Man, it is REALLY dangerous for me to take a break from watching a show for even one week. Yeah, since I already had the second page from episode 26 penciled the same night as the first one, there was no need to actually watch anything last week... and whatever semblance of a routine I had leading up to that point was TOTALLY thrown off. Granted, the problem is ALSO that I chose that week or to to grind out more bonus Gunbuster comics and even to queue up some Halloween blogs... the point is, I almost completely forgot I still had a Macross comic to do this week. And given what the comic ended up being, I guess that's kind of poetic.
Because yeah, they just drop that right on us like it's nothing, don't they? You really think that'd be an end-of-episode cliffhanger type of thing, wouldn't you?
Also, just an additional reminder: the page numbers and episode numbers are NOT in sync for the last arc of this show. This is the price we all must bear for me having a little extra to snark about last time.
