Lucy, because she makes people dislike the MikeSandy pairing. MikeLucy sucks simply because it prevents a MikeSandy.

Nah MikexSandy sucks cause it prevents LucyxSandy.

… same reason why MikexLucy sucks.

Aye ! Also it looks like Tenchi solution #2. Pick someone outside the harem. :D

Sandy. Until she makes an actual, face to face with the cast appearance, she’s a disruptive influence in several characters developments.

In an odd contradiction, Paulo is simultaneously my most like and most frustrating character choice. I’m rooting for him constantly, but his decisions still bug me.

@Jay The First

Post on your thread mate! I need to know I’m gonna keep editing the other stuff. I’m already in cha4!

@Taeshi

Sorry for de-railing mate. That was a bit important

Abuh?! I wonder if you have the wrong Jay. I was the first one to come to the forums under the original name Jay. Then another Jay came along, butchering spelling, grammar and punctuation. I was forced to change my name in order to avoid any confusion. I think you’re looking for the other Jay.

I also apologize to Taeshi. Forgive me for spreading my particular disgust at the invading Jay.

Even though Lucy is one of my favorite characters, I also find her to be one of the most frustrating. I also find Paulo irritating at times.

Paulo is a freaking pussy now!

What’s his face, Final Fantasy Cat. Yeah, that guy. He’s a good antagonist, but I guess that’s what makes ya wanna sock his face.

He’s not too bad, we only see a bit of him.

@Pronkat

Paulo’s not a pussy (at least not in the figurative sense). He’s growing up. He’s slowly giving up on old behaviors that no longer compliment his current life and interests.

So far, I feel he’s had the best character development over all.

Jay The First May 1, 2010, 9:01 PM EST.

No, he’s experiencing what a real date is like and thus learning that he’s not the hot stuff he thinks himself to be. But instead of being dignified about it, he’s doing the opposite…

Pronkat May 1, 2010, 9:03 PM EST.

You’re only looking at the most recent event Pronkat. Consider how much he has changed since he entered high school. He doesn’t just chase after girls anymore, at least not with as much enthusiasm or seriousness as he used to. And there have been plenty of chances for him to make moves on several characters, major and minor, that he has passed up. He and David (who HASN’T changed) are beginning to distance as a result. And he has developed a clear attraction to one particular individual

He’s even observed the changes himself. And in one horrible backpeddeling moment decided to start chasing after girls again, in an attempt to resist those changes.

And this isn’t finding out what a REAL date is. This is finding out what it’s like to be used to hurt someone else. There is nothing real about this scenario.

For a guy who said he doesn’t do drama, he sure has a lot of rebounding in his life.

@Jay The First

Yes the guilt is real. And some bad yet real dates are based upon the factor you just described

To clarify, I don’t hate lily or even dislike her, her character just frustrates me.

@ Ved of Flames

Yeah but, Paulo was only saying that to cheer up Lucy.

@ Pronkat

I’d have to say it isn’t a date if both parties aren’t in agreement on that point. Paulo may think it’s a date. But his “date” sure doesn’t.

Also, I don’t believe the “guilt” part has even come into play yet. Paulo’s nervous because he’s not used to having a female pushing him around outside of Tess. The guilt part will come later, when Tess finds out.

This is all speculation of course.

@ BBQ-Flavored Jerk

OY now!!! Let’s not get carried away. I’d settle for “leashed” until he settles down.

Oh boy… my least favorite character… I, um, can’t decide… They’re all awesome! I can’t… CHOOSE! *head explodes*
aw, crap, not again…
I’ll be back later to decide

*The Ninja can’t think up a good cover story for visiting BCB this time, so he just puts it down on his Ninja-schedule as “Pirate Hunting” and threatens to violently murder anyone who tells his Ninja-supervisor.*

People seem to hate/dislike Abbey a lot. My question is, if Abbey went Postal (Though preferably with a flamethrower), would people like his character more or hate him for being a crazy “emo” with “Incredible Hulk”-impersonation issues? To put it in a less silly way, if Abbey wasn’t so afraid of his own temper, would he be a better character?

Also, Can we be frustrated with a character because he/she doesn’t get enough face time?

I’m frustrated with… Michael. Yes, Michael. The others might be annoying, but always in a fun way.

Though, I think Paulo was annoying at first. Until he met Tess, that is. I think he’s been a jerk for the last four or so pages, but he looks so in deep water that I almost have to forgive him. ^_^

ILB May 2, 2010, 10:54 PM EST.

Comment ID #13521

ILB! I was wondering if you’d post in this one. Glad to see you here.

Paulo is being foolish right now. But he’ll come around, I’m sure of it. And if not, Lucy will bring him around.

Jay The First May 2, 2010, 11:45 PM EST.

Poor Paulo doesn’t get a breeze. ^_^u Ok, he certainly has been a total jerk with an empathy coefficient similar to a poisonous mushroom. But well… he has been gotten better, and I feel a bit identified with him in this last chapter… The teenage mind can do really weird things when it gets hurt in its pride (or at least mine did… a lot ^^u).

@Pronkat/@BBQ: Though… I find interesting the possible hypocritical bravado. In truth, until the summer arc I also thought all of his “stories” were just that… But in the last episodes he was giving me other impression (and in this last chapter… unless he is REALLY good at lying to himself, it really seems he has truly scored in the past).

Anyway, the thing that it’s clear is that he isn’t used to being treated with such harshness in a “date”… But I totally agree with earlier posts: he should have seen it coming as Jessica was totally sincere with her reasons to go with him.

And I went totally out of topic here in a surge of fanboyism… Er… Shoo Error you infuriating raven look-a-like harbinger of internet problems! Fixed.

Comment ID #14441

Oh, hey, Jay. ^_^

@x_uve: I agree, though I also think that Paulo finds himself on the deep end of the pool because he does have feelings for Lucy. And Tess, possibly, but (presently) that is what bugs me about him - he seems to have forgotten all about her. He is in a very strained situation, being pulled to all sides by everyone (nearly, at least), and clearly the Lucy situation must be fresh on his mind, but I am slightly annoyed by the fact that Tessa came in second.

But as I said, I’m not frustrated with Paulo. Just mildly annoyed.

I’m so disappointed in the PauloxLucy theme lately. I miss Tess and PauloxTess and, at the very least, PauloxTess flirting. :(

Teriyaki-Flavored Jerk May 3, 2010, 10:38 PM EST.

Comment ID #14493

Oh, I think sowt good is going to happen. Isn’t Tess 18?

Pronkat May 3, 2010, 10:47 PM EST.

Comment ID #14498

In truth I agree with you both on that… With all the Lucy drama and Paulo being so inside it, it’s been some time since the last time we have anything TessxPaulo.

Anyway, that’s prone to return sooner or later. Let’s enjoy tormented Paulo meanwhile.

x_uve May 3, 2010, 10:49 PM EST.

I think the climax to his torment is coming…

Comment ID #14808

Actually, part of the reason I probably like this comic so much is that it reminds me of high school. Most people would think I’d be one of the people who had the crush… but no, I was Mike. Yeah… that guy who has a crush on someone and ignores people around him in favor of them. The annoying part is, I’m glad I did, but reading the comic makes me feel REALLY bad because I see a lot more of the female end of things… which is really, really depressing and sad. He kind of frustrates me as, while he is much meaner than I was, he is still insufferable.

Of course, I also enjoy that he is there, even if he frustrates me so much, watching him not even notice he is hurting people.

Comment ID #115126

Well, the one that frustrates me more is David. Yeah.
He’s not my least favorite character, though.

After David almost killed Mike and acted nonchalant in regards that, he touched Lucy’s chest while she was fainted. And when Paulo tries to do the right thing for a change, he’s there to send him in the wrong path again.

He friggin’ annoys me!
