My sexy Ren icon for you! :3 slr2moons April 8 2015, 02:22:58 UTC

Yep, the infinity "never" panel in Skip 34 is indeed in the Japanese version. In kanji, of course. I couldn't make the actual infinity symbol work with the type-along-a-line option. I had to do it all by hand, manipulating each letter as an image. *wince* I spent a good 5 hours on that one page. *headdesk*

Also, the sand writing. By the time I finished vol 34, I absolutely LOATHED the sand writing. Believe me when I say there is no photoshop shortcut to making sand writing. *headdesks again*

Good thing I love my job, eh? ^^

I gotta remember to pick up Library Wars 13!

Oh my goodness, the sand writing was great!!! It fit right in naturally-I knew that could only be achieved by your painstaking stippling labours!! Thank you for it. It really made the already-great scene even better, at least for this over-aware reader, since it didn't look jarringly font-ish or manipulated. (just disregard the fact that in spite of its natural appearance, I was distracted from the actual scene by how well-done it was. good lettering is something I delight in, so I very consciously chose to be distracted :D ) The Never Ever panel was also excellently done to match all the ridiculous effects in the original!!

It's pink and purple, actually. ^^ You know, hilighter colors. XD The big sand writing pages and the infinity page were both purple, which is the worst it can get. *wince ( ... )

Oh my goodness, I was soooooooooooooooo... overwhelmed?? giddy? full of emotions? (I can't find words for it either!!) when I read Skip 34!!! The first part between Kyoko and Lory, oh man!!! It was nerve-wracking and it made me love her even more, poor dear girl. And then! Guam!! The mermaid fairy princess!!!!! AHHHHH!! Just, gah, what an amazing series. I hope for all of Kyoko's dearest wishes and dreams to come true!

As for Library Wars, I felt like they were kind of redeeming the older Tezuka brother at this point, like his part as the antagonist was over now? But I could be wrong... we shall see!

Thanks for the Hakusensha update! I still haven't read v4 of Paradise Pirates... oops (but I did buy it). I'll have to finish it off along with v5! I wonder if she's writing something else now?

Yay we can fangirl about Kyoko, Ren and Lory, even Mr Yashiro - it's so funny when Kyoko imagined Mr. Yashiro like a teenage girl :D and the foreshadow of the title page... Amazing.
I'm glad that you think older Tezuka is being redeemed. I hope it goes that way. The way he teased the younger is funny.
I haven't gotten v4 of Paradise Pirates yet. One of these days, I hope you give me the story summary?
