Aww, now that’s sad. But maybe Gina would be more likeable if not for her bragging about her grades, sucking up to the teachers (mostly Mrs. Godfrey), and getting other kids (mostly Nate) in trouble
DAN DAN DAAAAN!!!Dee Dee is in a really awkward situation right now. But maybe this is the beginning of a total makeover of Gina’s personality and appearance. Dee Dee is the only one who could help her doing that.
THIS is just starting to intrude on her thoughts?……???!!!!……O.K., had to go away a second there!……..anyway she’s likely asking the wrong person for an honest appraisal: she SHOULD be asking (drum roll please!!) NATE!! Tah-daaaaaaahh!!
ive got a good idea on why no one likes you gina, because you’re a mean, attention seeking know it all who acts like she’s better than everyone else, sucks up to the teachers, brags constanly, and worst of all, asks for extra homework.
Smart question. She recognizes that a true, measurable, problem exists and seeks assistance in correcting it from a source she knows is good and can trust…..
I’m betting my entire life savings that at the end of this arc Gina’s personality isn’t gonna change whatsoever. These arcs always start with a really good hook, and just end unfunny and literally change nothing.
Reviewing pretty much every Big Nate strip from here on out (tho I’m not against doing ones from the past), and it’s hard not to review this one in hindsight, knowing where it led (good and bad).
Never been a fan of Peirce’s cliffhangers in this post modern era shall we call it? (really since 2018). They usually tease something that is disproven or never goes anywhere around the same week. This one is no different, since duh, Gina isn’t actually going through character development and all she wanted was to know how to get Chad to like her.
In the spirit of fairness, I’ll rate it a 5/10, though, since back then this could have gone anywhere!
Also, Dee Dee isn’t a big fan of Gina herself, but I don’t blame Gina for going to her. Probably the closest she could get to a neutral voice.
