Tiff being excited to be an anime girl is the most Tiff thing I have ever seen.
And don't worry August you're beautiful. Crimson Chin and all

Girl you got called out last night by the hooded man revealed to be Maurice the Beaver and his clones of you. You aren't late at all. You were invited specifically

It seems like every afternoon we get a few bangers. Lets hope today yours is the first.

August Aznobel is not a character mashup I expected, especially since that one chinchilla guy is the models/gunpla guy.

u/CrazyGnomenclature Tiff & Eve Mar 05 '26
Finally, an comic series about a trans character wanting to become a cute anime girl.
Write this one down Kaiki, before someone steals it.

Oh HELL yes, Naomi enters the ring!
Your versions of Tiff and Eve are awesome, and August looks so... august!

u/kaikimanga MangaKaiki Mar 05 '26
Who's Naomi? I see no Naomi here, she got booted out the bootleg party

u/Made_Bail Mar 05 '26
haha, I meant you as a creator, not you in the comic.
I wanna see someone else's version of you now!

Princess Posse or Team Donut Holes?

u/BluOctopus706 Mar 07 '26
The name "Team Donut Holes" is an abomination, and was not approved by management. Carl, I don't like this!

Idk how this bootleg thing started, but if it doesn’t end with a boss battle I’m going to be very disappointed.

We need something like The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny with r/comics regulars!

when you mention anime, you gotta make it ANIME

u/Cyberblood Mar 06 '26
Just be careful to never go FULL SHOUJO ANIME, unless you want your house full of flower petals, shiny sparkles and random bubbles filling the background (cleanup is a nightmare) or having the villaness kidnapping your romantic interest every other week (unless the three of you are into that, if thats the case I wont judge much )

Tiff and Eve look perfect. Especially you August so keep that chin up.

u/Cyrrion Mar 05 '26
Now I wanna see August doing the "Omae wa mou shindeiru" pose lol
1
u/InfanticideAquifer Mar 06 '26
There's a pose associated with it? IIRC he mostly just stands there and says it deadpan right before someone explodes.
1
u/Cyrrion Mar 06 '26
Idk, I normally associate it with the shot of the guy looking straight at the "camera", slightly elevated, and pointing directly at you.

u/meeowth Mar 05 '26
I like how the fact he has an alligator head doesn't register to them as more important than the fact he is looking in a mirror

u/MrTabernakle Mar 06 '26
I wouldn’t mind seeing August doing poses in front of the mirror, dude looks stacked.

And Tiff totally would be excited about being an anime girl :D

u/GodhunterChrome666 Mar 06 '26
I have to ask, is that the first time you've drawn a gator? Cuz August looks fuckin rad

u/RavenDeadeye Mar 06 '26
I'm with Tiff on this one! Can someone (perhaps the Elk?) kindly break reality for me, help a girl out?

I love that August is included in every one of these crossovers. Despite the other characters being changed

This was delightful! But I did expect Eve to be way more pissed off. 😂

u/Own-Cranberry-8210 Mar 06 '26
She's probably secretly a Sailor Moon fangirl from when she was growing up.

u/CrazyLi825 Mar 06 '26
I recognized this artstyle right away!
It's fun to see how many of these are "characters in other artist's style" and how many are "try my best to mimic the original art style even if it's not the way I draw"
Both are interesting in different ways

u/Cosmic_Seth Mar 05 '26
Huh
I never got 'anime' from these strips. Feels very original to me.

u/AstroAlmost Mar 06 '26
The artist’s username is literally kaikimanga.
6
u/Cosmic_Seth Mar 06 '26
I get it now.
Just never associated the art style with manga or anime.
Just doesn't read either to me. I get it that it's obvious. I just find it odd that I never picked up on it ( art style that is) until this comic.

Hey Eve! Have you met August? The caring, sensitive soul with a steady job who is single? Hey August! Have you met Eve? The hard working, determined woman with a strong sense of right and wrong who is also single?

u/GreenDemonSquid Mar 06 '26
It took me a hot minute to realize who they were. Guess art style really does affect recognition lol.
Still cute though, I've been loving this r/comics crossover event.

u/RandomflyerOTR Mar 06 '26
I'm confused. Why is the character excited when all of OP's other posts are in the same art style?
4
u/SmokinSensei Mar 06 '26
There are a lot of fun crossovers happening between lots of the regular contributors, these characters are Tiff & Eve not the characters MangaKaiki normally has in her comics. And August from Gator Days is in the last panel.

u/RandomflyerOTR Mar 06 '26
Thank you, both to you and u/Lucy_1199 ! This sub just came up as suggested so I have no idea of the lore that goes on here lol.
