What a fascinating question this is.
Tumblr media
Being "inappropriately sexual" is basically the entire shtick of every Guardian Beast we've seen so far. Unicorn is definitely worse than the others, but it's a nearly universal trait among them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And it's hardly like this was a huge secret. The whole premise of Merro and Boar's relationship is that she was hoping for a sexy bishounen husbando and she's mid-key pissed that she got a big fat ugly guy. And Tabi was here for this conversation so it's not like she's been kept out of the loop.
Tumblr media
Now, obviously, Unicorn's actions were a completely different level from anything Boar or anyone else has done, but the specific wording of Tabi's question is really downplaying what actually happened. And it might be as simple as "Tabi is trying to work up to the subject gradually", but it does seem like the summoners were not properly prepped for what's apparently a common occurrence, which they knew about but only kind of vaguely, in the way that makes me think that Magnolia Siddell has some kind of theme or subtext happening here in this comic about college-aged women having uncomfortable sexual experiences with man-shaped beasts. Like there's some kind of metaphor going on, beyond just the obvious "Merro summoning Boar = regretted one-night stand" stuff. There's a broader societal point being made here, that's worth paying attention to as the comic progresses, and likely Alunara's reaction to Tabi's question is likely going to be critical in understanding the nuances of this comic's message.

You make eye contact with the cutest new summoner at the party but her weird beast summon is also making eye contact and you wish he wouldn't
Love Tabi and Unicorn so much from Magnolia Siddell's Golden Boar webcomic. Tabi is so cute and Unicorn is the worst it's great.

A young woman joins a group of summoners who call forth Guardian Beasts to protect their isolated magical island. Unfortunately, her Guardian Beast is nothing like she'd imagined, and he's about to change everything in her life, and everything she thought she knew about herself… Start reading The Golden Boar today!

Spoiler for the newest page of Golden Boar!
HES ALIVE HE IS ALIVE REV DIDNT DIE INTO THE FOREST SKEWERED BY A WEIRD DEER!
I was seriously wondering if his scheme was leaving the island and going out into the world never to be seen again, but that would have been a weird place to take the story. "Here's this fun character. He's never gonna show up again because he left and the protagonist thinks he died and got eaten"
Well alright. He is not dead for now, because he doesn't look like he's doing well. His beast isnt large like Merro's, and yet... doesnt look good at all. At least he's smiling....?

I must apologize for not commenting about The Golden Boar, from the same creator of Monster Pulse (a webcomic I started reading a few times but never caught on and continued to the end, and I also apologize for that), but to be honest it took a while to pick up and I didn't feel anything that gave me this urge to comment. Which is not to say it's bad, but it just did't create an itch.
The current, chapter, though, is frankly incredible and it kind of enters in the meat of the comic's lore, that is, that people summon magical forest animals as gijinkas. The funny thing that I had to say about this page in particular (although, to be honest, the last several pages) is that The Boar is teased in the prologue as one half of an "Odd Couple" dynamic, a fact that is only made weirder when summoned beasts are shown later as having the kind of special bond that feels like an obvious metaphor for something a bit higher in the age bracket, but after The Boar shows up as a character he has been turning up to be a good dude. A little intense and too much at times, but overall very much a cool man.
And if you have not yet read this comic and will start now, I hope you have as much fun as I had with the introduction of the Unicorn. Excellent pages, I tell you.

THE GOLDEN BOAR
~Prologue, Page 5 & 6~
(Intended for more mature readers)
Now that the wordless sequence is over, I'm gonna go to one-page updates for the rest of this week, I think.
KIND OF wish I had done a better job depicting that Great Tree, but it was the best I could do at the time, I think. Maybe a redraw for the (eventual) book is warranted.
Reminder: While the prologue is updating, this comic will update with at least one new page every weekday! Once the prologue is finished, it will update Tuesdays and Thursdays, just like it does on the main website!
This feed will always be behind the main website. If you want to read almost 150 pages of the story, check it out at www.thegoldenboar.com!
Thanks for reading and enjoy the story!

Can you find your creator?
@idkfitememate you know that question I asked a while ago about the number of creators? totally didn’t mean anything lol
The canvas is pretty crowded but I’m happy with it. I had to miniaturize some creators though, cuz some were too large
I love those rough pencils, man
Also I didn’t realize the tiger creator was probably supposed to be a normal tiger until I finished
Wolflord had to go mini and pop up from a portal to fit lol, and the hydra was sentenced to a bucket. I’m so creative :) melusine was hardest to draw because of ELBOWS wait I take that back, the weasel was hardest-I could never get it right
Overall I’m confident about this drawing 😊
Plus there’s a special appearance in the drawing, can you find it? ;)
Posting from my iPad again, hope it works like last time

Pretend to be what you will, but under the light of the full moon, there's no more room for playing at civility (you are a monster, and you cannot control your nature)
