What AK Girl represents

What AK Girl represents will vary from person to person. This is why we wanted to ask contributors, supporters and a range of people what AK Girl represents for them. To start with, here is AK Girl’s profile video.

Special thanks to our featured sponsor, Sorrow Of A Furry Father. Find out more about this point-and-click puzzle adventure game about family love, reconciliation, and getting transformed into a fox by clicking the pic below!

Next up we have our video on What AK Girl represents and below a selection of quotes from the folks involved.

“What I love about Vibes aka AK Girl is how dynamic she is. She’s fun and outgoing, and although she can occasionally overstep the line, she is fiercely loyal and caring towards her friends, who she would do anything for. She’s outwardly confident, self assured and shows a great deal of strength, while dealing with her own doubts and worries. She’s a joy to voice” Hayley Evenett (voice of AK Girl, actor, writer and producer, also artist for the thumbnail!)

“AK Girl is fun with unique powers and personality has an interesting origin. I like how her outfit changes through comics.” MisterTime aka Timemaster1320, Discord (Fan artist/content creator)

“She’s my favorite character with a really deep story, and she’s very well written and someone a lot of people can relate to.” Anon

“AK Girl offers a look into the struggles of people with exceptional abilities. Many people wish they were amazingly intelligent, athletic, artistic, or the like. Yet, such people are often forced to deal with jealousy, unfair expectations (including those they place on themselves,) and more complicated problems. Sometimes, what looks like privilege feels like burdens.” Syos The Spaniel (Regular supporter)

“AK Girl is my favourite Reynard City character because she is strong, brave, never gives up and also a little bit cheeky, but she also has a vulnerablity about her, not the actual caramel vulnerability about her own feelings, she puts on a brave front and but doesn’t show her vulnerability and the caramel is a metaphor for how this builds up and eventually shows if we bottle up too much for too long” Susie Gander (Artist, creator of Perrywinkle and Lara Croft superfan)

“I like AK. And not just cause the blimping weakness. She’s headstrong but she still feels the impact of her choices and yet puts on a brave facade for her friends. “ Van Hikari (RP forum writer and legend)

“I love to see strong female characters in comics, and AK Girl is definitely one of my favourites! I like how her character is strong and brave, but also has a relatable vulnerable side.” Adventures of Lollipop (Webcomic creator)

“To me AK Girl represents the struggle of self discipline. She’s accepted the call to action, devoted her powers to the cause, but it’s the moment to moment self control that challenges her. It’s one thing to make the big choices at pivotal moments, but it’s the continual dedication that really makes a hero. Having her carmel-triggered achilles heel tied to her mental control gives the audience a window into that struggle.” Rev701 (Regular supporter)

“Even though I don’t know much about her, I really love how much she cares for Guillermo and her friends. She is willing to protect those who held a place in her heart ever since her first encounter with them. Friendships are important and their memories must be cherished at all times because you can never find friends as wonderful as them.”
Mercenary Master (Regular fanart contributor)

“I’d say she represents the upbeat and carefree heroine we not only would need, but also enjoy hanging out with. A plucky tomboy that doesn’t give a rat’s bottom about her shortcomings – primarily her allergy that messes with her appearance and fighting abilities – and keep prioritizing the safety and well-being of others. And I’m sure she’d be a riot at parties or just simply playing games like Mario Kart with.” Joe Draco Petterson (Reynard City Chronicles issue 2 artist)

So for me, I love seeing these different takes on what AK Girl represents- she has a number of sides in terms of her personality, her style, how she can both serious and playful, a superhero but also relatable. But what do you think? Please comment below.

Also keep an eye out- a new special edition of AK Girl Adventures is coming soon (more info on that to come!)
