More Tachibana Himeko art
Quite luckily for those of us who adore such wonderful art, the many artists that populate Pixiv haven’t relinquished yet in creating works featuring the “K-ON!!” side character Tachibana Himeko.
Although Himeko seems to be the most illustrated background character so far, other side characters like Fuuko, Eri and Akane also feature in plenty of fan art.
Stunning artwork by Cait (Pixiv) with a terrific atmosphere due to the well executed, typical lighting of the evening’s setting sun. Such an image portraying Himeko putting on her loose socks like that can not be anything but incredibly cute!

Another nice illustration by faith (Pixiv) who already shared several such images featuring Himeko with a definite yuri overtone.
Must say that yuri imagery such as this I do adore, with Himeko innocently asleep and slumping against her neighbor who can’t help but blush beet red. No doubt inspired by the Kyoto school trip episode.
This image from ぽりんキー (Pixiv) looks based on a scene from the series but substituted Tsumugi with Himeko.
Seated next to Yui in class, it was all but inevitable that some would rather portray Himeko paired to Yui. Fully expect that pairing to appear in some doujinshi towards the next Comiket.
Displaying a very bright, moe character style, like this image by ‘真琉樹@映画よかった!’ (Pixiv) that features a happy, smiling couple.
Nice group image from 狛猫 (Pixiv) whose work was also showcased in the previous post about the “K-ON!!” girls.
This time Himeko and her friend are joined by their classmates Eri and another girl who’s tentatively called ‘the girl sitting behind Tsumugi’.
Couldn’t omit this image by 藍夜 (Pixiv) featuring Himeko in the typical style used for the “K-ON!” season one character image single cover art illustrations.
Hope to see more nice images like these pop up on Pixiv featuring Himeko and her classmates.









Nice! I want her XD
Wow, the first one is so sexy
New char?
Did I missed something?!
@GREW She’s also known as the “girl sitting next to Yui” She’s a side character but fans seem to have taken a liking to her
I can’t wait for some doujinshi featuring her and even giving her some background story
Wow some artist really went for it! XD
i wonder if she will make more appearance in the anime.
@AnimeAffection
Don’t we all? ^_~
@Sergio
That first one has a great atmosphere has it not? Adore how it all is combined to create such a terrific image.
@GREW
Pretty much as Sergio said, this season Kyoto Animation has take care in rendering the classmates consistently and as background characters some like Himeko have become popular. Do appreciate that the girls are also interacting with their other classmates.
@Fabrice
Wonder that too. So far several girls have had brief moments, some like Himeko even with spoken lines.
I love that second image too! The girl next to her is trying to play it cool, but still can’t stop her body’s natural reactions (blushing). ^ ^
Anyways, I can see her as the most popular of the background characters; she stands out the most.
