Panel 1: Ehh, bit too much text in this particular panel, though I’m okay with the amount of dialogue in the page as a whole. (Two Demonwolf balloons would be text enough; three linked balloons like we see here represents just too dang much dialogue.)

Panel 7: Brace yourselves for a yet another vol.7 abrupt scene change, webcomic readers, as tomorrow the narrative jumps back to the “real-time” Ayakami warehouse scene last seen 43 pages ago. (As mentioned earlier, it will theoretically become clear to the reader that everything else in this volume is technically a flashback.)

Gotta admit that this volume’s radically shuffled timeframe is seriously incompatible with day-by-day serialization; then again, as I’ve noted on many occasions, this series was never intended to be consumed on such a protracted and drawn-out manner.

Today’s Patreon update: We’re very likely continuing serialization of the Twitter-format prose experiment I Am Empowered, which tells heretofore untold tales of Emp’s earliest misadventures from her first-person POV.
