TASOAE: 036
« First ‹ Previous ∞ Random ∞ Next › Last » This comic printed sideways, yes; but it was also printed on the Flipside, the paper’s humor page. The Flipside was printed upside down relative to the rest of the paper, on the back. Like any college humor page, the quality varied dramatically. I like to think that my time as humor editor was a high point in the page’s illustrious history. Before me, there was a tendency for humor editors low on content to “ironically” print a black box on the page. I mostly managed to keep the page from containing any bigotry, and even did some genuine satire. The current state of things is decent, from what I can see.
The music being played is “Soramimi no Cake,” the opening theme to the Azumanga Daioh anime. I hear the US military uses it at Guantanamo Bay during their torture sessions (not really).
I think this comic raises interesting questions about the difference between “Do you hear something?” and “Do you hear anything?”
Merry Xmas!
We totally must have been watching Azumanga Daioh in Anime Club. That show was something of a gateway drug for me in terms of anime. Showed me that not everything was like Naruto and Bleach (which aren’t terrible, just immature), nor like that damned Nabisco show.
…Plus, Osaka is too cute.
