You can't expect everyone to get on their knees and bow to your comic :D Maybe you should start taking critique as a good thing and not get pissed off it someone dares to say that the story and characters aren't written that well (which I have to say I agree, but hey nobody says you can't improve). Maybe you've gotten cocky because your general anime style appeals to the masses or something? Something in your attitude seems to have changed over the months I've been reading your blog. cheers

Duuude where are you pulling this stuff from

Point me to a case where I received constructive criticism and got pissed off about it. “The story is badly written” is not constructive criticism. That kind of statement is completely useless and I can’t work with it. If you have a problem with the comic, here’s two options: either stop reading or take the helpful route and actually tell me what’s wrong with it.

If my general excitement & passion for my project and gratitude for the readers come off as cockiness then that’s too bad I guess! No plans to change my behavior.

  3. giantegg said: Your comic just started and people are already criticizing it? Personally, I find the plot inviting and suspenseful(and well done, might I add). I’m not writing this to flatter or contradict anyone: That’s just my opinion.
  4. lananas-parle-blog said: “liking” for your response:) Keep it up, your artwork is awesome!
  5. puppun said: Wow compared to some artists I know you are really mature. Not like “haha well deal with it idc”. You take critique better than most. :) That sounded dumb, but you get the point.
  6. domirine said: first i laughed at the sheer stupidity of the ask, then at the amazing grace with which you replied to it (◡‿◡✿)
  7. ptjtsubasa said: But “it sucks” is so much easier to say than giving constructive criticism!
  8. becdecorbin said: hahaha anon you be trippin
  9. dodostad said: this reminds me of a very unhelpful teacher who’s only advice ever was “this sucks, redo it”
  10. alexandradal said: Agreed. “Poorly written” isn’t constructive at all and you took it in stride anyway.
