4/11/24

WHOOPS guess who made an animatic and forgot to upload it for a solid year...

2/11/24

Happy three year anniversary to Captain Jellyfish! As a way of saying thank you, I'm doing a qna, so leave your questions here! Thank you for reading everyone!

9/11/24

Just a reminder that I'm finishing this story no matter what. Even if I have to go back to posting exclusively on wt I'm not giving up on this story, I know the world is really scary right now, but you cannot give up. It's what they want you to do. Other people have got your back, even if you don't think so. Take care of yourselves in these comming days, read a book, re-watch a series or movie you like. Just dont. Give. Up.

6/11/24

I can't do this I can't fucking do this I feel like I'm going to puke

4/11/24

Currently working on tightning up/updating color pallettes for characters in the comic and jfc they're kind of a mess. Thank you for sticking through the awkard coloring lol, when I started CJ I hadn't really used a lot of colors before (or did digital art really), so I kind of just whent crazy with the colors I could pic lol

3/11/24

Chapter 74 is up YIPPEE!!!

31/10/24

I know it's a bit late but Happy Halloween everybody!

20/10/24

18/10/24

Just saw how the new banner looks on mobile. Going to strangle someone over this.

16/10/24

The site banner has been updated! Let me know what you think of it, I know that the colors of the old one was bothering me, besides I feel like the new one fits the comic better lol

12/10/24

HAHAHAHAHAHA GUESS WHO MADE A DRESS UP GAME!!!

9/10/24

I think I've gone mad with power(Do not worry about this statement)

6/10/24

Chapter 72 is up! Sorry for the delay! I was a bit behind schedule today lol

1/10/24

So I decided to increase my canvas size so that if/when I print CJ physically the panals will translate easier and while I'm genuinely excited about that, now all the borders I created are too small ;-; Also be on the lookout for any aesthetic changes on the site! They're getting kind of outdated and I've been thinking on replacing a few things

26/9/24

Hey so I just wanted to thank anyone who's ever commented on my comic recently. It was honestly really hard transitioning from wt/tapas where people commented on my stuff to radio silence, so again, thank you. Even if I don't always reply please know that it really helps with making the comic

22/9/24

Chapter 71 is here bby! Hope you have as much fun reading it as I did making it :3

8/9/2

GUESS WHO'S THE CLOWN AND ACCIDENTALLY UPDATED THE NEW CHAPTER EARLY OVER TOP OF CHAPTER 69 AND ONLY JUST NOTICED IT FIVE MINUTES AGO!!!

28/8/24

I'm both comforted and concerned by the amount of people who've told me they relate to the last chapter are y'all ok-

25/8/24

Chapter 69(haha nice) is going up little early today due to me leaving to see my Uncle before he gets cremated lol.

21/8/24

Just so there isn't any clownery where CJ updates on Neocites one week and WT/Tapas the other, they're both being updated this sunday.

18/8/24

*coughs up blood* I'M BACK! Sorry guys, My laptop was away for """repairs"""(they didn't even do anything, it literally just sat in their que for 10 days straight) so no new chapter this week, sorry :( In compensation, however, the animation challenge I mentioned before has been released! So you can watch the little animation I did for it and everyone else's wonderful submissions! It's not Captain Jellyfish related, but I'm still pretty proud of it,so I hope you enjoy :3

4/8/24

Yippee chapter 68 is here! Also sorry if it's kind of short, between working on an animation and packing for vacation I was a bit pressed for time this week lol. Hope you enjoy :3

27/7/24

Me:Hmmmmm I know I kind of have a lot on my plate creatively rn between my comic and working on a pokemon fangame, should I even do the animation contest I saw someone was doing?

Me,Seeing that the deadline is August 3Well shit I guess I am-

(Dw I'll be fine I like the challenge)

21/7/24

New chapter's here, yippee!!! I actually managed to put in a really dumb part of a character's backstory that I thought I wouldn't get to put in precisely because it was so stupid lol

7/7/24

Extra extra! New Captain Jellyfish volume is up now!

23/6/24

And so the end of volume 6 is here! I know it's technically a little early to "end" the volume buy it's kind of how the cards ended up falling

9/6/24

CHAPTER 64 IS HERE WHOOOOOOO!!! WE ARE SO BACK BBY!

6/6/24

Me: Aw man, I feel really bad that I haven't been as motivated to work on my comic as before, I know its inevitable, but I can't help it! I just want to work on some of the other projects I've been working on-

Also Me *Get reminded of Cloud Factory*: I am finishing this fucking comic I have to work on it right fucking now-

27/5/24

And Chapter 63 is here! Sorry again about the delay/crazyness with uploading as of late, and thank you for your patience! I swear I'm not trying to make this a habit lol

26/5/24

Hey guys I'm really sorry but the new chapter won't be up until tomorrow. I've had a really busy week and I'd rather wait a day to not give you guys a half baked chapter. Sorry again and thanks for understanding!

24/5/24

Yes the website is still three chapters ahead of the wt/tapas. No I have no clue why they're both listed as being at chapter 62

12/5/24

Chapter 62 has arrived! Sorry for the kind of short chapter everyone! I had finals this week so I was kind of short on time lol

28/4/24

Chapter 61 is officially here! I changed up the shading in this one, let me know what you think!

15/4/24

Just a reminder to anyone who might not have heard, Captain Jellyfish will not be updating this sunday, and will instead be updating on the 28th. Thanks for understanding!

15/4/24

Just a reminder to anyone who might not have heard, Captain Jellyfish will not be updating this sunday, and will instead be updating on the 28th. Thanks for understanding!

7/4/24

Chapter 60 is officially here! Hope you enjoy :)

31/3/24

Happy Trans Day of Visibility! Also Easter ig.

28/3/24

I used to be sooo dumb when it came to webtoon, I used to think that "Webtoon Originals" only ment that something was only on webtoon. I didn't know they got paid lmfao. I deadass tagged my first post on instagram talking about the first chapter of Captain Jellyfish as "webtoonoriginal". There isn't really a point to this I'm just laughing at myself lmfao anyway go read "The Blind Prince" if you haven't already I'm going insane over it(affectionate)

24/3/24

Chapter 59 is here! Hope you enjoy the chapter, as I had fun working on it :)

17/3/24

Slight site update! I made it so that only the five most recent entries to the Author's Log is seen on the main page. All previous logs are going to be able to be accessed at the bottom with the 'Previous Updates' button. I noticed it it was getting a bit long to scroll through to access the list of all the chapters for Captain Jellyfish if you wanted to read on mobile, so now it's shortened a bit. Hope this helps!

10/3/24

Chapter 58 has arrived!Sorry for the delay! I'm low-key fighting the wifi lol

29/2/24

I finally made the site mobile friendly again/made the newsletter link more visible! Sort of! Now you have to click on a button to get to it but hey, it works lol

26/2/24

Chapter 57 is here!Sorry for the delay everybody! I had to work until 8 tonight and I planned to just release the update before I had to leave for work but I feel asleep and woke up literally right when I had to leave. Again, sorry for the delay!

17/2/24

Hey guys, big update: I'm going to be co-posting on both Neocites and Webtoon/Tapas. Basically what's going to happen is that Captain Jellyfish will be three chapters ahead of what's on Webtoon/Tapas and things on here will continue to run as usual(Chapter/author updates, random ramblings, etc.), and in accordance with the strike for Palestine from the 18-25, Captain Jellyfish chapter 57 will come out on the 26th. See you there!

11/2/24

And so our first(?) interlude is here! And on time for once haha

29/1/24

And the finale for volume 5 is here! Thank you for your patience in uploading, as I forgot about the strike when I initially said that it would be uploaded yesterday. In accordance with the strike, I decided to move the upload date to the 29th. Hope you enjoyed the chapter!

24/1/24

FROM THE RIVER TO THE SEA PALESTINE WILL BE FREE!

17/1/24

Blight's been added to the Characters page, and her wanted poster has been added! :)

15/1/24

Chapter 54 is here! Sorry for the delay and thank you for understanding!

11/1/24

Unfortunately, due to my arm hurting to move from a combination of a vaccine shot and soon blood being drawn for testing, Captain Jellyfish will not update this sunday but instead on monday. Sorry everyone :( I know myself and getting my blood drawn combined with work... Yeah I'm stright up going to be down for the count for a day or two. Thanks for understanding!

6/1/24

Its really weird despite not working on the comic for like, a week(which is usual for me I work on the comic every other week to avoid burnout), it feels like I haven't worked on it in months. Maybe it's because it's a new year, maybe it's because so much happened this week, I donn't know. Either way I'm ready to work on the comic :)

31/12/23

And so chapter 53 is here! I decided to upload it a bit early because of the holiday lol. Happy New Years!

17/12/23

Chapter 52 is here!

15/12/23

And so we have a news letter/email list! You can now get notified when the comic updates! I meant to do this a while back but then life happened(death and all that), but it's here now lol. I had some people suggest a RSS feed, and while that did sound like a good idea, I know not everyone has one, and honestly I'd feel bad asking for people to download something to get comic notifications after the move off of webtoon/tapas lol

14/12/23

WOAH Thanks for 2000 hits!

10/12/23

I'm going to start killing people I just noticed that I've been misspelling "official"

4/12/23

I've made some minor adjustments to chapter 51 as it wasn't up to my standard of quality. Sorry about any confusion! In better news however, as you may have noticed, I've now joined a Webcomic Ring! Everyone's comics in the ring are spectacular, so be sure to check them all out when you get the chance :)

3/12/23

WE'RE SO BACK BBY! Make sure your volume's working for chapter 51 because it's here :D !!!

30/11/23

Captain Jellyfish returns this sunday! Be sure to tune in because there's a little surprize :)

16/11/23

Hey guys, so I have some really unfortunate news...My grandmother died two days ago. There's a lot of craziness going on this week and I thought that I might still be able to update on sunday but I just can't. Normally I'd just update next sunday, but that falls on thanksgiving week and I won't have the time to work on it so... Yeah Captain Jellyfish chapter 51 won't be updated unti December 3rd. Sorry about that.

12/11/23

Oh my gosh I can't belive that the comic's second year anniversary has snuck up on me like this! Thank you to everyone who has supported Captain Jellyfish, I honestly couldn't have gone on for this long without you guys. I know I keep saying it, but you have no clue how happy I am that people even followed me over here to my own site. I know it's not perfect and I know there's still updates to be made, but from the bottom of my heart, thank you for supporting and reading Captain Jellyfish :)

10/11/23

Looking back on it it's really dumb how worried I was about people seeing my comic as a "dark magical girl comic" like dude who cares. I mean I wouldn't personally label it as a "dark" magical girl comic, but to each their own ig. Like I technically know why the reason I was so weird about it was beacuse I got freaked out by some jackass acting like dark magical girl shows personally killed the genre with their own two hands and the creators who make them get off on watching young girls suffer, but like looking back on it, it was just bad faith criticism likely rooted in frustration at the lack of diversity in recent magical girl shows.

5/11/23

Chapter 50 is now officially up! I added a little something in there, so I hope you enjoy it :)

28/10/23

I fixed pages 8, 48, and 49, sorry about that! Also I'm hearing about some iphone users having trouble viewing comic pages? I don't know how that happpened, but I'll try to figure out how to fix it!

Edit:Okay I think I fixed it???

27/10/23

The site updates are now complete, so just what's new?

1. Comic page layout

I took out the side columns for comic pages, as it was kind of a hassle to have to manually update each new list everytime a chapter updated. Besides, I don't think most people will go from chapter 7 to chapter 45, they'll probably just want to read from chapter to chapter.

2. Made the entire site mobile friendly

I finally fixed the site on mobile lmao. Sorry, I know I should've done it sooner, I just didn't have the time and figured that the way it was would've been fine until I got it fixed/formatted correctly. Thank you for your patience regarding the mobile formatting up until this point.

And that concludes the list of site updates for now! I'm sure that I'll need to do some major site updates for something or rather later down the line, but for now I'm happy with the site as is. Also, just as a reminder, make sure to fill out the Google form I made regarding whether not you'd be interested in an email list if you haven't done so already. Thank you! :)

26/10/23

And so the site updates begin! If you go any further make sure to bring a hard hat!

23/10/23

Just as a heads up, the site's going to under construction on thursday and friday, so be sure to check out the most recent chapter! Also, should I have an email list you guys can sign up for to let you know when Captain Jellyfish updates? IDK I was thinking about it, and I was hoping that it would be a nice little reminder, sort of like how webtoon would notify you when a series you subscribed to updated. Here's a google form you can use to vote lol

22/10/23

Chapter 49 is now officially up! I have to leave the house for a bit and I won't be back in time for when I usually update, so have an early chapter!

Edit:Okay I fixed the links, sorry about that

14/10/23

Thank you for 1000 hits! I know the hit counter is a bit jank(I got rid of the code but it's still somehow here???) but you have no idea how happy I am to see that people actually followed me over here lol

8/10/23

Chapter 48 is now officially up!

1/10/23

The comments are fixed! Once again thank you sm Ayano(creator of the widget), for helping me figure out the problem. The comments should work now :)

30/9/23

I'm currently working on fixing the issues with the comment widget, and this may take a hot minute until I get everything fixed. Sorry for the confusion and thank you for understanding!

24/9/23

Chapter 47 is now offcially up!

21/9/23

Thank you sm to the people who told me about the bugs on the site, I'm working on fixing them rn. As for chapter 47 being a duplicate of chapter 46, I must of gotten ahead of myself, since I'm in the middle of drawing that chapter rn lol. Thank you again!

Edit:

20/9/23

And we're live! Welcome to the new site everyone :) Here is another link to the doc I was talking about lol.

19/9/23

FUCK ME RUNNING I DELETED THE HOME PAGE. FUCK.

10/9/23

I'm currently assembling/getting the rest of the chapters ready for the website and let me tell you the urge to redraw them all is strong but the desire to get this site out at a reasonable time is stonger... (Seriously though thank you to everyone to put up with the raccoon scratch that is the first volume. I'm sure I'll say something similar in the future regarding the more recent chapters but that's a problem for future me lol)

4/9/23

Ough I'm going through webring lists and even though the site isn't done yet, I think it'd be fun to create a webring for ex-webtoon artists who moved to host their comic on their own site. I really want to find other artists who've ditched webtoon, and I feel like a webring would be a fun way to do that. I want to build a sense of community, something that I feel like webtoon doesn't have, not just with other artists but with the people reading my comic. *sigh* I better get back to work I still have *checks notes* only the first chapter up. I better fix that...
