The color helped panel 5 immensely. My friend Bethany couldn't tell what was going on when I showed her the original (B&W) page. Also, in panel 3, the size difference might look a touch off. Seiko really is very short, but it is also a high angle, and she's not really standing up straight. the position is more important than the proportion anyway. ;-)

Peipei: Technically, Fudo never killed anyone Seiko really cared about – although he certainly tried.

amanda: Awe. :-( You always have fun insights. I didn't know the ads were distracting. I thought I positioned them fairly non-obtrusively, but I don't want to distract anyone, so I removed it.

trevor: She's in a rural area where no one speaks English, so she has been pretty lonely – though not *too* much thanks to WoW and the kitten she adopted.

Aghammer: Thanks. I challenge myself to convey emotion with simplified features.

Warpedwenger: I don't have too much trouble, but it takes a lot of practice to draw those things without references.

DAJB: That's a funny bit of conditional forgiveness. Lol. More of a trade I suppose.

ghostrunner: My mom bought a car off her cousin for $300. (Their last two cars were bought new, though. They've paid off one but not the other yet.)
