Its great stuff but I wish more of the ideas would follow through to appropriate punchlines or resolutions. Great Teacher Largo just sort of faded away and I kind of doubt anything will truly come of Largo's involvement in disaster control.




This reminds me of a what happened a few months back. Megatokyo was starting a GTA sppof set in Tokyo. Piro only did two comics and left it hanging to do more of the same boring comics. Why would he even bother doing it if he wasn't going to finish it? What's even worse is that Seraphim recently dissed my homestate of Michigan. Yeah, the winters are bad here, but they're not THAT bad.

Louie-kun, GTC was supposed to be a one time parody. Fred was going to have 4 strips with it, but he got some inspirations, so he went back to the main story. Megatokyo in its current form is not meant to be funny. It truely is a manga, and you must be a poor anime fan if you don't know how mangas work. There are like g different stories going on at the MT site: MT, NNM, GTC, DPD, SGD, and Pirodrama. You have to know which story to place each strip. MT is the main story, and should the the kind of strips we'll usually see. We are currently well into Chapter 4 of MT, and besides a few of the other strips sprinkled in, that's all we'll get. Nothing more ill likely happen to the others until Chapter 4 ends, which will be sometime in November. Besides, Chapter 4 is comign out great. We just got a reealation of the back story from when Miho met Piro and Largo before our two heros decided to take their vacation from... SONY. Wink

While I understand that there is a main story, I was talking about how there was no resolution in GTC and was left hanging, that's all. I didn't say anything about GTC replacing the main story. And don't you dare call me a poor manga fan just because I don't like what Piro did. Megatokyo is not even real manga.

Yeah, like I said, wonderful stuff but Piro needs to leave less stuff hanging. Also, not to criticize, but Piro and Seraphim look absolutely NOTHING like their characters.

MT is not to shabby, a good way to kill 5 minutes at work every other day.
Lahtough I have to disagree with folks who say the story drags and the characters are lame. Maybe I just don't expect a lot from it.

BTW, I did get the chance to meet Fred at ACen, nice guy.
