Kyoto.

Fire Day, TBS Evening Theatre.

The much-anticipated "Metal Hero シャリバン" has already aired three full episodes.

As an orthodox sequel to Gaban, Chariban not only has many main characters in the previous work, but also completely inherits Gaban's world view and setting. The broadcast has achieved remarkable results and is loved by countless fans.

The story of this work,Inherit the previous work。

After Gaban eliminated the "Cosmic Crime Organization Demon Sky", he was promoted to the captain of the Galaxy Patrol and reached the pinnacle of his life.

And Shaliban, as a subordinate of Gaban, was sent to the Earth region to carry out a mission, and it happened that a new "cosmic criminal organization" emerged, and the story began......

Then again!

Meng Lang has always wanted to complain, why are these cosmic criminal organizations named "family-style"? The previous work is called [Demon Sky], and this work is called [Demon Dao], anyway, it can't get along with "Demon"?

Well, that's a minor issue.

The so-called "Demon Dao" organization is actually an underworld force that has re-emerged on the earth after the Demon Sky was destroyed by Kaban. They are in an extradimensional dimension, and they use it as a base in an attempt to conquer the galaxy.

Like the setting of Kaban, the Chariban also has a common enmity with the villain organization!

This has to be said 2,000 years ago......

A long, long time ago, the Demon Organization destroyed Iga's home planet, Iga, in order to obtain the "super energy crystal" Iga Crystal.

The main character, Iga Den, is stationed on Earth as a cosmic detective. In the process of fighting with the Demon Dao Organization, he gradually solved the mystery of his life experience, thus eliminating the Demon Dao.

That's the story!

From the audience's point of view, Chariban and Kaban are almost identical except for minor differences such as names, armor, and special moves.

Literally twin brothers......

This incident sounds infuriating, after all, the similarity is too high, and the audience always feels that they are not watching the Chariban, but the replay of the Kaban.

But the actual impression is very good!

The example of changing the soup without changing the medicine is not uncommon in the entire industry. There is no shortage of similar cases in the online literature and comics circles next door.

The main reason for this is to "reduce risk" and increase the odds of success!

For example, if the online god opens a new book, if the previous work is very successful, the probability of him changing ideas is very low. In order to consolidate popularity and achievements, the new book is the "twin brother" of the previous work nine times out of ten.

The same is true of the Shaliban......

The previous work, Gaban, was already very successful and loved by countless audiences around the world. In that case, isn't it good to directly apply the template of the previous work and consolidate the popularity of the series?

Innovation is good!

Can you accept the consequences of failure?

"Eat the old Ben!"

"Don't want to forge ahead!"

In order to make money, if you have to lose face or something, you have to lose it. The audience scolded and scolded, should he still watch it. The small amount of money is earned, and the word of mouth is almost indifferent.

Of course, it's okay for this kind of thing to happen once in a while, but every time it's twins who "change the soup but not the medicine", then it belongs to death.

Therefore, Shaida after the Chariban can no longer apply the template of the previous work, and must innovate in the story.

It's not okay to copy the original......

In the "Cosmic Criminal" trilogy, Shaida is the most unpopular one. Although it is quite famous in Neon, it does not perform well overseas.

It's interesting to talk about.

Shaida's lineup is definitely the most luxurious presence in the trilogy. Producer Toei, director Shinichiro Sawai, screenwriter Shozo Uehara, starring Hiroshi Tsuburaya......

What kind of "dream team" is this?

Sawai and Uehara Shozo don't talk about it first, starring Hiroshi Tsuburaya, who created "Godzilla" and "Ultraman" and is known as the "God of Tokusatsu" by the industry!

As a result, that's all there is to it?

In order to repay the kindness, Uehara recommended Hiroshi Tsuburaya to play the starring role. This is a good thing of "double kitchen ecstasy", but Tsuburaya and Toei are against each other, this wave is a supernatural invincible number of days!

It's a pity.

Speaking of Hiroshi Tsuburaya, he also made a cameo appearance as his biological father Tsuburaya in Ultraman Tiga, Dinari made a cameo appearance as a TPC staff officer, and a doctor in Saiwen 94OV...... If it weren't for his early death, the cameo role would be no less than Shigeki Kagemaru.

It's also a generation of dragon set emperors!

Compared to its predecessor, Kaban, the results of the Chariban are slightly inferior. But this does not affect the satisfaction of TBS, nor does it affect Meng Lang's introduction to China.

It's basically not good to go to the stars!

Not to mention the tight schedule at the end of the year, the possibility of success in cutting the queue. As a weekly drama, Chariban is not suitable for stardom.

The network broadcast is okay, and Big Bird Video is an existing platform. One episode is updated every week, and members are the first to watch it, isn't it beautiful to have a wave of membership fees?

In addition to the "Metal Hero Chariban" landing on Big Bird Video for the "One Episode a Week" update. "Super Beast Sentai Life Man" from PD's North American branch also landed on Big Bird Video on the same day.

It was an accident!

Jiangchuan Satellite TV has three weekly theaters of "Friday, Saturday and Sunday". You can play all three Super Sentai Ultraman Kamen Rider works at the same time.

Under normal circumstances, after the end of "Super Ani Biochemical Man", "Super Beast Squad Life Man" seamlessly took over Jiangchuan Satellite TV's spare Saturday theater.

How could it be the turn of the Big Bird video?

"Something happened here......"

Meng Lang did not explain in detail, he only told Kent: "The next work will definitely be broadcast on TV." Moreover, it is also our own TV station. ”

"Oh, I see......"

Kent didn't dwell on it either, accepting the fact. It's best to be on TV, and it's okay if you can't, anyway, the team's home stadium is in North America.

In addition to informing Kent, Meng Lang also contacted Shirakura and President Ono.

After the end of the empty self and the super-electronic cyborgs, new knights, new warbands, and even new Ultramans, new animation works, all have to move a nest.

Priority for Big Bird Cartoons!

If Big Bird Cartoon doesn't have a schedule, then go to Big Bird Video for network broadcasting.

PD Group has maintained a close cooperative relationship with Jiangchuan Satellite TV for "seven years", and with the release of a document, there will be no more to do in the future.

It is even possible that we will meet each other in battle!

After all, once the Big Bird Cartoon is restructured, PD and Jiangchuan Satellite TV will have a genuine "enemy Taiwan" relationship.

In this regard, Jiangchuan Satellite TV is very reluctant.

Over the years, they have developed smoothly with the thighs of black pigs. In terms of audience base alone, it is no worse than Mango Channel.

If they lose their PD, how can they retain their existing advertisers and young audiences?

"Honey, give me another chance!"

Jiangchuan Satellite TV desperately maintained this "seven-year relationship" and wanted to persuade Meng Lang to change his mind. However, this black pig is determined to break up, no matter what they say, it is always "I don't listen, I don't listen".

What's going on?

Before they could figure it out, another bad news came out.

The current director has already submitted an application for "sick retirement" to the relevant departments at a higher level. Claims to be in poor physical condition and incapable of performing their current job.

Subordinates: "......"

Believe you, a ghost!

Oops old man, he must have hooked up with Meng Heizhu a long time ago and took the opportunity to run away!
