I’m actually printing 20 at this point but that’s max.
When I printed 40 I barely sold anything and I’m sick of lugging around extras. I think 20 is a good amount both at the con and online.

Only 15 copies? You should print more than that.

Aesir> if you saw the next page I think it would make more sense to you. At this point you can only assume what happened before and after so that’s probably why it seems out of character.

On the other hand, most of this doujinshi is out of character so I don’t think there’s any hope left for in character anyway

0rion> the sad things yaoi fangirls have done to anime fandom. When I go to cons, I’m ashamed to eat pocky. lol

Haha Totali…isn’t it funny how it doesn’t work as well in a different language idiom?

Translation can be such a bitch sometimes, trying to preserve the nuanced meaning without having it sound completely awkward in the target language. xD

Also Hinano lol @ your “weeaboo explosion” comment. It’s a shame that that kind of Japanese use has such a stigma associated with it, as in an objective sense it really is kind of cool, being able to blur the line between languages from time to time.

hm now that i look at it, i think kyon’s immediate reaction is a lil out of character.. i can imagine him going with more of a “h-haruhi!?..” and then going “c-cute” with some apprehension ;D

super> I’m organized lol I plan to finish this by the end of the month and have it ready in time for the con. I learned my lesson that with printers you gotta be early or you get screwed.

totali> I was thinking “ka..kawaii..” when i wrote this, which sadly doesn’t translate in the same way into English but if I write Kawaii it makes this doujin seem like some kind of weeaboo explosion xD
