Staring a daily art challenge I’ll hopefully finish. I’ll be drawing a Puyo character every day leading up to the 30th anniversary! Starting with our main duo.
As requested by @puyohero! As of this posting I’ve yet to dive into these great games, but I hope I did this fun comic justice. Enjoy the rest under the cut!

It was a typical sunny day in the park in the middle of Primp.
“Take that! Here I go, Ringo!” Arle called.
Out here were me, Arle, Carbuncle, and Ringo. So our usual team.
“All right! Passing to Amitie next!” Ringo said.
We were using a green Puyo as a ball.
“W-wah…! There! Okay, Arle, here it comes!”
Today’s game is called, “How long can we keep a Puyo from touching the ground without catching it and only using our wrists and fingers to pass?”
“Ack! I can’t reach it! Carby, please!”
“Gu-guu~!”
It may seem simple to keep a Puyo from touching the ground, but you’d be surprised! It can really take your full attention!
We kept the rally going for a while, until…
“Amitie! Over there!”
“Wah wah wah… EEK—!
In the end, the game came to a close with me stumbling and falling over.
“You okay, Amitie?!”
“Are you hurt?!”
Arle and Ringo rushed over to me, worried, but I got up with a smile. As a klutz who’s always blundering left and right, I’m already used to falling on my face. A little trip like this is no biggie at all!
But I kinda started feeling like I wanted to do “that thing”…?
As the other two helped me up, I chirped, “Hey, hey! Let’s do that thingnext!”
Arle and Ringo already knew what I meant.
“Oh, yeah, that thing! Alright, let’s go for it, Carby!”
“Guguguu!”
Arle and Carbuncle nodded at each other.
“Hehehe, that thing it is! Hope you guys are ready to lose!” Ringo happily agreed, winking at us.
“Yay! Then let’s start!” I threw a finger into the air. “Now! Let’s have a love-filled Puyo battle!”
…Huh?
Arle and Ringo froze in their tracks.
“Love?” They both tilted their heads to the side in confusion.
What? Did I just say, “love”?
“Uhm… Ahahahaha! Right, love! I think her way of talking just kinda rubbed off on me…” I blushed, scratching the back of my head with my hand.
“Oh… Love, huh?”
“Yes, love!”
So, where exactly did I pick that up from? For some reason, Arle and Ringo didn’t even feel the need to ask me about that.
Instead…
“All right! C’mon!”
“Let’s…?”
“Have a love-filled Puyo battle!!”
“Guguguuugu!
Raising our voices all together at once, the three of us began our Puyo match! And Carbuncle bounced around by our side, a super happy smile on its face.
