[Link] Minding My Own Business [Date] 5/11/00 [Comments] 
It's another anime inspired comic. The art is amateur, but I really respect the way he tries something new all the time. The unique aspect of this comic is its writing. In fact also in the style of a lot of anime (or perhaps more accurately, magna), MMOB focuses on tangled relationships. There are long, dreamy sequences with melancholy song lyrics woven in, or characters are represented by their emotions, or as projections of how they look to others. It's totally angst-ridden, but so creative about it that I nonetheless keep checking it every once in a while to see what he's come up with next. Published at semi-random intervals somehow adding up to most of the days of each week. Update 1/30/03I checked this one recently and found it had moved. Along with the move, the author brought a new drawing style and new developments. The original archive appears to be gone. I like the new stuff, it's a little more polished while still holding onto the original contemplative style. My link to this comic has been changed to the new site.
