| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) | comment |
Alternative explanation in simpler English: in the future of an alternate universe, animals have evolved human-level intelligence, and are trying to develop a society comparable to that of humans. Just like humans, people have different opinions about what the best way to do this might be. Naturally this can result in fighting — both figurative and literal.This is the idea behind Zachary Braun's Nature Of Nature's Art: an experimental webcomic with martial arts, talking animals, plenty of big words, flashy special effects and potentially frightening imagery. It's also a character drama with surprisingly deep, psychological and difficult themes, dealing with such subjects as exploitation and insanity. And the art is spectacular, despite being drawn in oekaki.So far, the comic consists of three self-contained story arcs, all of which have been completed. In order of publication, they are: 10%+: It is the year 2108. Meander, a maned wolf and college student, develops a metanoia (an innovative martial arts style) which allows him to focus his attention on dozens of things at once — but this turns out to be damaging to his mind. Meanwhile, two teachers at the same college have been working on a solution to an economic crisis: turn wild coyotes into mindless slaves. When Meander finds out, he is outraged. Cue the epic battle. Secretary: SV is an eccentric degu who basically wants to be famous - but in animal society, that requires inventing something which can be used to help it progress. His idea? Years ago, his tooth stopped growing after he was bitten by his older brother; he decides to try harnessing the power which stops it from growing. This leads him to enroll in the college, become markscraft to a jerboa called XZ, fight to keep his mind outside of convention, go into self-imposed exile, and discover a terrifying power. But what is its secret? What is malice, and what causes it? Lycosa: This arc is about SPIDERS. Specifically, it stars Lycosa gulosa, a "spider ronin" who's looking for her lost egg sac. Meanwhile, a group of spiders called the Venom 8 Team are trying to create some sort of internet-like information network... using egg sacs. Guess who's unhappy when she finds out that her unhatched kids have been stolen? Solar System: Several hundred years after the events of 10%, humans and animals have united their societies, and animal factures have been used to advance human technology in all areas of society. A small company's mission into space is interrupted by extraterrestrial invaders, and to get back to Earth in time to save it, they must meet and ally with the other sapient societies of the solar system. Syconium: XX is a stoat with two innate gifts: abstract painting, and amazing physical beauty. After society fails to appreciate her artwork, she takes up prostitution to make ends meet. However, she soon catches the attention of the Moral Guardians, and is escorted to a brothel where escape is both literally and figuratively impossible. As her trapped situation becomes clear, her passionate artist persona is slowly replaced by a seductress facade, and nobody seems really interested in knowing the real XX. Is there still a way for her to return to being a respectable member of society? Wild Style: Not so much an arc as a series of gag a day comics. It's had cameos from Secretary protagonist SV and 10%+ protagonist Meander, but not much else to connect it the other arcs thematically beyond sapient animals. Pika: Braun's contribution to April Fools' Day, which proved so popular that it's now permanently up on the site. A Pokémon trainer takes a very unorthodox approach to training a Pikachu. (Be warned: it's all on one long page.)In addition to the above, the author has stated that there is a complete but as of yet unreleased story involving ungulates, (presumably deer).In addition, there is a print version of 10%+ which comes in six volumes, along with a seventh called The 10%+ Addendum. Secretary was also made into a print version, in four volumes. There's also a a print version of Lycosa's prologue titled (we promise you) Untitled, which comes with a car-themed calendar. Wild Style is expected to become a print version.The webcomic — which updates as often Braun can manage it, usually weekdays at minimum — can be found here. | |

Instant Expert: When major characters learn Metanoia/Telenoia, they tend to also learn all of their factures within the systems. Most obvious when SV unlocks the Telenoia of Malice and Lycosa taps The Power Of "I". | |

Genre Shift | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_177a6464 | comment |
Genre Shift: The first few arcs are pretty much Xenofiction. Then there's Solar System, which has humans and sapient animals mingling, focuses on technology, features aliens as the antagonists, and is generally a different kind of sci-fi to what we've seen in the comic before. | |

He Who Fights Monsters | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_2c1f1138 | comment |
She Who Fights Monsters: Lycosa Gulosa certainly has shades of this in her brutality, apathy, and penchant for black humor each time she offs an enemy. Though, ultimately this led to Lycosa's heroic Mega Manning of her enemies — she understood the individual identity, uniqueness and worth of her enemies and internalized them, leading to her invention of her own metanoia. | |

| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_2e528f4e | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Cute?: One could argue that the entire purpose of Lycosa is to challenge this trope, by making the audience sympathise with realistically-drawn, (somewhat) realistically-behaving spiders. So far, it seems to be working. | |

Rule of Cool | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_36e63b81 | comment |
Rule of Cool: The martial arts styles thrive on this trope (one example being a style that turns your teeth red and apparently rips some of the blood out of your opponent). And even in Lycosa the rule's in full effect. An early fight scene can basically be summed up as, "a fist fight while bungee-jumping". | |

| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_4dbd3706 | comment |
Clap Your Hands If You Believe/Your Mind Makes It Real: The animals' martial arts styles run at least partially on this, to the point that denial is a viable combat tactic. There's also mention of a "telenoetic barrier" which, if pierced, makes denial useless; this is what can potentially make telenoises dangerous. | |

Improvised Weapon | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_4de1a4f7 | comment |
Improvised Weapon: Lycosa of, um, Lycosa uses plenty of improvised weaponry, as her compulsion to carry an egg sac drives her to pick up debris in its place, which becomes weaponry when she gets into a fight. Thanks to spiders being so much smaller than humans, a pill effectively becomes a gigantic club, and the prongs of a capacitor make a dangerous lance. Lampshaded when she tries to adopt a golf ball for this purpose, only to abandon it because it's way too big for her. Somehow, she manages to use an even bigger weapon later on... a desktop electric fan! | |

Painting the Medium: One page of Secretary is a blank webpage, presumably to convey loss of consciousness. If that wasn't enough, towards the end, the webpages change background colour to go along with the comic doing the same. Lycosa goes even further; aside from an above-mentioned Art Shift, you have to mouse over the speech bubbles in order to read them. | |

Calling Your Attacks | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_71bd62b9 | comment |
Calling Your Factures: If someone's calling the facture they're using, the name of the facture and/or style is emphasised. How emphasised? On one end of the spectrum, bigger and bolder letters are used. On the other end, it might as well be called Calligraphy Porn. This went up to eleven in Lycosa, with its animated speech bubbles. Lycosa's facture names must be seen to be believed. | |

| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: So what caused the differences between this Earth and ours? The moon formed differently. note Specifically the comic follows the idea that in our universe, a Mars-sized space object crashed into a very young Earth, and this began the process that created our moon. That didn't happen in the NofNA 'verse. The print version of Secretary had another unlikely divergence point from the web version. A different eye turned red. | |

Art Shift | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_912b24c4 | comment |
Art Shift: On page 248 of Secretary, XZ "morphs" from a highly stylised Pikachu-like jerboa to being drawn much more realistically. In addition, from page 254 on, the previously monochrome story has COLOUR in it; this in turn leads up to a shift to full-colour after SV dies. Lycosa's prologue and epilogue are done in the comic's usual full-colour style, but for the story proper it changes to a more "painted" style, possibly to reflect the fact that spiders percieve the world differently than we do. Furthermore, when Lycosa awakens the Power of I and invents a metanoia, the aliased and painterly style of the comic ceases to apply to her and she is drawn with unaliased clarity and definition. Wild Style is a black-and-white comic except for the final (so far?) page, which is done in full colour. A game within the comic in Solar System has anime-style art, as well as old-school pixel sprites. The guy playing the game is still done in the comic's usual style, though. | |

Medium Blending: In Lycosa, animated arrows appear in the speech bubbles you have to highlight to translate the spider speech every so often in order to better demonstrate the sense of movement, surprise, or the emotions a spider face is completely incapable of conveying. Later on in the arc, animated speech bubbles are used to elaborate the supernatural quality of Lycosa's factures with ridiculously complex animations | |

Foreshadowing: When Pisaurina siccs a mantis on her, Lycosa briefly tries to scare it away by acting like a mantis herself, before realizing that's a stupid idea given the circumstances. After escaping, Lycosa remarks that it's cool in theory, but would probably only work with other spiders. The Power Of I is a metanoia based on Power Copying other spiders through mimicry. | |

Shout-Out: Pikachu has a cameo appearance in one comic. And then there was Pika. "GET OVER HERE!!" With an animated Scorpion cameo, no less! One of the games on Abe's high score list is Raidendendendendenden Jr. & Lil' Son. Lycosa exclaims "son of a muffet" when attacked by a mantis. Nursery rhymes, anyone? | |

A game within the comic in Solar System has anime-style art, as well as old-school pixel sprites. The guy playing the game is still done in the comic's usual style, though. | |

Decoy Protagonist: With his character development and focus at the start of 10%+, Meander certainly seems to be the arc's hero. Sadly, his personality is destroyed halfway through, passing the torch to Quintet to finish the story. | |

Translation Convention | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_e11b003d | comment |
Translation Convention: In 10%+ and Secretary, characters are assumed to be speaking the common language when their text is handwritten (and looks "rougher"). When speaking their species's own tongue (which can still be learned by some other animals) their text is typed in a very clean, simple font. In Lycosa, it is implied that spiders somehow communicate visually, with little speech bubbles filled with images depicting what the spider wishes to convey to others that must be moused over for a proper English translation. | |

Individuality Is Outdated: Venom 8's plan to borrow eggsacs from every spider wasn't some diabolical scheme by they and their supporter's estimation due to this trope. Every one else was so thoroughly on board with it, it hadn't occurred to them that someone would object. | |

One-Steve Limit: Played straight as a plot point in Lycosa, despite the spiders only using scientific names for themselves. Two spiders of the same species are using different classifications for themselves, giving them different genus names. | |

A Dog Named "Dog" | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_efd11fe3 | comment |
A Dog Named "Dog": In a variant, every named spider character in Lycosa goes by their species' scientific name. It also takes advantage of how one particular species of spider is known by multiple scientific names: "Lycosa gulosa" and "Gladicosa gulosa". There's even an equivalent for first name/last name basis; species name is used mainly in a familiar context (Lycosa calls Pisaurina "Mira", for instance), while genus name appears to be more formal for talking to strangers (and is used in dialogue tags). | |

Mundane Utility | |

Mundane Utility: Possible inversion; very few styles are used exclusively for combat. Many are/were developed for non-combat use and just happened to be useable in combat (for example, Meander's metanoia). In fact, there are actually styles which are not supposed to be used to attack someone! | |

Theme Naming | |
| Nature of Nature's Art (Webcomic) / int_fd94c4ac | comment |
Theme Naming: The various moves of the styles are often (but not always) named like this. Some examples: both versions of SV's malice style and Lycosa's factures. At least some of Solar System's characters have a space theme going on in their names - Yuri is likely named after Yuri Gargarin, Able after a monkey who went to space, and Strelka after a Russian space dog. (She even points out that there's a reason she wasn't named Laika.) Floral Theme Naming: A fair few animals take their names (or nicknames) from plantlife, such as Amanita and Talinum from 10%+ and Chrysanthemum, Marigold (SV) and Nutsedge (XZ) from Secretary. Note that Nutsedge is the only female character on this list. | |
