Hi there!
As we wrote in our previous post, we´re currently working on a future Soul Chaser revamp. We´re starting by rewriting the full story and redesigning some characters :) You may see some of said redesigns on our Patreon feed. (Patron-only)
If you´d like to support us there (pledges are starting JUST 1$!), we´d be able to dedicate more time (and eventually work full time) on Soul Chaser again!
See you soon! :)

OMG! More than a year since we´ve updated this! ^^UUU
Hi dear subscribers. Thank you so much for still being there despite Soul Chaser hiatus. Your support means everything to us! (_ _) We´re really sorry to keep you waiting. Real life, work, family issues and lots of stuff have made this hiatus go longer than we expected. Sorry about that! We LOVE Soul Chaser and we´ll finish it, we promise!!
We´re rewriting the story as well as giving the characters a full makeover, hoping that in the future we´´ ll be able to restart everything and make a better version of it! The previous publisher didn´t allow us to make the story as dark and deep as we´d have liked...
We´ve opened a Patreon to post the full process there as well as sketches and lots of exclusive stuff!
If you´re so kind to support us there, we´ll be able to spend more hours working exclusively on Soul Chaser SOOO let´s cross fingers for a full comeback soon!

See you there! :D

Hi there!
Looks like Tapastic removed those awful ToS. Before doing anything else, we´ll wait a bit till we decide what to do with Soul Chaser. Thank you for your support and understanding!

Hello,
Just to let you know that if you're a subscriber to Soul Chaser, due to current Tapastic ToS, we're removing all chapters from this site within the next 24-48 hours. We know it's been on hiatus for years now, but our intention is to revamp both story and art in the (hopefully near) future and we can assure you it will NOT be uploaded here.
Thank you so much for your support through all this time. To keep updated on our news and hopefully some of them might involve Soul Chaser, please feel free to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram:

Sketching for fun a bit.
The Master of Ceremonies,remember him? T_T.

These days we've been thinking...SC has, been on hiatus since 2014 and sometimes I feel like starting over it... Meru's style has changed since then. And every time we come back to it, there are so many things from the script and narration we' d change now...
What do you think? Should we start it over again?

Thank you! Our intention is to continue it, of course. Our doubts are whether to rewrite it and start from scracht, or just continue where it is already :) But we'll finish it, that's for sure!

SWEET! *Has it been two years now? Holy cow!* HAPPY to hear that you'll finish and looking forward EAGERLY to its return! ^_^

Speaking for myself as a writer, I think you should keep what you have and not toss it out and begin all over again. You have a SOLID foundation for your story-which is AWESOME, WONDERFULLY CREEPY & TWISTY! AND I LOVE IT!-and, like I do repeatedly myself, you can always add, or take away, from it as you feel needs to be done in order for the story to progress. Build and/or change from what you have. In my opinion, I think you should continue it from where it is and not start over. ^_^

Have a WONDERFUL day, dears, and I'm truly looking forward to seeing The Soul Chaser's return! ^)^ CAN'T WAIT TO SEE! ^_^
