52F - King of the Dogs: TBA

Blog Post


Hello, this is SIU. The afterword image this week is the Mr. Doggo King, how befitting (...) [TN: SIU puns here, I am not translating that] hehe

​

Anyway, we have more lore about the Houndborn. From a certain perspective, this feels a side step from the narrative to come, but having Yama and the Houndborn appear, and the other characters tagging alone gives the story a lot of volume, deceivingly so. When the narrative has less volume, it's easier to take these side steps, but it get's harder to manage at this size.

​

Khun's fight I went through pretty quickly. It's less so that Khun got the ability of the Firefish, but more like he has to bear it now. I definitely wanted to give the impression that this could be an issue later on this chapter, but since this arc doesn't revolve around Khun, so the story ended up being more about this ability instead.

​

Going back over to Baam and Doom, we have Baam sneak a peak into Doom's past. Looking at the narrative right now, the Lo Po Bia family looks like it will become enemies to Baam ^^;; But you don't know what will happen in the future until you get there, you know?

​

In the last scene, we finally see the Elder and Yama stand in one spot. We don't know what will happen, but who wins here most likely will hold the keys to the fate of the cage. That fate shall play out more next week.

​

The weather is getting cooler at night again. It's not too cold, but I am sensitive whenever the seasons are changing, so I already shiver sometimes ^^;

​On a side note: I am now reaching the age of 35, I'm already thinking about how maybe I'm only putting up an image of understanding those younger than me these days. I do have a lot of student readers, you know. I must have improved more from experience from me of the past, but in the process I think I may have become more conservative-minded. Am I gonna become the grumpy old guy like this, I wonder sometimes ^^; I guess because of this, whenever I see those who stand in the heat these days, I feel like cheering them on. A moment to not worry about anything but self-expression... that's something a human life needs. I cheer you all on too.

​

Well then, I will come back next week with our angry Dog King Yama!

Everyone stay happy and have a healthy week

Thank you!!
