Happy Fifth-Year DeviantArt Anniversary to me, everybody, it’s your old pal Antoni here feeling elated as ever to have spent five years on DeviantArt. Let the gratitude and the love commence because I am abundant of these for all of you who have kept up with me for the past five years that I have been here on DeviantArt. I know I have been slower this year pumping out more InuAya month content, which the nineteen remaining submissions will be released most likely next week and this coming May. Nevertheless, I want to use my Fifth-Year DeviantArt Anniversary Art Summary as an honorary InuAya month submission, especially since I will turn 31 years old next week, thus having me collect thirty-one art pieces that resonate with me and bearing a common theme which is my Splendid Seven AU headcanon with special focus on Inuyasha x Ayame as my OTP for life. Although I specialize in my Splendid Seven AU Headcanon consisting of not only Inuyasha and Ayame but also Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Hakkaku, Ginta, and Shunran whether in terms of them as the Mighty Morphin Inurangers or participants in the world’s most prominent martial arts tournaments, the cornerstone of my AU headcanon has always been the strong romantic relationship between Inuyasha and Ayame who are the definition of an unbreakable power couple. Sesshoumaru’s and Shuran’s formidability as a platonic duo of comrades may be astounding, considering Sesshoumaru’s lethalness as a Mixed Martial Artist and Shuran’s raw power as a Professional Wrestler. Sesshoumaru’s and Inuyasha’s brotherhood may be legendary, with Sesshoumaru the Mixed Martial Artist being the Ryu to Inuyasha the Pankratiast’s Ken as a duo of powerful dog Yokai brothers. Shuran’s, Hakkaku’s, and Ginta’s brotherhood may be grand, especially since Shuran’s bravado in Professional Wrestling serves as a compliment to Hakkaku’s durability in Muay Boran and Ginta’s perseverance in Lethwei. Inuyasha’s, Hakkaku’s, and Ginta’s unbreakable friendship as a trio of best buddies for life may be phenomenal, thus bringing Inuyasha’s strength in Pankration, Hakkaku’s stealth in Muay Boran, and Ginta’s stamina in Lethwei. Ayame’s and Shunran’s sisterhood may be outstanding, given Ayame’s power in Kyuk Too Ki and Shunran’s precision in Shaolin Kung Fu propelling their strikes to be lethally painful. Hakkaku and Ginta may have a beautiful romantic relationship with Shunran while jettisoning Hakkaku’s and Ginta’s skills in Muay Boran and Lethwei to work fabulously with Shunran’s skills in Shaolin Kung Fu. However, Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s undeniably formidable and beautifully unparalleled romantic dynamic as a power couple remains the gold-medal standard in my eyes. Overlooking Inuyasha’s mighty muscles in Pankration and Ayame’s furious fists in Kyuk Too Ki, they brim with unconditional love, noble allegiance, and immeasurable respect for each other. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s might and power as husband and wife are the glue that holds The Splendid Seven together whether in competition against stronger opponents or standing together as a united family. Inuyasha’s and Ayame’s exceptionally romantic dynamics as a husband-and-wife duo transfer nicely to their family dynamics as father and mother to their fourteen children, consisting of seven strong sons and seven fierce daughters. Inuyasha’s muscular virility as a champion Pankratiast with a bodybuilder’s musculature, the Nemean Lion’s ferociousness, Heracles’s strength, and Theseus’s manliness and Ayame’s lethal fierceness as a prizefighter Kyuk Too Ki warrior with a lean musculature, a boxer’s furious fists, a Nak Muay’s devastating limbs, and a Taekwondo practitioner’s unabashed speed are the hallmarks that have solidified Inuyasha and Ayame to be the mighty power couple they have been for twenty-eight years. Those hallmarks are also evident in their children, with their sons being as strong, muscular, and handsome as their father and their daughters being as fierce, determined, and fearless as their mother. With 41-year-old Inuyasha being the strong and muscular Alpha Male king of the family and 38-year-old Ayame being the fearlessly courageous and physically formidable warrior queen of the family, they have certainly raised their children to be the best fighters and individuals they can be. 28-year-olds Masataka, Masaya, and Masaru are the handsome muscle triplet sons specializing in Combat Sambo who display virility, toughness, determination, and valiance in the face of battle while looking dashing in doing so. 27-year-olds Kenta and Keita are the manly muscle twin sons specializing in Kapu Kuialua who love to flaunt their bulging muscles to everybody who fancies them and love to give their enemies a good throttle to the nines. 26-year-olds Kazuhiko and Kaito are the dashing muscle twin sons specializing in Luta Livre Esportiva who combine muscular virility with valiant courage to overcome any obstacle they find themselves in. 25-year-old Kiriko is the tomboyish Amazon warrior daughter specializing in Shoot Boxing who is the paradigm of determination and perseverance in all of her endeavors as a fighter and as a woman. 24-year-olds Momoko, Makoto, and Mikoto are the rowdy prizefighter triplet daughters specializing in Dutch Kickboxing who capture the essence of fighting spirits with all of their bodies, minds, and souls. 23-year-olds Maya and Minako are the rough and tumble fighter twin daughters who represent fearlessness and fierceness in every challenge they encounter. 22-year-old Meika is the tough cookie combatant daughter who despises remaining idle and always works hard on her skills as a fighter and encounters all of her endeavors with openness and high interest. With Inuyasha’s, Ayame’s, and their children’s strengths combined, they define what it is like to be a strong family through thick and thin. As I am about to approach 31 years old, my only resolve is to never give up my love for Inuyasha and Ayame as a mighty power couple as well as their equally mighty family because the passion I have for my number one romantic pairing for life and the family that I created for them can never be stopped. The same can be said about Sesshoumaru, Shuran, Inuyasha, Hakkaku, Ginta, Ayame, and Shunran as a septet of powerful Yokai martial artists specializing in different fighting styles. There is never a day that I want…
