Chapter 657: Anime Premiere
"So, this is a misplaced card?"
Meng Lang, who asked the result, couldn't cry or laugh.
This card does exist!
When drawing [Friends of Justice - Seahorses], the artist had a whim, and with the idea of "spoofing the boss", he not only drew an additional [Friend of Justice - Meng Lang], but also fabricated the so-called effect for this card.
It's understandable that you're too tired from work, so it's understandable to do something weird to relieve stress!
Painters are not stupid.
Like this kind of "spoof boss" card, he can only play it in private, and he definitely doesn't dare to make it public. After all, if you want to support your family, isn't Mr. Meng's salary fragrant?
But an accident happened.
The painter had a bad stomach and couldn't get out of the toilet when he squatted. It just so happened that the printing house sent someone to receive the manuscript, so he told the boss through WeChat: "The sketch file is on the C drive, please!"
Then, the sketch was taken away.
Among the drawings that were taken away, there were not only [Righteous Seahorses], but also [Righteous Meng Lang].
The printing house got the original manuscript and found that the card did not have information such as card name and effect. I was about to call back for review, and suddenly I saw the artist's notes in the sketch.
And then it was printed......
Thankfully, this card has a lower shipment rate. The printing house did not print much, and the first batch was only a thousand copies.
After loading it in the comic-exclusive card pack, the artist also reacted. The problem was quickly reported, and then 990 were recovered.
There are ten left, which have already been sold with the comic book. No one can say who is in the hands.
"Okay, I got it!"
After sorting out what happened, Meng Lang rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Since the wrong card has flowed out, it is useless to recover it." ”
"Eh, Mr. Meng, aren't you angry?"
"What's the use of me being angry?"
Meng Lang said speechlessly: "The matter has come to this point, I can only deduct the artist's year-end bonus, change the effect of this card, and make it an ordinary card." ”
"That's just as well!"
Shi Sen nodded.
The artist is only responsible for "drawing the card face", and does not know how to design the "monster effect". The effect he made up is too buggy at some point. After making a regular card, the effect has to be changed.
After the modification, it is still "selling blood for attack", but there is a limit of 3000 points for attack power increase. In other words, the maximum attack power of this card is only 3000 points, and it cannot be added any further.
And the ten wrong cards......
Their effect is still the same as before, and they are not limited by the "3000 cap".
It was an accident!
But this accident gave birth to the Yu-Gi-Oh card "collection trading" market in advance.
The "wrong card" in Kotaro's hand has been shouted out at a high price of "100,000 yen". Unsurprisingly, the value of this card will gradually increase over time.
What kind of height will be reached in the end, Meng Lang can't say......
In the original time and space, the value of Yu-Gi-Oh's physical cards has repeatedly reached new highs. Some of the "ultra-rare" cards even set a record of "one card for one suite".
And these ten wrong cards are not only scarce, but also involve "spicy men". With the explosion of Yu-Gi-Oh, the value of the future is immeasurable.
Kotaro is considered to have made a fortune!
......
Manga sales are booming.
In just one week, the cumulative global sales of the first three volumes of the official manga of "Yu-Gi-Oh" successfully exceeded 10 million copies.
Quite an impressive result!
Being able to sell so many comics depends on the boldness of the "non-chief gambling dogs" who buy dozens of copies, which has little to do with the quality of the comics.
Of course, it's a fact that the manga sells well.
No matter how many "real, readers" there are behind this sales. At least the IP popularity of Yu-Gi-Oh has been initially established.
Next, it's the anime's turn!
September 15, 8 p.m. sharp. A total of 51 episodes of the anime of the same name "Yu-Gi-Oh: Duel Kingdom" landed on Big Bird Video and Big Bird Cartoon, starting the first round of broadcasting.
Meng Lang watched the premiere at home.
The plot is basically the same......
When playing cards with his friends, he inadvertently revealed the secret of his grandfather's possession of a rare card, and was heard by his classmate, Haima, the eldest young master of the Haima Group......
When Seahorse failed to lure him, he resorted to despicable means to coerce You Liuye to duel with him. Won the "only four in the world" blue-eyed white dragon and tore it off with his own hands.
This move angered the game.
Lying on the ground and dying, You Liuye, who seemed to be about to burp, took out the card deck and handed it to the game: "Go!
"I can't do it......"
Even if he watched it again, Meng Lang still felt ashamed. Why is grandpa dying, and you can still play cards with people as if nothing happened?
Do you also play GWENT?
Well, in order to avenge the dear grandfather, it makes sense to force the war. But...... But you "change everywhere"......
It's pompous!
Meng Lang has believed since he was a child that the biggest sense of disobedience in "Yu-Gi-Oh" is not the "mouth beard" and "god pumping", but the pharaoh's "change everywhere".
To this day, he still accepts that he can't.
However, what Meng Lang can't accept doesn't mean that others can't accept it either. In his experience, most children are receptive to the "change anywhere".
Only a few people accept that they can't.
So, this point has not been modified.
"Changing the size of the place" has little impact, and coupled with the audience's love, it has been retained in the PD version. However, the "rules of the duel" have been modified to become more standardized and reasonable.
The main change is the introduction of "Sacrifice" and "4000" health.
Needless to say, the benefits of the sacrifice were changed, and the change from 2000 HP to 4000 HP was to extend the dueling time.
2000 is too little!
The rules of the original version are simply unreadable.
If the Seahorse draws the Blue-Eyed White Dragon for the first time, and the monster drawn in the game has less than 1000 attack power, then he dies on the first turn.
The "game" experience is extremely poor!
Increasing sacrifices and health is ultimately to increase the "look" and make the duel more exciting.
Other than that, the changes are not too big.
Whether it's the protagonist game, or someone else, the monsters used are basically "mortal bone" monsters, that is, monster cards with no effect.
The main factor in determining the outcome is the combination of "Attack/Defense" and "Magic Cards/Trap Cards".
That's easy to understand!
After all, it's the first season of work, and everyone mainly looks at the freshness. Looking back at the second and third seasons of the works, it's not too late to slowly upgrade the routines and gameplay to keep them fresh.
Speaking of which......
In the first two episodes, Seahorse bullies Grandpa, and Becas also comes to bully Grandpa. You young people have conflicts, why is it always the grandfather who gets hurt?
It's heart-wrenching!
The first two episodes of the animation are mainly to promote the plot, maintain the rhythm of "one episode and one duel", and introduce the world view and character background by the way.
As an animated film, this quality is already excellent. After all, it is a "board game advertising drama", and it can't be too demanding.
