Nuuuuuu, Kiku is becoming the cutest one in the party!
...Must draw Bob fanart to compensate... XD

Hot chocolate has clearly given him super powers.

Clearly Kiku has some awesome Matrix moves hidden up his sleeve. Wait, he's not wearing any sleeves.....

0.o Daaang, Kiku! Where've you been hiding THESE moves throughout the last one-and-a-half versions of the comic?

He looks very graceful. I have this sensation that I am watching someone who once took dancing lessons.

And, as always, greatly enjoy the subtitle of the page. XD Indeed, why SHOULD he wear that helmet? Clearly the world is against him covering up that amazing hair!

I think Dance is one of those obligatory classes of Rogue School. How else do they get so freakin' agile? Ballet, that's how!

...Now I'm imagining Kiku doing ballet... I think Ruffles would be pleased XD

PS: Totally forgot to mention that this page is AWESOME! ♥ Go Go Awesome Kiku~!

I love the fluidity in this page! Often in webcomics (and, I am compelled to add, mainstream comics) action scenes look very stiff and awkward, like stills from a movie. I also like the staging, it's pretty clear (to me at least Smile ) what Kiku is doing.

Glad you guys liked this page. :D It was certainly fun to draw.

...And I could totally picture Kiku in a ballet class.
Though I can't imagine him (or the instructors) being very happy about it. XD

Excellent. I guess grappling with the kitchen counter to figure out pose mechanics paid off!

Well, duh. That's why they're all spilling out. You ever try hiding something up a non-existent sleeve when you're upside down?

Did you practice the expressions too? Because they're spot-on. I particularly like the contrast between Henson's "Wait what's going on back there is he really do I really want to know?" and Kiku's little Zen one-with-the-motion smile in panel 4.

...I'm really tempted to try to summarize this strip with all those emoticons grinning at me there on the left. Must...resist!

Why on earth would you resist? I want to see this!

Also, Aja, the image of you grappling with the kitchen counter to figure out how to draw Kiku's mid-air ballet-kick-move amuses me greatly. It must have been hard to translate those movements from ground to anti-gravity! Unless you actually DO have secret ninja moves and simply haven't informed us. I wouldn't put this past you.
