Hypnotizing isn't it?
It always blows my mind that even after all this time, I still come across creators that have been putting up INSANE content for half a decade that completely flew under my radar.
The creator I'll cover today hits a very soft nostalgic spot with their very distinct artstyle that emulates the 90's anime style. Shows such as Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion, Dragon Ball are both motifs and inspirations in TEKU's works.
In a scene so heavily plagued with anime babes that look like carbon copies of one another, we often find ourselves skipping through explicit content as if we were browsing for a furniture in an IKEA magazine. Be it games or art, the look for something different is always there.
The younger audience in their early 20's is likely to be less familiar with the style, so even though I would like to say that it may be a hit or miss... my god... Just look at these perfections!
Heck, there are dozens of H games released every day, that I could easily write a post every single day and still won't be able to keep up. But content must have more weight, higher quality, different.
Contrary to the pronunciation and the artstyle, TEKU is in fact western, and have been publishing art - mainly comics for a decade, when he was more known as Tekuho. He's been far more active however since around 2017, and haven't stopped since.
One thing in common to ALL of the artists I've covered so far, is that they all stayed within the digital realm. But you can already guess who didn't.
A very recent Kickstarter fund have been completed, where the pledgers will receive a PHYSICAL artwork of 2023's best + bonus works. (it honestly looks fuckiing amazing)
If you already found yourself big fans of their artwork, and looking to grab a copy yourself, then make sure to follow their socials below as they might end up selling extra leftover copies.
Throughout the years TEKU has been releasing new OC's in both standalone CGs and their own comics that were published Patreon, until he finally took the plunge and 2022 and released the Visual Novel "Driven Affairs", featuring his gorgeous OC's.
Truth be told, I found TEKU thanks to Driven Affairs. As you all know, me and VNs don't really get along, unless... they're PEAK H material.
When a project's quality is so damn good, I honestly feel it is my sword duty to spread the word.
Admittedly the story can be a hit or miss to some.
You take the role of a chauffer for high profile customers, and slowly become more involved with their private lives until they decide to let you into their exclusive lifestyle, and into some other private parts later on.
Look, I'm no scholar, but if a story can get a good chuckle out of me and prevent me from mashing spacebar, I'll take that as W. However, while it is well-written, the MC simping his way to get some ass might be off putting to some.
Personally I'm the kind of person that strongly believe in "The end justify the means".
As long as you're satisfied with the result and how you feel about it, then do whatever it takes to get that clout.
Either way, a good VN for me is artwork first, story-telling second, and context third.
You can be damn sure that I'll be willing to read even something nutty like a scat fantasy if the art is Michelangelo and the story is Shakespeare. (That better be some world class poop art to make me even consider it though...)
I got through all 5.5 chapters (so far). Do keep in mind that updates are a slow-burn, kinda like Demon Deals. But just like the latter - it makes it all so worthwhile when a new update hits the shelf.
What can I say? with such a stunning art skills, TEKU has earned every right to work at his own pace without anyone having the right to complain.

👉 You can keep up to date with TEKU's latest works, projects, WIP, and other lewd updates on their X. (I'm stunned that they haven't reached a much higher following)
⭐ All the real juice however is exclusively available on their Patreon.
HQ art, sketches, WIP, game updates, early access etc... you know the spiel. It's all there, and the best part is that they update almost on a daily basis for the highest tier supporters.
That'll be it for today's H legend.
Now if you don't mind, I'm gonna go see how I can grab one of those extra physical copies...
❤️ For relevant H content you may contact me in DM for referrals.
