Popularity Chapter 2
Added 2025-10-26 14:00:00 +0000 UTC(Updated 10/26/25)
Finally done! Sorry, this took forever. The gym took over my life for a while, and I'm still trying to rebalance my schedule. I'm just glad to finally move on from this story that has been a work in progress for way too long. The more I worked on it and reread it, the more I felt that it just wasn't good enough... but I really want to move on to the newer stuff!
Hopefully, newer story processes won't take as long by skipping the rough sketching stage and going straight to clean line art from the draft. That way, I won't need to draw the same thing twice. I really need to learn to simplify things and skip what's unnecessary...
I know there's not much to comment on, but I love receiving your thoughts and feedback in the comment section. I always greatly appreciate your continued patience and support, thank you!
------------------------------------------
Sorry for all the delay, not completely done but I'm just glad to have something I can post now. Not particularly happy with how this turned out probably because I'm working on something old that I've gotten too used to seeing. Ahh... I want this to be done soon so I can move on to something new...
Also wanted to see how you guys would think about the manga black and white version for less important scenes in order to reduce work time?

2025-10-31 02:03:20 +0000 UTCThis is great. If the color pages are slowing you down, you should do more black and white pages and occasional color ones. Color is nice, but it doesn't make a *huge* difference if we have 3/4 of it black and white

Is there any chance there might be an updated summer illustration pic of Aki and Aku with their new looks?

2025-10-28 22:09:09 +0000 UTCThe quality of the art for this is absolutely through the roof, you should take so much pride in this! I hope you take a chance to give yourself some well deserved R&R before moving onto your next project. I also can't wait to see what brand new thing you come up with after so long!

2025-10-12 21:16:11 +0000 UTCnever considered that the colour would make it so much easier to tell who's in charge and makes it funny when they think they can't stop

2025-10-05 19:14:54 +0000 UTCAbsolutely amazing - can’t wait for the next part!

2025-09-02 04:05:47 +0000 UTCYesss, the series that drew me in is finally continuing!

2025-09-01 20:42:32 +0000 UTCLooks great! Definitely worth the wait, Popularity's turned into one of my favorite manga of yours. I think that black and white for longer manga to reduce work load, and colored paes for the more important scenes is just fine.
Doge
2025-08-31 15:19:36 +0000 UTCI agree with the others! What is distinctive about your art comes through especially in the linework, even at the very early, rough stages.

2025-08-31 04:00:01 +0000 UTCI think anyone who reads a lot of doujin/hentai is used to black and white with color pages being a neat bonus when they do happen. So sticking with primarily black and white and only coloring important scenes is a great compromise in my book to say time and energy. We appreciate whatever you do, though!
Mojack
2025-08-31 03:57:41 +0000 UTCBlack and white on less important scenes are best, you can always make a full color version later if you feel like it, but initially only having colored scenes on important parts is good

2025-08-31 01:26:19 +0000 UTCOmg this is awesome!!!
MemoMii
2025-08-31 01:21:21 +0000 UTCLove the colouring can’t wait for more🔥 Also colouring on important scenes is good and if it saves time not colouring on non important scenes I’m all for it
SJ
2025-08-30 23:43:35 +0000 UTCThe black and white for less important scenes works great! Especially if it means we'll get more comics! Maybe you can do what Dross does and use a minimal color palette that's only a few colors.
James YoullNeverKnow
2025-08-30 19:39:43 +0000 UTCBlack and white is great too. The most important part imo is the story and art. So I'm just as happy with any amount of color vs black and white.

2025-08-30 19:13:35 +0000 UTCSorry guys next part will probably also have colors just been a bit hectic at my day job so im a little behind. Looks great so far tho.

2025-08-30 19:07:33 +0000 UTCHaving the important scenes be colour is an amazing change

2025-08-30 18:54:04 +0000 UTCGreat update I like the black and white too
Cavall
2025-08-30 18:50:44 +0000 UTCI always prefered black and white to colour manga anyway and this is absolutely gorgeous!
