Kevin's initial character design looks so innocent on the other note...

GROSS Atrocities.... woot! Very Happy

Off topic: Strawberry Panic is....... *looks both ways* ...particular.


On topic: I'd so see Nina in some form of yuri school and popping in there out of nowhere in a dream and ending up under a ladies deep eyes.......hmmmm....not quite on topic yet.


ON TOPIC!!!: I like the big pic on the right on Nina!

There, finally got on topic....now I should go to sleep seeing that I have university in 8 hours and having watched 12 episodes of Strawberry Panic.......who knows what kind of dreams I'll have now...

*dreams of Nina tumbling over a rock in a prairie and Etoile coming to the rescue and stealing her a kiss in the most gentlest of ways*

It doesn't look as though Nina's design has changed all that much looking at these pics.
Damn, that Robin is a good artist.

I especially like that little Kevin looking up at the big Nina on the right. He looks so cute. Cool
Is he standing in awe, or is just taking a peek at her... Shocked

Maybe Robin should try a stip using the less SD Nina & co.

Hiatus again? I hope there are some good reasons why it isn't possible to deliver one single weekly strip regularly in the first year already.

Good luck with that!

OOO! Triple posting, nice one.

@Robin: Not running out of ideas already, or is it because of animefest in NYC? Wink

I guess this is better then a recap episode, but not by much!! If Robin wanted a week off why not let Myoopi take another shot at it, that was great stuff.

Very interesting! Some designs are obviously adaptations of Jadress, Robin's original character & ANN's original mascot, before the site was redesigned... & Nina, her "little sister" showed up.

Here's an oldie but goodie from the Lexicon: Super Deformed. Notice the examples...
BTW, a guest comic would have worked too... Come Back, Myoopi!

Ooh! Sounds like a bit of a backstory.

I think Robin has a right to time off every once in a while. In fact, in the almost 12-months that this strip has been running, we've only missed one strip, and this is the second "filler" strip.

I definitely don't count the Sara Pocock strips as filler or being missed.

Even syndicated artists take time off now and then, and typically they just re-run old strips. IMHO guest > filler > repeat = skipped.

It looks like there are a lot of prototypes of Myoopi.

I wonder what did the creator of Myoopi do to the prototypes.

I hope not as tragic as what happen to Misuzu in the anime Air, or as sad as what happened to the many Diclonius in Elfen Lied.
