The Fall - New Schedules, New Lives, and a New Episode

Is it the Fall yet? Technically no, but your school doesn't seem to care. Just as you're starting to get used to the idea that life only consists of getting up at noon, eating a cookie for breakfast, and heading straight for the pool, those evil doers entrenched in the field of education say nay to your fun. It's time to cram that spongy brain of yours with info (whether it's useless or not - I won't cover that argument).

Speaking of Japan, EPISODE 14 is up. In this comic, we explore some of these issues of wanting something new and exciting, but feeling... STUCK.
