Takaido Station - ticket machines

Takaido Station - ticket machines by fred_rin.
This is a photograph of the spot where Kimiko and Piro had their first encounter. Note that the original photo i drew this from was only a thumbnail from a website, and i had the general layout of the station wrong. This photo is from my japan trip in January 2004.

It must be really hard drawing a comic that takes place in Japan without actually being there. And even if you have, you can't possibly remember all the details! :s

I hope your "layout-experiments" go well and you won't be overwhelmed about such a suprise change.

Er, the name of this station is "Takaido". It's interesting that Keio put no romaji (or even furigana) on the sign

I always wondered about that, about how much of your art was based on having actually seen the places you draw, and how much is done from photos, and how much is done completely from imagination. I've read every comic, but I haven't explored your site much to find out if you answered that question anywhere else. Thanks for the great comic, and for this most recent bit of "fan service" (whether it's intended as such or not)

Why is this censored? Not the actual pic - but I have to click-thru stating that I do want to see the pic...

ya I get the same thing, why is this censored? I mean some people may find men in green jackets a turn on, but I don't think it's that erotic :p

hm, good question. I don't see any settings that call it out as 'mature content'... hm. Where would you set that anyway?
