I was there during the first strip, and while I wasn't able to follow it after paola's grandma appeared holding snacks for nina, I'm glad I checked the site right when the last 2 strips came out Very Happy

I love this comic and I'm sad to see it go. I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for the book! Thanks for the laughs, Robin!

Has it been really six years? wow... I have read your comic since the begging and I must say I'm sure I'll miss it. But like all the good stuff in life, you need to know when to stop. Best of luck to you in your future projects, I hope we can see more of your storytelling someday.

We should be the one thanking you for all the sweet memories you gave us.

Gotta admit this strip had some genuinely funny moments (the one about fan subtitles). Good luck in your future endeavors.

I'm almost crying T-T

The catbus is real, and it's not just the catbus, there's a sootball pit inside

I've been reading this comic ever since I was a freshmen in high school to now almost being a senior in college. Thanks again for all the laughs and wonderful memories! I'll surely miss Nina and the gang! Crying or Very sad

One of the things I enjoy about anime and manga is how often they understand how important an ending is for a story. Even with my favorite series and shows, I understand that having the plot go on and on can potentially ruin all of the quality storytelling they've built up. In fact, most of my favorite series rarely go over 27 episodes, and all of them are less than 65.

Essentially, all stories come to an end, but good stories know when to end. I'll miss Nina and her friends, but I understand that things move on. Even the greatest comic strip in history barely went ten years.

Take care, and thanks for all of your hard work and effort.

Six years? Why, I must have been reading it for about five years. I'd thought it had been around forever ...

... brb ... [first] {click} ... {click} ... {click} ... ... ...

... and the one about the bishies that look identical except for their hair, I remember that one.

Gosh, now that I've read all of them, I need the collection. I hope its going to be available in an epub.

Thanks Robin. I've always looked forward to whatever Nina and the gang were going to be up to next. It's been a regular highlight of my time here, and I fear there's going to be a hole in ANN where the strip used to be. Ah, well.

Good luck in your future endeavours and, if you're taking pre-orders for the book, may I place one now?

Haven't read all the comics, but I enjoyed reading them just the same. Hope to see a printed collection someday. Thank you. Smile
