I wonder if there is more to the reason of why she is giving the 'corrosive' pie. I mean, the girl that is eating it is wounded already. It is interesting though in 'reading' the scan. The first pic shows bottles and what-not and what looks like a black feather inside. It is like the pantry of the terrible kitchen the pie was made in. The maid brings the feather maybe to the girl who is the holder of the pie. And other girl eats it and collapses showing the feet in the bottom frame and her losing her shoe of course from the fall. This is a very mysterious scan and yes I am very bored and that is why I had to analyze the daylights out of it :D
My Personal Scan
Here's a beautiful, but strange little piece by Tukiji Nao hot off the scanner/out the oven. The text makes little sense, but indicates that someone is committing acts of unusual cruelty.
Just what has been baked into that pie? The plate the girl at the top is carrying has a black feathered wing on it, which reminds me of the line "four and twenty blackbirds, baked in a pie" from the Nursery Rhyme 'Sing a Song of Six Pence'. Yet the text says it is corrosive pie which sounds acidic, and painful for the poor soul who eats it!
As ever, it has lots of luscious Victorian frills, and when combined with the muderous intentions of the subject matter the whole image becomes something akin to Sweeney Todd. Very mysterious & very deadly.

*shudder* Is it just me or is the girl at the bottom with the fork in her mouth (holding the pie) is evil? I swear that her expression, her eyes especially, convey that there's something wrong with her. Heck, I think the whole image is creepy. Good candidate for further analysis I'd say.
Good one... Thanks.

This work is stunning. Definately full of a mysterious wonder. I love the whole style of the artwork and the shades of colors used. I'm lov'n it! The pie is tempting however.

Tukiji-sensei is indeed very surreal... and scary *shivers*. Although the art is always a little bit eccentric when it comes to nursey rhimes/fairy tales, it's always gorgeous. And I think I like the creepy feeling it has, don't know why...
Thanks for sharing! -

This scan is pretty gorgeous, creepy and wicked at the same time n I like it. XD
It seems the girl that was given the pie was hanged of a tree.~ The blonde girl is really cute as well as the one giving out the pie. One has an empty expression as if dead while the other ones seems insane n wicked. Really creepy but nice to me~ And I like those stylish shoes~! XD
Thanks a lot for sharing n +fav..! -

Love your analysis of this picture XD I liked your reference to Six Pence...yeah, that pie is a bit suspicious...even so, I really like this piece of artwork as well. The side panels give it a comic-ish look, but that adds to the beauty. Thank you!

A tad bit disturbing, I must admit, but intriguing all the same - I think what I love most about Green Glass' work is the fact it is so unique - well that and that is so detailed!
Also, I love seeing a victorian style anime - a very nice touch :D

it's disturbing and yes I don't think she falls and loses her shoe. She hangs from a tree...This is weird. It reminds me of a British horror series HEX.
