Hey everyone!
First off, I’d just like to say thank you so much for all the lovely support for Kochi, it’s been very appreciated! Now the story is starting to turn a little darker, i’m psyched to show you where it’s going to end up. Kochi’s a story I’ve been trying to tell for a long time, so now it’s slowly unfolding I’m enjoying it as much as anyone.
I wanted to start answering some questions about Kochi. If we get a few i’ll turn it into a FAQ blog post in the near future, answering whatever questions you might have about it. Whether it be about the making of Kochi, about the story or characters, future plans for Kochi, ANYTHING you wanna know i’ll be more than happy to answer (spoiler-free, of course).
So if there’s anything you want to know about Kochi, please leave your question as a comment under this blog post. I’ll then bundle them together and answer them soon!
Thank you!

A very warm welcome to Kochi Wanaba, the pencil drawn graphic novel about love, friendship, and how it can all go horrifically wrong. Every monday, wednesday and friday a new page will appear, until the whole book is online in its entirety in early 2011.
From conception to this website has taken about 6 years, and Kochi’s by no means been easy. In fact at some points I’ve wanted to pretty much destroy it. And I would have too, if I hadn’t put so much work into drawing it, and if I didn’t believe in the story so much. This is a tale I’ve been wanting to tell for a long long time, so finally being here, able to share it, is an enormous sense of relief I can’t even explain.
So please enjoy it, and help spread the word if you do. High-quality matte prints are available of each page (click the ‘buy this print’ tab at the bottom of the page), and every purchase is REALLY appreciated. Also have a look round the site for extra things, and if you comment on anything without a set avatar of your own, your avatar will come up as a random Kochi character. try it!
Here’s to you Kochi.
