	| First| Prev | Next |Last | Love Situations #17 "Osananajimi 5" (Story Arc: Osananajimi) | First| Prev | Next |Last | "Osananajimi 5" by Akira (2007-03-28) I'll be home around 11 pm tonight. I should be able to start working on today's stip from midnight then. Today's strip is about nothing. It's a daily scene and there is not much meaning to the page (maybe a little)... It's quite relaxing that I can waste spend a page like this. Hurray to 20+ pages long story arc. My drawing skill is coming back gradually... I think. I inked recent pages better than the first page. There are still many unbalanced body/face and out of perspective backgrounds, but I'm doing fewer retakes/redrawings, which is nice. The main problem is I have difficult time drawing characters consistently... Their face keep changing panel by panel. Sigh... ^_^; I was tired... I slept instead. I'll finish it tonight, I think ^_^;... but failed again... Sigh... Meanwhile, enjoy "Busou Renkin" taste "Fate/Stay Night" OP. It's amazing. Original looks like this. I still think it's one of best OPs of this and last seasons. Also enjoy Rockman version of Haruhi ED dance too. Please write your comment to this strip at pOnju forum

	"April Fool's!" by Konstantin (2007-04-03) Lots of April Fool's pranks this year, the funniest I've seen coming courtesy of mirror moon (potentially NSFW, 18+, zOMG spoilers, etc) and their rather creative F/SN translation. Honorable mentions go to NNL and Tokyo Toshokan, both of whom were worth at least a chuckle. The most awesome one, though, came courtesy of 0verflow (18+), the makers of the cult erogame School Days, who released a gag video (the unauthorized distribution of which may result in an encounter with a chainsaw-wielding yandere) and Chinese, Korean, and most importantly English translations of the demo for Summer Days. The translation, while not exactly perfect, is in pretty intelligible Engrish, and if they were to ever do the full game that way, I'm sure I wouldn't be the only drooling foreign fanboy lining up for a copy (assuming they managed to get the bugs out by now). The demo itself is nice and cute, fully voiced and animated, and focuses on Setsuna, a character who seems to be designed specifically to melt me into a pool of moe-overloaded fanboy. Although they removed the page with the goodies at the end of the day, it looks like their torrent tracker is still up and being seeded. There's also a directly downloadable copy of the demo up on Visual News.
