#100 pages

[pink-onyx-au]

A big thank you!

While working on Episode 6, I realized that the comic had reached its 100th page. That’s a big milestone for me, since I when I started this I thought this would take about 200 pages to tell the story. As the comic develops, I now know it is going to be way more than that! But that’s ok! I can’t wait for 100 more and 100 more after that!

I want to say thank you for everyone’s support and commentary that encourages me to continue working on this. I wouldn’t have the drive and excitement to tell this story without wonderful people to listen to it. I might not be able to get to every ask right away or see every Like and Reblog, but know each one of them gives me a smile!

Looking forward to the future! Much love!! 🧡💕❤️

I finally arrived to the ONE HUNDRED PAGES!! 🔥

The next 8 pages will be posted in two updates. 93-94 (Kings) and 95-100 (SoB) I should be done with rendering the first update by the end of this weekend and the second one by the next week (If I take the longest time cause I might be done with one weekend lol) I think you will love it ^^

Here's a sneak peek for you :3

ALSO! Sky and Mini's introductions are coming ip very quickly! With the timing I got, some stuff may be confusing cause there's some criss-cross that may make no sense with what's been shown, but I will do my best to make it make sense to you ^^

Thank you to everyone supporting me so far! Tell me if you have ideas to celebrate the 100th page :)

The pages are already marked on the masterpost if you forget which pages are in which update ^^

Spent a ridiculous amount of time last night obsessively editing my hand written zines in Photoshop to take away any tiny blemishes so they were definitely readable.

Whatever. Understand or don't.

You can read the first part of this series here. . “What is your next dream project? Your pie in the sky wish?” A group of us sat in our Airbnb, eating pizza and making conversation, buzzing with anticipation for the following day’s activities.

btw if you borrow dvds or cds from library you can rip them onto your own blanks or onto your hard drive or whatever. librarians don’t care and they won’t know if you do it or not

Okay, doodle request:

Reigen meeting Serizawa before Claw got to him. Maybe helping him start leaving his room?

I had a lot of fun with this one. I wanted it to parallel the scene of Serizawa meeting Suzuki, and so pages 6-8 are directly referenced from the manga (just in a flipped format so it reads left to right like the rest of the pages) and I also referenced some shots from the anime (like the final panel of page 10). For the dialogue in those middle pages, I referenced lines from the unofficial English translation of the manga, the official English translation of the manga, and the anime. (I was picking and choosing which lines I liked better). I also had fun with the colouring, which is something I love to do in comics especially. It starts out with Reigen in a muted, paler, desaturated palette with no highlights. But when he meets Mrs. Serizawa (I gave the name “Azumi” because it means something along the lines of “safe home/harbour”), she’s much more warmer and saturated and she has highlights. Once she starts explaining her son’s situation, that’s when Reigen has the variation of colour as well as the introduction of some small highlights. Then, the colour palette changes in every panel after that point. Serizawa is done with a grayscale palette, with the only colour on him being the bright light of the TV screen (reflecting video games as his only joy and his escape from reality). As Reigen talks to him, Reigen slowly start to lose some of that variety and saturation (AKA hope) he got from Mrs. Serizawa until he goes grayscale as well when he thinks that Serizawa might know he’s a fraud. He decides to switch up his approach and actually open up, which is what causes the variations in colour to return. Serizawa stops being grayscale in the panel where Reigen reveals that he too is lonely. (He’s a gray-blue palette, but it’s not true grayscale). The next page is in bright colours as Reigen opens up and doesn’t lie, which causes Serizawa to have bright colour as well, since now there is light and hope. In the page after that, Serizawa’s colour fades until he is grayscale again because it’s him not believing fully and still having doubts, while Reigen maintains that bright colour. (Also silly Falsettos reference on that page). I have Reigen’s colours shift from yellow until he reaches pink which is the colour I just have assigned as His Colour (since his tie is pink). Serizawa gains colour again and he shifts from that muted dark blue to finally orange (which is his colour) as he finally accepts Reigen’s help. The light from the TV is no longer coloured, and is just white, because Serizawa now has a new source of colour in his life (that being a real friend.) It ends with them being in their normal palettes at a normal happy saturation, contrasting the muted colours of the start of the comic. With the umbrella, I still wanted to include it and give it a role in the story, but in a different way from how Suzuki used it. While Suzuki used it to directly manipulate and control Serizawa, Reigen used it as a way to open up a choice for Serizawa to either let Reigen stay or make him leave. He asks Serizawa if he can sit and stay for a while since it’s raining outside and he didn’t bring an umbrella, despite clearly having done so. And then I ended the comic with a shot of the umbrella to emphasize that point.

Sorry for the long and probably unnecessary explanation. I just really love explaining my intentions and symbolisms in my art. Yeah I just had a good time over the last few days doing this :) I thought it was an interesting idea and I couldn’t think of a way to reflect it better than in a comic (which was also partially inspired by this wonderful Ageswap AU comic made by @fend13th about Reigen helping Serizawa)
