There are only two panels today. Don't be too disappointed. This was, honestly, an intentional decision not based entirely upon laziness. ;-) It was really the best way I could lay out the internal monologue and show the general solitude of Seiko's journey. Plus, making fewer, bigger panels meant I could put more into the scenery – and this is my favorite setting in the story. If you need a recap on the events that Seiko is thinking about, check out chapter 42.

Tantz: Lol. She does have some trouble with self-preservation.

Peipei: Kaida's method of reform is a bullet. XD (Plus her appearance always incites Fudo to violence.)

Molly: That would be some get-up! The cab driver would think she was on her way to slay a dragon! XD

Locoma: I grew up in a somewhat rural area, so I don't have much experience with public transportation. Where I live now does have taxi service, but it's really inefficient. I really enjoyed drawing the scenery in this chapter. ^_^

ghostrunner: True. He doesn't take well to captivity.

amanda: For better or worse, Fudo is an important player in all this.

LanceDanger: Yep. She's paying someone an unannounced visit.

n_y_japlander: Thanks. Flashbacks are fun. Oddly, I feel more loose and free with them than present storylines. Yeah, Seiko is a… unique individual.
