Yeah, for an accurate depiction the one on the left should be wearing a tank top, daisy dukes, and weigh about 150 pounds more than she does. She'd still be holding the burger and coke though (and possibly the gun as well).
Umm...yeah. And lots of Japanese girls prance about in swimsuits, hachimaki and tabi whilst carrying bamboo yari and a do-it-yourself seppuku kit. "Ever Onward", indeed...

It’s a sanbou, a small offering table. The washi (papers) are also part of the ritual. Basically, the stuff gets arranged on the table, you down some sake, write some cheery death poetry then grip the blade with some of the paper and get to hacking out your intestines. Fun stuff.
Only the Japanese could draw such broad characters of two countries and still come out on the bottom. Seriously, Double -D Blond chowing down on, while wearing a kickass top hat, while poor little Japanese girl gets stuck with a stick and a seppuku blade?
You guys haven't actually seen the doujin, or at least part of it, I take it?
I think I have the last page somewhere on my computer. The doujin ends with the girl representing Japan on the ground with her ass in the air, that bamboo (with her swimsuit at the top like a flag) firmly planted in her ass. This is all while the girl representing America has one of her boots on the other girl's lower back, her hand grasp the bamboo while men fawn over her and her victory.

I didn't want to because I don't have the full doujin and thought it might be better to just leave it open to someone to get the thing and find all pages.
No matter though. It was posted a year ago, but nobody ever gave it an artist tag.

"do-it-yourself seppuku kit"? Is there any other sort of seppuku?
