[I couldn't find any decent references for him (shocker) so I went on Veoh.com and paused each episode and drew from the screen. =_= except the side image with Kumagoro and the [Blind Game Again] lyrics. As soon as I felt comfortable drawing him without a ref, I doodled him with ink and tried to keep as close to Murakami's style as possible ^^ and since Ryuichi's defining characteristic is his personality, this was actually a challenge =^_^=]
