I thought that the story was good, but you should really work on pacing for this. It took you almost 6 years to complete this, and depending on how many more chapters you have, if the pacing from 2-3 years ago is anything to go by, it could be another 6 years or more before the next chapter is finished.
I'm not saying that the story is bad. I really like the art style, even if I don't agree with everything the characters do, but if the pacing for the next chapter is as slow as this chapter was, many new fans aren't going to stay around to find out what happens in the next chapter.

Sure, all true, but depending on how many chapters he has planned, if this comics' pacing was anything to go by, it could be another 6 years before the next chapter is finished and no one has any ideas on how many chapters he plans on making. And even if the next chapter, rhetorically speaking, is the last chapter, it wouldn't change the fact that based on this comic, that it's something that's, hypothetically, 12 years in the making.
Exaggerating a bit here, but in the time this comic started and the time it was finished most studios can make a high budget film, usually in less time. And my problem isn't even the fact that it took as long as it took to finish this chapter. It's more that Pandapaco doesn't ever tell his fans/followers about any delays in this comic and that he expects his fans to be contempt to wait half a year for pages to get uploaded. This time, I'm not exaggerating.
Page 39 was uploaded on June 23 18. Page 40 wasn't uploaded until January 30 19, more than half a year after the previous page with no indications of the length or any journals explaining the long delay. And he did it again in the exact same year. Page 41 was uploaded on April 30 19 and page after that wasn't uploaded until October 29 that year almost half a year and again with no explanations. For the few other furry comics I've read, the author will usually write a journal explaining why it's been a while why a page in there comic hasn't been uploaded. Pacopanda never gives any updates on explanations.
Does he really think/believe his fans/followers will stay interested after taking so long for finishing and uploading the pages? I know I wasn't after the pacing dropped significantly, and I liked looking forward to pages when this first started. The art is great, the story leaves a bit to be desired, at least to me, but at least I was interested in what would happen next. And even as a passion project like you and others might interpret/imply, it doesn't change the fact that it took 5 years and 10 months to finish this chapter and no one knows how long it'll be until the full story, however chapters it may be, will be finished and after this story's pacing, I can safely assume it'll be more than a decade.

After speaking to the lovely man myself, i've gotten to know him in a way some people don't.
He does these for him! These are stories about him, so there isn't a plot which he just whips up and throws on the table, he puts his heart and soul into this. It shouldn't matter if it takes him 1 month or 10 years.
Theres is much going on and i appreicate you're not to know Kamon but CelicQ is completely correct on this. Bare in mind this is his job now so the comic comes when he has time and the passion to do so, he needs to feel the emotion otherwise it wouldn't be potrayed properly, yes it has been a long time but hell i'd wait double that if I had to.
I personally don't believe he should have to tell anyone anything, as time goes on you'll either forget or have a pleasant suprise and get to relive the story again, theres so much more i want to learn about Paco but reality is, it's not really any of our business other than to people are have paid for the service. I just support the man and hope for all the success and happiness in the world to him

Yep, next door neighbors at that. For a time, I always had to rely on connections I made at school. AW HE SPOKE! *Laughing.* That's exactly what I would say! ... *Sigh.* Aw, they're both so precious, I really wish I could give them both a hug, AND give a hug to the panda who made this possible and made an appearance in this story.
