Chapter 71: Progress II
A comic discussion group created spontaneously by a reader.
"So, what the hell is this? Shedaiba is....... Dead?"
"Probably not! She's the heroine, how can this work be painted when the heroine dies?"
"Have you forgotten?Didn't the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance chapter say that it was going to end?So the author finished the work by the way after drawing Xuedaiba to death....... Is that what Mr. Shui Xin meant?"
"Didn't you say that a new chapter will be opened after the end of the remembrance chapter? Xue Daiba has already made it clear that it is the heroine of this work, what do you draw in the new chapter when she dies? Could it be that Teacher Shuixin wants to draw a junior?"
"Don't say it, it's disgusting to think about such a plot, if Xuedaiba is really dead, Shuixin and I will be black all my life, and I will definitely not look at all his works in the future......."
"Do you think it's just the author's bad taste, although on the last page of the thirteenth chapter, Xuedaiba blocked a sword for Kenshin in the front, and was slashed by Kenshin in the back, but maybe she was just injured? The author didn't make it clear that she was dead, right?"
"Upstairs, do you think about it? The strongest monster swordsman Kenshin in the Roger Kenshin Remembrance, and the enemies who can fight him for a short time, such a desperate blow from the two masters all slashed at Ba, an ordinary woman, if Ba hadn't died....... Isn't that a joke about these two people?"
"Jokes are jokes, or can it be arranged like in the movie plot, and the knife drawn as a frontal enemy is slashed on jewelry, watches, etc., and the plot of blocking the damage can be explained?"
"Anyway, the pen is in Shuixin's hand, and he can draw as much as he wants. ”
"What about the sword on the opposite side?"
"Oh, why do you talk so much? Isn't it okay to wear a string of gold and silver jewelry or something behind your back........?
These people who discuss peacefully in the discussion group are still fans of reason.
As for the irrational .......
The entrance of the cuttlefish comics club.
A group of comic fans gathered and held billboards.
Strongly oppose the water heart to draw Xuedaiba to death.
Shuixin, you're just a comic strip drawer, what do you know about the Roger Kenshin Remembrance?
If Xuedaiba dies, I will be a fan of Manga for ten years and will no longer buy Manga.
They didn't rush into the comic club, but the demonstration in front of the comic club still made a lot of people talk.
......
Soon, even on the official website of the Dragon Star Awards, these fans of Luo Province who bought the manga magazine spread the news that Xuedaiba was suspected of being painted to death by Shuixin to the comment area of the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance chapter.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
It's still Friday, and it won't be until Saturday to watch the latest episode of Rogue Kenshin's Memories on the official website of the Dragon Star Awards.
They could only hear the new episode of the plot dictated by the comic fans in Luo Province, but just the content of the dictation made them feel cold.
Was slashed by Kenshin?and was also slashed by the uncle who wanted to kill Kenshin?
How can this live?
After all, in the previous plot, Kenshin killed cleanly, just like the killer Kenshin killed before Kenshin and Xuedaiba met for the first time.
was ....... from head to toe by Kenshin's sword
If the plot is really like this, then how does Xuedaiba live?
Below the comment area, it doesn't matter if Shui Xin will read the comment area, anyway, many comic fans posted.
All kinds of requests to the author not to draw dead snow daiba.
There are also squirting ones.
and threatened that if Shuixin drew Ba to death, he would use the identity information of his family and friends to register an account and brush up on a batch of evaluations.
.......
The plot of the thirteenth chapter of the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance Chapter made many comic fans of this work depressed all day.
However, although Chu Yu, who was leisurely in school, looked at the comments on the Internet with his mobile phone during class, he only glanced at it a few times, and he ignored it directly.
The situation today is basically similar to what he predicted.
After all, this sentence is not only out of context, but the plot is too explosive.
A heroine who spent the entire reminiscence chapter to create, Xuedaiba, died like this.
It's normal to be unacceptable.
But...... In the end, we still have to accept it.
The thirteenth chapter just happened to leave a suspense, and when the fourteenth and fifteenth chapters were serialized together next week, this suspense will also be broken.
.......
After nearly three weeks of dissemination on the official website of the Dragon Star Award, basically many screen names who like to come to this website to find comics to watch have already known about the works entered by the Dragon Star Award.
The most popular and most watched work is the blazing feather of Qin provincial cartoonist Zhang Yun.
And the work with the highest reader rating and the best reputation is the reminiscence of the rogue Kenshin by the cartoonist Shui Xin in Los Angeles.
Since the first day of the competition, among so many works, the work with the number one fan value has always been Blazing Feather.
Now the fan value has reached 980,000.
I have to say that this data is already quite exaggerated.
This means that there are nearly a million people who pay to watch the manga online.
And the Rogue Kenshin Reminiscence,The increase in fan value in this week is because of the gradual fermentation of word of mouth.,In the case of the slowdown in the growth rate of fan value of most works,Actually bucked the trend.,The increase has increased.,From more than 300,000 fans last week,Rose to 600,000 fans this week.,Temporarily ranked fifth.。
This is undoubtedly a good result for a comic from Los Angeles Province.
Midnight.
The update for the thirteenth chapter of the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance Chapter has finally been uploaded.
Compared with usual, because there is a day to spread the news of Xuedaiba's suspected sacrifice on the Internet, and this work attracts Internet passers-by fans all the time.
The number of people waiting for this sentence is undoubtedly a huge increase compared to the previous two weeks.;
Among these people who are waiting for a watch late at night.
Naturally, there is Zhang Yun, the author of the fiery feather.
After reading the plot of the latest episode.......
He was confused.
What is this operation?
How can anyone play like that?
You draw her to death for the popular character of the work, don't you know that this is a big poison point in comic creation? The popularity of this work will definitely decline, and if the fans are unhappy and maliciously give the work a low score, aren't you afraid that the comic score of this work will be lowered?
"Hahaha!" Zhang Yun's editor couldn't help laughing.
"Sure enough, I heard some of my friends in the comic book industry in Luo Province say that Shui Xin, the author of the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance chapter, is just a young man. ”
"Really, too young......" he shook his head.
"Linked to the announcement made by this work last week, this work will be completed in two weeks. ”
The editor raised his head and looked at Zhang Yun.
"What can you think of when you combine this information?"
Zhang Yun took a deep breath and said.
"It's unfinished!"
"That's right. Zhang Yun's editor.
"It's not surprising that a young man has an inspiration in his head to come up with a work with a particularly attractive early plot, but how can comics be so simple?"
"How many well-known cartoonists are because they can't control the plot of the middle and late comics, and their popularity plummets after the end of the story, and the fans accumulated over the years are lost, and they have been in a slump since then. ”
"As far as I know, Shui Xin is just a rookie cartoonist in Luo Province, and it has only been a few months since he emerged, such a person, after drawing the first half of the classic Rogue Kenshin Reminiscence, the plot collapsed, and it is normal that he can't end it. ”
"Now it seems that Shui Xin should have noticed this a long time ago, so he hurriedly prepared to finish this work, and even in order to have a good plot at the end, he directly drew the popular heroine to death, so as to attract people's attention....."
"But it's useless.,The end result will only be counterproductive.,Readers' eyes are bright.,Look at it.,As soon as the two words of this work are published next week,The word-of-mouth and high ratings it has accumulated will collapse......."
The editor looked at Zhang Yun.
"Although the final result is not yet available, I think we should be able to celebrate in advance......"
"In this Dragon Star Award selection, the only variable has been played by itself, and the rest of the works are not to worry about, we won ......."
.......
Magic City, a high-rise in a community.
Tang Xin watched the serialization of the latest Rogue Kenshin on the Internet.
The mood could not be calmed down for a long time.
"Ba, dead ......."
is different from those pure comic fans, those people still have doubts about the life and death of Xuedaiba, but as an excellent cartoonist in the magic capital, she can feel the direction of this comic.
Unfinished?
No, it's not.
Tang Xin shook his head, usually there will be signs of bad endings.
Although the plot of this work is not long, from the beginning to the present, the foreshadowing is one link after another.
At the beginning, the samurai that Kenshin kills is Ba's fiancé, Kenshin and Katsura's liaison is a traitor, and Ba approaches Kenshin for revenge.......
If you don't think about these things at the beginning, you can't draw them with a pen.
But since it has been conceived clearly, it means that Ba's death was arranged a long time ago, not a plot scribbled by the author because the plot collapsed.......
Xuedaiba was so well shaped in the early stage, and he painted it to death casually, then readers will definitely not buy it, and it will definitely be a bad review when the time comes.
But if such a plot can be handled....... It must be a plot that can earn the tears of comic fans and make people moved.
Tang Xin sat and pondered for a long time, she was imagining, if she was Shuixin, how could such a plot be recognized by comic fans.
In the end, she gave up, she couldn't think of it at all, no matter what, Xuedaiba was so well shaped, the death of such a person, even if it was to save Kenshin's death, everyone would not be willing to accept it.
Although the ending of the family carnival is cliché, why everyone loves to use it, that is, there is no risk in such an ending, although it is inevitable to complain about two sentences, but it can be accepted immediately after spitting out.
But if you have to make some strange plots, such as letting a popular heroine like Ba die.......
That is to dance on the tip of the knife, and if you don't handle it well, this work will immediately collapse.
Tang Xin sighed.
I hope Shuixin can solve this problem with the plot of the last two words.
She is a fan of this work very early, and she really doesn't want this work to end up being scolded by everyone in the end.
......
With a variety of rhythms, the work of Rogue Kenshin Remembrance has finally ushered in a new week.
Two days before the end of the first round of the Dragon Star Awards.
On this day, Friday, it is the day when the fourteenth and fifteenth chapters of the Rogue Kenshin Reminiscence are published together.
The Cuttlefish Manga Club has long been ready to promote it throughout the province of Luo.
Advertising spaces in the streets, buses, bookstore posters, subways, and underground passages are all advertised.
He Jin walked into the bookstore and saw at a glance the promotional poster posted in the bookstore about the Memories of Rogue Kenshin.
In the past few weeks, because of the publication of this manga, the sales of Manga have continued to rise, and many times if you buy it late, this issue will basically be sold out.
But fortunately, he came in early, and at this time, the office workers had not yet finished work, and the students had not yet finished school.
The bookstore has not yet reached the point where it is sold out.
However, in front of the counter of the bookstore that He Jin entered, there was already a long queue, and among these queues, there were five or six out of ten, and the books and periodicals in their hands were all comics.
He Jin, who returned home, couldn't wait to open the cover, and directly turned the pages to the serial part of the Rogue Kenshin Remembrance chapter.
The manga didn't sell off.
In just a few pages, the final ending of Xuedaiba is explained.
Xuedaiba, who suffered heavy injuries both before and after, used a knife to cut a scar on Kenshin's face before he died, and crossed with the scar left by her fiancé on Kenshin's face before his death, forming a cross.
When she was dying, she just smiled and looked at Kenshin and said.
I'm sorry...... Husband.
He Jin suddenly seemed to understand the meaning of this injury.
The first wound, left by Xuedaiba's fiancé, represents Kenshin's hatred for taking his life.
The second wound, which was left by Sedaiba before his death, represents forgiveness and redemption.
It fits perfectly with the title of this subsection, Cross Wound.
All of a sudden, He Jin's tears welled up, and his nose was a little sour.
But fortunately, I am an adult, and I still control myself.
So, it has been confirmed that Xuedaiba is really dead.......
In the past week, He Jin has also made many comments on the Internet, what would happen to him if Shui Xin painted Xuedaiba to death.
But at the moment, he can't remember those things anymore, but the emotions have been completely carried into the comics.
People who love anime are often very emotional and can be easily moved by these plots, and now, He Jin is in such a state.
Ba's death was drawn in just a few pages, and He Jin continued to read page after page of comics.
But inexplicably, he was a little irritable in his heart.
The rest of the plot seems to look a little boring after Ba's death.
Summoned by Katsura, Kenshin burned Ba's body along with the house where the two lived in seclusion and returned to Kyoto.
Kenshin doesn't seem to be the same as before.
The fifteenth episode is the end of this work, but the plot of the whole episode is about the battle between Kenshin and the enemy.
Although the battle scenes are exciting and the storyboards are breathtaking, it is clear that this kind of content is not what He Jin wants to see.
It's not the ending of the Roger Kenshin Remembrance that he imagined.
But he still patiently prepared to read it.
After all, I didn't finish reading it, so I went to the Internet to spray it, which was a little out of line with the process.
Finally, the plot of the fifteenth episode has come to an end.
Kenshin sat down to rest with a tired face on his face after the battle.
Kenshin, with his eyes closed, looked like an ordinary teenager at the moment.
From behind him, a man hugged him.
On the next page of the comic, the picture is zoomed out, and Xuedaiba gently hugs him from behind.
The background of the picture is dim, and Xuedaiba, dressed in white, hugs Kenshin, who seems to be asleep sitting on the ground.
At this moment, Kenshin's expression was so peaceful.......
He Jin's hand shook.
My heart fluttered.
Something seemed to touch the heart.
It is clear that the snow daiba embracing Kenshin is just a symbolic gesture.
This scene represents that although she died, she gave Kenshin spiritual strength, but she still guarded Kenshin, so that Kenshin could go on even if he was alone from now on.
Is this the end?
Is this the meaning of Xuedaiba's sacrifice?
If it was said that the scene of Xuedaiba's death before, He Jin could still bear it, but as soon as this scene came out, He Jin really couldn't help it.
Tears burst into my eyes.......
(It's two more chapters together.) )
