Fence #6 – C.S. Pacat & Johanna the Mad
After an unexpected defeat, tensions run high among the fencers of Kings Row.
Coach’s genius move at handling crushed egos.
“You can’t call me zero anymore.”
Good job, Nicholas!

Fence #3 – C.S. Pacat & Johanna the Mad
As Nicholas works to become a better fencer, Seiji takes an unexpected interest in his journey.
Getting really good and getting really queer. Hints of Nicolas’ parentage, OTPs and cannons, crash course on fencing and of course, cliffhangers.

As Seiji and Nicholas struggle with their living arrangement, the competition heats up.
I’m feeling the heat! Lovely meeting the rest of this wonderfully diverse gang.

Fence #1 –
C.S. Pacat & Johanna the Mad
Sixteen-year-old Nicholas Cox is an outsider to the competitive fencing world. Filled with raw talent but lacking proper training, he signs up for a competition that puts him head-to-head with fencing prodigy Seiji Katayama…and on the road to the elite all-boys school Kings Row. A chance at a real team and a place to belong awaits him—if he can make the cut!
Nothing we haven’t seen before in sports anime but I’m curious to see where C.S. Pacat will take this comics. Can’t wait for #2!
