The end, for now
>>77598175
the main leads are absolutely vile, uncharismatic, socially awkward, edgy shitters.
perfect caricatures for the personality type intended.
>>77599232

It looks cool OP, I'm interested in seeing where you're going with this.

>>77598175
Huh. Pretty cool. Artstyle went a little too anime for me in a couple of bits but in others it seemed more like the art for the gorillaz animations and that's cool.
Interested to see where this goes. Thanks OP
Pretty good my man
>>77597530
>>77597547
I really like how those screens are actually pixel art
>>77597505
This comic reminds me of how lonely my first year of college was.
Pretty cool, OP. I'm glad you story timed it. I pinned the thread to get around to reading it but then you did this. You got yourself a reader now.
I do hope we get to see what makes Vincent such a huge cunt. Dude's a bitch.
>>77612535
Upon re-reading, I notice you have a good eye for reading and pacing. I really hope you keep this series going, I'd like to see what happens.
>>77612785
*details and pacing.

Oh sweet I saw Digibro retweet your comic so I read it and thought it was great.I love Vincent he's a perfect elitist edgelord, I'm looking forward to more.
>>77617602
Good old Digi. Sweet, precious Digi.
>>77597505
I like it.
>>77607509
Muh dick
Are you planning on it being more lighthearted? Seems like it has the potential to get really depressing really fast.
>>77618920
I think the tone will stay about where it is, sort of funny in a melancholy way.
>>77619470
I wouldn't mind one or two issues where things get serious every now and then, just give it a good balance :3

It's pretty great man. I love that it's both simple and (ugh..) complex at the same time. It's also a great caricature of people likeus
If you start using colour i swear to God will strangle you while you sleep.
I liked that the pace of the story reads fine, even though there's actually not much going on, but these are the kind of stories that rely more on character exploration. the character design is atractive but your figure drawing is a little lacking ,even taking into account its stylized. you have a good sense of line weight, and use of midtones and screens. i hated the edgy magda part so much,but i might not be the target demographic you're going for. everything else was decent, but then there's the sequences when the other girls enter the bathroom ,in my opinion that didn't read pretty clearly.
overall more good things than bad things.
congratulations on finishing it, i'm working on something myself but i keep correcting so many things, i never get to finish anything.
>>77597505
honestly i did like your comic - the art is intriguing
however, its easy to tell you're an artist not a writer - theres no direction, slice of life is a genre, but you're going to lose audience if there's no overarching plot
I like this a lot so far.
>>77623367
Not OP, i also think there's a lack of direction, but not every comic needs an overarchig plot, although the stories with overarching plots are more popular today, there's room for other type of narratives, like you said yourself, the slice of life is a genre.
These characters are insufferable and I hate them. Good job, OP!
This is chapter 1? I think it's a nice mid chapter but not a very good introductory one. Introductions should move a bit faster and show more of the setting I think. Like, how did these 2 roommates meet each other? How did they grow up? etc
Magda seems clinically depressed. Not tumblr depressed, like "my brain is a fuck up, depressed.
>>77624270
Eh, I've met a lot of people like her. She's primarily antisocial which is a different sort of a problem.
>>77624270
I think she might be depressed because the people at the school around her are horrible and she doesn't want anything to do with them. I had the same problem my first year of college (see above comment) but I've never been diagnosed with long-term depression.
This means she could be clinically depressed or just really misplaced.
>>77598117
That looks exactly like my freshman year dorm. Do they build these all the same or something?
This is garbage.
Can I live in Magda's hair?
>>77631212
CAN I?
>>77631354
I dunno CAN YOU
>>77597647
This is my favorite page, but I enjoyed the whole thing.
So are there any redeeming qualities to this or it's just shit people attracted to shit characters: the book?
