This is an interesting relationship Isabel and her grandfather have. I assume the "you did that on purpose" was her realizing that his spoken prediction caused her to completely throw away the fight.

I mean, counting your moves is pretty brazen, all your opponent needs to do is evade, and let you overextend.

"phphphphphphpht"? this is what you're going with?

you sure?
It usually takes about 10 volumes of the hot-headed protagonist trying to solve problems by hitting them with their face before the mentor figure's lesson sink in.

"C...could it be? I might have to think when I fight? Impossible! Thinking is for stupid people! Master, why do you speak in riddles?"
"Jesus christ kid, just... ugh, you know what, go get your rear end kicked by your cool-headed rival a couple more times and get back to me."

AWFUL SOMETHING

That deer lady is coming back and she is totally hooking up with Isaac.

It is going to be gross and freakyweird and not just because of the bestiality thing.

That said I do kind of wonder what sort of powers she would confer on someone with a suitably pink aura.

This latest page has a spiky-haired scarred karate lady pinning someone with her chin and blasting her with a single ki blast from her index finger. There is nothing animer.

Well, that's some more information about Isabel. Though Isabel's statement about her father seems to imply he's still alive. And panel 10's layout confused me for a moment. Thought Isabel had teleported from the lawn to porch all of a sudden.

And I love random gasping face in the background there.

I still don't understand that panel. It looks like she's in 2 places at once.

I think it's just a close-up. It's just not indicated very well, so it's a bit confusing.

Isaac spontaneously goes into an anime freeze frame on the next page.

Are you combining Keith David and Kevin Michael Richardson? If so, that's one hell of an actor you just made up.

Yeah I meant Kevin. Specifically the voice he used for the principal in American Dad/an old earthbender in Avatar.

I'm not sure how one of the panels slipped out of the comic and ended up as the comment, but the original, unadulterated version of the update is pretty special.

One mentor's a cryptic old man who may or may not resent her, the other is a massive dork. She's caught between a Rick and a hard place.

Mr. Spender just read an anime book on how to be a good mentor to children, and it just doesn't work without the emotional detachment or the aura of mystery. Or being in an anime.

But at least he calmed down Isabella a bit.

I'd say he diffused the situation nicely. Everyone always stops what they were doing to look at a massive dork.

I'd almost say that's giving Spender too much credit.

But I know that one day, he'll say that's exactly what he's been doing. And then someone will call him out with "you're just saying that to excuse how much of a dweeb you are, aren't you?"

Well now, I didn't say he did it intentionally now did I.

The line between being a dweeb and distracting people by acting like a dweeb doesn't exist.
