Chapter 318: A Confused Cartoonist and a Confused Reader
It's been a week since the two of them talked to Makoto Takahashi!Although they were attacked by Makoto Takahashi's murderous [Middle Two Brainwashing Wave] that day, the two didn't communicate much about it at that time...... Judging from Lan Du's cognition, Makoto Takahashi's paranoid delusions are just a manifestation of a typical secondary two disease......!
Looking at the content of the new sentence written by a good friend, Lan Du frowned with some dissatisfaction! Since the two of them came back from Makoto Takahashi's house, the plot recently written by the yellow-haired glasses Jun has not appeared as usual, and there is no wonderful content that makes him stunned......
"Autumn people, have you been ...... lately?"
“…… It's nothing, it's not too much of a problem...... Ahaha......" The yellow-haired glasses Jun made an embarrassing scratch and made trouble, trying to deceive his good friends, and fooled by with a smirk!
If there is nothing, why is there a brief silence before? and this plot ......
“…… Okay!In that case, then Autumn people, then I'll just say it......" Lan Du put down the manuscript paper in his hand, and after pondering for a while, he looked at his good friends with a serious face, "Whether it's the development of the plot or the appearance time of the characters, although I have a very unexpected feeling, but when I drew the whole plot, I felt that the timeline was quite chaotic, and the plot jump was too exaggerated! The content of this sentence is a bit confusing even to me in many places, let alone readers who read comics......!
"Eh, is that really the case? sure enough...... I'm sorry, the highest!" After working with Lan Du for a long time, it was the first time that the yellow-haired glasses had received such a serious evaluation from a good friend, and he originally wanted to say something to justify, but he recalled the complicated thoughts in his heart when he completed this sentence before. {We don't write novels, we're just online text porters-" Epinovel, the yellow-haired glasses gentleman sighed helplessly, and said to his good friend apologetically, "Alas...... I know! When I go back tonight, I'll definitely stay up all night to revise it!"
"Na, Qiu Ren......" Seeing that his good friend looked deeply shocked, Lan Du also felt a little irritable in his heart. His fingers kept tapping on the table, and he asked with some uncertainty, "Since talking to Ah Cheng that day, I feel that you have always been less focused lately, could it be because Ah Cheng ...... that day?"
“…… Sorry, the highest!" This is the second time in today's time that the yellow-haired glasses have said this! Looking at the concerned eyes of his good friends, a certain weak-hearted yellow hair gently pushed his glasses. He said in a somewhat uncertain tone, "Husband, although I haven't been in a good state lately...... But we're going to defeat our new wife and become the ace cartoonist on "Shonen Jumk...... Huh? At this time...... Oh, Mr. Hattori is here, right? I, I'm going to open the door!"
The yellow-haired glasses gentleman, who was becoming less and less confident in speaking, was saved by a sudden knock on the door, and got up in a panic and ran to the door of the studio...... Seeing that his good friend was obviously no longer in a state, Lan Du sighed helplessly. With a face full of resentment, he muttered someone's name......
As is customary, Hattori editors read the manga before they read it. will tell the two about the ranking of the results of the serialized comics...... However, today's Hattori editor is a little abnormal, since he entered the door, his attention has always been focused on Lan Du's classmates!
"Mr. Hattori, yes...... Is there any problem?" Looking at the Hattori editor suspiciously, Lan Du asked a little confused.
"Mashiro-kun. I remember that the editor-in-chief used to say that Taro Kawaguchi ...... It's your uncle, right?" The Hattori editor suddenly sighed inexplicably, and handed the sample of "Young Jumk" belonging to the manga artist in the bag to Lan Du, "After reading this "Dream Eater", I realized that he is really a great manga artist!"
"Eh, uncle, he'......" mentioned this matter. Lan Du took the sample magazine with a puzzled face, and turned to the part of the serial comic "Dream Eater", although he had a faint premonition in his heart, but when he really saw the comic, he still exclaimed, "This is ......"
The beginning of this episode "Dream Eater" does not tell whether the manga of Yumeha Aki and Yashiro will be favored by the editor, but turns the content of the story to the past and begins to tell the story about the manga artist Taro Kawaguchi......
When you read more novels, you will naturally have the idea of writing something, and if you read more comics, you will also have the idea of drawing something...... I have to say that human beings are really susceptible to external influences and have a special love for certain things at a certain time, and the same is true for Uchida!
As a reader of "Shonen Jumk", since he began to contact "Shonen Jumk" when he was in junior high school, Uchida has now entered university, and his reading history of more than ten years has made Uchida often show off to his classmates around him that he is a senior reader! Uchida also thought about working hard to practice his drawing skills, and then wait until he was in college to complete a manga, submit to "Shonen Jumk", and become a manga artist!
It's a good thing to have ideals, but Uchida didn't become a manga artist! Over the years, he has continued to grow in age, and his drawing skills have improved from the level of the second grade of elementary school to the level of the fourth grade of elementary school...... In a sense, there is also progress!
I originally thought that the new comic of the cartoonist Phoenix Courtyard would be the same as the comic of the previous monster era, which is a comic that tells about the weird battles of various monsters, but I didn't expect this comic with a name that looks quite mysterious, but it will actually be a comic that tells the story of the protagonist's struggle to become a cartoonist...... So when I finished reading the first episode of the manga "Dream Eater", Uchida was quite happy! And what Uchida cared about the most was naturally in this comic, the two people who became the protagonists were also real cartoonists in reality - Yashiroki Yumeha!
Maybe Uchida didn't know much about the names 'Majo Tallest' and 'Takagi Akito' a few years ago, but after the incident about voice actor Adou Miho broke out some time ago, the names of the two members of Ajogi Yumeha were also familiar to everyone on the reader's side...... The manga with Yumeha Aki as the protagonist is also a story about the struggle of a manga artist, and Uchida really can't find a reason to refuse to read it!
The content of the previous episode of "Dream Eater" tells the story of the two protagonists who completed their first comic, walked into the editorial office with excitement and anxiety, and handed over their debut work "Two Earths" to the editor...... According to Makoto Takahashi's bad habits. The manga rightfully ends at a critical moment!
"The manga was handed over to the editor and received reviews, but the result was to be delayed until the next episode...... The card plot is stuck at the most critical time, should it be said that it is worthy of the manga of the fierce demon king of the Phoenix Courtyard?" After starting the new issue of "Young Jumk", Uchida complained dissatisfied, while quickly flipping through the manga in his hand. "After a week of waiting, I can finally watch the rest of the content......"
But it's a bit of a pity that the "Dream Eater" of this episode, at the beginning, did not tell about the results of the two protagonists' contributions, but let the timeline jump to the time when the protagonist Maeshiro's highest classmate was still in the Shota period! The characters who appeared in the comics, in addition to the [Shota Body] Mashiro's highest classmate who was lying on the bed and watching the comics, there was also a middle-aged uncle with a towel around his neck and glasses who drew seriously! This uncle's name is Shinhiro Mashiro. The pen name is Taro Kawaguchi, that is, the protagonist Mashiro's highest uncle!
"What are you doing? What I want to see is the result of Yacheng Mu Mengye's first submission, not this kind of sudden addition of [Memory Kill] content!Alas, forget it, let's watch it seriously......"
Although Uchida is a little dissatisfied with the content of the opening chapter, it is just a simple complaint. I didn't skip this part of the seemingly boring content, just chattered about it. While flipping through the manga!
If you change to another cartoonist, when you encounter this kind of [Memory Kill] part that has nothing to do with the main plot line, Uchida will definitely choose to skip it! Because Uchida is confident that he can make up for the skipped part, but when I think of the author of this "Dream Eater", he is the murderer of Phoenix Courtyard...... Uchida still chose to take it seriously!
When I was watching "When the Cicadas Cried". Uchida directly skipped the part about Takano Sansi Memories of Killing, so he was very sad to find that the content after that seemed to be understood, and it wasn't until he re-finished the skipped plot that he regained the smoothness of watching! Uchida, who was once pitted by "When the Cicadas Cried", said that only this manga that likes to kill readers and cartoonists, I will never jump the plot!
The manga of this episode spends nearly half of the space to tell the story of Taro Kawaguchi, although at the beginning, Uchida was quite unhappy about it, but looking at it, he was gradually attracted by this plot!
"The future is just another repetition of history...... What happened to Majo Supreme and Nobuhiro Maeshiro, there is such a striking similarity, should it be said that they are worthy of being uncles and nephews?" Looking at the comics, when Nobuhiro Majo became a cartoonist because he liked a girl in the same class, and he became a cartoonist and began to work hard, Uchida couldn't help but laugh and let out such an emotion!
However, in the manga, Nobuhiro Maeshiro did not get together with the woman he had a crush on in the end! Although Nobuhiro Maeshiro's manga finally got the opportunity to be animated and sold well after the animation, the woman who had a crush in his heart became someone else's bride! And Nobuhiro Maeshiro did not stop the road of manga artist, but kept working hard, and finally died of overwork when the protagonist was in the sixth grade......
Although I already knew that the protagonist Mashiro's highest uncle had passed away, but after watching this plot, Uchida felt uncomfortable!
The manga didn't end there, but jumped to the side of the protagonist, and the first comic "Two Earths" created by the two did not succeed in getting serialized...... This is the result that Uchida had already guessed after reading the content of the previous episode! Although the development of the manga is as he expected, Uchida is not up at all now!
"My uncle once said that a cartoonist is like a gambler......"
"Hard work, self-confidence, and luck...... This is the true essence of the Kawaguchi Taro school!"
Although the content of the [Memory Kill] part has ended, Uchida has found that the one who has the greatest influence on the two protagonists in the manga to embark on the road of manga artists is definitely the manga artist Taro Kawaguchi......! When Uchida lamented the great influence of Nobuhiro Maneshiro, he also had a lot of doubts!
Because according to the creation of the manga "Dream Eater", in reality, there should be a cartoonist named Taro Kawaguchi! But Uchida is sure that he has never heard of this person...... The doubts that linger in my heart make Uchida feel like a fish in his throat!
"Forget it...... You can read the manga at any time, but if this problem is not solved, I really feel a little troubled!" Uchida put aside half of the "Shonen Jumk" and began to look up on the Internet, there are relevant materials about Taro Kawaguchi...... (To be continued......)
ps: Regarding the content of "Dream Eater", a certain cat modified some of the order and delayed the uncle's story a little, and I really think that the uncle has a great influence on Yacheng Mu Mengye!
Remember to read it: convenient for next time, or.
