Does she care? Or is she saving him for last so she can really savor bashing him with the ball in front of everyone?

>>91300317
One day I'll get those, my friend. One day.

I've only been following the updates for a few weeks and I'm vividly reminded of why I lost my tolerance for reading long-form comics one page at a time.

>>91300329
That is still caring, anon. Hate is just another form of love.

>>91300321
Unfortunately yes. She tried setting up a recap chapter in th beginning of Volume 2 but it kind of just scratches the surface of the plot.

>>91300350
At this rate it's more likely there'd be 3 "mikea shit" getting trips in a row

>>91300321
Volume 2 starts with a quick and dirty recap but that's kind of shit.

As an alternative you could skim through and skip anything that looks like mid-2000s weeaboo comedy. There won't be much left if you do that.

>>91300375
Yeah I noticed. I started volume 2 and Mike is already sick of Lucy. How can I care about this situation if I haven't seen their friendship? Currently at chapter 17 now but the art is really bad.

Well, great, she's acting like a cliche tsundere again. This sure is a fascinating development.

>>91300394
I have all the time in the world. In the end, Mike is right.

>>91300403
If you skip weeaboo shit nowadays there'd still be pages getting nuked.

It didn't always be like this.

>>91300406
Honestly not even volume 1 really demonstrates them being friends and less that everyone expects them to be lovers and is shocked when Mike gets a different girlfriend.

>>91300429
That's dictator talk, leave that to Abbey Although Mike is even worse than him

>>91300576
inb4 she develops a kink for her being degraded and told to kill herself.

>>91300644
Taeshi saves that for the BCI comics, why give for free what you know people will pay for?

>>91300221

>>91300893
It's just blue blur. :^)

>>91300221
>she cares

That's just what Taeshi wants you to think before she beams Mike in the face and then when she goes to help him up she whispers "fucking kill yourself." And the Mike pussies out and runs away saying he "has to use the restroom."

Sexual tension over dodgeball? Is this middle school?

>>91300221
I'd kind of like to see her prolong the agony now, deliberately missing him time and time again until he breaks down begging her to finish him off.

>>91300638
She avoided slamming him with the ball deredere.

Or maybe she's just trying to avoid as much contact as she can.

So I would say so far this chapter has been 10% plot progression, and 90% filler. So let's end it and get to the party

>>91300850
I'm not the same guy, but why did they go from looking like young adults to chibi?

Eh, there's been worse.

>>91301162
She did, even through it was completely half arsed.

>>91301162
Well, yeah, there was three years of mostly nothing.

>Lucy is an athletic badass who makes all the boys go dokidoki
Wow, that's one hell of a throwback. She hasn't been like that since volume 1.

>>91300949
That's still caring. To "not care" is not even "ignoring". That's still an action you consciently do.
"Not caring" means simply not feeling, doing or even thinking about something.
And believe me, nothing would be more crushing for Mike than Lucy not caring about him and it isn't the case.

>>91301227

This is not how it works. Mike commented before that the letters are pretty much monthly
Sandy has a really weird concept of bf/gf if you ask me, she makes it sound it was obvious they were in a relationship and it wasn't.

>>91301063
Taeshi really went off the deep end with putting effort into the art. Sure, the proportions and perspective may be off sometimes, but during the watercolour era, she held herself to a schedule of at least a full page a day. That included sketching, inking, painting and dialogue on oversized paper. She's said before that she always feels like she doesn't do enough, and the strain of making pages like that must have caught up to her.

I remember Bagman exploring ways to make the art easier on her, going so far as to consider enlisting an artist friend of theirs to help with backgrounds or something, but in the end, simplifying the character models and returning to digital won out. Taeshi always fretted about not having enough buffer, so I guess that's why, since it seems a large buffer puts her mind at ease.

I don't have a problem with the art now that she's adjusted the chibi stuff a bit, but I do feel like there's too many filler scenes now. Maybe it was a good thing for the story that her art took so long before. That, and Suitcase should probably get more intimate with writing; I always felt that chapters always flowed better and informed more concisely than when he just did proofreading and editing.

>>91301227
she wasn't even that much of an athletic badass back then

>>91301677
She singlehandedly won the volleyball game at the pep rally.

>>91300221
>Mike versus the whole other team
>it's just Lucy putting forward some passive-agressive metaphor

That said if the whole super reflexes think kicks in again and it ends up just him vs Lucy we might get some interesting answers about where they stand.

>>91301713
Wait, I remembered that wrong.

>>91301633
Watercolors were time-wasting bullshit. She has no excuse for not improving her fundamentals now.

>>91301677
>>91301713
And she damn near beat up a fully grown man at the age of 13 while being small for her age.

>>91301791

Alejandro will kill one of them.

>>91301822
She almost beat him herself before that. But then the tables turned and none of that mattered just like in my Japanese animes

This is a seldom-heard lesson; just because you make yourself busy doesn't mean you're doing something worthwhile.

>>91301940
Augustus need to live to save his family.

>>91301968
His parents are total nothings. Even in that non-canon side comic they were just a "violently dysfunctional poverty couple" stereotype.

>>91301920
Sue will sadly never be relevant. Taeshi has no idea what to do with her for some reason.

Baggage Boy can't write story or fact check worth shit.

He should stick to spelling only, since that's something his autistic head can actually grasp

And the chibi still looks bad just like the first day it was introduced, but now it's going full force with weeb imagery too (the way Jordan begged Linkin Park cat for help with homework and Paulo's heart going doki doki for Daisy as recent examples), so it has somehow managed to become even worse.

And I find it funny that it's supposedly done to save time and energy, and yet they do other stuff like patreon circle jerking instead of not ruining the story more and more, gotta make easy dolla i guess.

Worst part is I could deal with it going all digital, but it's the hacky huge head proportions and even worse surroundings dimensioning ontop of the weeaboo regression that just throws me off.

>>91302034
I mean, just look at Kizuna

>>91302034
She could at least have some facetime to try to convince us she's actually friends with these people. That's hard to swallow as it is.

>>91302034
What do you mean, acting as a support blanket for Lucy is a full time job.

>>91302052
>Baggage Boy can't write story or fact check worth shit.

Him replacing an SAT question Taeshi took the trouble to look up with grade-school math was hilarious.

The only person she seems to like is Lucy.

Maybe she's a gay. That would make the story much better, right?

>>91302034
Probably because Sue's irrelevancy has reached meme status at this point.

I know her character description is basically "doesn't do drama" in a comic where drama is the focal point but I don't think that's a good excuse to have her sidelined. If anything, you'd figure that would be a fun premise to run with.

Just fucking put her in a tense situation where she would feel morally conflicted from disengaging away from and it basically writes itself. All drama doesn't have to revolve around love triangles.

>>91302356
She's a looney leftist with zero self-doubt, they established this during the debate chapter. Of course she'd support Lucy (dysfunctional but female) by throwing Mike (mostly well-adjusted and male) under a bus.

At least they aren't paid for not doing anything.

>>91302436
I slightly like that there was people with shallow crushes that don't amount to anything (Stacey [literally who?] as well), although it does add up to Mike being a harem anime lead and it hasn't done anything interesting with the idea like it did with the tsundere uguu idea (by upending it).

>>91302491
thank you for reminding me how god awful yashi was

>>91302449
It ends up with her being a plot device who only shows up when she has a very definite purpose, or to fake the same. She's there to comfort Lucy when Mike rejects her (although she runs to Paulo's dick instead in the next chapter) or try to grill Mike about what he said to Lucy before she vanished.

>>91302526
I want so hard for her and the stupid hedgehog to get btfo at some point.

>>91302583
why are mike's friends all shitty minus daisy

>>91302629
Because they're actually Lucy's friends minus Daisy.

Why everyone is orbiting around such a repulsive person is a mystery, except that she's good-looking I guess.

>>91300221
Is that devil cat son?

Lucy's sideburns are really long these days.

>>91302629
Taeshi can't write non-shitty characters for very long. That guy from aculpoco was the one exception and even he was over-concerned with Lucy for no good reason.

>>91302308
That and being rabid Apple worshippers is the cherry topping on that.

>>9130378?
Suuuure...if if this was shadow the hedgehog...and he kept picking the dark path.

Remember when Lucy was invited to Tess' christmas party, made herself hard to get by saying to everyone she wouldn't go just to get attention, went, ate her food, drank her drinks and punched her?

Why does anyone likes her, again?

>>91304067
i guess paulucy is actually a prospect as well, just gotta get him past the augustus and lucy being friends thing gonna be mad if daisy doesn't go out of her way to help mike when he eventually gets completely shat on by lucy when he tries to talk shit out with her or by sandy when the stress in their relationship reaches a peak and they have a fight/break up.

Unless Paulo is a result of infidelity she's pretty shit for abandoning her kid. Either way, it's a destroyed relationship regardless of who fucked it up.

Arguably it would only be worthwhile if he did have people who would try and pull him out. Like his friends proving they actually are his friends.

>>91304121
>that would make everyone involved unhappy.
So? It's not their job to make others happy.

>>91304081

I don't want that. I just want him to atone for his sins and reconcile with Lucy.

Unless her experience with Abbey beating up Paulo makes her realize she won't let her friends be picked on, and Mike's most likely aggressive attempt to talk things out makes Daisy side with Lucy.

>>91304239
The only thing that might make guilt trip mode Mike angry is if nuLucy made it clear she's trying to hurt him. He didn't get put off she's ignoring him or hanging out with Augustus. He blames himself for what happened so of course he won't flip out.

>>91304385
woah there i'm not into waifus or husbandos. Not taking this stuff nowhere that seriously.

Lucy's most effective way to hurt Mike is not hate and even not ignore him.
This is it:
>>91301275

>>91304340
Going way over the line with his lashout, and after Lucy already apologized and tried to keep the distance like he wanted.
btw I'm of the opinion that he didn't actually hate her, but was only mad at her and said things he didn't actually think.

>>91304407
Why? Helping Augustus is maybe one of the few non-selfish things she's done in this comic.

So basically being mean a single time to someone who was mean through most of the comic? Please. She was lucky he didn't deck her in the face.

>>91304480
she tried him badly outside of the earlier anime chapters and really, how the fuck are we even suppose to recall events back then when we can just refer to it being full of anime tropes

>>91304370
I take this in Mike's favor, actually. It's clearly painful for him but he says it anyway. He's not spazing out in the heat of the moment; he really does feel that way after years of being her emotional crutch and only getting bullshit in return.

Not that it wasn't a mistake to flip out like this, but at least it was the truth.

>>91304463
But it's actually her fault anon. When you act like a jerk people will treat you like one.

>>91304463
Mike only gets upset when he feels taken advantage of. He has a stronger chance of blowing up on Sandy than at Lucy at this point, you autist.

No matter the intention, that was a incredibly dickish lowblow that he's still getting off easily from.

Besides, we all know that Paulo has a thing for the dick now.

>>91304611
if you're talking specifically that everyone would follow him and leave her, it's more his hate towards the fact that the exact opposite always happens, with everyone taking lucy's side, and would likely be the thing that would happen if he left. he basically can't win whenever the two sides of drama are himself and lucy, outside daisy always taking his side. it's a low blow, but it's something he's always had to deal with and had to get off his chest, a little bit digging the knife too deep in lucy's personality.

>>91304611
>destroyed her trust in everything and everyone
>considering he was the only person she trusted,
So he destroyed her trust in everyone, because she just actually trusted in a single dude (which she was a prick). Biggie loss, fuck her then.

>>91304611
She used him for years and he saw her as trying to do the same while worming her way back into his life after everything. You act like he thought she had a shred of sincerity to her.

we don't know if he wanted to apologize. Besides saying sorry doesn't fix everything even if it wasn't all his fault.

>>91305196
he just wanted to talk, since that was the option he gave to her when they talked after the play. which, by the way, she said it would be great back then

>>91305152
>>91304981
She was answering to Augustus's question, not talking to Mike. She said she'd rather try kill herself than "be all lovey dovey" with Mike, which is a completely reasonable choice given what happened last time she was nice to him.

>>91305109
She was mostly nice through.

Call me back when she beats him up.

>>91305152
What meme? Really not seeing why he should care what she says when he's not her security blanket anymore. Besides...he did say she should just die before

>>91305161
>>91305182
Mary Sues "qualities" don't just stop to being an overtly nice person, you know?
Early chapters Lucy is a prime example of a mary sue, even though she was always a tsundere bitch.

>>91305196
>we don't know if he wanted to apologize.
If not for apologize, what would it be? 'Hi Lucy, want to play games later?'

>>91305196
He had no idea of what to say but he sure wanted to say something nice.
Apologizing doesn't fix anything but it shows your intentions.

Honestly, Lucy doesn't even need to accept his apologies, she is not obligated to. But she could be a nice person and acknowledged it and go on with her life (different from accepting).
Instead she decided to be a turbo bitch

>>91305231
She knew he could hear her.

>>91305249
>>91305267
You two are missing the point. I'm not saying Lucy should forgive him. I'm saying she should forget him. Guilt tripping is not forgeting, on the contrary

>>91305231
First, she deliberately answered to Mike hear. Augustus even overshadowed it.

Second, she was nice? I laffin. Did you forget that December started when she forced into his phone?

>>91305298
>She knew he could hear her.
Did she? Most of the time Mike doesn't remember Lucy's deaf ear, it's completely possible that she forgot about his super hearing

>>91305196
There are no other reasonable options and it doesn't matter because he's trying and then the ball is in Lucy's court. Frankly Mike would be better off ignoring her back but whoops it turns out he's not the asshole like you idiots love to demonize.

>>91305277
Probably try to ease his way back in...likely wouldn't have ended well considering he has lucy based ptsd going by that dodge ball hallucination. He could snap on her at any moment if he enters pissed off mode.

>>91305273
>Mary Sues "qualities" don't just stop to being an overtly nice person, you know?
So you hate people who are good at things? Very petty of you then anon.

>>91305319
Well you raise a good point, there's no way to know for sure but I would bet she knew.

>>91305231
why the fuck would she say that knowing fully well that he could here it. she coulda said anything else, but she specifically picked the thing that would hurt the most

>>91305319
>Did she?
Not him, but she lived with him through years. And different from Mike Lucy was obsessed about him.

>>91305045
Fair enough. But if you respond abuse with telling someone to fuck off and die...

Don't be surprised when they want nothing to do with you anymore.

Agreed. Let Lucy go and let Mike have his waifu. For as long as he can hold onto her...

That's just about when "December" ENDED. She left the house with her puke bag and did the rest of the essay by herself just so she could get away from Mike.

>>91305399
Which doesn't change the phrased it in a way like it was addressed to Mike.

And he asked her to sternly leave. She didn't go 'did something bad happen', she snarked back and demanded to know what it was. Of course it would go bad, considerating Mike had made clear before he was almost at his limit.

>the Nth argument over something that happened in the comic four years ago
Moggy please.

>>91305431
>Then maybe he should avoid approaching her.
What does this have to do with the conversation? I was replying it's obvious Mike came to apologize, because anything else would be stupid. Please don't go randomly jumping into things.

>>91305388
No such implication, anon. She'd best fuck off after for both their sakes.

>>91305121
Just as you can't make up for years of abuse with an apology, you can't make up for completely cutting off ties and telling someone they're a parasite and that you hate them and no one else will ever love them with an apology.

>>91305451

Don't apologize when she just came back. Wait a while before poking the flaming hornets nest or not at all

>>91305460
>Which doesn't change the phrased it in a way like it was addressed to Mike.
It doesn't look that way at all, though. Augustud hit a soft spot for Lucy, and she answered in a way that would make it clear that she didn't want to go over that again.
>And he asked her to sternly leave.
They were having fun together and Mike suddenly turned from happy to dead stare mode.

She's going to yell at him to stop pussying out, then he'll man up and bring it. Turns out Lucy just wanted Mike to stop sulking before talking to him again.

>>91305545
What he believes and what is true are two different things anon.
Just as Lucy had to come to terms with living without Mike, Mike now must come to terms with living without Lucy. And possibly soon, without Sandy. Let's see how he handles that.

>>91305629
i don't think it's him being dumb, it's more his mind is scrambled as fuck atm

>>91305513
>it'd be nice to try and make up yeah let's do that
>oh gawd now I'll never get the chance to make that happen
>time to suicide
>one timeskip later she's back to being an ultra bitch

Lucy deserves no sympathy, let alone her cult of retards hanging around here

>They were having fun together and Mike suddenly turned from happy to dead stare mode.
Forgot the rest. She didn't snark at him, she wanted to know why he wanted her to go, which is a pretty reasonable request.

>yfw Lucy is Rukia and Mike is Ichigo

>And possibly soon, without Sandy. Let's see how he handles that.
please bcb god, wherever you are, make >>91304356 happen

>>91305637
>Sees Mike
>Throws an easy ball at him
>He catches it easily
>She walks off the court
>He goes to say good game
>She just stares through him and walks away
He no longer exists for her.

>>91305664
Lucyfags are spiteful little bitches, thanks for confirming.

>>91305716
If he no longer existed she would throw the ball the same way she did with everyone else.

>>91305637
You saying she wants him assmad again?

Because Mike apparently only has two modes: numale Betamax and immensely furious.

Cue wild hatesex when bitchqueen Lucy challenges Mike in angry mode

>>91305716
She purposely saved him for last, so she at least acknowledges his presence. The question is, how will it go from here.

>>91305684
And yet Mike is the one whose upset.
He got what he wanted. She fucked off and now they're not friends anymore. Just like he wanted. Why blame Lucy for him giving him what he wanted?

>>91305684
>ultra bitch
>has no issues with anybody in the group and just wants to avoid mike

Call her an ultra bitch when she actually acts like one.

>>91305814
she used her suicide attempt to hurt a guy
