Nsr Sayu - Tumblr Posts
Art!
Here is my first attempt at drawing the NSR artist!
(all of it was made in Google Drawing, constructive criticism is allowed.)
just now relized that ketai means portable in japanese
I'm glad someone got the reference this quick!
I picked this name because it relates to the district's aesthetic, that being social media.
The reason why I chose a Japanese word is because SAYU herself is implied to have Japanese based origins.
Since Galaxis is self-conscious about herself, is Ninki wanting to spread hate?
No, she's just as happy and cheerfull as SAYU.
I can see where you're going with this, but I don't plan on giving every character a personality swap.
Ninki no neko
Bootleg of: SAYU
District: Ketai
Aesthetic: social media
Genre: Chiptune
Abilities: basically anything as long as she has internet access
Personality: quiet, playful, somewhat childish
So I know that Mrs. Spice is out, but how will the intro to Nenki go?
(Drawing the intros has been taking so much out of me, so I'll probably just write them at this point forward)
SAYU: Hello friend!
Ninki no neko looks at SAYU in surprise, obviously not happy that she's here.
Ninki: How did you get here?! Papa said he boosted up security!
SAYU: I know it may look bad, but you need to understand that your boss is a bad person!
Ninki: NO! I don't believe you!
Ninki then pulls out her mike.
Ninki: And I won't let you hurt Papa!

Bootleg Artist Facts
(Since all the artists are all out now, I think now is a good time to reveal some facts on the artists!)
MC Aileen Galexis
She is actually one of the artists who knew about NSR and it's similarities, but she didn't call Kliff out due to her shyness.
Due to this information, she is actually a huge DJSS fan! Though she would probably relate more to the SAYU team.
She doesn't have a weird head like Supernova does, her helmet is just a stage prop that she prefers to never take off due to her being self-conscious.
If she did take off her helmet, she would look pretty human.
She likes putting stickers on her ship and helmet!
Her age is around early 20s.
Her music gives off Daft Punk vibes, more specifically the Tron Legacy soundtrack.
Ninki no neko
Unlike SAYU, Ninki is an AI made by Kliff.
Kliff didn't expect Ninki to look up to him as a father figure when she was first created, but overtime he started to grow the same feelings!
Kliff was the one who sent the "new objective" to Ninki, which caused her to glitch out due to it counteracting her original objective.
After the battle, the SAYU team felt bad for Ninki and decided to patch her up before leaving.
She would probably get along most with Yinu, with them both being kids and all.
Due to her being an AI she doesn't have an official age, but mentally she's a young child.
Ms. Spice
Spice is able to take off her pumpkin head like an accessory.
She is more evil compared to all the other artists. This is due to her being created by magic, so she sees everyone as beneath her.
She doesn't really care for the Halloween aesthetic. It was more or less Kliff's idea.
She would get along most with DJSS and/or Tatiana.
Her physical age is a mystery due to her being made from magic, though mentally she's in her late 40s.
Her music gives off Darksouls vibes.
Donny(& NJ)
Donny is made more durable compared to 1010.
Donny was scraped because he apparently had a glitch in his system, though NJ saw potential in him and decided to repurpose him.
Unlike Neon, NJ is fully robotic due to her transmitting her whole consciousness into a robot.
NJ's color palate and design was made to look exactly the opposite of Neon's.
Donny would get along most with his cousins, 1010, while NJ would get along with most with Eve.
Donny is mentally in his late teens/early 20s, while NJ is in her late 30s.
They're music gives off Mystery Skulls vibes.
Randy
The factory isn't a district. Kliff just decided to give Randy the factory because they were limited on time and resources to build a fifth one.
The other reason why Kliff gave him the factory is because he helped build most of it.
It's only Randy's head and neck that's cybernetic, the rest of his body is in okay condition.
Randy is seen among most as kind of creepy, though he means no harm.
Randy is around his early 40s.
His music gives of Everywhere At The End Of Time vibes.
“Just a Glitch” Sayu’s redesign
(WARNING: somewhat unsettling imagery ahead.)
It’s for her advertisement 🥺
Heres a non gif version if ya want!

NSR SWAPS: 1010
I decided to swap 1010 with all of the artists + B2J
this took 3 days worth of work, so please reblog
Bunk bed junction — Steel Scrap
1010 “security bots” that got decommissioned
Auntie is a mechanic who bought the robots before they could be scrapped
Raihan is a big 1010 fan
It’s been 30 years since 1010 disappeared
DJ Subatomic Supernova — Area 10
1010 are alien themed robots
Most people use he/him for 1010, but they honestly don’t care what you use.
Factory is shaped like a ufo
Neon j is still a cyborg
I realize that solans hair looks kinda like @erigold13261 ‘s Rin design
Sayu — Project Rin
Project Rin is made by 4 veteran war robots
MK1-H is the one behind the music
MK1-Z was used in bot fighting
MK1-PH read books for children at a library
MK1-E painted after the war
Rin’s genre is Metalstep
Yinu — Bloom
1010 is a acapella quartet accompanied by a piano
Culo plays the piano
Jin lost his legs in the war
Pollen is a tenor, Petal is a alto, Rout is a bass, Bush is a baritone, and Culo is a countertenor.
Eve — Jin robotics
Jin is the same age range as May and Zuke. He lost his arm in an accident at a young age.
Jin was a robotics major with a side passion for the arts.
Rin was the first project he made. The others followed soon after.
After their synthetic forms(right) were made, Jin had the idea of making a cheaper commercial version of these models to be sold to the public
After you defeat them they use their old forms(left)
Tatiana — J
1010 was in their prime before the border wars. They played many genres, with rock being one of the most prevalent. They made security bots for themselves and those who could afford it.
Neon J was a man who got drafted and had to leave his creations to preform for themselves. 1010 couldn’t come to any decisions, and fell from stardom
After the battle Neon lost his body in, he retired and was saddened to find what had happened to his creations. He hard reset them and left them in a scrapyard, but kept a group of 10 base robots to tinker with.
He ended up making his maximum security team from his emotional turmoil. He didn’t touch five.
After you defeat J, he uses the five untouched bases to bring back 1010
I will be working on Sayu next
1010 SAYU DJSS
DUDE WTF I LOVE IT
no straight roads pride icons! all my personal headcanons, but feel free to DM me with any alternate versions you would like and i will happily edit them for ya!
please reblog to use! i spent forever drawing these, reblogs are appreciated!!!
Some NSR doodles. Since I've started ANOTHER playthrough.
I PEEKED IN MY DRAFTS AND REALIZED I HADN'T pOSTED THIS-
A bunch of Sayus for the soul! i don't do fanart very often, but there's something about it that makes you notice and appreciate small details in the character design
HERE'S ONE FOR THE SAYU ENJOYERS!!!
Also something for my birthday coming up next week ]:))
I fear I have once again cooked 💯🌈
(Alt. Versions of the right side!)
Also, I've been suggested by my mom that I should sell this as a poster! If I do make the choice to do that (meaning id likely make an etsy), would you guys be down to buy it? And if you vote yes, leave which format you'd like it in! (Either digital or physical. I'm told that physical is the best option but I want to know what YOU guys want!)
NSR Halloween DLC ideas, just in time for Spooky Night!
The soundtrack for the Halloween DLC would feature instruments associated with the holiday being incorporated into the songs, such as pipe organ and theremin.
The Bosses
DJ Subatomic Supernova
DJSS is a scarecrow, wearing a straw hat, flannel shirt, and denim overalls (cut-off, of course!).
For the battlefield, the background of the Planetarium is a deep orange. The planets he uses to attack are replaced with pumpkins, and the asteroids are replaced by a swarm of crows.
Sayu
Sayu is a cute ghost girl. (I felt it would be fitting since she’s a floaty character.) She's slightly translucent and sports a ghostly wisp-like tail rather than her regular mermaid tail. Her colour palette features off-whites and faded pastels, making her look more etherial.
Sayu wears a tattered white Victorian/Lolita-style dress, lacy cuffs around her wrists and a little bow on her head.
For Phase 2, her dress becomes poofier and more elaborate as small ribbons resembling tentacles appear around her waist. Her trident is completely white.
Phase 3 has her go full-on ghost bride. Her dress has a huge multi-tiered skirt, her hair is adorned with a long veil, and her tentacle ribbons have grown to full length. Her deep-sea mode has her face turn glowing green with solid black eyes, making her resemble a spookfish, while her “tentacles” feature flickering lights similar to a bioluminescent jellyfish.
Her final form is basically your stereotypical bedsheet ghost shape with her legs sticking out the bottom.
Sayu’s team are dressed in dark wizard-like robes, and each of them are wearing masks like the ones worn by Lock, Shock, and Barrel from The Nightmare Before Christmas.
For the battlefield, the “landscape” is dotted with jack-o-lanterns, tombstones, and dead trees. The background is changed to a seafoam green color, with wispy little ghosts flying about.
Yinu and Mother
Yinu is dressed as a cute little witch. Her hair is in pigtails similar to her Christmas skin, and her witch hat is adorned with fall leaves and little jack-o-lanterns.
Mother, meanwhile, is a spooky Halloween tree with spiders. Her dress is a dark wood colour with translucent, ragged-edged sleeves, and she wears a thorny hairband and spiderweb earrings.
The ends of her “hair” have been dyed the same colour as her dress, and she wears both black lipstick and black nail polish.
When she grows bigger, her branches begin to sprout large thorns, which end up making her cage form look more like a spiderweb. (There are even little fake spiders sitting on top of it!)
For the battlefield, the stage is decorated to evoke a bountiful harvest, with pumpkins, hay bales, bundles of wheat, stalks of corn, apple trees, cornucopias, and garlands of leaves.
Both the gate and the giant piano hammers are adorned with thorny branches and autumn leaves.
1010
1010 are pirate ghosts. (As a fun gag, Blue could wear two eyepatches instead of his sunglasses!)
Meanwhile, Neon J is their ghostly captain, complete with a captain’s hat, a sword at his belt, a fake parrot on his shoulder, and – once again – a fake beard attached to his screen head.
For the battlefield, the flying limousine is decked out to look like a pirate ship, with a mast, a crow’s nest, and a tattered sail.
(I felt 1010 as pirates would be fitting since they're a navy-themed boyband and Neon J was a captain in the navy.)
Eve
Eve is dressed as Medusa.
Her dark green dress has a scaly pattern, and she accessories with a lot of gold, including spiralling gold sandals and a golden diadem crown.
Her hair has been dyed, shaped, and styled to look like several little writhing serpents.
Her backpiece is composed of even more snakes in gold and teal which wrap around her upper torso and spread out behind her like a peacock’s tail.
Eve’s pupils even become snake-like starting at Phase 2!
For the battlefield, Eve’s gallery has been transformed into an Ancient Greek temple, but with a postmodern/vapourwave twist. Stylized Greco-Roman columns with snakes wrapped around them line the walls, and an ancient looking gold chandelier hangs from the ceiling. The left side would be eggplant purple while the right side would be cerulean blue.
If the player gets hit by the eye lasers from Eve’s giant statue, they’ll actually turn to stone and be frozen in place for a short time.
For Phase 2, on Mayday’s side, the snakes wrapped around the columns have grown larger and are now looming over Mayday, their faces twisted into angry snarls (representing Eve’s derisiveness and hostility towards May).
Meanwhile, Zuke’s side features floating fragments of ruined columns (representing how lost and incomplete Eve felt after Zuke left her).
Phase 3 is where it really starts to get trippy. Both rooms feature ruined columns and floating shards, along with giant brightly colored snakes slithering all over the background.
The shards in Zuke’s side reflect images of faces screaming in anguish, while the shards on Mayday’s side have limbs protruding from them- one shard has three legs protruding from them in reference to a trinacia. (Look up what a trinacia is to understand the reference!)
Tatiana
Tatiana is a vampire.
She wears black and red robes with bat wing-edged sleeves and a wide collar. Her earrings are coffin shaped, and she has small, pointed fangs that can be seen when she opens her mouth.
At the beginning of her battle, she starts throwing flaming bats.
For the battlefield, Tatiana's office/battle arena is made to feel like a vampire’s castle tower.
The whole room is lit with a deep red glow, and the tall windows that feature the NSR murals are topped with pointed arches, giving them a Gothic look.
You can even see some glass bottles filled with (ahem) red liquid on Tatiana’s desk.
Meanwhile, the Goolings' stage outside is decorated with jack-o-lanterns and hanging skeletons.
DK West
DK West is dressed as Frankenstein FrankenWest!
His look consists of neck bolts, stitch markings, and a dark ragged recolour of his original outfit.
His bull shadow puppet has matching neck bolts, which even emit shadowy electricity when it appears during the battle.
Bunk Bed Junction
Mayday
Mayday is dressed as an imp, wearing a bright red dress with black sleeves and waistcoat, black wings, red horns, and a red tail.
Her guitar is deep purple and splattered with glowing orange paint. It emits a wolf howl when she powers it up for the Showstopper.
Zuke
Zuke is a werewolf. Ragged clothes with fake fur poking out, extra fur attached to his forearms (don’t ask how got it on there), pointed ears, a bushy tail, pointed fangs, his nose has been painted. Pretty simple.
His drumsticks are splattered with glowing green paint and tipped with tiny light-up pumpkins.
The Other NPCs
Ellie has little bat wings attached to her back and wears a springy bat antenna headband.
And last but not least,
Kliff . . . is just wearing a pair of Groucho Marx glasses. Yup. That's it.
Let me know what you all think. I’d love to hear some feedback. Thanks for reading! Happy Halloween!
