Have you been spending more and more time online? If so, then these two webtoons will be just the thing for you!
Artist
I decided for once to make this a two on one since both series were, in fact, two different series at one point. The artist here today is called PrincessHinghoi, another freelance artist with a whole host of other webtoons.
Summary
Internet Explorer follows the story of all of our different web browsers as cute anime girls with our resident Internet Explorer as our main heroine. Follow the adventures of this lovely browser as she tries to live her outdated life in a cruel, updated life.
Meme Girls is a comedy anthology story about memes and game consoles as cute anime girls.
Characters
While meme girls don't have any real characters, Internet Explorer has two main ones to discuss.
Internet Explorer: While I don't have much experience with her (I use Safari), I definitely would use her if it means she can for once have a smile. Due to her outdated mechanic's Internet Explorer is often forgotten in the grand scheme of the internet, so much so that it's difficult even to stay relevant. Despite it all with encouragement from friends, Explorer starts gaining more confidence in herself as the series progresses.
Google Chrome: In her bid to be at the top of the food chain (or digital chain), google chrome will destroy whoever stands in her way.
Overview
Both series have a glossy and light style, which makes sense given the tone of both stories. I love the creative character designs though, it's one thing to make just girl versions of objects, but you can tell effort is put in each scenario. Like Everywhere and Nowhere, both stories are an excellent way to learn about the World Wide Web, with one getting serialized. One being more of a comedy anthology.
I prefer IE, though, so it's serialized, and I think it tells history in a rather exciting way that makes me fall for the characters though meme girls are good if you know the memes in particular. As such, that means the jokes are naturally hit or miss.
Epilogue
PrincessHinghoi is a great artist, and I hope we can see more of their work as time goes on. But with these series both done, let's search up where the light takes us next.
