Deleted Scene: Delivery

"That's just prime..."

This has the energy of two guys in a makeshift hot air balloon that one of them realizes is rapidly deflating as he desperately tries to keep it airborne and the other just poses on heroically like he created the greatest thing since the wheel.

University 2-Page Comic piece featuring my Sona explaining the need to overcome perfection. Transcript below: Title: Overcoming Perfection [And what does that mean?] Panel 1: >"First things first, let me explain." Big pile o' words: "Stop trying so hard. I mean, don't stop trying altogether. Y'know what?" >"Got all that? Let me summarise." >"It's no secret that perfection is an impossible standard all artists strive for in their craft." Panel 2: >"Now, don't get me wrong." >"It's impressive, admirable even to rapidly produce art at a consistent rate every day." >"Even I could back in the peak of my art output." Panel 3: >"But I'm the end, you're only inviting burnout quicker." SFX: "Fwick!" Panel 4: >"Of course, finding a stable work/life balance is easier said than done." >"But even the most minute ripples can make waves in a change of work ethic." Panel 5: >"For instance, a consistent 100% is nothing short of a consistent feat." >"But even a consistent 75% or even 50% can go a long way in how you adapt your workflow."

University 2-Page Comic piece featuring my Sona explaining the need to overcome perfection. Transcript below: Panel 1: >"I remember a saying someone once told me." >"Perfect is good, but finished is better." Panel 2: >"This is a term that has stuck with me in my recent works." >"From going to this impossible standard, I instead admit who I am, which is being a human." >"Humans make some mistakes. A lot." >"And that's okay!" Panel 3: >"Believe me, I've had more than my fair share of trial and error." >"As finished is as "perfect" you are ever going to be." [ED: At your current stage!] Panel 4 >"So next time you find yourself in that familiar art slump, try thinking less like this:" Accompanying Panel [1]: >"Aw man, I hate drawing this part." >"I'm not sure I can pull it off." >And try to embrace your shortcomings in stride! Like exampled!" Accompanying Panel [2]: >"Alright, I've been meaning to practice this for a while." >"Let's see how I can make this part reflect my progress." Panel 5: >"I hope these ramblings from a reasonable and sane madman have offered some insight." >"Never stop drawing, and never stop failing!"

Cover for my Kickstarter backed comic, 犬鳴祭り "The Howling Festival" which was sold and tabled at MCM Comic Con 2025 as part of the Echophony Arts brand. It depicts three bipedal Kitsune foxes depicted in an uncanny lighting as they're holding various instruments as a ghastly flame hovers to reveal a set of jaws belonging to a monstrous assailant above.

First page of Inunaki Festival, depicting our protagonist, the boy [nicknamed Keisuke] as they recall entering the shrine to the forest. Transcript as follows. Panel 1 Keisuke: [Monologue] “I heard a rumor of a haunted forest, near the outskirts of the village.” Keisuke: [Monologue] “About hearing music coming from the old shrine deep inside.” Panel 2 Keisuke: [Monologue] “I remember the kids saying, ‘Those who enter the forest in search of the song- never return to speak of its melody.” Panel 3 Keisuke: [Monologue] “Impulsive in my age, I dared not believe in such tall tales.” Panel 4 [cont] “So I declared to them aloud.” Panel 5 Keisuke: [Aloud] “You’re all a bunch of liars!” [cont] “I’ll go to the forest and prove you all wrong for myself!” Keisuke: [Monologue] “I remember very little of what happened next.” Panel 6 [cont] “Except for the image of their stares burned into my mind.”

YouTube video by Nemesis Bloodryche I Ranked EVERY Episode of Game Theory

Made a funny lil cameo in @bloodryche.bsky.social ranking all of MatPat Game Theory

Now for the second part of the story: after the Scion of Erdrick reached level 30 and fought the Dragonlord’s true form, he landed a critical hit that cleaved off over HALF of the boss’s max HP and ended the fight right there. This captured that feeling.

A few months back I played the IOS port of 1 in anticipation of the HD remake and grinded to the level cap. I then got a friend to draw what that experience felt like when the Hero hit level 30.
