Kubo: What can I say about your art other than it's excellent as always XD the backgrounds are so good, and I especially love the expressions you used in this comic! The outfits Wendigo went through were a real riot, though admittedly I think you maybe spent a bit too long on that montage, so that when you get to the end of the comic it cuts off right as it feels like it's getting going. The ending doesn't feel much like an ending, and more like the sort of cut that happens right before a commercial break--I wish we'd gotten to see the fight! Or at least part of it. Granted, I know that's a lot to ask in a week's time, but. ye.
Jade: Oh dang I knew what was coming before it happened and it STILL got me. Like everyone else said, the 'omg our hands brushed' panel had me wheezing, but so did so many other moments--like the continuing gag of Gwen just being in random other forms and never explaining why or how or anything, and TL Bot being summoned like a goddamn pokemon and then immediately getting rekt. I think my only crit is that I feel like you could've had Ancelin's explanation for the nanobot mesh probably should've happened sooner because I was lowkey wondering for the entire fight if Ancelin had somehow gotten shadow magic XD but I'm glad that you included the explanation at all, cuz it cleared up my confusion immediately. aaaaaaaaa I hope Ancelin will be okay ;A;
KUBO!!! This was great ☺️ Battling you was so much fun, and your comic was wonderful! I love how you channeled my recent chibi style in Ancelin's expressions while staying true to your own art style. I also love that you took the time to come up with unique designs for both Ancelin and Wendigo 🥺 That means a lot to me! Also, I need more midriff Wendigo in my life 😳
"I think my hunger just returned" is probably my favorite part of this whole comic XD. I feel like this is what it's like for a lot of people who aren't used to Ancelin's energy lol.
I loved this comic! You wrote Ancelin so well. I love that you took the time to draw the mall and its surroundings as Gregly and I have portrayed them in the past, and that you used my version of City Hall 🥺 Thanks again for the great fight!
PS—I like Snager's idea of my side basically being the sequel to yours :3
KUBO-
As always I'm obsessed with your expressions, such a great set of funny scenarios these two were put in :D. Super cool!
JADE-
First off, loving the ace rep- SECOND, I'm always impressed with how you incorporate other characters into this style as well as the DIALOGUE. Not so sure how to put it, but the way you write feels very nicely paced (if that makes sense). Great stuff!!
KUBO-
Amazing art as always! Really liked the different outfits Wendigo tried. The last one looks kick-ass, that last zoom on his face is so delicious!
JADE-
Oh my God the battle with all those suggestive poses, none of them thinking anything about it ... but turning into a blushing mess as their hands touched. That absolutely killed me oh my Godd. Loved the expressions too!!
Great round all around!!
These were both so fantastic!
Loved how Ancelin wasn't afraid to drag Wendigo around to try on different outfits and in the end it was all lead up to them getting ready for an epic battle!
The romance of battle was strong in this all the cute expressions!
snager:
I'm not sure what happened at the end. did windigo vomit up a full egyptian god there at the end? I wanna clarify this because I think it's a really interesting application of Hana's powers but I wasn't sure how to accurately portray it in the time I had. Basically, Hana's rot beast form is a creature that is in a constant state of decay, so when Wendigo ate its flesh, instead of it healing him, it caused him to vomit up rotting flesh. I was originally thinking he would puke up a homunculus that would just continuously rot, but I learned from kubo that Wendigo will first heal his own wounds before generating a homunculus, so this is just him puking out the decaying remains of Hana's rotting flesh, as well as perhaps some of his own rotting insides. Presumably he'd be able to find some non-toxic people to eat soon afterwards and heal the damage Hana did, but Hana herself had the opposite effect.
Kubo: these outfits are all so cute when they're not being hilarious and Windigo tolerating it all is weirdly endearing. i forget so often you're the props and outfits guy and you really let that shine in this battle. v. nice job highlighting what Ancelin is all about. your layouts are also really interesting. i'm going to have to come back to this comic to study it more and more. the ending kind of implies the fight they have is the one as portrayed on Jade's side, which is super nice.
jade: you went hard with that gore, violence, vomit, rotting flesh combining it all together, trying to get those sweet sweet edge points and I think it's working. and maybe it's because I'm reluctant to try picking it apart too much, but I'm not sure what happened at the end. did windigo vomit up a full egyptian god there at the end?
I wish there was a bit more of yours after the final outfit changed, Kubo. Do they fight?!?!? Do they just show off?? The art was super nice though! I loved the humor in yours Jade, it really works with the style of comics you're doing! The colors are also so pretty!
