I was absolutely devastated, ended up just writing script and doing crummy thumbnails with my finger. Luckily the first thing we did in Tokyo was go to an electronics store to buy me a new one.

I'll try to do a few more of these silly Japan trip comics when I have the time but they're gonna be fast and messy haha! Plenty of antics have already ensued and it is only day 3 here.
