Artwork is good as always. I dig the sakura sketch, despite the admitted randomness.

I'm with you on this storyarc. I think there's something awesome coming, but its just been nonstop "pain randomly killing unimportant characters because he's a jerk". The storyline has just been crawling by...the weeks pass, and they feel like years and decades the story is so slow.

If this arc doesn't end soon, its going to feel like we've had a 1000 years of pain.

Eh? Props? Anyone?
