKE, IT'S FR

the proyect is finally getting revived! RadicalRonik doing the music, a person who's not in newgrounds helping with the programming, my sis God_ty voicing Blue knight and testing the game once is ready and me doing the animations and bgs, hopefully we'll finish this before pixel day, cause i want to see the result, im exited for it XD, everyone's doing a good job there, so here's the thing, this is a fanmade game obviously, as you can see, this is based on the SNES/SFC beat em up games, ofc this has voice acting! Hope you like the tumbnail, and stay tunned


so that's all for now, i hope everyone had a good 2023, stay say and let your 2024 dreams come true, happy early new year! :D
