A thing lost

As she still ended up suffering from said machine.

I'm confused... How did an idealistic and individualistic teenager biker gang end up in the paws of a sociopath overgrowed pinscher? Why did they even let him in in first place?
Guess the answers will come in the next pages...

That happens often times. As time goes on, people come in and out that change the original ideas. Most biker gangs in the US- including the Hells Angels- really did start out as clubs of people who liked riding motorcycles after World War II and they just sort of evolved over time into what people think of as biker gangs.

Yeah. Expecially considering that probably most of the original batch of bikers outgrown the gang origina principles, or just left. The only one who still stuck with that ideal was Kalita, and even her had to admit that perhaps her view of herself and the gang was slightly biased in way

Ah, friendship.

Its sad to see this.....no wonder she loves the roda kira so much because it made her feel that she belongs there, its too connected with her......i hope she really does do better in the fallowing chapters with muko and cookie

So this is the oath Debbie made in the past. No wonder Kalita was disappointed with her settling down and becoming a mother. Her tears at the end of the flashback are sad as it shows that Kalita is very happy to find a place to belong. And then years later she lost that place to circumstances beyond her control.

😌I can tell this was the only sanctuary where Kalita could be her true self back then.

A pity that in this flashback it was never known who those characters were. Well, we'll have to see what happens in the present after this.

It's Leyline and Debbie. We see them in earlier chapters.

I mean the relationship of those characters with Kalita in this flashback; that's what I've been wanting to say and I've hardly seen anything of substance in said flashback, so to speak.

do you have ideas how those characters could have had more substance in this flashback?

Well, one way would be that there is more dialogue for the characters to be better understood due to the closeness, even more so because these characters are very close to Kalita. Also, one thing I noticed about the characters related to Kalita, in this flashback, is that none of them were properly introduced to her or the reader. I acknowledge Debbie because previously Kalita had problems in the present because she no longer belonged to the Roda Kira gang not to mention that she is about to have a family, which Kalita didn't take well to say of some way. But I don't know who the other character (lion boy) is, who also appears in this flashback; I don't know his name, what he likes, what he doesn't like, why someone like him ended up being next to Debbie and, in a way, I think I know who that character is in the present but I don't get anything here.

Basically the flashback per sey is fine and, in a way, I like it; Kalita has reason to be upset in the present regarding what she happened to her gang due to what she had done Gantus and it is understandable but that would be all I can say about it.

and still you know those characters seeing them in the past, because you saw them in a later present.

In a way, yes, but I hardly know anything about them in this flashback. For example, the lion boy, in every panel in which he appeared he almost never spoke and I have no idea who he is in terms of personality, motivations, desires, family (if he has one) and so on; that character never got to say his name even once and that's frustrating because I want to know who he is in this flashback. In the description of this page it doesn't say anything relevant and on the right side of this page it doesn't say anything about it either, so I can only say that I don't know anything about these characters except Kalita. Sorry.

if i don´t give them so much background it may be they´re not that important for the main story.

And what about Debbie? She, as I understand it, was the closest thing to a family that Kalita had, like the rest of the Roda Kira gang, and there was hardly ever interaction between those two characters in this flashback. However, the flashback is over so I think I'd better leave it here. Thanks for answering me in any way.

Kalita never looked so beautiful in that 3rd panel. 😌

Kalita just needed friends.
