This isKey
It's the story of a young girl, her freinds and another world filled with magic.
I'll post my faves later.

We actually already did this one a while back but, since most of the current members weren't in the club then, I'll let you repeat it. And, in the spirit of repeating, I'm gonna repeat my comments from last time (got a lot to do today).

The art is pretty nice, a handful of slightly awkward looking scenes aside, and the artists certainly puts a lot of detail into her work (like the library scenes).
But, like Silver said, the story is extremely generic. Elves, fairies, magical world, portals, quest to find five magical thingies, hot guy from another world, "ordinary girl" who really isn't so ordinary gets pulled into it, yadda, yadda, yadda... The main plot is kinda a mash up of anime cliches and, so far, hasn't had any unique twists that really make it stick out.
There's also a whole lot of plot holes / logic problems, like Silver pointed out. Where's Jerlorn live? What point is there in him going to school? Where's he get money? etc...
Plus, the characters just don't act in a believable way. They take way too much in stride. The princess is dead? Some people were hurt by an exploding rock? There's a magical portal to another world in the woods? The new kid is from another world? Everyone seems to just shrug off major, traumatic, and very unusual events like they happen every day. No one freaks out, no one is scared, sad, confused, or even surprised. They're just like, "Oh, ok then." Real people do not act that way.
Finally, everyone and their best friend seems to know everything there is to know about portals and other worlds even though humans aren't really supposed to have any clue about that type of stuff... What the heck is up with that? And why doesn't Jerlorn care about it in the least?

So anyway, the art is pretty nice but the story is full of cliches and between that and the very unbelievable characters I just can't get into it

And here's what I said last time:

Darn. I was going to suggest this one for my next week... Now I'm going to have to find a new webcomic. Or else admit that I've been reading Mystican De- Um... Er...

So yeah, I saw an ad for Key on The Phoenix Re- Oh, good! There's another comic to suggest. I'm saved!

...So there was an ad for Key on The Phoenix Requim's page, and I just kind of followed it because they art was nice and anime style and I couldn't resist. I started reading for the art, and I... kept reading for the art. Admittedly that's the only aspect I found really impressive. The story's ok and all, but it's just so... typical! It felt like something I'd read a milion times before. What with the portals and magical fairies and randomly enrolling yourself in teh local school and somehow finding a place to live without any money to buy a house... seriously, why the heck did Jerlorn randomly start going to school? Didn't he have more important concerns? And wouldn't not having any knowledge of the material taught prior to highschool result in failing grades for practically every class?

It's not a bad comic, though. And Falroan is so freaking cool it should be illegal. No particular favorite comics aside from the last one Kaida posted and that one in the library with the Pokemon book come to mind, though...

And to continue the trend:

Aw. The best mentions are already... mentioned.

So, to sum it up. It's cliché, it's plot holey, it's unbelievable, and the art's good. Also, Jerlorn probably got some schooling in wherever he comes from, so he probably isn't failing.
With lack of anything really to add, I'll end it here as to not repeat too much.

Now we just need Voltaggia back from the grave.

[auragongal]

sorry, I didn't see it on the list so I thought no one did it yet.
Any way this is my favorite, might not have anything to do with the story but still.

OMG this comic has some amazing art! And I'm LOVING Feynius^^ He has phoenix feathers on his hat!

Everyone said about the plotline being generic and stuff, but I don't watch much anime/read much manga so it doesn't seem TOO bad to me.

I do wonder how everyone knows everything though. I mean it's explained for Chris... Maybe he told Valeni everything... and I still can't quite work out Ki's story...

But that just makes me want to read it more.

This one Is my favourite. Especially the last panel... I guess maybe it's just that I wish I could draw bishis like that. He still looks male even though he has long hair! [/jealousy]

The art is nice, and the story isn't that bad, but it's not very original. Although the story is better put together than some cliched plots, it still seems a little generic. There are plot holes, like Josiah mentioned. A giant rock exploded with magical swirls, injuring two students, and they just shrug it off and joke about it. But still, I'm going to continue reading it.

Basically, what I'm saying it's like a hot and toasty pastry with a creamy cliched center.

I may not be Voltaggia but I still rising from the dead to jump on the bandwagon and quote myself.

Key! Very long title I know. This comic I found a few weeks ago . Its only got 104 pages so far to date and is rather slow to begin with.

Story: Jerlorn, an ex-knight, is due to return to Feynia after a year spent in the human realm... Only to find out that the key to his return has been lost and his princess supposedly murdered by a Daemonikhan conspiracy. While keeping an eye out for the missing key, Jerlorn finds a young girl named Ki, who searches for clues to piece back together her broken past - a young girl with more powers than neither of the two realize.

Faced with the Daemonikhan threat, they decide to embark on a journey to forge a lock that can allegedly stop anything. However, they're not going to get away with it alone. At least, not if Ki's protective friends, Chris and Val, have anything to say about it.
(Because I don't have alot time, I've pretty much just copy and pasted that, if you look you can find it on the main page.)
Fav Pages: This And This And This for some reason.

Wait that really doesn't say much about what I think does it.
Well I still love the art (it was what got me to read it) and its still cliche, but the art kind of makes up for that... I think.

Yeah, I'm gonna go and repeat what everyone else said. The art and coloring is great. True, there are some moments of awkward anatomy, but it's great nonetheless, and gets better as it goes along.

I too was kind of confused at how the characters seemed to wave off unusual events, like when Ki walked through the rock to the library. Also, did any of the other students in that school notice a giant bird was following Jerlorn anywhere? One scene they're in the halls and no one seems to point it out.

[auragongal]

Well, It's not as bad as Chrisander's ears.I'm still trying to figure out why no one notices a guy with pointy ears, in class, not even trying to hide them.

[Giga-Gar]

Same here. The art's great and all, but the story isn't. It's really kind of...meh. That's all I have to say about it.
