Trivia / Rain (2010)

Go To

  • Ascended Fanon
    • After a friend of the author thinks up the name Jerky McJerkface for Gavin, the author decided to make it canon.
    • Page 191 is titled "RuIn", after the fandom's most popular contraction for shipping Rain and Rudy. Notably, the page depicts an romantic embrace between the aforementioned characters.
    • Ana's full name was decided after a comment from a reader.
  • Bonus Material: Jocelyn is interspersing bonus omake strips between her regular chapters under the title "Rain Delay".
    • There's also some book only stuff.
  • Creator Backlash: Jocelyn has not looked back fondly on the first chapters(Chapters 1-3), mainly due to them containing outdated messages and beliefs.
  • Dear Negative Reader: Every time a character is revealed to be LGBTQ, readers complain that it is unrealistic to have so many queer/trans characters. The author now writes a statement after every reveal that it is not true and she is tired of it, so she would prefer the readers keep it to themselves.
  • What Could Have Been: The story was originally planned as a first-person fantasy story instead of slice-of-life. Differences include Fara not being blood related, Maria being a Love Interest, Ky being a cis-gendered minor character (though still bi), and Emily being the Big Bad, older, and the Love Interest of Aiken. The story was reworked as what it is now due to being unintentionally offensive towards other trans people due to the author's lack of knowledge about trans people at the time.
  • Write What You Know: The comic centers on a teenage trans girl who's a massive fan of manga and retro games. Author Jocelyn Samara is a trans woman herself and is also a huge lover of manga, anime, and retro games.
