I wonder which homonuculus Nina's creation will end up becoming.

My guess? Pride.


Nah, you have to consider the fact that it have to match with Ninas own personal needs/goals when she was making it. My guess would be either Lust (since she did it for the love of the anime) or greed (she's an as far as we know unemployed newself anime otaku watching and probably buying lots of anime and merchandises. Last time i checked they had it pretty rough to enter the labour market)


I say we leave the whole 7 deadly sins idea and call this one curiosity. Wink Although I really like the idea of her trying to revive Myoopi! Laughing Poor Myoopi if that's true. Crying or Very sad

Definitely a great comic though, probably my favorite non UMD one so far. Smile

Haha, I was just thinking about this the other day. I was like "What else do I even like besides anime?"
"...Well, I like manga!" "...that's practically the same thing..."
"...Video games!" "...they're all anime related though..."
"Music!" "...*coughj-popcough*"

I do enjoy all the references. I've been known to pretend I could dance ballet after watching some Princess Tutu AMV's... but we don't talk about that.

Keep up the great work, Robin =D

Ooh! Princess Tutu reference, awesome! And I have to agree with everyone, the last panel is hilarious.

(Hmm...Princess Tutu....Fullmetal Alchemist...Now I'm going to have to finally check out Yakitate Japan, aren't I?)

Shonen, shonen sports, shonen cooking and a shojo sports series all in one comic? Impressive Robin, that must have taken time to think of, great job though.

You forgot magical girl.


Princess Tutu was a magical girl series? I just thought the series was a shojo sports series. I didn't know that.


Well, it's more mahou ahiru, than mahou shoujo...

That was a good comic. I wonder how many people really try to get involved with the things they watch anime about? Baseball and ballet seem too much work, though maybe I'd learn to play Go...

Hmm, her training has not come along far enough to have mastered the art of rolling all 5+ feet of hair up under a small cap or wig, and leaving at most a shoulder length remaining.

Yet this week really bothered me ... why are all the shows labeled? How are the forums supposed to go on for pages in Lost-like fanaticism guessing at what each minute reference was when there is a title floating above the TV each time? All we are left with is hoping she didn't eat the candy from panel 5 so she could use it to weaken the Homonculi enough for the kill.

Since Nina likes baking I suppose they'd have to find a Philosopher's baking dish for Myoopi. Except it would come at a terrible cost requiring massive amounts of live flour transfusions into it for it to have power.
