A Note on Why This Site Exists
Over the years, I posted my work across multiple platforms — DeviantArt, Instagram, Tumblr, Pixiv, Twitter, and Facebook. I was never there to compete. I was there to share. To show the characters I had spent real time building, the worlds I had been quietly developing, and the stories I wanted to tell.
What I received in return was hostility.
AI was still in its early days when I began incorporating it into my workflow. That alone was enough to make me a target. People who disagreed with the direction the art world was heading took that frustration out on me personally. My work was called trash. Complaints were filed. Coordinated efforts were made to have me removed — and they worked. Overnight, accounts I had built over years were gone. The art was gone. The comments, the history, the record of the work — all of it, gone. No warning. No appeal. No explanation that held up.
What hurt most was not the bans themselves. It was the reason behind them. I was not removed for breaking rules. I was removed because people felt threatened and chose to silence me rather than engage. That distinction matters.
I never got to archive what was lost. I did not have the foresight to back everything up, and by the time it was gone, there was nothing to recover. Years of scenes, renders, and character development that existed only on those platforms simply disappeared.
ProjektKawaii exists because of that loss. This is where my work lives now — on my own terms, under my own name, with no algorithm and no mob standing between my art and the people who want to see it.
