I really need to go to work. I'm not that happy with current dialogs. The general direction is right, but I should be able to add more interesting spices here and there... You know more about people by playing sports with them. It's easy to fake words, but it's difficult to hide body languages. Aggressive people play aggressively and defensive people like Onii-chan become defensive. If they fake, you can see it quite easily. I bet a master like Fuuka-san can detect them easily. 5/25 - I tried to work on the page, but I was so sleepy, I couldn't wake up. Sigh... Please write your comment to today's comic strip at pOnju forum. Living Room This is picture of a living room where I draw ExCoKo comics. I sit on a floor and draw using a glass table. It's really comfy because I can lie down when I get tired (as you can see, it is equipped with a blanket). We Japanese do use table and chairs, but we also use these type of sitting tables too. It's the benefit of taking off shoes. You can lie down on a floor. I use WACOM monitor tablet I bought years ago. I got so used to this tablet, it'll be difficult to create strips without it. I only have a laptop computer (no desktop) because I enjoy taking "Tsunami" everywhere I go. There is a TV and HD recorders I use to watch anime. I don't think I can live without them either. It became part of my life. Controlers for TV and recorders are located besides me. That is a default. I still have 80 more shows to watch (total of 30 hours of anime... ^_^;). Sigh... I want more time. Please write your comment to this strip at pOnju forum

	"MegaMari: Preview" by Totaku (2006-05-25) Greetings everyone, I'm lucky to be here today since I had my reasons for coming up here today. So I thought I'd go and share you about some more games I've heard about and plan to get ahold of (and probably rant about it later if Konstantin doesn't say something first about the game XD) The name of this game is MegaMari. A Doujin game based off the Touhou series. For those who aren't familar with it a danmaku (curtain shooter) game sereis that pits girls against one another and you weaver around fighting off enemies and bosses while dodging massive amounts of bullets and such. MegaMari mainly puts the focus on two character Marisa (a female Magican) and Alice (a Puppetier) as they battle against everything ranging from faries, fuzzballs, Maids, rabbits, ect. and evnetually will confront some of the other Touhou charaters as bosses. The game itself is based off of the old classic Megaman series which for an old school gamer like me I find enjoyable ^^) Beyond that all I can tell you is the game comes Twilight Frontier and you can find some images of the game here That's about it, as soon as I get my hands on the game I'll give a full review on this import piece that looks to be very interesting. ^^ Till next time.... Ja Matta. ^_^ -Totaku Please write your comment to this strip at pOnju forum
