Squash Match 13: What did you think? (Patreon)

"I can be your angel, or yuor devil..."

So, I'm a little nervous to ask what people thought of this chapter in particular. While I'm not too worried about blasphemy on its own, mixing it with everything else Ann did in this chapter is something that definitely pushes a lot of boundaries. I had most of the renders for this chapter completed a couple of months ago, and when I went back to finish it up, I was like, "wowza, I made this? But I also thought it was pretty damn hot. I do also wish I would have made Ann take off her boots and bracers before the bridesmaids scene, but that's the problem with working on things out-of-order.

This chapter has Ann cruelly stepping on innocent people while dressed as a superhero, before having her way with a bride and two bridesmaids (still fully-dressed at that,) and that's just the first third of the chapter! So there was that, the breast-crush (of a cute woman in front of her boyfriend, no less!) Ann using a guy who just lost his girlfriend as a dildo (while also insulting his dick for being too small! And his dick has got to be at least eight inches long, Ann, stop being such a size queen!) and one especially nasty and not traditionally sexy scene where Ann pulls someone apart like they're an especially tasty jelly donut. (Mmm, donuts...) So a lot of stuff that was pretty extreme, in my opinion, even by the standards of this series. Or maybe it's all in my head, I dunno.

But that's all by design; this was also supposed to be, narratively, the chapter where Ann really lets loose. Of course, I also had ulterior motives (I don't think anyone is reading this series purely for the plot!) but I decided a long time ago that it was important for the story to have a chapter where Ann acts like an animal, and does unforgivable things while completely under the control of her impulses. The specifics didn't come until relatively recently, but the concept was there from the beginning. 

(By the way I'll have a thread asking what people thought of Izanami 3 tomorrow, along with a preview for a new comic, so stay tuned!)

The next chapter will be a bit more of a return to the kind of action we had before, and it has a big, fun action setpiece, which I hinted at with the "coming next time" pic at the end of the comic. Chapter 14 is also going to be the last chapter with Ann rampaging around the city, before things shift gears for the final chapter, so enjoy it while it lasts! That's right, Chapter 15 will be the last chapter of Squash Match (which is actually already 15 chapters long as of Chapter 13, but who's keeping track?) That's not to say that it couldn't be continued in some form, like, say, a spin-off, or a prequel series or something. But Chapter 15 is going to be the end of the series as it's been so far.

But I'm digressing. Anyway, Squash Match 13: what did you think?
