Perhaps instead of a syllabary of dogwhistles for you, yourself, to reflexively bark at instead try reading a little bit of what people have to say and get to know them on the most basic level

This would make sense if I was in any way involved with this person besides seeing their name in a video.

In other news, the sketches for all pages of this arc have been completed, and will be released by September at the latest. It's finally gonna be over, folks

The project you're referring to is the motion comic/audiobook that ultimatetailsgetstrolled AKA Puke Fukem took over from JazzFlight, not the actual Tails Gets Trolled comic.

Edited because I sounded too mad. I don't wanna have sex with my girl friend so I won't be so mad

First of all, the YouTube channel is a completely separate project from the comic itself.

More importantly, Hazencruz isn't a nazi or alt-right, he's just an edgy weeb.
The unfortunate name is based off this dude's last name from Yugioh.

Here's why I went with him:
In light of Aramek ghosting me over the last few years (no hard feelings), the original plan with the music video was to announce a casting call for Chapter 8. I wasn't looking forward to it for a number of reasons, since it would probably delay Chapter 8 another year and sound bad if I tried to rush it.

And then Hazencruz reached out to me and asked if he could voice the whole thing. And then he actually did it.
His voice is pretty much on the same level as Aramek, and it meant I could jump straight into editing and animating the chapters again without having to worry about the voice. The VA switch would also be less jarring than if I decided to go with multiple voice actors.

For the record, if he actually was a full on Nazi I obviously wouldn't work with him. I might disagree with him politically since he's right-leaning, but it really doesn't bug me since it lets me revive the series.

Nothing against you personally, but I would think in 2020 we'd know enough to realize there isn't much daylight between edgy post-ironic internet guy and right-wing Nazi shitbags. :geno:

Remember when that dude was literally named after a swastika, that's a pretty loving Nazi thing to do

oh it's okay he picked it because he modified a YGO character's name in the exact way that leaves ya named etc etc

Oooooooooooh!

Hazencruz's twitter feed is a constant stream of pro-Trump poo poo, Mike Cernovitch retweets, and bitching about SJWs.
The guy's a loving goblin.

Also it really cannot be overstated that he made his online username "swastika". Like sure he swapped out a letter and I'll take your word for it that he claims it's a modified Yugioh character's name, but uhhhhhh if a guy whose twitter was constant retweeting alt-right bullshit under the screen name "Svaztika" said oh lol yeah it's a funny misspelling of an anime character name I would still be pretty certain that person was a Nazi.

Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded.

That the unironic fans of Lazerbot's work are turning out to be either terrible people or, at best, morons, is hardly a surprise.

Hold on, maybe we're being duped, maybe the whole point of hiring baby hitler is so that we start trolling the youtube channel and help continue the legend.

Seriously though. Fire this guy and move on.

Is the eye monster getting telefragged? No clue if Coyote would survive that, or what happens if he's in the eye realm when the eye monster dies. Or maybe instead of telefragging they merge and become Eyeote.

that's how you know it's truly gone to its shonen roots. nothing matters but the spectacle of the individual panel. flow? coherency? articulation? the gently caress is all that?

This page is clearer than the last, at least. Coyote summons Demaro's monster and climbs inside. Then, Magma Garry's arms break off, so Bug Satan rushes at the book. The monster projectile vomits Coyote up and out of his book, and he makes it out, right as Bug Satan gets there.

Yeah that art style isn't good at conveying positioning information but all of this was simple enough that I thought it was very readable

Everyone wanting to emulate shonen manga style action needs to study, like, one/murata/itagaki/daromeon to learn how to loving do proper composition and flow in fights.

Ironically this is one of the things Lazerbot was actually good at. I agree it can be hard to tell what was going in in the last two pages, but that's the risk you take when multiple artists are working on something. Thankfully I think most of the chapter has been good in this regard

Anyway, new page



For those who haven't been reading the site updates, the story arc with Demaro will be finished in September with Lazerbot taking over art duties again afterwards. The first chapter has also been translated into Japanese, which you can read here.

Yeah, but not as many I don't think. You'd have to ask the guy who did the translation as my Japanese skills are pretty bad. I put the text into the comic and tried to make it as close to how it is in English, which looks pretty hosed up. Mainly involving punctuation and formatting

It's much more likely that TFT becomes the American equivalent to Chargeman Ken, an extravagantly bad anime that was referenced in thousands of memey music videos.
