Taeshi’s Commentary On This Page

ONEGAI KUDASAI PAUROKUN ;____;

I’ve always kind of liked the timing of this page, even though for some reason it feels relatively empty. Maybe it’s because it’s so empty and there’s lots of small panels.

On second thought I guess I shaded with a very light green so there isn’t really any white spots at all, this pleases me.

Oh Paulo you jerk! HEY EVERYBODY! LET’S HATE PAULO NOW!

He really is in a lose-lose situation, though, ‘cuz if he takes advantage, he’s a jerkmonster, and if he rejects her totally, he’s a monsterjerk.
And Paulo, as I recall, is not one to walk the subtle tightrope of emotional balance :P

It actually feels as though Paulo’s turning sort of into Mike… he seems like he’s getting a little tired of Lucy running to him for help.

What? Paulo loves to help Lucy, everything to get her attention!
Remember, he has kinda a crush on her (well, just because she is pretty and he is hungry of vaginas)
I think that the only one that noticed only now is Lucy. Her world woke to the real world.
And I’m not recognizing her. She is now so scary!

love the 13th panel~
…Where did the cup go in panel 14 though?
Also love the fact that they’re still kids but he gets her a tea or coffee or whatever is in the cup XP

Aww, Paulo is so cute I have such a soft spot for him! He may seem like a prev but I know he won’t take advantage of Lucy. He is not that kind of person when it comes to things like that!!!!

Oh and by the way AWESOME job on the comic! I wanted to comment on so many pages but it would have been a pain for you to go through all of them XD

Starberry: I wouldn’t have found it a pain at all, actually! I’ve had people who would go back on really old drawings and comment on them back at DeviantArt, and I absolutely love when that happens. It really is an honour.. so seriously, if you have things to say please don’t be shy! It’s not like it’s spamming, the comments would be different based on the pages published and I’d love to know more about the reader’s opinion~!

this is obviously me saying HELL YEAH COMMENTS. *Hit*

Tashie it seems every one is wanting to know where the cup went in the last panel and great job on the shadowing on lcuy in the third panel.

She obviously dropped it as she pounced on him so it’s on the floor, rolled and spilled. Duh.

i’m surprised your comic isn’t in the top 10 list on some of those webcomic list sites yet, and in my opinion, if this was paulo the way he was before tessa, he probably would’ve been all ‘sexy time, very nice’ only thinking it in his head not to ruin the moment and get a beating from lucy

@Loyal Reader: To hell with “one of the top ten”, this should BE the top ten. This one page should count for all ten of the top ten!
