Re: [1590] beautiful
I love how everyone's brain turns off in the last two panels while Kimiko looks absolutely delighted. This reveal must have been a secret to just about everybody who should have known. I can't wait to see the reactions of the other members of the fox-clan to this development, if only to know who mig...

Re: [1586] Chapter 13 - Redemption
So this is literally a redemption arc - but who is going to be redeemed? There's a lot of characters looking for redemption.

Re: [1585] rest and recovery
For some reason, I imagine Largo waking up with a smile on his face like Arnie in the movie "Twins". It looks like the whole gang is going to be together for the start of Chapter 13. Correct me if I'm wrong with this list of everyone's locations: -Hotel: Largo/Erika, Piro/Kimiko, 9-Tails, Ping/Junko...

Re: [1583] the heartbreak of other people's luck
Poor Megumi, I feel bad about her luck with love, but I don't know if that angst means she is going to destructive bender. I do get the feel we're going to see a lot of plot advancement chapter. I have some doubts whether Megumi is 9 tails. That little bit of visible tail that pokes out from the tai...

Re: [1584] Naze Nani Megatokyo: 20 Years Later...
Wow, has it really been 20 years already? I have a lot less hair now and can definitely empathize with the fatter part. My oldest was 2 years old when I started reading this comic, and now he's in second year university. I'm still comforted by coming back to read this every couple of weeks. Keep it ...

Re: [1564] Important
Oh, the feelz... To me, this is the interaction that cements the relationship. I don't think it will take much for Largo to be on board with the rest of Erika's quest. By this point they both know he'd go balls to the wall for her. Go forth and conquer, dynamic duo! From a layout standpoint, I like ...

Re: An Update on Things
I was wondering why there hadn't been any updates so I thought I'd look in here. I'm really sorry to hear about Sarah's dad. My own father-in-law passed away on Oct 20th so I can empathize somewhat with how he and his family is feeling. Most of the tears are gone, but the hole is still there. I hope...

Re: [1562] The only thing I'm ever able to do
Not sure if Moeko is really gone, could be similar to Obi-wan Kenobi. I think I'll just hold on and wait for more context next comic. Largo's expression is interesting, like he's waiting for the other shoe to drop. Just a couple of strips earlier he was warning about "deep immersion into play can le...

Re: [1561] Little girl stuff
Got me in the feels. How many years of regret and longing go into that last panel. Erika needs to give her a big hug. Erika should translate what Moeko just said to Largo. He seems to always have the right insightful comment hidden behind his manic personality.

Re: [1555] Go see her
I have my own theories about Megatokyo, the main one being that the world itself is a virtual construct and Piro and Largo are still at E3 (from the first couple of strips) playing the game. They've been playing this long because they're stuck due to a glitch in the system (kind of like the Aincrad ...

Uh oh, Yaku just called called out for the Ninja in love with her mom. That could bring Junpei, but I get the feeling a magical girl just might make her appearance, since love's like rocket fuel for them. Magical girls are probably the only one who can go toe-to-toe with analogues like Miho. The Nin...

Re: [1532] The battlefield before me
So are we sure that was Miho who leveled the ninjas? I don't recall seeing a flower in her hair. And one of the ninjas in panel 7 seems to have scrawled an 'S' on the ground. Perhaps this was someone else? If it is Miho, then it looks like she's found her inner m0h, and is looking to take over the s...

it seems that Ping seems to have compartmentalized sex and love as two separate objects in her coding. Perhaps Junko is rubbing off on her more than we thought.

Re: [1510] I guess I'll have to stop...
I'm not sure how to take that last strip. Fred did a great job of adding subtle, emotional undercurrents that I can feel as I read, but can't describe. The past couple of interactions could be interpreted a couple of different ways - awkward, wistful, want-yet-not-want. But right now I feel both Kim...

Re: [1509] - "the floor is lava"
Regardless of long-term emotions, there are 20-something hormones to consider. They should be running like freight train about now, and in particular running over anything like logical thought. <snip> Like I said, I really doubt if Fred is taking the story this way, but Piro is acting like an asexu...

So from the dialogue, I guess we are to assume that Junko is still doing the Enjo Kosai thing? Though this contact looks to be someone that she may have feelings for (or usually wants to do something that embarasses her). Since Ping can change her appearance based on the user, I wonder what happens ...

And I honestly don't think Yaku has a dog in the PxK/PxM shipfight... she's got her own worries. What I'm thinking is - she's not worrying about any of Piro, Miho, or Kimiko. What she want's to ask Junpei is if he has honourable intentions regarding dating her mom. She's probably seen several boyfr...

So in MT, the Magical Girl anime shows are based on actual Magical Girls, albeit glamourized and modified to fit into existing tropes? Wow, I'm imaging MT reality folding in on itself trying to wrap my brain around this revelation.
