Chapter 3 End Card: Asada Hiroyuki

I drew the mysterious nightmare hunter Shion, a new character in the Japanese version, as I felt a familiarity with them that is close to my illustration style.
With the presence of the new character Shion, who does not exist in the original version, I’m excited to explore the fusion of the original story and the new world!
