Bow-Wow! Okami fanart that’s a lot like the Okami fanart paintings and drawings in “Ammy the Symbol” but for a younger audience – an audience that still hasn’t felt the urgency of acquiring wisdom, but instead seeks adventure and excitement. (Resulting in the “unintended side-effect” of wisdom.) These artworks show, and also invite the brashness…

What makes Ammy happy? Nature, beauty, friends, and simply life itself? Probably any of those things, but “borrowing” turnips may very well be all of those things at once! Think about it; turnips are grown in the soil and part of nature, because nature is beautiful then so are fresh turnips… It’s with friends (Issun)…

Ammy engaged in combat with evil, to bring light, life and beauty back into the world; herself however, inescapably drawn into the brutality, baseness and perils of direct battle. Like the “Divine Retribution” post, but also showing the physical and emotional wounds, as well as the wrenching of the soul that facing evil can inflict.…

Our favourite bug Poncle Issun, shown magnified so that we may observe him in his natural habitat. Even though Issun was quite superficial and selfish at times, without him Ammy would have failed in her dangerous mission – having pulled himself together when she needed him the most. If you’ve played through Okami, you’ll have…

In November 2020, we’ll be able to get our hands on a new “Nendoroid” Chibi Ammy Okami figure, created under the supervision of Ammy’s character designer Kenichiro Yoshimura. Also, back in June (8th, 2020) it was revealed that Ikumi Nakamura (who worked on the original Okami) wants to visit Capcom headquarters and convince the bigwigs…

The kind of artworks that Okami’s Issun (Ammy’s bug/friend) might paint: Artworks that explain Ammy’s might and fitness to rid Okami’s polluted “Nippon” (ancient mythical Japan) of its demons, and inspire devotion towards Ammy amongst Nippon’s adults who have lost faith in the “Brush Gods”, or never had any faith to begin with. These are…

Okami had plenty of humor, and so it also inspired artists to create funny fanart. Today’s blog post shows wacky and humorous situations from Ammy’s adventures, and also some “what if” interpretations. “What if Ammy were to lick the giant boulders of ice in the Moon Cave, instead of melting them with fire?” Well… I…

Ammy eating food… she absolutely LOVES food! If Ammy weren’t banishing demons all day and burning off all those excess calories, she’d be as heavy and wide as “Sleepy the Bear”! So then, why are there only a couple of drawings available that show Ammy with food? This is a mystery that I have yet…

While Hideki Kamiya (Okami’s director and writer) may have had the original idea for the Okami video game, it’s his work along with the people and President/CEO (Atsushi Inaba) of Clover Studio and their combined skills and efforts that had crafted an idea, into reality. The result of Hideki and Clover Studio’s hard work is…

A fond and more personal reminder of Ammy, for those who know her well enough to not need a poster-type of picture to remember her by. To continue this series of themed fanart blog posts, let’s imagine how those who had “actually witnessed” Ammy might want to remember her. The kind of painting, drawing or…
