Ha ha, I still think it's funny how everyone has the same first impression. And just think! What if the story wasn't good enough to ignore the horrible art?

I'd think that you'd have not nearly as many fans d:

I wouldn't say the art is horrible though, that's quite an overstatement, but it definitely still needs improvement in specific areas, mostly with specific Pokémon.
On the other hand your art as gotten better over time, so I´m sure that as you go on it´ll only get better.

But I´m getting a bit off-topic here d:

Not by too much though.

It depends on the page a lot of times. Sometimes it's okay, and other times I just hate it. But yeah, I see improvement here and there.

How did you come across Just Gotta?

- It was a Comic Spotlight, saw charmander and had to click it~

What was your first impression?
"Wow, the art is worse then my stuff... I wanna re due these pages D:"

Why have you continued to read it?
I still dislike the art, (Sorry ^^;; ) but the story is wonderful, aside from Mewthree I've never agreed with any kind of mewthree. but its(/spyro) cute so I'm putting aside my dislike for it :3

Heh, sorry the art makes you want to redraw it so bad . . . I feel like redrawing comics I didn't write too, but when they're written poorly instead. Not like I could claim my art is better than theirs, necessarily.

But no offense taken. I know I'm not an artist.

Technically, Mewthree is just a black Mewtwo with the name Mewthree. That will be explained soon(ish.) Glad you like Spyro though!

Hi!

Well, I'm technically not a new reader, but I just registered for these forums and uhhh yeah.

How Did I Find It?: Just trolling on Smack Jeeves as I usually do. D: Saw the banner on the Featured Comic spot and was like "Ooo a Charmander!" Oh, and having it hand-drawn was a also a plus. A lot of the sprite comics I see are ridiculously bad.

First Impressions: "Pokemon comic?! Gimmee! Oh wait, girl gets sucked into Pokemon world -- SUE -- oh wait -- waaaaaiiitt...ooo. Not so much. Very Happy

" (Yes my mind goes that fast).

Why Have You Continued to Read It?: Because I really love the story and the fun little plot. Vye's got me hooked -- I wanna know what's going to happen to Hillaree. I can't just STOP before I know. D:!!

Ha ha, I really am glad the story is good enough to have people hooked. Makes me feel like I know what I'm doing almost.

It seems like the general consensus is "Well, I have some free time. Let's browse comics. Oh, look, a CHARMANDER! Eh, the art's not so great. Oh wow, what a cool plot! Guess I'll stick around."

That gives me an idea for a gag about the "average Just Gotta fan" XD

Bleh, yeah, Just Mewtwo and Gotta Past need to be updated. Particularly Just Mewtwo. I had a page drawn, but now I hate it so I'm actually going to redo it.

Anyways, yay, someone that didn't think right away how the art sucked! And now do you understand why they're running from the Aerodactyl? Stop giving them a hard time!

(Stuff we talked about at work, don't worry about it everyone else.)

... I DO redo the pages...

And to elaborate on my post, I really don't know why I'm reading it... I mean, it's not my "type" of story. I don't like the art too much and a lot of the commenters are immature and severely annoying. Sometimes I don't even bother to type a whole sentance because I feel pity on you for having to read through the junk! Which, of course, limits me to a random exclaimation about a panel. You know which pages they are, they're the only ones that don't have a paragraph on them.

Not even spyro can save me from the horrible comments. Now, you're probably thinking "Why not just ignore them?" Well, I always read the comments, because I like hearing others' opinions. Not in real life when they say theirs while I'm still talking or when they comment and yell at me when I'm only halfway through my expaination. Mad

Now, I just wanna slap the annoying commenters. Thank GOD I've only had one on my comic. And they only commented to say "hey, I don't get your comic and they all look the same" basically. Now, I respect opinions, but when each character has a DISTINCT different look, down to their clothing style? Now THAT P%sses me off. And they rated the comic a 1, too. God, if you aren't gonna read it anyway, why bother?

Okay, back on topic. Seriously, I'm still readin' the comic, and I love daisy, but sometimes it's just others that ruin the experience, ya know? *coughcoughkingsamuraicoughcough*

Anyhow... *looks up at above novel* Please do read it. It'll be good for ya! And sorry for ranting, it's just... I'm in a ranting mood today. That and I have a horrible headache that isn't being helped from my mother's BF's loud videogame. ;_;

I'm going to say the same thing I said to Rebirth about all the n00bs and their sprite comics: I don't see the problem. I don't know why you'd let silly comments effect you to the point that it makes you angry or that annoyed. They're just . . . comments. It's not like they're trying to be offensive or stir up trouble. They're either just saying what they think or trying to be funny.

Sure, stupidity can be annoying, but it's not like we have to dwell on it and keep us away from something we enjoy. If they really bug you that much, then you really should just stop reading them. There's no point in doing something that's just going to upset you.

Don't know if I can actually talk you out of it, but I dunno, it just seems pointless to be so worked up over nothing.

How did you come across Just Gotta?

I used SJ's search engine to look for Pokemon comics, and I'm not that fond of sprite comics.. they give me an headache, sorry.... and Just Gotta was the 1st hand drawn comic, and it was at the TOP of the list that the search turned up.

What was your first impression?

I actually was impressed by the art, and the story hooked me enough to have me sit though 6 to 8 hours of reading (at the time there was about 350 +/_ pages!) Besides, it's awesome to have a Pokemon story that isn't 100% about battles, etc. etc.

Why have you continued to read?

Because the comic is awesome, and I love the plot and I'm enjoying watching the author evolve along with Hilaree and the gang~

- How did you come across Just Gotta?
Smackjeeves 8^D I don't remember how, though..

- What was your first impression?
That the artist is trying the best. I don't know if it's true, but that was my first impression xD

- Why have you continued to read it?
Because the story is interesting, and it makes me want to know what happens next :0

How did you come across Just Gotta:
I was searching for Pokemon comics

First Impression:
I really dont care how good the art is when it comes to a fan comic. With me it is all about the story.
My first impression of the story is that Hillaree(sorry if its spelled wrong) left such a sue impression on me. Though she did get better as the story went on.=3

Why have you continued to read it:
I really really really want to know how it ends.X3
