Snugooi Kagami Mochi - Happy New Year


Good afternoon. Sorry for the delay. It is around New Year’s Eve and it is New Year’s Day in another country from afar away. This is a picture of Snugooi sitting on a Mochi, in which the Snugooi and the Mochi underneath represents the Kagami Mochi which is representing the New Year and next to Snugooi are two hammers and a towering Daruma known as the Daruma Otoshi.

This tradition with Kagami Mochi on top of wodden boxes with Paper is the Kagami Biraki. This was not the only Kagami Mochi art I saw. Pokémon did it with Pikachu, Dedenne, Rowlet and other Pokémon, and there was a animated gif with Rimuru Tempest with a Spider from a Tensura x “Kumodesu?” collaboration.

Also I did a Daruma Otoshi with the brown hammer using the Lockemon Bearvoyance, Llampas, Guruchi, Therpal, Tofrug, and Burbwhirl because I saw a Daruma Otoshi of some Pokemon from an old New Year’s Day artwork which used the Kalos starters and Darumaka, so instead of a Darumaka I thought of using a Bearvoyance because this is a fanart for a Lockemon region.

The Tofrug on the upper left that looks like a mallet is known as the Uchide no kozuchi. Again I saw a Uchide no kozuchi of Chespin from an old Pokémon artwork that was celebrating New Year’s Day, so I used a Lockemon instead.

Well that is it. I will post more so stay tuned.

Also Happy New Year!

By the way it is available on newgrounds as well. If you support my work and use newgrounds, please be sure to give a rating on the Newgrounds one. It would help my work.

It’s still 2025 for 15 more minutes where I am, so I can’t legally wish you a happy new year yet :pensive:

Why don’t you just make it then..? Sounds like a fun idea!
