Revelation!
So it's true, that's Steel!
Aaaaand he's out cold. lol
Alright, alright, you guys have been insane with the theories in the last page!
I'm so happy that you are so involved in this mystery!
I do have one request though: please keep the drama away! <3
I've been in the middle of quite a few shitstorms lately, and it sucks.
I've seen some really bitter remarks in the comments, both aimed at me and at other users. I love discussing interesting theory, but discussions should be kept peaceful
I understand that you are confused, and even frustrated that some things aren't adding up, but please just be patient.
Many of you have made some very very valid points, and some of you actually got part of the mystery right! But of course there are still a few pieces missing, which will make the whole thing clearer as time goes on.
For example, many readers have correctly made a connection between Ryu and Steel. Some said Ryu is Steel reborn, some said Ryu is being possessed by Steel, some others think they are related by blood, and more! And while a number of you got the right answer, everyone seems to have overlooked a tiny wee detail: Oniken. How does he fit into all this?
Enjoy!

I just spent a total of I think.... 4 hours reading this comic from start to finish? I can't remember the total exactly, but I am glad I did. I've always loved this comics artwork. The pacing is kinda off at times with some things happening that make no sense... but I still adore this story and its characters.
Your art has improved so massively and it is so inspiring to see how dedicated you are to doing this comic completely in colored pencil with minor digital assists. The character designs are lovely on the demons which each looking just, so unique and recognizable to the animal of the zodiac they represent.
On top of that come all the complex poses that you have virtually perfected over the course of these 8 years while working on this. It always amazes me to see how you can twist your characters bodies in so many ways while keeping it looking plausible with their skeletal and muscle structure. I will admit there are times when poses are hard to read because of how heavy the colored pencil is, but it hasn't taken away from my experience reading this.
The style is also very gorgeous, having evolved from what clearly was an anime influence into one that is all your own. The way you shade is also very admirable. You go out of your way to mix various different hues of purple, orange, red, green, blue, white, and browns to help convey time of day, as well as emotions.
You are a true inspiration to people of all ages. Be they comics writers or not, hobbyists or professionals, you are a massive influence on how digital media isn't the only way to draw. I hope that people who art incapable of affording good art tablets for digital work see your comic, and take away from it that they too can accomplish amazing artwork with just what's around them.
I look forward to the rest of this comic from you. Keep up this stunning work of yours. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/h/h…" width="15" height="13" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="357" title="Heart"/>
