If you can't tell, I am beginning what will hopefully be a regular thing, coloring the first page of each chapter. My coloring isn't great, and it takes forever. Since my chapters are 8 to 10 pages long, I think I can manage making coloring each first page (making it one colored page every week and a half or so) and still keep up my daily updates. (If the colors actually are detracting from it, I won't do them. Just let me know.)
I want to apologize for the lack of cute characters running around the title. The original image had them, but just yesterday, I had the strongest desire to change the title of this chapter... My old way of naming was a bit boring ("Seiko's ____" "Kaida _____"), but my titles have taken a brilliant turn of being clever phrases with all kinds of deep meaning (which becomes more apparent throughout the chapter). Here is the original title, BTW:
Now, I need to give you all fair warning. The next few chapters (starting on tomorrow's page!) are rather plot heavy. If you haven't at least skimmed the archives to understand a little about how these characters know each other, you could get lost or maybe just not enjoy this stuff as much as you should/can.
Thanks. I'm glad you like the color. I was never too confident because I do a sort of wild sketching rather than clean lineart, but a semi-transparent color layer doesn't look too bad. And it's good for title pages, setting the scene and all.
Yeah, Jiro is always cute. That's his main function (aside from the fact that bookstores are just better with cats).
first panel of the kitty on its' back is sooo cute :3 I'm new to this comic, so i'll probably have to read through the archives so I don't confuse myself xD thanks for the reminder ^.~
