admittedly I don't know who that last character is, so I can't get the joke (can someone explain?)
but great art style as always, so detailed, great aesthetics :D good job!
ps: I thought the joke was going to be about the Sonic movie lol
It's My Neighbour Totoro. I thought the same thing about the movie lol

I recognize Totoro and the spinning top gimmick from Sonic, but I never watched Totoro, so I still don't really get the joke. It's very well drawn though, good job either way.

I guess totoro decided to get high first? xD

No demerit to other collaborators, but you make the best comics, so much work in every corner, love your work!
Keep up!

Btw got allmost all studio ghibli movies, remastered bluray rips 10gb each, as a valuable thing to pass on...
Studio ponoc movies seem to be heading in the same direction.

I'd like to see you draw better. It is a lot harder than it looks even with a tenth as much detail
Sorry, dear Quantumcat, but your post needs to be moderated for bickering. :lol: Just joking. I agree with you, there's a lot of work in this (especially the first frame, amazing!). Of course, someone's not going to get the joke, if he doesn't know the reference. I didn't get it either until it was explained. Cultural backgrounds dictate how such a joke is perceived. But I appreciate it all the same.

You should watch My Neighbor Totoro. It's a great movie, well worth watching.
It's by Studio Ghibli, who also made Spirited Away which you might have heard about, that might be their most popular movie, also great.
Some backstory: Studio Ghibli have been making anime movies since the 70s, and are famous these days for making consistently great movies that anyone can enjoy, not just kids. The animation quality is high, the story is consistently great across their movies, and they are just plain enjoyable to watch.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
