This is nice once in a while~

Don't get the Shikigami part of the title though... Well, I know that when a person faces west, their behinds are facing east cause it's opposites...

Meh... whatever... too confusing anyways..

Page 6 made me remember Order of the Stick.
"I prepared Explosive Runes this morning"

The most-difficult-to-draw panel on the bottom of P17/25.
Come to think of it, has anyone read Moli Kaolu's Sister-Bride Stories?

P12, untranslated text:
The path to the Shrine.
Even if there are many plants growing in the surroundings,
it seems that it'll turn out to be an empty and large place
once arriving at the Shrine.
I drew this with that imagination.

Although the background is used to make up,
it's different from the ones in the main pages,
which are binarized (Threshold in photoshop) versions.
The main text are in grayscale.
I've seen it having had been different from the printed copies.
The lines seem flying after binarization.

While I'm typing the text at present,
the deadline is already due,
thus please ignore errors like typos.

Please proceed to the soul-infused main pages.

P19, second blank line, small font. Delete Spell is better.

P25, untranslated text:
Below is the most difficult background.
It took me a whole day to draw.
Mainly it's about drawing the village-like things in the back...

Keine's house seems to be on a high place a little distant
where the Human Village is entirely in the sight.
And it gives me the imagination of being made of grass.
What a simple lifestyle.

P26, untranslated text:
Although the Shrine gives an impression of being full of sunlight,
in (TH07)Suimousou there are many plants growing in the surroundings.
Which is the actual situation, on earth?

So the latter part is about the ways of spending the vacation.

P37, untranslated text:
Something Like the Afterwords
Well, that's the story.
The three humans' friendly gossip?

I think Sakuya's meeting up with Marisa and Reimu
is a very important thing.
While being humans, should they be able to accept her.
Even if they are the same in the aspect of possessing special powers,
Sakuya seems still somehow confused about being a human.

About that, the cat level is also dropping for Tom and Jerry where cat and mouse are playing together.
The ending of (TH06) Embodiment of Scarlet Devel is super-peaceful. Quarrel with Reimu quickly gets settled.

Talking about EoSD, Sakuya is able to manipulate fire in her SC The World.
"What happened at that time?" Even if I thought about it,
"maybe she's able to use some simple magic." like that.
"Perhaps that's also the reason how she's flying in the sky." I dreamt so.

Ah. The typing is as strange as Dead Dead. <- Not sure about that - TL (Watch what you're saying)

BTW about The World, there are also times when the flames change into knifes.
The knifes looked like flames? That's a rather rare magician. Dunno.

About comics, I felt like that I had to put time, effort, soul,
and the as-usual love into the mere 22-pages' comic.
Well, the background took much time. The characters took three times of that. Touchpad is very slippery.
Being not used to the tones caused much delay, which was due to the Comic Studio I used this time.
Even if the chapter divider was a good tool,
the lines seemed all dead. I had to save the images as PSDs.
Thanks to that, I used Photoshop to draw the lines again, and switched to Comic Studio to apply the tones and divide the chapters,
then I returned to Photoshop once more. I had three times of work like that.

Well, although I had such trouble making this, I'd really appreciate it if you were to speak highly of this comic.
Thank you for reading. See you next time.
