#65 – Forest no Scramble

I don’t know… XD I really couldn’t help myself though, lol. XD

Forest no Scramble! XD I’ve been waiting weeks to make this joke.

Whew this has been a long week! Midterms and papers and all sorts of things due, I’m glad I’ll (hopefully) be able to rest for a while. Except not because I want to get started on a bunch of stuff, lol. Ah well, the life of an artist is a busy one. Especially when your family and friends all want to do things with you during your free time. u.u; I’m sure I’ll figure it out someday.

Have a nice day, onegaishimasu!

I can safely say I didn’t expect such a reference.. But awesome. XD I love the seriousness too, as it just helps add a good level of importance to it..despite being a board game. x3 I always love that about anime. Be it about baking, board games, card games, or fighting with tops.. It’s always serious business. *nods!*

Hehe, glad you liked it! Nothing says serious like an intense battle over a children’s card/board game after all!

hehe … this is a nice one …. love the BW style … and the “TAP” looks very energetic

Thanks! Was hoping things would turn out well for it, since this is a much different style than I usually use. And I was trying to at least mimic Hikaru no Go’s style a little, which is hard to do when those characters aren’t, you know, animal people, lol.

Lol, this made me laugh.

Thanks! I was trying to make it look more serious.

Yes!

Heheh, nice one! When my friends and I play games, we either goof off waaay too much, or we’re serious. This one makes Damien look a lot older than last comic… Cool! I’m looking forward to how this serious game of Scramble turns out… And what the bet was!

I wasn’t trying to make him look older, but he just turned out that way! Which works for the “serious” feel to the comic, so its all good then. I can usually do anime style easily, but its harder when trying to mix cartoonish characters with it, the results are a little unpredictable I guess.

hikaru no go…I stopped reading shortly after they got rid of Sai

I haven’t even read that far, lol. I did like the series though, just haven’t read it in a long while.

Ya know, I’ve heard of that series before, read a short description of it, and for a few months now, if I’m not thinking, that name will run through my head for hours over and over like a broken record. >.> Never seen it though!

Its fun to say at the very least! Hikaru no Go! I’ve never actually seen an episode of the anime, but I read the manga for a while.

Haven’t read it either…But I’m betting you pulled this off just like the manga would. :3 The only thing that’s missing is bad fan art at the back of the book! :O

Woah. Damien looks way too old… How long does this game last? They look like they could be in their upper teens! Sweetness! I like where this is going! And thank god our exam is over, huh Star? Oh, don’t forget to get on bus #16 after school, K? Nice comic, by the way! Just… one thing… I though Damien’s eyes were Amber. It’s just something that alerted me. Lookin’ forward to Monday!:D

Damien’s eyes are amber! But manga is in black and white, so you can’t see that here cause I was trying to copy that sort of style. Hehe, and no, the game hasn’t been going that long, just that I guess “seriousness = older” so that’s why they turned out that way, lol.

Don’t worry. I’m just about to sneak out of class. See you on the bus!

Wow did he jump in age… I think the only thing to say besides how hard I laughed is that you made a board game about spelling dramatic… Now what can ever top that?

An actual anime about a children’s card game based off of a children’s board game!

Or mabye not, lol.

In scrabble if the word craziest is played on the right spot it will be worth 357 points. nick named “the triple triple”

Wow, really? That’s insane… XD That’s a game winner right there, lol. XD

And here I thought only children’s card games could be played in an overly dramatic manner!

Attention duelists! My hair is telling me that other games could probably work just as well!

I’m just waiting for the anime spin-off of my comic. Its coming some day I bet!

I can almost see FW just pulling off something better than Damien. oh and just in case no one read to the bottom of the previous comic, I found this little thing where you create a city and then you send this code to other people and when they click on it, the population of your city increases. Here’s mine:

Grrr, serious! >:[

I think just about any game could be serious if you wanted it to be though! Like, um…Go Fish!

“Got any threes?” *punch!* “NO! Go fish! >:[“

I’m rooting for Damien. :3 He has the home field advantage.

Well, he did say it was one of his favorite games, so I bet he’s pretty skilled at it.

HAHAHAHAHAH!
Scrabble Serious!!!

You’ve got to watch out for those double and triple letter scores, especially when they have an X or K or something! D:

O.o that just went over my head… I honestly thought I went to the wrong website for a split second… I feel so dumb. Anyhow, very nice! And anime characters always look older unless they have really big eyes!

admin Reply:
May 1st, 2009 at 9:50 pm

Oh! So that’s what I should have done…But the really big eyes would have distracted from the seriousness I think, which was what I was shooting for! Haha, and I’m glad the style looked so different that it seemed like a different comic, guess I pulled it off better than I thought.

Hehe, Serious time guys. No really, Manga Serious.
Lol, When I submitted a comment earlier, it said “New comment is submitting, Please wait a comment…” How long is a comment anyways? XD

It’s super-cereal, guys.

And man. Manga-serious. That’s about as serious as you can get without going Batman-serious.

Batman-serious??? Oh no, you don’t go that far unless you have very good reason to, and its at least, at least half-past Go Time! D:

Holy Forest Wolves, Batman! :O
Or is it Wolfs, since it’s a last name? Hmm…>.>

admin Reply:
May 3rd, 2009 at 9:21 pm

Hmm, good question… :\ Is “Wolf” their last name, or is it just what they are? Though I think it’d be hilarious to have my last name be “Human” or something, but that’s just me.

Oh yeah, I remember watching the first few episodes of the anime of hikaru no go and I forgot about it. Now I am going to watch it again. Thanks for reminding me about it.

You’re welcome! They can be quite enjoyable, so have a fun time watching them!

Ya, I will. Keep up the good work.=)

Gasp and alarm! A temporary switch in style to portray seriousness! But really, this reminds me of all the anime series where everyone’s shouting out all of their special attacks and such, and trying to make it seem more intense than it would in reality, but most people watching can’t help but feel embarassment for the poor voice actors who have to put up with it, or possibly be impressed by the voice actors ability to not break out laughing mid-sentence when shouting out their silly lines. Great comic, by the way.

May 3rd, 2009 at 9:22 pm

You know, I’ve wanted to be a voice actor just because they get to shout silly and outrageous things at the top of their lungs, and get paid for it!

I do that now and no one gives me anything! :’(

And thank you, I try my best!

Now if only they could make UNO this serious

He tipped his hat back slightly, glancing at the two hombres on either side of him. One of them, a skinny cow smuggler from down south of Pasadena, the other, a strong armed thug in the employment of the fine gang members who called this bar home and turned it into a den of thieves, robbers and worse.

Mr. Skinny finally piped up: “Your turn senor.”

He shifted in his seat, leaning back slightly to press one foot against the table leg, and slip his hand down to his waist, where his pistosl sat holstered at his side. He looked over his two cards, glanced at both of his opponents.

He set one green card down on the pile, his hand slowly moving away as the two hunched over to see. There was a blur of motion as he drew both pistols at once, kicking over the table and jumping to his feet in a flurry of rainbow colored cards, curses, and screams. All eyes stared at the brazen man, shocked.

“Uno. Draw two, amigos.”

——————-

Is that serious enough maybe? XD

I’ll say! Awesome little bit there!

Scrabble. Serious business. Apparently at least, especially with that hidden bet on the line. I gotta see this.
