Welp, extra page was removed from DA at least, so maybe something happens wednesday eh? See ya losers then

>>251486 How many times has Saiya insisted "it's fine" since this started? I'm hoping that Stacy or Tessa goes off on her in front of everyone. Tessa could even just admit ro everyone that she gained weight for Saiya's affection and that Saiya is a perverted little gremlin but that would actually lead towards resolution so it won't happen

😏

god why dont they just speed things up already

>>251486 Tessa is so fucking ugly with those wings. That was literally the only redeeming thing about her character; that she was hot. We’ve still got Aika, but Kip barely focuses on her.

>>251530 Also literally why is Tessa annoyed? What did she think would happen? She spent more than half of the comic hiding it because she knew her fans would hate it. I can’t feel bad for her at all

Funny how Kip deleted the accidental page on deviantart just to upload it on Sunday anyway.

>>251486 >>251488 The post-fat society setting means nothing

>>251525 Don't lie, Yu Narukami, you absolutely would do her.

>>251525 please show more of the 2nd girl in the bottom.

got bored and made some edits on how Tessa could deal with her wings. non make much sense tho.

>>251602 That first one is pretty tasteful. Wouldn't be surprised if such an accessory appears in the comic.

It’s not even that these events shouldn’t be happening, after all it is a drama. I’m personally finding the tension and release of good storytelling keeps falling flat. We have the slow build up where very little is happening but it’s setting up the exciting moments then we get to the release (in this case where Tessa turns up with dishevelled feathers) and it’s just rug pulled with all momentum gone.

>>251612 Exactly what I was complaining about back in >> 251196. This could have been an interesting dramatic moment in the story and for Kip's comics as a whole - someone losing all of their head feathers catastophically - but Kip ultimately got cold feet on the idea and it subsequently fizzled. This reminds me of The Vomit Scene That Never Was - the panels and pages devoted to Tessa's aftermath of the eating contest with Aika and how it blatantly was building up to an explosive crescendo which, again, just fizzled out and nothing came of it. Would the comic have been improved by such a gross-out scene or did I personally want to see Tessa spectacularly puking? Not necessarily, but it would have conveyed that it was meaningful to Kip and that in turn would be imparted to the reader. That ultimately he had decided to commit to it with his whole chest. The actual outcome was safer, sure, but it sure was a whimper instead of a bang. I don't know if it's just rushing through with ideas that are poorly realised and simply not thinking things through, or if Kip gets shouted down from external sources. Either way, the lack of meaningful conviction in the story just harms the story overall making it toothless and insipid. Authors shouldn't be compromising on their ideas - keep or cut. Halfway houses are the worst of both worlds and please no one.

>>251620 Exactly this if I’m reading drama I’d rather see a genuine payoff than a half way house. Maybe the solution would be a path A, path B? It would probably be a healthier way to drag out the comics, appeal to fans and self fulfilment needs from Kip.

>>251664 I feel that would be horrible, i hate the few manga artist that did that, in trying to please every crowd you just take all the weight and importance of a canon definitive route. There has to be winners and losers.

>>251531 That right there is the stand out issue. Kip should unleash the dark power sealed within his right arm that he manages to restraint half the time, that ungodly power that fuels his humiliation fetish. Channel that humiliation through Tessa once more, continue her willing self destruction for pleasure. Have her getting off on watching her social standing fall further and further. 600 pages of treading the line of normie tedium. It's been far too long, It's time to explode.

>>251681 >Gushing Image Lmao Yeah. I agree. The drama falls very flat here. Kip needs to commit to the anti-fat stuff and actually have drawbacks to what just happened.

>>251681 I honestly wouldn’t be interested in seeing this, but it’s way better than what we have right now. Because presently, it just seems like Tessa wanted everyone to fall heels over head for her - Mary sue style. Which again, makes no sense since she knew everyone would hate it. >>251693 >>251620 >>251612 What I’m getting is that everyone agrees that Kip has a HUGE commitment issue when it comes to giving his characters consequences. Like, he wants high stakes, huge drama, but doesn’t want the consequence, or build up that makes those things high risk. Kip literally has perfect world building at his disposal. Fat fetish comics set in an anti fat/post fat society? Great! But we haven’t seen any of this other than random crowds appearing out of nowhere while gawking, and one singular character that actually shows hate against being fat (Stacy). For example, why are the classmates calm about this? I mean shit, even in real life people would act more negatively. Not even one insult, or disgusted look? Like tf?

>>251737 Look to >>250910 Kip does not do the post-fat society part any justice. Stacy doesn't even mind fatness herself. She doesn't like it with Tessa because if hurts the business. cannot begin to express how mad I am that it becomes less meaningful each comic. You could create so many interesting scenes and problems just by the idea of overwight characters existing in a world where being fat is even more taboo than it is now. The most that happens is shocked looks and passing glaces. But just like the feathers, it's more an iconography thing than anything else. Tessa's classmates don't even show her any signs of disgust, just "Oh? You're fat. It's alright" What a waste of a good idea and failure of story telling on Kip's part.

>>251602 she probably wont do anything. Like yeah things might be awkward the first few weeks but after that her feathers being gone just becomes "normal"

The angle on this art is pretty good ngl Rinwell from Tales of Arise

>>251768 This is the second Tales of Arise character he's drawn so far...I see a pattern

Can’t believe we’re getting Tomadachi Life for the Switch before an end to OSC

>>251773 I mean its a pledge reward and plus its only 2 characters he's drawn from the series lol. Could say the same for like the vtubers cause theirs a bunch of those hes drawn

>>251811 This game comes out in 2026 and if it comes out before OSC ends that'd be really funny

The one upside of the latest developments is that with the cat truly out of the bag, it can mean that Tessa may simply not care about her rep and take a leaf out of Aika's book to freely self-indulge to her heart (and stomach's) content. If she's at rock bottom, might as well enjoy it. How this helps her going forward remains to be seen - we're very much on the "step 2: ????" leg on the road to prosperity.

>>251525 Since their is no page today(since Kip posted the one for today yesterday) I'm gonna predict what's most likely to happen next page. After school Saiya and Tessa are going to go find Tania for exercise help and Tania is going to say no because Tessa has pretty much zero popularity now and is "gross and embarrassing" leaving Tessa screwed and just decides to depressingly accept her new image

>>251845 I note as well that Kip's been trying to make Aika more sympathetic in these past few pages. Perhaps she may be feeling guilty for her possessiveness and ill-will towards Tessa. If Kip is gonna make Tessa reviled then it gives Aika an opportunity to try and mend fences in an act of kindness and contrition.

>>251811 gta 6 gonna come out before this comic ends

Also is there like a hunt of what the ending to this comic would be?

>>251846 >in these past few pages Crazy, I’ve been sympathizing with Aika this entire comic. She’s literally the only one of the three that isn’t a straight up pos, yet gets treated like shit anyway. >Perhaps she may be feeling guilty for her possessiveness and ill-will towards Tessa. What would Aika feel bad about exactly? I mean, Tessa has completely brought this upon herself in attempt to get a woman already in a relationship to bang her. I get the scenario people are trying to get between Tessa and Aika, but after the homewrecking scene there’s no way for this to really play out without Kip bullshitting through it >>251850 Poly, threesome.

>>251886 Just because Aika views Tessa as a rival and wants her to back off from Saiya, it doesn't mean she necessarily wishes ill-will upon her. Clearly the situation is no good for Tessa and not something she would have wished upon her. It's not water under the bridge, but it's an opportunity to at least talk, open a dialogue, particularly if Tessa is to be shunned by her peers.

Did some tessa edits and added feathers to her

Some more

>>251768 Crazy that of the three playable girls in the game, the only one Kip hasn’t drawn fat is the one with the “anime girl who eats way too much food as a gag” one. Doesn’t matter though since these two are the best ones

One Serving Choice page 1000: "It was all a dream"

>>250528 I just noticed she's gaining weight because she quit smoking.

>>251937 God, they fucking would though

New page

>>252205 size consistency flushed down the toilet once again

>>252205 Tessa just lost lot of weight from the last page itself without exercising lol

>>252205 Wowwwwww this fucking sucks lmao. I don’t usually complain about size inconsistency in this stupid comic because it’s hard to notice anything else when the dialogue is so bad, but this is on another level. Kip is a joke.

>>252205 >I'll explain it to you later >later >no explanation, ditched Aika for Tessa shenanigans Bitch

Wait no, I get it now. Kip’s humiliation fetish runs so thick through his veins that he’s writing and drawing a 5000 page comic for 20 years badly on purpose.

>>252205 This is definitely leading into Stacy taking advantage of Aika and making her seriously lose weight to make her the new hit streamer to solve her daddy issues.

>>252212 You asshole, my throat is super irratated and that made me laugh so fucking hard. Fuck you.

>>252205 >don't worry Aika, your social status is already so low that nobody cares that you're a fat disgusting blob, so you don't have to lose weight and can continue being a fetish object for me >btw I'm off to spend time with the other girl that's vying for my romantic attention >totally not cheating on you though! every page a new low for Saiya

>>252205 Don’t ever comment cause I’m not schizo but this is embarrassing at this point. What is the end goal of this? It’s so depressing and stupid.

>>252205 Anyone else getting whiplash from Saiya's volte-face with her buzzing around Tessa in apparent concern? This girl is either disgustingly disingenuous or outright schizophrenic. Again, this smacks of Kip running with an idea and ultimately not knowing where he is heading with it. He most likely balked at the notion of Saiya being so cruel with her insane plan of hers and is clumsily trying to undo all that - either that or Saiya truly is some cracked psychopath in which case hats off to you, Kip, for writing such a coldblooded manipulator. Man, even Tessa and Aika seem exhausted by this plotline. -_-
