so what you’re saying is that it’s not allowed to use computers for comics? bullshit. | | Anonymous, on Jul 7, 2009 wrote:
>>I guess the Japanese arent THAT smart after all huh?
the japanese are never that smart, the greatest proof to this statement is that a racist eugenicist from AT&T labs invented the transistor and the Japanese, known as sony, applied that technology and mass produced radios.
Kago does the same thing, he took a software made by an american company (illustrator, adobe) and played with the mesh tools to make this.

And the title is reeeeaaaaally hard to translate. Something like ’As it starts to get hot, even the tracks grow without end’. | | Anonymous, on Jun 30, 2009 wrote:
He has used different characters, all homonyms of his name, and none of them the real characters for the city of Kagoshima (鹿児島) He’s punning. The subsitute characters he’s used don’t have any particular meaning really, I think he is just putting himself into the picture. | |

i don’t think they’re meant to board the train. my interpretation of this thing is japanese society and the whole "salary man" life of slaving for a company only to be unhappy, without being able to move up or advance. basically living the life of a drone. or of course i could be completely wrong. | | Anonymous, on Jun 25, 2009 wrote:
How are they supposed to board the train? | | Anonymous, on Jun 25, 2009 wrote:
making scale models of kago’s comics would be something i’d like to see someone give a shot. this one would be great. and the one with the buildings and meat grinder. | |

this is how the mind of a d.c. train operator works. so mad about that. how difficult is it to keep two trains going the opposite ways off the same track. | | Anonymous, on Jun 25, 2009 wrote:
Kago has made me a believer. I think I like them better without knowing the translations. The last one with the kids and the television screen was my favorite yet. | | Anonymous, on Jun 23, 2009 wrote:
