I was sorely tempted to put "B*TCH!" after "clicks fear Pie-san", but I'm trying to write comics now that are appropriate for (almost) all ages. P: So cursing for the sake of covering up for a lack of comedic value is not allowed anymore.

"A person who could choke on mochi" = a spacy person you would worry about.

Also, Shin and Lolli-chan [link] are the "opposite-gender-version" of myself and Pie-san, respectively. I just realized that. (Sorry for making her so scary looking! DX)

The "Social Awkwardness" comic sounded funnier in my head. DX;; On paper I explained it so badly it looks like something written by a half-fluent foreigner.

Hikkikomori=social recluse (half the reason why I used it was to draw Shin with stubble )

As for that random character over there... He was something I started doodling arbitrarily, without realizing that I was drawing him on my half-finished comic. (The paper was just poking out of my folder, so...)

But yeah, he is an actual character of mine. You probably won't ever see him again, though. (But who knows? Maybe eventually I'll end up having revealed my entire cast on the internet.) He's not a chemist, but I was drawing this in Chemistry, so I randomly put a lab coat/goggles on him. He's a smart guy, so it fits. D:

btw, he's not black. xD His skin is more like this color: [link]

I apologize for the crappiness. I promise that future comics will be of better quality. DX
