The level of execution is amazing! The story, or at least the plot is melancholic in my opinion, I'd rather it to run out in something more explicit, but it has a lovely atmosphere, that makes reading it a joy.

this is me. what war i'm waging inside. except currently I have gone a bit further. I switched universities and followed my passion in art. but if there were to be a personal part two... it would be trusting in the faith of myself to succeed in art school and myself. Its a struggle still. Thinking it would be easier just to get my medical degree...

Your piece is very inspiring. Thank you.

awesome, lovely, unpretentious. I loved it. I love the narrative, the style, the lines. I relate to this so much, you have NO IDEA. Thank you for drawing this.

Waaaa so good! I saw it on tumblr, and immediately thought the ink lines were so rad. The feel to the comic feels so down-to-earth and personal, I felt immediately drawn to it. :3

I just wanted to say how much I love this and lines and story telling and fjsdljljsdfj this kind of slice of life stories are really and truly my favorites to read.

Congrats on getting this done within 24 hours!! Holy shit. Did you plan this before you started it or something? Anyways i'll just look at this forever, k thx

rasenkai In reply to yujlee [2011-10-04 04:44:14 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I always have an easier time relating to these types of stories, for obvious reasons. And, hey, thanks for reading it!

Hahaha, yeah, I kinda surprised myself. This idea, this emotion, this... whatever had been bothering me for some time, but all the planning of story points (?), characters, etc were completed the day of. I dunno, maybe it was "easy" since it was, embarrassingly enough, a direct translation of my own thoughts.

Great lines, dude. I love the way the shapes come together.

Thanks, man. Sometimes I think it's a miracle that my lines come together to look like anything at all, haha.

This is GREAT!! I love it! There's a really, really great rhythm and beat to it as you scroll down- the spacing makes it perfect. Wow! I'm impressed it's incredible how connected, yet disconnected art, narrative and animation are. I mean, these drawings are so rough and not crazily rendered, so it completely WORKS with the story! Yaaaay! You should be happy. I am.

rasenkai In reply to CarlySanker [2011-10-04 04:26:34 +0000 UTC]

Haha, thank you. And don't worry. Your comment did show up.

I'm glad this long format ended up working out since it really wasn't how I intended for the comic to be read.

Topler [2011-10-04 01:18:24 +0000 UTC]

Those lines. I'm in love. Did you do this with straight ink? Or first pencil, then ink later? Because this is so swank. I really want to try to do this now.

rasenkai In reply to Topler [2011-10-04 04:23:34 +0000 UTC]

Thumbnail, rough pencil sketch, and then ink. Haha, but my inking looks even messier than my pencil sketches sometimes. I just used a regular, run-of-the-mill uniball pen, in case you were wondering.

Topler In reply to rasenkai [2011-10-05 02:32:02 +0000 UTC]

Really? Wow, then that's a pretty swank run-of-the-mill pen! Messy is a style, and honestly, this inking job is superb. I don't think it's messy at all!
