Last up: Suisei-Ojii-Sama

Suisei-Ojii-Sama creates a variety of fan art, but most of it is inspired by Disney or Sailor Moon. This unique series is quite the creative endeavor for the United States-based artist.

Speaking on their inspiration, the artist said:

"A while ago, I posted an image of Belle from Beauty and the Beast from a story I was working on where the Disney princesses became magical schoolgirls (it's as silly as it sounds). I haven't really done anything with them since then, so I thought I would just work with them in the shape form that I've been using recently."

Princess: Mulan of Zhongguo

"Mulan, I would say, is the tomboy of the group. Think of her almost as Sailor Jupiter, but with a sword that she can use to communicate with and control spirits (that's what all the smoke and the glowy orbs are supposed to be). She's not afraid to get into fights and beat people down, but all she really wants is a friend."suisei-ojii-sama

Princess: Jasmine of Agrabah

"Her character in the story would be very mysterious, the last princess to regain her powers because of something she did in the past concerning her beloved Aladdin and a fight for his life."suisei-ojii-sama

Princess: Belle of Rosaille

"Her character is very much like her character in the movie: beautiful but quiet, with an affinity for written words rather than spoken ones. She is actually Aurora's sister in the story and has always been a little jealous of her. The Rose Mirror has become hers and can reveal the truth as well as cast protection circles and shields."suisei-ojii-sama

Princess: Aurora of Thorngale

"Princess Aurora of Thorngale. Her powers are attached to a set of magical bracelets (with the same name as her kingdom) which the Princess of Thorngale can use to command the winds (weave tornadoes... get it? Forget the fact that spinning wheels have nothing to do with weaving, please) and also launch those nifty thorn-like attachments as projectiles."suisei-ojii-sama

Princess: Ariel of Atlantica

"Ariel, in the story, is the leader of this ragtag team of magical schoolgirls. She commands control over the Trident of Atlantica, used by all of its rulers since its inception. Anything that the Trident can do in the movie, Ariel can use it for (it doesn't mean she knows how, though...). In her free time, Ariel is an average student (more on the barely passing side...) but also an avid dancer. Aurora is her best friend, and together they're ready for anything."suisei-ojii-sama
