Can you believe that the unnamed company who makes the unspecified brand of e-reader that my fictional character purchased in the year 2013 would depreciate their older products in favor of ones that are way worse (allegedly)

No new Niji Chikara page this week, but the backstory comic is still ongoing on Tapas and NamiComi! Some familiar faces make an appearance in today's update...

I mentioned a couple of years ago how Niji Chikara was never intended to definitively take place in Japan, and how some cultural things lean more western as a result. What's funny is that, in spite of this, Teinei somehow managed to become an extremely Japanese-flavored character.
He's an average employee, struggling to make a living while dealing with a very strict boss (like the common Japanese trope of the overworked salaryman). Most of his internal conflict is about wanting to speak his mind, but being too afraid to disturb the peace (reminiscent of the Japanese concept of honne and tatamae). Even his name is shared with the form of grammar most commonly used for polite, professional distance (teineigo).
Pretty much the only thing that would change in a more distinctly Japanese setting is that, according to my understanding of Japan's worker protection laws, Mr. Takaguchi wouldn't be able to fire him just for messing up a report. Instead he'd have to resort to workplace abuse, slowly giving him more and more punishments in an attempt to force him to quit. Which kinda sounds way worse, actually!
Happy Villain Week! To celebrate, I've decided to polish up the old Niji Chikara backstory comic "Rising Darkness" and republish it on Tapas and NamiComi!
