Mischievous cat with a magical collar. Loves her dad and food.
He was totally not lazy when “thinking” up of a name. I should know.
Original idea for panel 2 in Myan vision: “bishōnen” style. Didn’t like how it turned out so I changed my mind.
Whew, the last “panel” was a little hard to draw; dammit, why did I think it was easy? Guess I’ll add that pose on my “learn how to draw better” list.
Keith: You're...Miyan!
Myan: Miyan!
Keith & Myan: Miyan!
Keith & Myan: Miyan!!
Guess which panel took the longest to finish…
Myan: Miiiyaaan
Keith:Ow ow, okay, ow! I was just joking!
Keith: ...wait, what did you say?
Myan: Miyan!
Keith: Mi...yan...
Whew, delay, I really was lazying again this week hah. At least I got to finish the comic in one day, although technically it took me from Saturday night to Sunday morning to finish.
Nuhh, that first panel with Keith kneeling down took forever to draw. I’m pretty sure it’s not perfect yet, then again, 90% or so should be good enough not to lose my sanity over.
Some things I’m planning to do this month, hopefully I can get most of them done:
Keith: Hmm...
Keith: When I look at you...
Myan: meow
Keith: Suddenly, the perfect name comes to mind!
Keith: Yes! Your name will be...
Keith: "CAT" Because I give up.
GUYS IS THIS SUBTLE ENOUGH
Whew, this is a big one! Panels 1 to 7 were already done since Tuesday, but heh, I was slacking off for the rest of the week (archive binging The World God Only Knows and Angel Densetsu, and finished them!) so I didn’t get to finish it on time. Even then, this is worth about 3 comics and but I finished it anyway; hopefully this means I can make 3 a week in the future! I kinda cheated by drawing Keith in super-deformed styled though, but oh well.
Barring my poor Photoshop skills for panel 6, I quite like how I drew Keith in some of the panels here as well as the backgrounds, particularly for Keith’s room. The last panel’s looking especially nice, don’t ya think?
Oh yeah, some highlights this week, and I just want to thank everyone for the support!
Keith: Name... name... naym... "Myan"?
Keith: Nahhhhh!
Keith: Maybe there's something on TV? Inspiration is everywhere after all.
TV: Now, Miss May-Anne with a beautiful halter top blouse!
Keith: Hah, they didn't notice it at all.
Keith: Something outside might inspire me... Oh!
Clouds that look like "Myan"
Keith: The sky looks beautiful today.
Keith: How about my pockets?
Keith: Huh, I should get some cat food too. And maybe get more ideas outside.
Pep Squad: Give me an M! Give me a Y! Give me an A..? G-give me an N? Wait, wait! It's supposed to be myna!
Keith: Hmm...
Poster A: Labor Day Sale "May One" up to 25% off on selected items
Poster B: Visit "Myan"mar Bagan
Keith: Hrmm......
Keith: ...Names are hard.
Myan: Meow?
Sorry for another flashback, but at least you guys will finally find out the real secret mysterious reason why her name is Myan, and not because I couldn’t think of anything back then!
Myan: Is... my name really that stupid?
Keith: *slurp*
Keith: uhh...
[The first day]
Keith: So what should I call you?
Keith (thinking): Let's see... Something awesome... Something unique...
I think the last panel is very wallpaper-able, If anyone wants it at a specific size or make some adjustments, just say so! Click on the image below to see what it should look like at 800×600. I’ll probably change or remove the dotted background though, unless you want it to stay.
Keith: ...I see.
Keith: Myan I'm disappointed. If someone asks if you're a Super Saiyan, you say yes!
Keith: I-I mean, you're not a stray anymore, so behave okay?
Myan: Okay...
And if you somehow don’t know what a Super Saiyan is…

Myan: ..rrgh.... rghgh! RRGHHH!!
Kid A: Is she turning into a Super Saiyan?
Myan: I'm... I'm not a Super Saiyan! And my dad is NOT a loser!
Myan: Wahhhh, dad! DAAAAAAD!!
Actually managed to finish this on early, hah. Hmm, I like how the abstract background turned out for panel 2, which I really need to practice on… the abstract backgrounds I mean.
Myan: Yeah-UH!
Kid A: Nu-UH!
Myan: Myahaha! Myan is bigger than you, which means I'm right!
Kid B: That's stupid, and so is your name!
Kid A: I bet your dad is a loser!
Myan: Rrrgh...y-you take that back!
Ooh, intimidating, except she’s fighting with kids, and it’s… it’s Myan.
It’s been a while guys! Sorry for those expecting the rule 63 thing, but I dunno, I’m just not feeling it. Lame excuse, yeah. Real sorry to the one who commissioned it and everyone expecting it1 At least all 36 pages for the current episode is written up (maybe faster updates), and I have some good ideas for the next episodes.
Kid A: Yeah, well, my dad is better than your dad!
Kid B: Nu-uh!
Myan: *gasp* What is this?
Myan: Are you two fighting?
Myan: Cause MY dad...is better than YOURRRRR dads!
Kid B: Really?
Kid A: Nu-UH!
Sorry the current comic isn’t that funny or exciting (and again, late), the story needs a bit of build up you see… And heads up, I might not be able to work on a comic this week since me and my family are going out somewhere for the weekend.
Also from now on, I’m gonna start introducing some things from my country, the Philippines. Since most of you will probably have no idea what I’m talking about, I’ll attach an asterisk, which includes an explanation here like so:
*Taho – tasty silken tofu street snack with syrup. Sold by a magtataho or taho vendor who carries two big cans containing the stuff.
Oh, just in case you’ve missed it, I’m working on a commission right now, that is, a rule 63 of Cat Nine main characters; in other words, guys are girls, and girls are guys.
Keith: Two, please.
Keith: Myan? Where are you?
