Week 300! (Page 471 Script) (Patreon)

THIS MARKS PAYMENT FOR THE WEEK OF 5/10-5/16.

First script update for the month of May, this is page 471.

This is actually the last page of sparring between Fox Kale and Kale. The two will continue to spar and train off-camera for a while, but this is the last bit of fighting we'll see, as we'll be moving on to the Q&A section of this arc starting in the next page. 

Looking at this page, it's interesting to see how far the relationship between Kale and his vulpine id self has come over the many years. Fox Kale started this whole mess by trying to kill Kale himself, almost succeeding at that until he was saved. But now, as Fox Kale and Kale have experienced all that they have since then, from the attacks by trusted people to the revelations about themselves and the unconscious world they keep visiting, this arc in general shows how bonded the two have become, which was always the direction they were supposed to head really. Kale and Fox Kale always have been two parts of the same person, despite their unusual individuality, and part of the journey was them learning to get along with each other and work towards the same goal, and in essence this would help mend the cracks that he's had in his head since the start of the comic. Fox Kale may still have heavily threatened Kale at the start of the arc, but here they're finally starting to become more comfortable with each other.

Also I may or may not excise that eighth panel by the time this page actually gets to the drawing phase. It's a cute joke, but I'm not sure if it detracts from Lucy's nod of approval as its own joke.
