(I swear I will make an avatar one of these days I'm sorry I suck)

Do you have a particular character, scene, or reoccurring gag you favor? I'm a fair hand at making animated avatars out of comics, and I wouldn't mind trying throw one together in thanks for all this free entertainment.

That is, if we're looking for something cute.

If we're looking for something true?

Saw this in a Barnes & Noble the other day, and goddamn that old art. And I honestly completely forgot that this whole thing was him being bad at lying. Now he does it basically professionally.

Same here, it got a bit dinged up in transit, but eh, not going to bother with returns when it's a slightly creased cover.

Mine too!! The old art is really strange to get used to, especially when they're making surprised faces -- the eyes look oddly squinched-up somehow, despite being ordinary anime-big (as opposed to ginormous as the style would later become). It's still pretty nice and fun to have on my shelf, and it's a series I'm happy to start collecting volumes of so I can reread it.

It's not like Asahi got any better at lying or putting up a poker-face, he just surrounded himself entirely with people who are too cute and dumb to see through his obvious lies.

Tarage

Just a little bwaka.
The thing about him lying is that he still sucks at it. He's CONSTANTLY tsukkomiing everyone. It's just that the situations are so insane that he doesn't have time to lie. All he can do is react. The chapters when he does have to try to keep a secret, he still can't.

As for the avatar stuff, I actually used Deskpire as my prettyanon profile pic. I was considering using frame three from the left 4koma, but I'm still mulling it over. http://bato.to/reader#ecb38dc677a5a544_2

Or if the uploader wants to take it down. In this case, since Underdog doesn't do licenced manga, they probably asked for them to be removed.

Also much thanks to Agronox and Cryophage for the avatar. It's great.

Well, she saw a potential rival to Kuromine's affections and had to prove herself better. Little self-esteem issue there. (Gee, wonder where she got that from.) It's also why she gets so worked up when Shiho comes pervertin' around.

Also, hey, independent confirmation that Sakurada really is a teenager.
