Umeko: That's it, Hoji-san, you've got the peace sign down! Now, all you need to say is, "Houji-chan! A good boy, a strong boy, a happy boy!"
Hoji: WTF can I shoot you?

This is a slightly delayed birthday gift for ~VerusMayaII, featuring Kodou Koume/Umeko/Dekapink and Tomasu Houji/Hoji/Dekablue from Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger (which is, without a doubt, one of the best sentai series ever).

In case you don't understand it, Umeko has a pose to match her catchphrase. Using a peace sign with her fingers, her motto is "Koume-chan! A good girl, a strong girl, a happy girl!"

Hoji's Dekaranger number is 2, and in his countdown, he peace-signs his number before saying, "2! Solving mysterious cases!"

I don't ship Umeko x Hoji (I'm more of a Sen-chan x Umeko person) but you have to admit, their slightly rivaling positions over who gets to be leader is actually fun to watch.

Much as I love the Deka uniforms (I really want a Deka jacket!!), they were a pain in the butt to color. I swear, I probably won't CG full-body Dekaranger again because of how intricate the costumes are.

Umeko and Hoji (characters, outfits) are (c) to Toei.
