Man, that was so sad. It encapsulates what I think someone would feel when a person dies and is being guided by the Grim Reaper to their final destination. The thing I'm curious about is how Yuuri came to this place because in "Hello! My Name Is Zack" Yuuri, from an ending, shows that she's alive and well (from what I'm inferring) and pretty playful, not at all like what Yuuri is shown here being mature and somber.
I wonder if during the span of "Hello! My Name Is Zack" and "A Lonely Ride" something happened that caused Yuuri to be cursed, and if Zack is aware of this or not. I didn't expect supernatural themes to pop up, but either way I'm invested in the lore now.
Amazing job with this one!
Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for playing my little game! I really appreciate it <3
Really beautiful visuals--I especially like the lanterns floating in the water. It would be nice if when I died the ride to the afterlife was this pretty!
I sometimes daydream about what it might be like to cross over to the afterlife, so it's really nice to know that you enjoyed what I was able to draw! Thank you for the sweet review <3
I'm looking forward to future instalments in this universe.
AAAAAAAAAAA!! Thank you so much for playing! I definitely plan on adding more to this universe, and sweet encouragement like this always gets my hyped up. I'm so glad you enjoyed yourself (and Miss Yuuri!)
Yuuri is so pretty, the art is beautiful. I love how the red background haloed her head. The story was a fun peak into what seems as a larger universe and made me interested in learning more :)
EEEEEE I'm so glad you caught the red sunset looking like a halo! Mwah mwah mwah, thank you Connie <3
i love yuuri. this was extraordinarily sweet.
YOU'RE EXTRAORDINARILY SWEET thank you for the review <3

Yuuri is made of 100% wife material. It's true.
