Phew. Another Poking Around page has appeared and it is stuffed to the gills with a lot of subtext. So much so, I had to trim down to the bone so this page wouldn’t take any longer to produce than it has done. So I say at nearly 2am at the time of writing this entry before posting. (EDIT: In fact, I had to reupload this several hours later because of several typos I ...

It’s a new month, a new page and a new font for the dialogue; I wanted something that complimented the art a bit more and I think Action Man may just fit the bill for now.
There’s quite a bit of subtext coming, so please look forward to what comes next; we’ll get back to sumo bit soon enough. At least there are plenty of Translation Notes to tide you over in the meantime. Thanks again for your time and support.

Before anyone comes for me, it's a reference to this video game's first boss. In fact, his name is a corruption of 踊るわ odoru wa, which is literally "I'll dance" (said emotively). Which to be fair, he does a bit of given the chance.

Won’t lie; a bit of real world anxiety snuck into this page.

Enjoy, and please look forward to more next month.

All of you Patrons... so much money... just wow (when I saw how much came in today).
Considering everything that's gone in the world the past month, thank you so so much to every single one of you who still chooses to support me. But I think the fish guy says more than I ever could. You're truly invaluable people - thank you for keeping me safe and sane.

And the next part… which veered somewhat the original scenario (whoops). That’s to say, Bo’s own flashback was to be a lot shorter but I wanted to keep the text-to-image ratio consistent. After all, comics are a visual medium.
And I liked the challenge of trying to draw a maturing Bo and Tori – notice how they lost the cutesy aesthetic over time? Granted, I had to do a bit of a 2020-05-15 16:38:06 +0000 UTC View Post

So without giving too much away regarding the plot, this guy is from episode 3 of BNA, introduced as Mr Yaba.
I'm not too happy with how this one turned out to be honest. But I had already worked on it for far too long to scrap it. So here it is. A slight exaggeration of what happens... but that's all I'll say. I'll come up with something better... But in the meantime, enjoy.
