This is the end of long tennis match. Sorry if this was boring. I wanted to practice drawing "Rurouni Kenshin"-ish action scenes through this arc. I bought volume 17 of "Rurouni Kenshin" just for reference too. If you look closely, you'll notice some of Laika and Konstantin poses are exactly same as Kenshin and Aoshi in original manga. I learned quite a lot by immitating Watsuki Nobuhiro's action scenes.
I don't know why Konstantin is shouting "This is the end". Unless he gets two points ahead of Laika, he can't win the set. I'm pretty sure he was losing in the last comic strip by 6-7. Anyway, don't think too deeply how the tennis game went. It was a very close match, but at the end, Laika won. ^^;
Please write your comment or suggestion to this comic strip at pOnju forum.
