As if a 500 pound rat monster in an apron and a rubber ducky hat wasn’t enough, we’ve got tons of new stuff for you in this update!
First off, we’ve updated our commenting system so you can easily use custom avatars! (Until now, it was hooked through the Gravitar system.) You’ll want to register for our system and log in. And then push some buttons. You can use whatever you like for your avatar, obviously but if you want something Shounen Fighty, we’ve captured a whole bunch of icons for you to use!
We’ve been excited to announce our new tumblr project, Ask Mahou Shounen! Drop by to ask questions of the cast and one of us will do a sketch or a doodle to respond. Help us figure out things about our characters we never knew! And maybe get some fan service, who knows. ;D
In case it wasn’t obvious, at this point we’ve let go of our update schedule and are posting whenever we’re able to get a page done. JD’s enduring a hellishly grueling semester of school and we’re gearing up for conventions again, so we’re stretched pretty thin. We’ll probably be able to produce a page every couple of weeks, but! In the meantime, we’ll be regularly doing sketches for the Ask Mahou Shounen tumblr so you can still get your magical boy fix until we can update more often!
This weekend kicks off the start of the convention season! This weekend we’ll be hitting Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle and Sac Con in Sacramento. Come see us!
Sooo what exactly happened did the girl turn into a rat? Spilt in half into a rat? The progression of that panel is a bit unclear….
It’s a transformation, so the rat took her over like the monster in the last chapter. :3
Well… that escalated quickly.
Wait…is Oliver gonna finally get his talent? YYYYYYAAAAAYYYYY!!!
Gyah! Okay, I’ll admit I didn’t see that coming.
More please!
Guys, I feel like you’re trying to do too much in one update lately- the story is feeling rushed when read in one sitting, especially this chapter. There have been walls of texts and info dumping, and the abruptness isn’t something that was present earlier one. I can’t help thinking this is because of the sporadic scheduling, but I don’t think the pacing should have to suffer- Just take your time!
I’ll admit, this is definitely a problem we’ve been having with this chapter. We’ve got a lot to fit into this one, especially that exposition info dumping stuff. And yeah, there’s a lot of pressure to make every page count and get you guys new information with each page, especially when we’re only able to get 2 pages done a month.
But yeah, definitely after looking at it as a whole, it is more rushed than our other chapters. Once we finish it up and it’s getting ready to print, we may end up tweaking things a little to slow down the pacing and avoid that whole wall-of-text situation.
Thank you so much for your feedback! Insightful stuff like this from our readers is really important for us to improve as comic artists and to make the story better as we go along. <3
Well, that was the creepiest damn transformation scene I’ve ever seen.
And Olly’s the prince? Uh-oh….
Olly is the prince! Yay! Also, never trust a Parisian mouse who interrupts your coffee-sipping in a dream. A good dream-bound Parisian mouse would NEVER interrupt your coffee-sipping.
Hmmm, is Olly really the Prince or did the Prince-detecting-dessert get set off inadvertently because he has a spirit? Either way the bright pink aura really suits him =P
So did the girl never exist at all, or does the giant rat creature have her stashed in a cupboard or something so it can trick Oliver by impersonating her?
I’d guess that the rat-thing is possessing the real girl, like the plant was controlling the hippie last time. Call an exorcist!
Bingo.
It’s surprisingly easy to spot this phenomenon after watching several seasons of Sailor Moon… XD
So is Oliver the lost prince the plant-demon-lady-hippie-thingy was looking for? Have to say, it’s fitting, seeing as he’s the British avatar of Spring. XD

Sh*t just got real…
Does someone know something about Bob (Shobana) author of the webcomic Demon of the Underground which should have updated one week or two months ago either you consider the announced end of hiatus to be read feb 4th or the 2d of april… Being without news since the end of January we, readers, are quite worried. HEEEEEELP‼
When is the next page gonna be up? I’ve been waiting to see Oliver transform.
Sorry we’ve been gone so long!
We’re still a few weeks away from being able to come back, thanks to JD’s school workload. But we’re chomping at the bit to update again!
I’m with sparkles. This is the best webcomic I read (I read like 10 or so, so small field, but my favorite). Missing the updates.
Thank you so much for your kind words! ;_; We’re dying to get back to the comic too, just have to get through JD’s horrible semester of school.
Its been 2 months TT_TT PLZ UPDATE! I LOVE THIS COMIC SO FRKKIN MUCH >.<
Thank you for loving ussss ;_; We hope your wait will pay off <3
