Instead of "Death", it seems like a fantasy.

But that's the main problem for them as editors now.

And as the president of Shueisha, Horiuchi Maruki asked, obviously knowing that among the comics that are now serialized, there is no manga that can compete with "Death" at all, and even the comics that Shogakukan and Kodansha just mentioned have the characteristics of fire.

In this era, Japanese meat mans are rampant, and they are full of the irritability of the times. The aesthetics of comic friends have become numb, coupled with the routines of comics and light novels, basically a meat man comes out with a change of soup and no medicine, and there are too few works like "Death".

Of course, "Inuyasha" and "Fairy Tail", which have recently become popular, are eye-catching.

So the current Horiuchi Marue is a little impatient.

However, as soon as this issue came out, all the editors were silent.

Seeing this, Megumi Horiuchi knows that this means that there is no new work that can compare to "Death".

This is also normal, as a new work, then it is impossible to update too much.

At the beginning, although the quality of "Bleach was also very high", no one thought that "Bleach would be so popular" at that time.

The kind of plot that can see the fire of a comic book at the beginning obviously can't happen in the real world, and if you have that kind of vision, you can't just be an editor.

And a comic, the plot has not even begun to unfold at the beginning, how can it be seen that it can be a big hit? This is too unrealistic.

"Is there a new person worth grooming?"

This time, the editors were not indifferent, and one by one, they looked at Iida Ayano, a mature woman.

Seeing this, Iida Ayano was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but be stunned, and then smiled bitterly, a series of expressions made people laugh.

Even the president Horiuchi Maruhui saw this scene, and his expression softened.

At this time, Iida Ayano couldn't help but stubbornly say: "Actually, I don't know if that one is really worth cultivating!"

"How?" asked Megumi Horiuchi with interest. The editor-in-chief on the side, Ryo Yamazaki, is also full of interest.

Unless the cartoonist under the editor's name is a well-known cartoonist, the editor-in-chief will not ask about it, otherwise he will have to die.

"I wonder if the president knows Shiina Mahaku?"

This rhetorical question made the editors sweat for Iida Ayano, and as I said before, the upper and lower hierarchies in Japan are very strict, like now the president asks you questions, you just need to be honest and detailed, and also engage in rhetorical questions, as a subordinate and editor, this is not advisable.

However, Megumi Horiuchi didn't care, and instead fell into deep thought.

Shiina is white, and as soon as this name comes into my ears, a familiar feeling comes to my face.

The next moment, Horiuchi Marue frowned, her heart trembled, suppressed the shock in her heart, and looked at Iida Ayano calmly and asked, "Shiina Mashiro... That world-class genius painter?"

"That's right, it's the other party. Ayano Iida nodded and said, "This world-talented painter submitted our rookie award before!"

The Rookie Award, also known as the 'JUMP Next-Gen Manga Awards', is a joint initiative between Shueisha's 'JumpLive' of Weekly Shonen Jump and Weekly YoungJump's 'Neighborhood YoungJump'.

(JumpLive and Neighbor YuongJump are equivalent to two web platforms.) )

It is called the Newcomer Award by the Japanese ACG circle.

For his own awards, Horiuchi Maruhui is naturally clear, and when he hears this, he can't help but look forward to it.

However, the next moment, Iida Ayano shook his head and said, "But this world-class genius painter was eliminated by us." ”

Horiuchi Maru Megumi frowned slightly, since he was eliminated, then Iida Ayano shouldn't talk so much nonsense with him, after all, the crime of teasing the president can make him directly dismiss the other party.

"President, you wait. At this time, Iida Ayano got up, and then left the conference room with the consent of the president and the editor-in-chief.

After a minute or two, Ayano Iida brought a laptop, then opened the email and handed it to Megumi Horiuchi.

Submissions for the Newcomer Award are basically made on the Internet, so submissions are also webmail submissions.

And when Horiuchi Maruhui looked at the comics on the computer, he couldn't help but show a look of amazement.

He didn't see a beautiful woman, but a cartoon. But it's a comic.,This style of painting is also a little too gorgeous.。

That's right, the elegance is peerless, and in an instant, this idiom of Huaxia came to his mind.

Only exquisite, perfect, and peerless elegance can describe the style of painting he sees.

Whether it's the background, the characters, the costumes, and some of the small details, it's all perfect. But the next moment he frowned.

This style of painting is indeed surprising and shocking, and gorgeous words cannot describe the style of painting he sees.

But if it's too perfect, it will give people a sense of unreality.

The most important thing is that this is a comic, although the first thing people see at first glance is the author's style of painting, but when something really reaches perfection, it is a fatal flaw.

Everything seems perfect, so who is in charge and who is secondary? What is the use of having a perfect painting style?

On top of that, manga is also a work that the author uses to tell a story.

Although the style of painting is important, the storyline, world background, and setting also need to keep up with the style of painting, and the so-called style of painting must also fit the comics.

So next Horiuchi Maruki started watching the storyline.

However, when he finished reading it, he couldn't help but look stunned, and even revealed a deep speechlessness in his eyes.

The story of this manga is very simple.

To put it simply, it's a childhood sweetheart falling in love.,And then a male rival appears.,Very simple girl comics.。 As a result, looking at it, Megumi Horiuchi found that the supporting male rival was gone?

Inexplicably, the author didn't even give an explanation, and the supporting actor disappeared? Even a pet dog that he had confessed before disappeared.

Although it's just a pet, the manga pays attention to the details.

Unlike novels, which allow readers to imagine for themselves, comics are a kind of novel or storyline expressed on paper, so some small details are extremely important.

So even if it's a pet, you have to give an account. Even pets can drive events.

And this situation made Horiuchi Maruki frown.

He knew why Iida Ayano had questions just now, and he didn't know if Shiina Mashiro was worth cultivating, just because it was too difficult to choose.

First of all, it's a matter of painting style.,As long as Shiina really understands some shortcomings.,Then this style of painting is peerless.,It's definitely going to shock the comic world.。

That's right.,Let Shiina Mashiro's painting style show shortcomings.,That is, the painting is a little worse.。

As a manga artist, everyone wants their style of painting to be perfect, but when he really sees perfection, Horiuchi Maruki knows that being too perfect is the biggest flaw after all.

The most important thing is that Shiina Mahaku's title as a world-class genius painter, and even opened his own art exhibitions and took photos with the British Prime Minister, his international status is very high.

Such a stirring into the Japanese manga industry will definitely cause a sensation, and when the time comes, they Shueisha will definitely make Shiina Mashiro completely famous.

Of course, comics still have to rely on strength to win after all, and the fame of the moment may fall deeper at that time.

If it was before, even if Shiina Mashiro was a world-class genius painter, Megumi Horiuchi would not care.

But now in this situation, the animated version of "Bleach is facing being cut in half", and he needs an injection of fresh blood.

And this blood needs to be able to completely save or stabilize "Weekly Shonen Jump".

"This Shibie name is really white, and you can focus on cultivating it. If the other party can get rid of the disadvantage of not being able to tell a story. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Horiuchi Maruki said.
