Why does it look like that shot of Rock and Roll back to back remind me of Chris and Jill from Resident Evil? I dunno why. I don't know much of RE games but their team-up in this page you did kinda resembles them: i.ytimg.com/vi/tB3XYAVFPmQ/maxresdefault.jpgEDIT: Scratch that, it was a Contra reference, I saw your discord post. Regardless, I hope you are still enjoying yourself doing these things on top of your regular life. Also it just hit me: by the amount of content you have right now, it wouldn't be out of the left field to sell prints as a doijin or something. But then again I know little about that world so maybe it's still overstepping copyright bounds.

MegaTuga : Whoops, sorry for really late reply there. The idea of selling volumes has definitely crossed my mind, and is something I am still looking into (on top of work and personal life). Anyway, that's not the reason any of you check this thread so here's a little something for now (also proving I'm still not dead and still working on it)!

Looking good there! It has Teisel, so you've caught Polly's and my interest! It's also nice to know you haven't been hit by a bus. Those buses can be very sneaky...unless it's all trains by you, then you're probably fine in the bus department.

Knowing too much anime, in Japan it's the trucks that are the most threatening.
Anyway, I really dig (eheh) the action shots and effects. All that gunfire sure looks pleasing to the eye.

Seriously, no one noticed Chapter 5's been live for weeks now? So much for subtlety.

Seriously, no one noticed Chapter 5's been live for weeks now? That's indeed true. In between work and other stuff keeping me alive I'm still going at it. So what better way to post here after a while than this week's update! With more stuff happening now plot-wise, discussion is always welcome, so fire away!

I can quickly see why you thought maybe the subtle approach was a good idea. This is one of those stretches where it's pretty much just action, so there's not really much to talk about besides, "Well, I hope this battle ends well."

I'm the kind of person who needs to be reminded about almost everything so this took me off guard. I have some constructive criticism: Kick-Ass Roll is awesome, keep it going. Also, Does Teisel have actual eyeballs now? What's next, Gramp's beard is fake? Just jokingš¤£

This is one of those stretches where it's pretty much just action, so there's not really much to talk about besides, "Well, I hope this battle ends well." Half and half, but yeah a lot of this chapter would be action especially with showing several boss battles. I'm the kind of person who needs to be reminded about almost everything so this took me off guard. I have some constructive criticism: Kick-Ass Roll is awesome, keep it going. Reception to Roll being made a fighter has been a little mixed, though I really think it isn't that farfetched considering her parents and grandfather range from competent to being outright legends in their field of expertise. Besides, if different adaptations can make Classic and EXE Roll more hands-on in fights...

Just a quick note, I would be doing a short test run of making updates on Saturday Mornings my time (so they should be up around Friday evening PST), with the next one coming this week.

Besides, if different adaptations can make Classic and EXE Roll more hands-on in fights... Absolutely, Roll is already quite brave in the games: she drove an un-armored vehicle across a field filled with tanks, participated in several fights against pirate machines and vehicles, ran carelessly un-armored and weaponless at Yosyonke's ruins, and much more. So I think that if at some point she had to use a gun there will be no problems for her, after all, she builds all types of weapons, it's no surprise that she would test them out herself before giving them to Rock.

Of course, there's still a base line to this. For one, I think it would break too many strands of belief (based on whatever canon/concepts exists) if I go too far with this by making her too powerful (which would horribly downplay real threats).
And obviously, I have to be selective with when and how to let Roll show off her fighting on-foot.
Otherwise it would be detracting from Rock (who's for all intents and purposes the main focus of the story) especially when he gets more upgrades to show off as the story continues.

(smiles a little) You know, the way you do your blasts and explosions reminds me of manga I read as a kid, mainly from Dragonball haha. I'd think 'If I got those explosions right, I'd get manga right' haha xD
I don't mind Roll getting in on the action, though I do see her getting in over her head = w =... maybe a scene where Rock gets to save her from a situation she put herself in? It's really quite good, and I admire your dedication as always!

I'd think 'If I got those explosions right, I'd get manga right' haha xD There's just something organic about dynamic effects drawn from scratch, partly because they're horribly impractical to trace by nature and always give some flair to a panel.
Maybe! We'll see soon enough!

It took me a while to realize last panels are a flashback, I know that the black background is used to point out that stuff though.
