i think it took me a while to grasp her character too ? her beast form was changed to a fox/wolf later on, so i did some more passes on her design. in my opinion she's too "genki" in this version haha

here's some later takes i did! getting closer to the final design

i think these are fun lol

especially these guys haha

this probably fits better in the episode 6 thread or something but i found these while sorting through files haha (i think i was trying to explore their history and dynamic)
