Another of Shirow’s classic pairing of beauty and the beast.⁠ The imagination behind his monsters is always intriguing.

A rather long-limbed Shirow cutie, with some fascinating architecture in the background.⁠

Another powerful and winsome Shirow heroine.

A beautiful study in ferocity, both the creature and the girl.⁠ ⁠

⁠ A stirring image with portentous iconography – not so much religious as inspirational.⁠ ⁠
