Maid of Win - Chapter 1: "Delicious Cake"

Well, this is it, folks. The first (real) chapter of Maid of Win. I'll keep the yacking short so you can get right to the content.


For the archivists, here's a Mediafire link. For the rest of you, here are the images themselves. Note the cover/title page; this will be a tradition from here on out to add to the manganess.









































....And that's all she wrote. I didn't QUITE meet my intended goal of 28 pages, but I think 26 pages is quite alright, considering I didn't want to have to pad the script just to hit 28. That, and most actual mangas have varying chapter lengths, so I suppose it's best to not underestimate the element of surprise.

Any passersbys of this blog, feel free to leave commentary. I'm interested to hear peoples' thoughts.

  2. You are well on the way to developing a very interesting story with well flashed out characters, using classic manga devices to add humour and information.

    You have lots of material in this first installment, and could quite easily have gone over your target number of pages :)

  3. I am not familiar with any of these characters, so the story will be pretty interest to read from my point of view. The dialogue feels very natural, and the flow is easy to follow.

    The sprites themselves are quite good, and the use of differently colored back-grounds keeps them distinct. I've seen this problem several times in other sprite comics, so great job for avoiding it in the first chapter!

    Looking forward to reading more, and happy late new years!
