Happy Friday the 13th! To celebrate, here's My First Love Was a Beautiful "Girl" chapter 6. The title has been updated from About a Guy Who's Been Destroyed From His First Love Being a Pretty Girl ♂, because the new title is the one used in the serialization for the volume release.
There's very little difference between the web version and the serialization, other than the serialization being monochromatic and some of the pages have improved art for backgrounds and scenery, but the basic layout of the pages, in terms of the character art and the bubbles, remain the same. The web version is now a sort of preview of the finished chapters published in the volumes, and as such, there are some things in the web version, and specifically this chapter, that are clearly unfinished when it was posted recently.
Still, the chapter itself is complete, even if some of the scenery is still in the sketch phase on a few pages. Also, some of the pages appear to be the finished version and are therefore monochromatic, so this release is weirdly a blend of both the unfinished and finished pages,. But anyway, enjoy.

Edit: Typo on pg. 16 fixed and reuploaded. Replace with this.
Thank you!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for all your work and the next chapter, I'm looking forward to read!!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad there was a plausible explanation for his cross-dressing. :)
ReplyDeleteTypo on page 16: "That's so shameless OR a girl your age!" :(
Also, I notice that you've saved all the pages, including the monochrome ones, as 16 million colour PNGs. Now, normally I'd be on your case about that, since it bloats the file sizes. But you generally seem to know what you're doing when it comes to the technical stuff, and I can understand that you wouldn't want to accidentally convert a colour page to greyscale for the sake of saving a few bytes.
However. None of these pages actually uses anywhere near 16 million colours. Have you considered maybe saving them as, say 64K colours instead? I don't think there would be any noticeable reduction in quality. At least, I couldn't see any difference when I tried it. Well, please think about it at least.
