Artist's commentary
[Super! Sonic! Flower Power!] Sakura Bakushin O
"FLOUR! BUTTER! FLOUR! BUTTER! CREAM! AND CREAM!"
Recipes are naught but dead weight. Low temperatures are for slow bakers—not for her. All she knows is speed. Blinding, Bakushin speed.
"Whoa?! I accidentally got cream all over my face! ...Mmm! It's so delicious!"
"And now, for the final garnish—sakura! SAKURA! SAKURAAA!"
The flowers spring forth in intense bloom, the petals speeding toward the sky in a mad dance. In but a blink, the kitchen is sakura pink.
"There! All done! One Bakushin batch of sweets!"
With a proud puff of her chest, she hands the tray to me, and I can't help but crack a smile myself.
There's cream all over her hands, and sakura petals all over her clothes, but I think... that in and of itself is kinda sweet.
"HAAAHAHAHA! That look on your face—it's plain as day! You're over the moon for these sweets!"
