Nah man, this gotta be the most elaborated Rick Roll I've ever seen. They all deserve a damn prize, FR.

That's some greatest effort they had there.

Got exactly one man championing it and it’s this artist, so real

The expression in the top-left panel is absolutely fantastic and I cannot explain why. It’s just… perfect.

Holy crap! This is sick!!! Amazing work!

Hurts even more after the DLC...

Interesting, the Japanese word for "watermelon" ("スイカ" / "suika") is commonly written in katakana (as are most plants and animals in modern Japanese), so you nornally just get the pronunciation when reading it. That's how it's written here.

"Sui"/"水" is the common Chinese derived pronunciation for "water" in most compound words, and "ka"/"瓜" means "melon". As a result, in my mind, I always figured it was just "水瓜" / "watermelon" just like it is in English.

Thinking that way made the fact that the artist explicitly pointed out the English etymology in the post here as trivia seem a little weird to me, since it wouldn't be that interesting if it just matched the Japanese etymology.

Apparently, "水瓜" is a possible alternative kanji spelling in Japanese, but its rare, and the original / preferred / more proper kanji spelling is "西瓜" meaning "western melon" which has the same pronunciation.

So, watermelon day, huh?
It's my favorite fruit, I didn't knew there was a holiday dedicated to it. Once again, youmu-kun introducing me to holidays I didn't knew!

Today I figured out this is actually a redraw of a scene from the recent GK live action. Pretty neat.

From left to right : Militech Mk.31 HMG, Nokota D5 Copperhead, Budget Arms Carnage and Militech M251s Ajax.

Edit: I just noticed Shiroko seems to have Errata (the unique thermal katana) strapped to her left hip, so I'm tagging it in, also removed minigun and gatling gun and added heavy machine gun, because the MK 31 is a single barrel gun.

Welp. It's over.
The night, and the dream, were long, but life is only beautiful because it's so transient. Yet brilliant, so beautiful, it enchants us, to the point of obsession.

My heart. 🥺💔
