The moment in question. Far less of a headache than the moment I had today! https://t.co/nC3iSrgcmD
An all-in-all pro, @kaitou_ace does absolutely fantastic work and it was a real honor to work together on Helck. We're also working on Rainbows After Storms and it's been a real blast so far, so I hope we get to work together even more in the future!!
I've only worked with @matchafinn for a short while, but he's always busting his rear and a natural bundle of positivity that it's infectious. On Do Retry, MamaYuyu, Kyokuto Necromance, and Yokai Buster Murakami, he gives his 110% and it shows.
I'm so glad to have met @kyla_aiko through Super Smartphone because I got to see her develop as a letterer on the fly in the manga we've worked on, like Super Smartphone and Gokurakugai. An incredibly kind person, awesome, and always brightens my day.
Although semi-retired, @salinsley is probably one of the best around and she's always so ready to help her fellow letterers and spread awareness of what the job entails. I only really got to work with her firsthand on i tell c, but I cherished every moment!
