Description During this spring and summer, I'm putting together a bunch of short mangas to introduce my own characters and stories and the like. For story one , I posted each page separately. For story two , I posted a deviation per double-page. This is page 1 through 6 of story three; which viewing method do you prefer? I'm curious, because I sometimes find it annoying to go through a story page by page waiting for something to load, but when the image is large, it takes long, too...

Also, um, for this story, it's more of an introduction to a concept I've been working with. I'm a little scared with how this one comes across because there's a lot of characters, as well as "Junctioners" etc.

The three characters present here usually go by codenames with each other. "Phoenix" is the one I mentioned as similar to Soliet from story two. "Hydra" gets mistaken for a girl so much he lets people think he is one. "Griffin" has a grudge against the mentioned "Chimera", who will show up in story four. ^_^ Ryan, from story one... doesn't know what'll hit him.

As for what is a Junctioner, or a soul junction, hm... what do you think, from the above pages? I mentioned "An Intro" in relation to it back when I started story three. Does that help? I'm curious as to how much story three is getting across, if I'm giving too much information, or too little. Sorta so I know what I should explain before I stuff more into the artist's comments section I'd really appreciate the feedback, thank you.

I like the concept of the story... but sometimes I don't like how you draw fingers... ^^'


P.S.
Is the masked character inspired to Gundam?

Kagaya In reply to MajorasMasks [2006-08-28 18:38:12 +0000 UTC]

Will work on hands more, thanks ^_^

Haha, no. The mask was inspired by ... birds. I guess the Phantom of the Opera had something to do with it too...

KitsuneEclipse [2006-07-28 21:33:06 +0000 UTC]

Ditto on the double pages format; much easier. I'm so happy you've finally got this story going, and I will have to do many unpleasant things to you if you just leave it here forever and never get it started again.

I agree with bloo-chan; too much cross-hatching, but the universe frame made it look damn good. The whole story sounds fascinating, the characters are intriguing, and I have to admit I forgot about Hydra being a guy and thought he was a girl. It's the hair. But oooh, the hair! And so many bishies! I don't know where to look first!

Kagaya In reply to KitsuneEclipse [2006-07-29 15:56:26 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for the feedback, and for being happy with me for finally getting the story going *L* I'm happy that I've finally started too. And heh, if I don't continue after I finish these four stories for my class, feel free to do many unpleasant things ^^ I'd deserve it. (InnerMe: Yeah, it's about time!)

Point taken on the cross-hatching and on the universe frame. I rather liked how it turned out on that frame actually. That's why I ended up using it on the rest of it for consistancy... But yeah, too much of a good thing doesn't mean the same...

Drawing Hydra is fairly easy. I think "draw a female. YES, that looks like him now.." and it gives me an excuse to practice drawing girls more ^^ Heh. I sometimes do the same for Ryan, but then he gets annoyed, and I end up drawing him over again and again... More bishies coming soon *L*

Having just looked at all three of your stories, I think I like the viewing method of 2 pages at a time best. I also love your pacing and lineart; these comics are awesome!

Thanks! You're actually the first to say the 6-page format is prefered. I think I'll stick with 2 pages now though. A lot of people voted for that instead. ^^ And no, I don't put these on another site. If I find them on another site without permission, I'll definitely do something about it though.

OceanPurple [2006-07-21 08:25:20 +0000 UTC]

I definately prefer the double page viewing, it's more scrollable than 6 page, but with less clicking than single page (and thus the easiest way for my lazy mouse hand )

As for the story, I love it, and I'd seriously like to see a full manga or webcomic made out of it.

Kagaya In reply to OceanPurple [2006-07-21 22:54:22 +0000 UTC]

All right, double page viewing for the next story then ^_^ Everyone who's replied about it so far said the same about the pages. Thanks.

I'm glad you like it. I'm thinking of a manga, but so far, experimenting with web, is all.

OMG AWESOME! This story is so neato! *o* I love it. This is so wonderful, I want to read more.

*snugs Ryan* Don't worry! I'll make sure Sol takes care of you = D ... And gropes you.

Oh yeah, I like the other way of reading them better, but it doesn't really matter. ^_^

Kagaya In reply to EvilPenguinsOfDoom [2006-07-21 23:06:50 +0000 UTC]

The 'want to read more' thing is good *grin* Thanks! Ryan and Sol... I know Sol would take care of Ryan, but I don't think he'd grope him ^^ hehe. it'd definitely rile Ryan up though.

You mean reading in per two pages, right?

EvilPenguinsOfDoom In reply to Kagaya [2006-07-22 03:06:41 +0000 UTC]

Yes, two pages is much better, I think. It flows much nicer.

Well, somebody needs to grope him already. >-< I know, I'll just imagine! ^o^*pictures Ryan and Sol in compromising positions and snickers giddily*
