hmmm this chapter seems so..so different from the rest of the series.it seems like it’s just like an intros and focusses on showing tehc hara instead of as well keeping with the storie.
the it is neet and the art is exelent.And I love what you did on the final page and went back to drawing it likwe it was in late 06
Taeshi’s Commentary On This Page
I guess I wanted to leave the end all white because the next million chapters or so are gonna be in that format, since you’ll be delving into the wasteland of 2006! Hope you enjoy your flight.
But yeah, that’s it. I should learn not to blabber on too much, but you’ll see plenty of it in the old commentary, written at the time the chapters were published. I’ve grown wiser and more succinct over the years..
yeah.

This chapter is amazing. I like it a lot and the way you were able to introduce all the main characters in such a limited amount of pages was great. Especially since the personalities were amazingly defined. I liked the fact that you made the art move back into the shadeless and box like style of the beginning. I don’t even remember how I stumbled upon this comic, but I’ve loved it for years.
Keep it up!

I honestly did not feel that much life into the older comics. Then again, its the beginning of a great bittersweet bowl ‘o life and any new comic tends too be bland in the beginning. But with age comes experience like all of us going through life.
With that in mind if you remember waaaay back in Elementary, Grammar, whatever you called it, School you can somewhat remember how bland our day too day life was.
I feel it wasn’t until middle school that our life became interesting.
Just my two cents.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
You know… Going back and reading this after having read the rest of the series… It almost feels like this happens AFTER everything… Sort of like what Phillip was saying…
There’s definitely elements that point to that not being true, like Paulo still being the way he is, and Mike still being that protective… But it always confused me as to why she got on the skateboard when I first read it, as she clearly dislikes Paulo from here on out… But it sort of makes sense if it occurs sometime after “Back And Forth”…
I don’t know… Maybe I’m just babbling ^^;

If you took out the character development from the current comic, this could be like…the end.
