KILL SIX BILLION DEMONS: Beginnings are false and I am a consummate liar.

Oh thanks, was thinking it was either a reference to tears, or taking something with a grain of salt.

Odd, as saltiness and bitterness are completely different types of taste.

"Being salty" is indeed a reference to tears. It comes from the gaming scene (I think?) where it's used to describe someone being whiny or upset about a loss, so they cry, and thus are "salty".

Personally, I didn't get "these aren't white girl tacos". What's that about?

[Domochevsky]

She's right though. This IS about that Zaid guy, one way or another. Which is a bit of a problem.

(Also, kinda funny/sad how none of their advice is actually relevant to her situation. Not much wisdom to be had here.)

If you live in areas where you have actual Mexican people cooking, you learn that Americanized tacos are very different from Mexican tacos. Same thing with a lot of other dishes. Usually the mexican stuff is seen as better quality. I've got a preference for the authentic sort of tacos myself, it's hard as hell to go back to taco bell or the like again after tasting the original recipe.

Same thing as Americanized Chinese food versus actual Chinese food. They just ain't the same.

Any artists out there, the competition to design Alison's clothes is ending in a couple of days.

Any votes on the favorite?

[The Mormegil]

Royal Aspirant, Aspirant and Silverdash are good for what she's done so far.

A few others are very nice, but would imply additional characterization before they fit.

[Domochevsky]

Hm, I'm kinda partial to "Festival of kites" and "Storm Winds of the South Seas". Especially the former looks like it'd fit the world quite well. :)
(Not easy to move in though, unfortunately.)

Supplicant I could see working as well, with the additional bonus of being able to move around in it. Unfortunately it's very drab with its brown tones.
"The Thief" is pretty good too. Movability, has some color, looks like it'd fit the world.
"Masked" is also quite nice for someone who has a lot of demon killing in front of her. But probably too ornate for the artist to draw regularly.

[MrConsideration]

I love this comic. Does anyone have any links to anything else the mysterious author has done before so I can get my fix?

His world would make an incredible campaign.

For anyone who isn't aware K6BD was originally an MSPA fan thread, before being rebooted and cleaned up into its current form.

Be warned that the thread may contain FUTURE SPOILERS.

New Offering!

Haha, she was applying to Law School? Kill Six Billion Lawyers could have been a great alternative name.

[Domochevsky]

Time to become a magical girl.

(...wait, what about the devil in her sink?)

[Mono Vertigo]

Aren't lawyers and demons the same thing already?

[Narkis]

Aren't lawyers and demons the same thing already?

Hey, that's harsh. What have the poor demons ever done to you?

[mystic1110]

Wonder why she cares so much about Zaid if he is "kinda a creep." Honestly I don't know if i'll go back to hell to rescue my boyfriend, let alone a hook up.

Or maybe I'm just an awful person?

[Aquillion]

I don't think he was just a hookup; the way her friends talked about him, it was clear they all knew him (and disapproved, which implies that yeah, he's probably a bit of a creep.)

[Domochevsky]

I do suspect this is a highly emotionally charged topic for everyone involved. >_>

[The Mormegil]

I think Zaid is an excuse to play Sailor Moon.

(I like reducing complex character motivations and personalities to amusing caricatures)

[mystic1110]

Just read the associated story - interesting that Humans created the Demons and the Demiurges subsequently masked them.

Update with the penultimate page of book 1! also some of the dialogue has been rewritten.

Looks like she's heading back to the Void, and has worked out how to manifest things there.

She also ate that blue devil.

AGH! Probably the worst part of that so far. D:

Dunno about manifesting or if that's just some power around the blade she already has ...from somewhere.

Pretty sure that's the Void, as she is appearing as a black soul around demons.

I think she's here again, not Throne, as her skin is dark, and there are demons around - they are supposed to live in the Void.

Archangel Michael seems a bit of a bigot, but maybe he's just real tired of violence.

Incidentally I thought that humanity was just once race among the many mortals, seems like some of the demiurges are servants then.

Or humanity just takes many shapes throughout the multiverse.

So Michael is the last Prime then. I wonder if that means he is the only one who remembers being a Prime through reincarnation, or all the other Primes still exist in the Void?

Also interesting twist on Gluttony with Mottom. Usually gluttony is portrayed as obesity, but here it is a more general ruin of complexion

Mottom used to be quite the looker!

So RE: the demons. . . humans created them . . . but they were unmasked and unnamed. The demiurges masked them and gave them names. . .

at first I thought that masking demons meant curtailing their power. . . but now that we learned that the masks come with names. . .

what does that mean?
