Kamui is what drove everyone to where they are, and is going to keep doing so
Unlesssssss.............
Oxnard gives them a good idea to stop the problem, since he has an outsider's perspective.
I'm pretty naive. Kamui changed so he could form Mr. Raccoon and Nishidor, so it would make sense that the troll I knew years ago probably stopped being that character of hers at some point too.
The end of the Kamui/NGG thing comes to a close in the next Circle. :B

Mmm, I'll say part of it. When I only planned to make two comics out of this, I named them Half Circle and Full Circle. It was because the story goes around, one picked up where the other left off and that one's end connected to the others beginning. The character was just walking around in circles without going anywhere, so that's why I originally named them Circles.
But I guess there's a little more to the title now - and either my second or third comic upload from now, it'll be mentioned. (:

Yay for Oxnard! Up to this point, he's been so happy-go-lucky. Who knew that, after his talks with Kamui, he'd end up being the one to say what needed to be said to help break the cycle. Bravo, Oxnard!
It's funny how these two comics here make sense largely on the human level. Too often we can become so caught up in our past that we forget about our present and future. Perhaps now Mr. Raccoon and Nishidor can finally find peace.
Though, again on the "duh-duh-duhn" moment is to wonder if, since Kamui broke apart as a result of NGG, will he ever be able to come together again as a solid whole, or is remaining seperated as Nishidor and Mr. Raccoon truly the only way he can find peace?
It's kind of like the tale of when people are forced to move away from their friends when they are younger. I believe there is even a song that goes with it where the chorus chimes, "Make new friends, but keep the old." In essence, leaving a place you once loved, and still have connections to, causes one to "split" apart in order to adapt. After all, especially if the new place is harsh, there will always be a part of you that can never truly be brought back. Then again, on the flip-side, if things go well and friendships can remain despite the distance, there's a good chance no part of you is lost and, therefore, no sense of "loss" exists.
Hmm. *cush-cush*

Hehe, it reminds me of a Hamtaro episode where Laura tries to find a friend of her grandmother's, who had the same clock as her. She investigated a lot, but then at one point realized that since childhood, she probably got married and changed her last name. :B
And the moving away thing.. I think that's really fitting too. :3 She might not have been a friend, but it was still being forced away from those you care about. I think in a way, changing characters was a way to force closure since I had no control of the situation - but once Nishidor finds the closure Kamui needed, it won't be a problem being Kamui anymore. (:
Hehe, or something like that.... another thought provoking exchange! :D

Indeed, dear Ham-Ham! Actually, I am impressed you'd cite that particular episode of "Hamtaro" as, now that I recall it, I do believe that hits the nail on the head quite fittingly.
Something fun about art that I very much enjoy, whether it's music, writing, or picture, is how it can be interpreted. I hate to bring "statistics" into this discussion. However, as I have had three, collegiate courses in the killer subject, I might as well use it for something. *shrug*
To begin, think of a bell-shaped curve. In the middle is where one hopes to at least have their work touch people to the degree in which the work is intended. To the left will be those people who progressively don't get it and, to the right, will be those who not only get it, but bond to it.
In the case of your series here, I feel I was able to actually connect with it at a level beyond what may have been your original intent. As a writer, I personally enjoy if people can do that with my work, as it makes me feel like I achieved something far beyond my goal. Though, back on the "Hamtaro" episode, I think that is why certain episodes in a series, or specific songs or pictures, mean more than others. Just, for some reason, we as people can find personal meaning in something never actually intended directly for us.
I'll end with something funny for you. Over the years, I have mentally tagged certain music that MUST be a part of specific scenes of my writing. The other day, "For Whom the Bell Tolls" by Metallica played and, unbelievably, I was brought to actual tears over how flooded I was with inspirational energy and vision toward a pivotal scene I plan for a future work. Who'd ever think Metallica could make someone cry? *cush-cush* *cush-cush* :)
By-the-way, did any of this make sense? *cush-cush* *cush-cush*

Hehe, I think most of the people reading were leaning more towards the left of the curve, where it wasn't clear enough for them, but I'm glad anyone'd understand it a bit, and I really am happy that someone, especially you, could relate to it like you've been doing. (: It makes it much more worthwhile!
I used to listen to Metallica when I was younger, but I think they inspired me back then too! I know exactly what ya mean though, I had a certain techno-esque song in my head for most all moments that involved anything involving Kamui and NGG. I think it's really neat that you could come to tears being inspired! I know the feeling, but it often hasn't come from music for me. I think the creators would love knowing how their music touches people, like it did in that case of yours!
Don't worry, makes sense to me. :D

I kind of figured it would. As the very creative soul that you are, I knew you'd see the appreciation in such an inspirational explosion rather than seeing it as an off-the-wall remark from some potentially, creepy guy on the internet. :) <LoL!>
Many, many thanks to you, Nishi, for everything your open mind and notable, artistic talent has allowed me to finally share. I have longed for very long to come across someone else who I could match wits with on the topic of creativity. Being able to have gone back-and-forth like this has really helped me to feel far less lonely in the emotions and thoughts I feel and experience mentally on a daily basis. So, again, thank you.

The same goes to you! It's been a while since I got to have nice little talks like this, where I really get to slow down and enjoy different ideas, instead of rushing through a lot of little ideas like conversations often do. It's neat we could find each other and enjoy talking like this - so I'm really thankful for it too. (:
