Original Life is a funny Webcomic by any standards. The humor is light and friendly, centered around childhood and family life with the occasional Author Filibuster and whimsical foray into the absurd. It does not take itself too seriously, and neither should you. Read it for your own enjoyment rather than in the interest of one political agenda or another hunting Unfortunate Implications, for that is not how it is meant to be read.
While it deliberately lacks the narrative ambition of its parent series, it explores more general themes that most people can relate and aspire to, generously peppered with solid(and not at all overzealous as some would have you believe) philosophy, Aesops and heartwarming moments between intelligent, well-written characters who love each other and try to enjoy life as best they can, which is the overall message of the comic.
The author of Original Life has a sizable Hatedom which has unfortunately resulted in a lot of radical and sometimes unfair reviews and judgements, but the series is genuinely funny, accessible, lighthearted and intelligently written, and is certainly worth a read from anyone looking for a laugh and a good Slice of Life story, with charming and adorable art to sweeten the deal.
Friendly, Funny and Intelligent.
