I get the distinct feeling that Almond is going to prepare calamari after she gets out of that cage.

Edit: O, it was a Saturday update. I should check this comic more often.

200% funded on day one! I know it's going to slow down, but I'm curious how much she gets.

Wow. $500 tier already sold out.

25k in the first day, good for her. Also looks like she'll be making the books even better with the overfunding.

Edit: As for today's page. Something tells me Nightmare Knight isn't going to be happy.

Well, at the very least, we're getting a map in the books. Since it just creeped over 30k.

I really wonder what the 40k reward will be. The kickstarter certainly looks like it will get there at this rate. I also do hope the 1k tier donator doesn't cancel as we get further along.

So would saving a Queen be a step up on the hero scale from saving a princess?

I'm trying to figure out where Almond's at right now.

I'd say it would be a step up, but not as high on the list as saving a Magical Princess. Though Cucumber didn't really save anyone, so much as return her cellphoneRoyal Instrument of Summoning.

So the Kickstarter just past 35k. And the 45k incentive is something cool.

More legendary hero's should check in with their mothers during the quest. It's just being considerate, since parents do worry.

I think my favorite part of this update is Nautilus lounging in the background.

Edit: Wait a minute, is Bagel's cellphone a candybar?

Well. The kickstarter is over at $62,953. That leaves gigi with about 56k after kickstarter and amazon fees. I honestly didn't think she'd make over 55k after fees, that's really amazing.

Well, I finally got my soft-cover book. Took longer because I didn't realize it was shipping to the family's home and not where I'm currently living.

It looks really great, and the prints are a nice little bonus. Don't have a huge amount of time at the moment to look through it, but initial impression is good.



Grade A, would buy cute bunnyman book again.

Her tumblr and the extras in the book are the reason we even know about the ear types in the first place. In comic we haven't seen the last two.

Do the ears for the transition to the Melody kingdom count? Because that's in comic, though not a specific character.

I'm picturing him trying to get the speech recognition to work, only half the time it reverts to bomb-related commands and hangs up completely due to lack of a bomb. So he installs a bomb, and now the speech recognition doesn't hang any more. On to the next bug!

Ha ha ha. Oh man, I can see the bug report.
Problem Report:
User interface continues to hang on several simple commands. It continuously attempts to access various bomb related commands, before crashing. This version of hardware does not support these commands.

My gut says this might be what will happen. Maybe he'll somehow get trapped in a crystal or whatever by one of his henchmen (or another wild card character)

I'd wager on Cordelia if it were to go that route. She seems more into the ruling the world thing than Nightmare Knight. While he's the muscle, he's so clearly tired of this pantomime he's forced into.

In this case Legato's "inspired" writing might work out for people who want this play to end quickly.

I'm not convinced Noisemaster actually wants the blaster charged yet. He didn't seem very happy when Piano started flipping her poo poo earlier.

Ya, looking at that page with what we know now. Before it sounded like he was just annoyed with her screaming, but the "MMMMM" sound in the background and his dialogue makes sense if it charges when she screams, and he told her as such.
