Happy Wednesday Yojimbros. You guys read to fell good in feudal Japan? Let's dig in!

>>149522132 (OP)
Bump if you're reading.

Goddamn Feudal Japan let a man get his coffee before you hammer down

>>149522187

>>149522203

Just when you were thinking Usagi went soft

oh. that's nice.... i'm scared

lookie who

Usagi's a charitable guy

oh

I ask myself that a lot too Usagi

what's with you today Yukichi

>>149522132 (OP)
I just remembered what day it was!
Glad to see I wasn't late.

>>149522278
>don't I look trustworthy?
of course you do, small hooded goblin-like creature!

>>149522354
>don't you see? I have to, otherwise I'd go mad with grief!

;_:

Yukichi?

>>149522395
>smelling jasmine
there's a (folk?) belief I know of in catholicism that you can smell roses when a miracle happens if you're near an altar or a relic from the saint who granted the miracle.

>>149522298
Oh my buddha! I found Waldo!

>>149522514
Interesting.

>>149522517
Oh snap

Ah Stan...

>>149522464
>>149522478
aw man, I knew this was coming but it does feel bad knowing who tabo is based on.
on another hand, the color scheme and the 3 on his kimono makes me think of mcdonalds.

>>149522487
Tabo was a real human bean

>>149522497
uh oh

god why ware these kinds of pages so much larger in file size.

And that's the issue. How'd ya like it? If you did be sure to support your LCS. I got some stuff to think about now...

>>149522548
oh shit, that >>149522539 might not have been a coincidence after all !

>>149522558
goddam, those last lines.

>>149522589
thanks OP

>>149522278
This guy again.

>>149522558
>Lost his mother in 2023
Does anyone remember what issues came out that year?

>>149522745
That would be Ice and Snow I think

>>149522558
>>149522539
I guess that explains why several important characters in UY have converted or been revealed to be secret Kirishitan.

>>149522517
>>149522298
So busy gasping over Waldo and weeping over the story, I wound up overlooking the pineapple on the same page.

>>149522884
Well damn, I gotta go back to check that out.
But first, a little meme for the night. >>149522278

>>149522915
We all needed that anon.

>>149522246
If only he treated certain fox like that.

>>149522262
Yeah I don't trust happy ending in Usagi.

>>149522464
Tabo!!!!!

Not that it really matters but I like how Japanese mythology is real in Usagi but so is Jesus Christ being the son of God.

>>149522766
>several important characters
there's literally just one and yukichi, now.

>>149522497
Alessandro Yukichi

>>149523267
Cousin Oriver is definitely falling down the Jesus rabbit hole

>>149522915
Thank you
I needed a laugh

>>149522915
Punisher's are now approved by Stan

>>149522589
Thanks anon.

>>149522915
heh.

Well I was half right in my predictions from last month
>One of them gets cured
>One of them dies
>Cousin Oriver gets drawn towards Kirishtianity
But I also though that the death would be a violent one at the hands of shogunate agents and there would also be a cure for the wound/sore that Yukichi is probably hiding as what prompted his change

>>149522343
fifth panel is a good addition here

good story
self contained but that bit yukichi at the end is a good hook for later stories
>>149522539
>>149522558
damn
rip kenny

>>149522548
oh shit i see it now
i was just thinking how odd the pattern on his get up was

>>149523664
You just know someone said "He's just one man!"

>>149524337
It's a very frequent condition for goons to develop

>>149523781
it being a genuine act of generosity and sacrifice in place of a violent one is actually a nice change of pace, It's still sad but it's a noble kind of sad. Tabo was content in his death but not in a throw your life away bullshitdo kind of sense.

>>149522203
"He's just one guy!" DENIED

>>149522213
Spoke too soon

>colors look nice
>eyes have a pleasant glow effect
>shading is fine
>it's Emi Fujii again
For all that's good and holy, keep that girl working on the comic, Stan. Pay her more if you have to, she's your stepdaughter, money will stay in the family.

>>149522558
Not going to lie, teared up. Reading his brother saying "I'm going to see him" and dies in prayer pose.

>>149525441
I was really surprised by the sudden jump in quality color wise. I'd still love to back to proper black and white but this has been nice.

>>149525441
You think he'd have learned from Matt Wagner, nobody's gonna color your work better than family

So we didn’t get any elaboration on why Yukichi didn’t want to get in the hot spring with Usagi yet right?

>>149525570
well for a while it was doing a favor to a friend, with Tom Luth (RIP) so while it wasn't ideal I at least respected that much. After that though it was just unforgivable. Hi-Fi was just unprofessional.

>>149525617
Nope. Dude's just shy I guess

>>149522132 (OP)
We are soooo back!

>>149525617
Not yet. It's probably still a chekhovs gun though

>>149522278
The Informator getting on Kitsune's fake medicine hustle plan?

>>149522370
They are really ramping up Yukichi's cute factor.

>>149525670
>>149525617
Wasn't there supposed to be a plot point that something was cut from Yukichi's body when he was kidnapped, but it was never shown onpage?

>>149526001
It was his swords

bump

Feudal Japan in a nutshell.

>>149526817
>>149522471
But doctor don't you see? I am Pagriacci

>>149522539
>>149522558
RIP

>>149522278
I'm always happy to see his guy

>>149528669
He is infectious

>>149527176
Now I need this redraw with an usagi character

>>149528979
That's slander, only a few (dozen) people got sick from his wares!

>>149522539
>a 660 gram baby
>less than two cola cans
And he survived? IN THE FIFTIES? It's an over 70% death rate TODAY.
Some higher power was truly watching over him.

>>149530478
The more we learn of Stan's life the more tragically fascinating it becomes

>>149531216
At least when we lose Stan (hopefully no sooner than 15 years from now) we'll have an Eisner worthy comic biography.

>>149533055
Hopefully it will be made by his daughter.
