Re: [1594] a side of you I haven't seen before

Some notes on the panels: 2,4,8: Largo is intently looking at something to the lower left, off panel. In 4, he's obviously bent over, like he's about to touch something. Like, I dunno... tails? 6: A prayer for the doomed. Heh. 8: Obviously, Erika thinks Piro had a really good night and isn't as squa...

Yeah I'm getting a good vibe too. Hoping to see more of him in the next chapter(s).
Please, no. February 18th, 2018: Last appearance of Kimko and Piro. TWO YEARS, FOUR MONTHS, AND COUNTING.

Re: [1578] someplace safe

So.... how long has it been since we've seen Piro x Kimiko now? Ah, wait, we haven't checked in on the former Zom-zom, now Zom-ko. Then there's Boss-san, Dom, Ed, the NPCs, the Sight team, and the Asako options. I figure we've got another two years or so before we get back to the lovebirds. Oh, and ...

Re: [1558] Getting through

Again, that's Miho giving him explicit directions. Not sure how magical that one is, given "Nobody ever sees it, because nobody looks." If anything, it looks like an emergency exit that would only open out. If he could step between on his own, he'd have avoided the cops.

I've been going through old strips, and cam across https://megatokyo.com/strip/278 (snip) Piro might be in a lot of trouble if he was in Largo's place. Dunno, Piro's kind of blind about some things.

Oh, and something else that strikes me as odd. Largo says, "I am filtering my perceptions."

No. I got hung up over the fact that if she's able to move and talk in the physical world then she's by definition at least temporarily not in a coma. Which she stated she was.

Or Largo will use the phone to >PWN< her life support.

For all the bitching I did, at least Fred knocked it out of the park. I don't know what the hell's going on at this point. Or is that a bad thing? :ph34r:

His approach is extremely clinical and almost sterile and I think that Ashe snapping her phone in half was about the most restrained response that she could have given him
I was kind of wondering if she was going to snap him in half. "Oops" indeed.

I can't help but wonder if the whole "hostage scenario" is really a head-fake by granny ninjagirl to help break Miho out of her "avatar" status by making her a player (protagonist) instead of the game being played. i.e. by taking an active role again, she writes her own story.

Re: [1528] An old story that needs to be finished

One might imagine the real thing is no role. Whatever anyone thinks about Miho appears to be all about their opinions and perceptions, but she's clearly been often able to match those expectations, be that purpose or accident, towards a goal or otherwise. So it's probably not so odd to believe that...
