The fifth season of Nigel's Art-cade that ran during 2024 marks an epic milestone in the series with a record breaking 57 characters (50 new, 7 returning) drawn. This season ran during my 6 month break from education, between finishing secondary school and starting university.

This season saw the return of five characters who have been absent since season 2: Pete, Mickey Mouse, Goofy, Pekeroné and Beavis and marks the last appearances of Mickey Mouse and Marco Onda from Marco and the Galaxy Dragon, as she takes a well deserved break after appearing four seasons in a row. Notably, season 5 also features the first two fictional characters from my country, Malaysia!

With me starting university, Nigel's Art-cade is currently on hiatus. Season 6 will happen, but likely not in a year or two, so until then, thanks for sticking by! Nigel's Art-cade will return again one day.
