Just logged into pixiv to check-- ZOMGGGG people really like the Higurashi picture... only 30 points, but 119 views in less than two weeks. Keep in mind I only had 1 watcher when I posted that picture.So far, after two months and a week or so, and being submitted to a group, that same picture has 198 views^^. I'm not too fussed, it's just that I'm amazed by how differently fanart (by an unknown n00bie gaijin) gets treated on a strictly Japanese site compared to a full English speaking person who has watchers on deviantart.
dA version (much less views but many, many more favs):
