Get Schooled

I will miss enjoying this thing. The main characters are really well written, humorous and entertaining. My sincere praises to the artist, the job's wonderfully done, especially on the amazing action scenes and atmosphere changes. Their eyes and expressions also deserve a separate praise: they show so much emotion. Besides, the story behind the main characters flows smoothly and slowly, pices of it here and there making it even more instigating. I love the detail of Krav Maga being portraited there, even if the background provided about it is, sadly, not exactly accurate.
Besides, despite the absurdity of the main plot's proposal, it once brought a lot of pertinent reflections, even if they were problematic or simply quite heavy to face. (I mean, anything in this isn't remotely applicable indeed, the work's whole point is more about evoking a re-evaluation of our own values as we observe clash after clash as the arcs goes by – getting to see the TRPA beating the shit out of people in the meantime in a way that feels right , was just a neat bonus).
Regardless... There are limits even to fictional blunt clashes of ideas. No matter how good the comic was, blatant racial discrimination shouldn't be looked upon in plain sec XXI. There was way better ways to approach, portrait and discuss racism instead of what was done in the former chapter 125. The mere fact the entire staff looked at that script and didn't saw anything wrong with it shows how much humanity still needs to get better. It’s not about the choice of a word, the entire chapter’s construction was reprimandable. It is hard to talk about it when we couldn't really see how the author would threat the matter, however, now it's back, just going on and about like nothing ever happened. It is as if the incident could just be thrown bellow the carpet. It all just doesn't bode well with me, and I don't think I'll ever be able to enjoy it again, not anymore.
Beyond that, some arcs feel a bit rushed, especially the latest ones. Maybe it's because the focus is slowly drifting towards the questioning about TRPA's existence... Or maybe it's just my sheer disappointment speaking, after all. It was one of my favourites comics before, yet that just makes it all more hurtful. Something like this was bound to happen sooner or later, it's inevitable when each arc asks for a polemic matter for the story to keep going, something actually difficult to manage, which the author had done quite well, that is, until he didn't. The whole ordeal was just undefendable. Even thought this comic was delightfully good, now I can say it's criminally good in the saddest literal sense.
