War of the Forums

[Blademaster]

It's about time you started this up again.

NOW KEEP AT IT! (cracks whip) OR ELSE! NYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

...

Ahem. Good to see you back. ...SLAVE! ...Yeah...

[mr_pikachu]

Mikachu: Yeah, I've been lamenting this particular stopping point for awhile. It's not the most climactic of transitions; the only reason I stopped there was that it's SO DAMN HARD to get Orochimaru pics. Don't ask me why; it just is. Occasionally single-character pages are exciting, but I agree with you that this one isn't. Criticism accepted! ^^


CEB: Hehe. When is Jay not up to something evil?


Ada: A surprising number of people are interested in revenge against Fanfic. You'd think we were out to get them or something! Yes, in a sense Jay's resurrection is appropriate here; I just wish I could have found a more exciting way to continue that particular plotline.

And you've found the hidden Easter egg in that comment! With those percentages, though, a lot of them would have to be pornographic fanart thumbnails... @_@


Sike: I find the particular wording you chose quite funny; you'll soon see why. Does Jay's villainy know no bounds?


DS: I've been a little worried that people would start thinking that, especially with some of the suggestions around Fanfic that I should start "WotF part two." We're on part four already, people! And the gap between #184 and #185 is not going to be six months.


Blade: Your whip pales in comparison with my modstick. *brandishes it menacingly*


Bloodlust is an amazing thing. Once you get started, it's rather hard to stop.

#185: What do the region and sector codes mean? I'll let you figure out that one.

It looks as though the alarms at Fanfic HQ have sounded once more. With the moderators still reeling from the loss of their senior member, can they cope with yet another crisis?

Also, yes, I know, these last two pages took several months to complete. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find halfway-decent Orochimaru pictures online? I've honestly been shocked!

Jay is going more and more crazy. Now he's up to something against the whole universe!

Using Naruto plot is a double-edged or should I say triple-edged sword, by the way.

1) If you haven't read or watched Naruto enough, it brings spoilers. I didn't know Hokage dies before I read the part in this comic.
2) If you have read or watched Naruto enough, you may be bored becuase it's kinda repeating the plot.
3) Of course, you may also be delighted to see the great way this comic mixes Naruto's plot and TPM.

Mikachu: Insanity is fun!

Naruto plot? I'm not sure what you mean, actually. While this fic includes characters modeled after those from Naruto (Jay and Martin, for example), the plot has nothing to do with it (as far as I know, at least). If it seems like it's running parallel to what they did... expect things to change. After all, we're only just getting started.


Shonta: Actually, I wasn't really even trying to use a Naruto-based plot then. The events in that particular scene were sort of similar to what happened in the anime, so I strategically chose character designs to make that particular action scene easier to form.

If that's how people are seeing it, though, then maybe I need to look at my work and make sure it matches my vision of how things are supposed to develop. I don't want to duplicate something else, even unintentionally.

Working on the codes, huh? Good luck! You'll need it....


CEB: Heh heh... keep thinking!


DL: Agreement? What agreement? I signed nothing!

Nooooo... come back!


Gabi: Yes! It's back!

Hmm... no reply.


The wheels keep turning.

#186: I do hope the moderators haven't missed some important detail. After all, that would be bad!

Panel six was by far the biggest challenge of this page. It alone took me about two hours to complete. So much minute editing to do... sometimes being a perfectionist is a pain.

We're almost done with this mod meeting. I promise! Think of all this as the prologue before the action starts.

...You decide whether the "prologue" is this section of Book Four, or the last 180+ pages.

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

In fact, by Naruto plot, I meant only the arrangement Hokage VS Orochimaru and Martin's death. I have been posting inconsiderate opinions and incorrect information here at TPM lately. Perhaps it's here just that I want to be the first to reply, this is the fourth page in a row that's directly followed by my comment.

[Lune the Guardian]

Okay, I've been scared away from this before because I wasn't familiar with the Fanfic personas and I didn't want to keep reading while missing 80% of the references to TPM/Fanfic events/people. But I ran out of questions to ask in the trivia game, and hey, here I am.

I'd just like to thank you for the last (2?) hours that I spent reading all 186 pieces that you've posted so far. Oh, there were many awesome things that I wanted to talk about, but if I made a comment on everything I liked, I would probably break the post character limit. >_>

You're a genius, and your creativity and sense of humor never cease to amaze me. What more can I say I'm sure the appreciation value would've been even greater if I could have matched the persona personalities to their owners as I read along, but I can't do much about that. I'm going to keep reading, even though I know I'll miss a lot of the references. The characters and plot are amusing enough without having much background knowledge.

[EDIT]: I guess I should say something relevant to the story... Hm. My biggest impression? Martin was one heck of an awesome character. His will - hah. I love how he tormented Ada even though he was dead. What a badass. Oh, yes - infraction #2: flaming! There were a lot of things that made me laugh, but those panels made me totally lose it. Though I'll admit, I got confused about the part where Martin got stabbed because the monkey is Sarutobi's summon and I assumed it was his ally at first until I read properly. >_> I was looking all over the place for the guy that supposedly helped Jay, when he was lying right there. I suppose I should be glad that Bleach is the only other animé that I've seen whose characters you've used in this. I would totally impose assumptions on the scenes that you use otherwise. -_-; (Oh, and I apologize if that second-to-last sentence makes the grammar nazi in you twitch. Heh heh.)
