I'm really proud of the poses and angles in this one. Ok, now that's done. I need to address something here.

As you can see here, I'm sorta going into Tanuki's backstory a bit here. Gouto asked her a while back what interest she had in Johei and she didn't say. Because it was something I had wanted to save for way later.

Way. Later. You're all seeing Tanuki's backstory literally years before I had intended. Because I realized something about this chapter.

This chapter was about Johei and Tanuki gaining a trust for one another, it's basically the story version of maxing out the loyalty bar from the games. And I thought to myself “Well, Tanuki inadvertently put Johei through all of this. It doesn't really show they trust each other now if Johei is just mad at everyone”

So then I worked backwards and I asked myself “Why would Tanuki agree to this in the first place?” I'd already had this exact backstory you're about to see planned for her. I just wasn't planning on using it here.

So hopefully this gives this chapter a better ending.
