Description Nani Yukiko, although we did consider changing her name. He had a number of characters who had names that were meant to be a joke, including her. I suggested Haya Yukiko if there would be a change. I guess we didn't really make a choice about that. I think though that most characters are more likely to call each other by their last name than their first, so most will call her Yukiko either way.

I'm not sure the hair looks good, but I wanted to try some other things even if she ended up with the same hair as the older comic.

I still have to draw Sena, Sara, Reiko and Pierce. ...maybe Mika as well. I probably should draw a color picture of her in her ninja outfit as well, and an option for a bear mask for her.

I had to make an account just to say... Nami was my favorite character in peeved (and peeved was my fave comic from you!), and I found her to be very alluring in both looks and personality, so don't nerf her! Plus I always thought she was supposed to be magically busty from being in video games. Juno would be the only busty cast member if you shrink her and ms XL Sena!

I also really enjoyed the... "tension" between her and Sara, how can she hypnotize Sara without her pillows?

I'm not sure how to answer this.  Nani was also my favorite from PeEVEed, we originally planned to kill her off after fighting Eve, but that didn't happen.  I'm not sure how much to give away or not, so I feel like I should be vague.  I wouldn't change a character in a way that I thought wouldn't be better, either for the character, or the situation.  I think whatever your impression is now, you'll probably be happy with the result-- despite what you might think.  Maybe it a little different than you expect based off this picture.

Don't worry LF, I trust you! I'm really looking forward to your future work, and obviously peeved! Also, your art quality has gotten really nice the past year, it's really noticeable!

Hmm... I want to say that the hair could use a little more volume..?  I realize it was short in the original comic as well, but the hairstyle seems a lot more compact than what I remember

Aw, now you're downsizing the PeEVEed cast as well? I could understand Annie as you wanted to make a more serious comic, but still...

I actually made Annie smaller busted compared to the original comic because I had questioned for a while if she could seem like a competent hero at that size (and something that was somewhat plausible appealed to me).  Then I adjusted all of the others to make her the unusual one, leaving only Tabitha and Grace near her in size.  Most of the cast is relatively average.  My other option for the remake was to make Annie not a superhero, but part of some support team, and that might have allowed her to remain the same.


For Peeved, we're just trying to bring some variety to the cast.  There are five girls.  Eve and Juno are related, and the two of them are meant to have impressive at least hourglass bodies.  Sena's body is variable, but she doesn't want to stand out.  She'll usually have a relatively waif-ish body.  Sara has a similar body to Eve, but small breasts.  Nani is a ninja, and huge breasts would get in her way.  I had brought up the idea of making her a little chubby or something, but we decided instead to give her a big bottom.


You're also not considering twists and turns, and maybe magic.  I mean it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect a story where one or more were made bigger busted temporarily.

Also... Doesn't Sena LOVE standing out?

To be fair, half of the joke of her character was she came from a game where the girls were fighting with unreasonable busts!

Actually they were meant to come from a Mortal Kombat ish game originally.  It wasn't clear if they represented the entire cast or not.  Only a few of those people appeared.  The few times it was shown, it was very old and had simple graphics.

Yeah, I felt the mortal combat themes on her outfit, but I always figured she embodied all fighting game females, like dead or alive and the such.

Curse your desire to make your characters more realistic and sensible! Curse it, I say!
