That’s correct. The Hues will turn 15 years old on August 27th.
It’s changed pretty dramatically more than a few times since its inception. In the very beginning, it was essentially a Sailor Moon fanfic, then for awhile it was a pretty conventional magical girl series, and now it’s a love letter to the genre. I’ve described this iteration of The Hues as a collaboration with my 12-year-old self, which is pretty accurate.
Garanos presented itself in my head during a time when I had convinced myself that The Hues would never get made, so that’s why I made it first. TH had been my baby for a decade at that point and I had really kind of lost objectivity about it. It just wasn’t ready back then, and I wasn’t ready to change things up in order to make it something more special.
