...Is an accurate description for next week's image essentially Roll about to run over 3 cops in the support car with a single caption in the upper right? I'm a bit surprised that her and Rock have looks of such... glee on their faces.
And yeah... Gotta go for #1 this week. I seriously had trouble thinking up of captions for it, personally.

Hey hopefully this one will suit you better! If you have ideas about what makes one prompt better than another please let me know! I want to make sure people are captioning images they want to caption! I thought last weeks image would be pretty popular but what do I know? And yeah if you are browsing the manhua and see a panel or two you think would be fun to caption just let me know! There are a ton of great panels and its hard to choose! Edit: wow thats alot of exclamation! |

Nope, if you read the manhua you'd know that it's the cops yelling at both Rock and Roll. dashmanhua.com/Reader/Chapter1/4/A6.html |

Oh wow yeah I forgot that aiyumi needs an alt text for this weeks image. Yeah it is rock and roll in the cab of the spotter car driving into 3 distressed cops. Rock and roll are looking at each other with nervous looking smiles. But it also looks quite gleeful in a way so it is of course open for interpretation! Oh and Roll is driving of course.
Thinking about it I think mikey was trying to discretely describe it for that purpose. Youre a good guy Mikey!

Dang, I really want to vote for #3 this week, but that typo kills it. >_< Better make it 1.

I vote for #1, for its adept explanation of how people get into their armor in MML. Mysteries revealed! The absurdity of it makes me laugh. If you look at the MML concept art, that's actually 100% accurate. I'll also vote #1 as its basically the only one not obsessing over the love interest thing. (Its too easy when the love interests are actually in the panel guys! Go for the hard jokes!) |

You'll have to excuse my ignorance to something that was pulled out of context.  And I do read the main comic, but I don't pay attention to it a whole lot, since its portrayal of the story is exaggerated at best, much like next week's panel. The first cop is literally smearing his face into the windshield, and there's no indication that the support car is actually sitting still at all.  |

I thought the fun of the caption contest was to ignore context anyway!

Seriously? What concept art? It's weird to imagine characters other than Juno or maybe Sera / Yuna / possibly Mega Man doing that. Does that mean that somewhere in the Flutter, there's a headless humanoid body just standing or lying there while MegaMan is out fighting? O.o
Also where is the typo in #3? I'm typo-blind, can't see it!

Also where is the typo in #3? I'm typo-blind, can't see it! The typo is "armor's is." The apostrophe s is essentially a shorter version of "is", so with how it's conveyed now, there's two ises in the sentence, which is a typo. It's subtle, and I probably would've missed it myself if I didn't know to look for typos.  |

It's subtle, and I probably would've missed it myself if I didn't know to look for typos. I would say "armor's" there does not mean "armor is". It means "armor's color", referencing color from earlier on in the sentence. So the "'s" is to make it possessive, not a conjunction. The alternative wording without that "'s" would be "the color matching your armor," which isn't correct, because the color matches the armor's color, not the armor itself, right? |

The ideal alternative wording would be "The fact that it's the same color as your armor is just a coincidence!" No ambiguity on the message there, assuming the intent was to say "The color matching your armor's color is just a coincidence!" Without the direct object, it looks like a typo and isn't as easy to follow. |

In general, you should never have an ['s] followed by [is] or another ['s] if it is at all possible.
There are cases where it is syntactically difficult to eliminate paired ['s] though.
For example: "Frank's car's transmission is busted"
