Re: So... 2022

Just checking in. We're about 5 years since the last update on the VN page... Which is also the same time the last update was delivered to Kickstarter. While I'm not over here holding my breath, something would be nice. At least the comic updates are more often recently. As I said: Take the money a...

Re: [1598] IT DID NOT GO WELL

In terms of story, for everybody *except Megumi and Largo* the nine-tail thing doesn't matter very much. The fact that Megumi had a really bad night last night is much more important to Kimiko and Piro's story, for instance. Megumi is their friend and they care a lot about their friends. Largo is c...

Re: [1598] IT DID NOT GO WELL

On another note, Megumi's tale is kinda first time I recall someone in the comic, recall and retell their proceedings exactly as it happened without hiding or glossing over or forgetting anything. I'm more surprised that everyone apart from Largo is either ignoring or making jokes about the nine ta...

Re: [1598] IT DID NOT GO WELL

"But I didn't see him leave ... " One line, endless unjustified speculation. 1) He never existed, he was something Megumi conjured out of thin air and then conjured him away. 2) He was no longer important in Megumi's story, or the story of any other character, so he wasn't tracked (probably the mos...

Largo of all people mocking Piro at length for sexual dysfunction in front of Kimiko This inference is incorrect. Largo is not mocking Piro. In fact, he's simply describing the problems with the "reference material" as "matter-of-factly" as one might describe a game guide that has bad tips. Well, t...

Re: [1596] reference material

Well, that was something. Hugely embarrassing for Piro, of course. But I love how comfortable Largo and Erika are with each other. Grandma's reaction leaves an important question still up in the air. Is that "oh dear she's a 9-tail", or "oh dear the secret is out". Leaving it like that is, of cours...

In fact, I just realized how to do it too: set her up with a minder who is about her age, single, scores high in empathy, and is unquestioningly loyal to the TPCD. Bonus if he competes at a high amateur level in at least one martial art, but if he's TPCD, he has to be proficient in them, and I'm su...

And as far as that last panel is concerned, truer words were never spoken...I think it's just possible that Miho may have some competition in the 'most pursued' category, depending on how dangerous, powerful, and/or uncontrollable a nine-tail is believed to be. Also, how the heck did she tie that r...

Re: Higher res old pages?

The first one noticing cosplay and manga shops everywhere, the other seeing potential dangers, zombie spawning points and makeshift fearbots. Where there other similar pages for other characters? Sounds like NNM: reality...

Either way, it sucks to be her : ( (I wonder if there is someone who loves her, but who she...
