Paulo doesn't want to hurt Abbey edition

But he loves Daisy so he'll go through with hurting Abbey or something (also behold the return of Daisy twirling her hair).

Why is Abbey “hurt” if this guy dates a fat slop again?
Because they dated before? But they aren’t now

Paulo is getting cucked by Abbey by just talking with him. ITS SO BORING! I want Paulo to get cucked the proper way, I NEED Abbey to actually humiliate him. God this comic seems to invent new ways of being the most boring thing ever

Because Taeshi is creatively bankrupt and can't think of any good drama besides that.

Or maybe the BPD-worms have ate her entire brain.

Tae returning to the scene of the crime for the fourth time

I hope she gets even more graphic with the sex scene than last time and has Lucy complaining to herself about the cum running down her thigh

James deserves to rape Mike more than anyone

Paulo's subconsciously looking for any excuse to not date Daisy

It's going to be really funny if she double-retcons away the backstage sex so that her fursona remains pure and unsullied.

He never got to taste dick and he's scared he won't ever be able to now.

So this will not go anywhere. Paulo won't follow through, will keep worrying about Abbey's reaction, while Daisy jerks off over how much he loves her. Thanks Taeshi, great chapter. Another massive waste of time.

I hope she retcons away the backstage sex so Lucy remains pure and unsullied for Mike

Where is this from?

I like how Lucy's supposed to be dead inside but both she and Mike look equally soulless. Equally amusing/annoying is Taeshi laughing off how hard her art had degraded since those days.

James recapping Sue's play to Madison

Maybe someone else is telling both of them about it. But I wouldn't put such an oversight past Taeshi.

i desperately need soggy bitch to give worst cat laughably awful sex

Taeshi's Bluesky account. Sometimes she posts random upcoming panels I guess.

Called it lmao

act retarded

get mocked for it

confirmation bias assumes direct control

Even Ken Penders can write better than this holy shit, BCB really does go NOWHERE

years of "your dead mother" jokes finally hitting Paulo's guilt because he's desperate for dick

Daisy having the conviction of a wet blanket and justifying Paulo AGAIN. Against her own interest and relationship even! Because she's a fucking non character that needs plot to tell her what to do

This "but I love you" does nothing to cement how they're right for each other but the opposite, they're so flaky about this relationship they'd rather sacrifice it than being told how shit they are

The way Taeshi always finds the right way to deflate anything that might move the plot forward by burying under shit will never not surprise me

I'm not sure how Taeshi finds all this wheel spinning so utterly fascinating. Maybe she just imagines shit in her head and just writes down whatever is easiest, then hallucinates a much higher degree of quality before moving onto the next nothing chapter.

If Taeshi wasn’t a good writer you wouldn’t force a 24/7 general to discuss her work over years

What the hell is Taeshi even using for a reference here? Some ultra shitty romance anime?

It's an excuse, they just don't want to show him how right he was about why Daisy was siding with Paulo all the time and how Paulo will fuck anything that moves

Me am Bizarro. Me relentlessly mock BCB because comic is good.

Paulo will fuck anything that moves

This hasn't been true in forever. The only thing that makes sense is that Paulo feels like Abbey is the better person and that it should hurt him to find out Daisy effectively left him for Paulo of all people.

What's even worse is that people PAY to see these wheels spin and go nowhere, not even my autism is strong enough to go through with that, even if the comic was better before.

You're right, Chris-chan is a model writer because Sonichu is still talked about to this day

Cringe retard

An upcoming panel from the webcomic Bittersweet Candy Bowl. Madison is talking about Sue’s play and she’s recalling when Mike and Lucy were performing with each other on stage. She looks a little disturbed about it.

An upcoming panel from the webcomic Bittersweet Candy Bowl. James is recalling when Sue’s play was over and all the actors were bowing to the audience. Mike, Lucy, Chris, and a fourth actor are shown smiling. James is recalling this memory positively!

Nah, she's retconning him into being there. Maybe this chapter is why she hasn't updated the webtoons in since December, she wants to shove this upcoming chapter in after Curtain Call.

Difference is Sonichu is never discussed itself, just the creator and the creator’s personal life
Read the thread and 98% of it is seriously discussing the characters, the plot, actual aspects of the comic that are only discussed when there’s something people like about it

Are you getting that text from somewhere or are you just inserting your own interpretation? Because I don't see any of that on Taeshi's Bluesky post.

yeah at least Ken was usually doing something entertaining with his writing, even if it was horrible. This is just horrible and boring, like what is there for really anyone to enjoy?

My thoughts exactly

100% of those comments are negative, not counting your own insistence that gravity actually makes things go up because they move.

While I agree with your point Paulo did try to get closer to Mike and James not that long ago, although wanting love and comfort and not a dicking

You’re on Anon Babble, people are negative about Looney Tunes here even if they like it, that’s just board culture
How much it’s brought up seriously is more telling of true thoughts

I thought the point of the New Years chapter is that Paulo DID want a dicking, or at least a makeout partner. Mike had to insist there were different kinds of love that could satisfy him because Paulo was mad that no one wanted him like that.

Anon, people here are still being backseat editors in the same way you watch a rigged show were the participants are being stupid on purpose, that's not a positive thing at all

Sure, in a hallucinatory, reality-denying sort of way. I too am certain that people who complained about Rise of Skywalker, to great length at that, secretly adored it as the cinematic masterpiece it must obviously be.

They're breaking up over this and then Abbey is going to find out they were dating and he's fine with it and then Paulo is going to need to figure out how to ask out Daisy again but now she has trust issues

I don't know, that sounds a little ambitious. Taeshi would have to juggle two separate plots with the exact same outline and pretend they are somehow different. Instead she could just be lazy and have them date quietly in the background.

They are, but if the one thing about armchair writers is they want to come up with improvements because there’s aspects and writing people DO like about this comic, and why they come back so frequently in this board with the updates, have serious discussions of the characters and plot in threads, make fanart, make AI models, etc

Remember when every character wasn't totally bipolar?

NTA, Bsky has extra descriptions if you click on images themselves, and Tae does beefy descriptions for many such images and previews/sketches, did that even for the sketches of the chapter that got rewritten into "Jessica making the best not-jessicaXnot-madison play for her gf at the cost of pissed off friends, haha look at them, so funny"

Only gooners make fanart of BCB in these threads.

The reason we come here is the same reason people watch shitty movies and dunk on them.
Stop trying to gaslight yourself Suitcase.

The comic is infuriatingly bad because it constantly squanders every ounce of hypothetical potential. All examples of which stem from the old days when the comic still had some modicum of quality. There, mystery solved without insisting the sky is actually green.

Thank you, anon. Here is yet more confirmation that Taeshi is terminally lazy.

The copium is extra strong today boys!

"Umm ACKSHUALLY BCB is like a literary masterpiece because it has threads on Anon Babble and people respond to those threads."

criticizing something = you hate it!

I'm so fucking tired of this progressive mindset. No one is allowed to be "negative" anymore in their feedback. Suggesting improvements is now a personal offense to people.
Saying "James and Mike make a better couple than Sandy and Mike" is not a fucking attack at the author, it's an attack at their writing. You draw an entire chapter of 2 characters meshing perfectly well together and at the end of it you decide to throw the chemistry away and waste the reader's time because the cat that just poured out his entire emotional heart to confess his love to Mike is now... falling in love with a fast dog? Not to mention how "Well Mike just wanted to be faithful" arguments are flimsy because the chapter ends with... Daisy calling her mom instead of having the 2 main characters of the chapter, Mike and James, reflecting on the events that happened? No Mike staring at his cell phone deliberating on if his relationship with Sandy is truly worth it now that he's found someone who can love him for who he is (a GAMER), no James crying and being consoled by his friends that his huge confession didn't go the way he wanted? There is no resolution so the entire chapter feels empty, like it's a Sunday cartoon gag and everything resets afterwards.
"Make the chapters meaningful" isn't a criticism or even feedback. It should be a NECESSITY of writing in any media.

Speaking of, any good bcb gooning material lately?

They liked Star Wars as a whole, didn’t they? Especially the old content?
So in this case there are aspects of BCB people here like enough to be engaged in new chapters

I like how the argument has gone from "Taeshi is a good writer" to "there's gotta be some quality in there somewhere."

It's not a progressive attitude, just one shared by thin-skinned people. Which is why no serious criticism is allowed within BCB fanspaces.

Checked. Reminder that not to long ago, people would get banned in the BCB threads for being too critical of Taeshi or Bagman.

I've been roundly critical of both and never even got a warning. Would bet those people posted content that got DMCA'd.

It's in progress, sorry but you'll need to wait awhile.

I don't have a problem waiting, we're in BCB purrrgatory anyway.
What are you working on?

I think she should just go back and forth on it every few years. That or say she let Paulo do anal.

Smut fic were Mike and Haley are alone for the weekend but she invites her friend group over for a sleep over. You know Jasmine, Mina, and Cassidy. Lewd shenanigans ensue.

So are Suitcase himself or one of the Patreon sycophants?

I don't think it matters. DMCAs are the only tool he has or knows how to use.

completely forgot i drew that little guy in your pic. it's oddly nice to see him again here.
