Welcome welcome welcome!!! This is Rakugaki Wall- a collection of stuff that will most certainly make you go, “meh”. There’s Blip! Which is slowly getting updated…It will continue! Yes! And more! (Later though…) I’m sorry that everything’s a bit of a mess here but it’ll get there. It will.
A new year, a new home! Makes one wonder why this wasn’t done earlier…
Now, about that disappearing thing…
I’m very sorry. No notices, updates, replies- nada. It’s a total jerk move. I deserve the title “Jerkface”. I apologize for sounding vague but it was a long and constant ordeal. This captures it perfectly. The moon crashing part especially.
And finally, to all the lovely folks, thank you for all your kind words and support. All of your emails and messages are so very, VERY appreciated. I’m still reading through them and I am so sorry if I haven’t replied yet. The positive reinforcement, the positive vibes, the LOVE…It all makes me feel so much stronger and inspires me to do so much work. Thank you thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU!!! I Love you ALL!!!
I must say WordPress is amazing. Special thanks to Michael Sisk for creating the groovy Webcomic plug-in. High five, Mike!
Happy New Year! Here we go, 2016!

Is it really you, Sage? Dang you pulled off a pretty damn good dissapearance. Trust me, I’ve heard of many people who tried finding you, many were even pretty concerned about your well-being.
I’ve personally looked around half the web for the comic to be archive, took me a while because even the best archives had some blind spots, and I really can’t thank you enough for coming back to life, because your work had been a pretty important part of my life back then. I used to be one of your formspring regulars, you probably don’t remember, but I went by the handle CJZera back then.
Anyway, the point is, it’s good that you’re back!
Damn, I was just telling my friends how Blip was my favourite web comic before you dropped off the face of the earth, only to google you and find this. I am doing to my best to contain the excited vibrations. I can’t wait for more Blip.
Great to have you back, Sage.
Welcome back Sage, we missed you. Thanks for all the good times and hope for more to come. Hopefully we’ll get to see more of your stories, they’re too good to let unfinished. Now if you excuse me I have to try and read the archive to get back up to speed!
Sage, good to hear from you and relieved that you are well, even if it sounds like things did not go so well in the interim.
Please do take good care.
And thank you.
I have one word to sum up everything I feel right now:
Okaeri.
I don’t have words to express how happy I am to see your updates again. Thank you for coming back! ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ
YES. FRIGGIN’ … THIS.
I pulled an everybody-who-posted-before-me and Googled out of curiosity to see if anything had come of you, and I’m elated that it was this and not… anything else, honestly. I think I also attempted contact at some point, but it never went well for Mulder so I didn’t think it’d go well for me.
“Okaeri” is a nice sentiment.
It’s nice to see you again.
I hope you’re doing well, Sage!! 🙂 Welcome back? 😀
omg SAGE IT’S BEEN SO LONG. I’VE MISSED YOU AND YOUR STUFF DEARLY!!!
I haven’t seen your stuff since I graduated highschool, and i’ve been keeping up with it since 08! It feels so surreal seeing you back at it!
Do you plan on updating us on what’s been happening for the past couple years? :O
And WELCOME BACK!!!
holey crap! good job being alive! this is awesome
You have no clue how happy I am to see your return. Your comic was one of the things I looked forward to way back when. You are among a few others that convinced me to do some creating of my own. Anyway to make a long sappy message short, I am ecstatic that you are back and hopefully doing well.
Thank Sagan you’ve returned! I just finished rereading everything up to the point you’ve posted here. It felt like meeting an old friend you’ve not seen in a thousand years. Thank you for coming back.
This is really so amazing, I’m so glad you’re back! I would go back to check the website comments every now and then to see if there was any news about you. Very happy to see that you’re okay despite all the hardships you went through!
Welcome back! We missed you.
