162 Madoka Magica
"Sailor Moon" is finished and will be broadcast, and it will definitely be placed on TV Asahi at 7 p.m. on Toyo Day (Saturday), the prime time of the anime.
And with SHAFT's financial resources and connections, there will definitely be no way to get the same magnitude of prime-time broadcasting rights.
"I also understand the truth of differentiated competition. Wakao Hiroshi said, "So my plan is to make a magical girl animation that is oriented to the future, although I can't get the broadcast rights of the prime time of the Tsuyao Day, and if I can get the broadcast rights of the Tsuyao Day morning file, it will also be a victory." ”
The morning animation at eight o'clock in the morning on Saturday has always been the world of children, and it is most suitable for children to watch while eating.
In fact, the ratings of this period are no less than the prime time in the evening.
Otherwise, NHK's morning dramas that are suitable for families to watch at the dinner table would not have overwhelming ratings.
SHAFT wants to be a magical girl, and Qin Han takes out "Beautiful Girl of Light", which is a feasible option. However, as soon as this idea appeared, Qin Han quickly vetoed it.
Because the "Beautiful Girl of Light" series can be said to be an inexhaustible gold mine, Qin Han must write all the copyrights in his hands. Just as a screenwriter for SHAFT, wouldn't it be a fool to give money to others for nothing?
You have to help, and you can't be stupid enough to sacrifice your own interests.
Regarding Hiroshi Wakuo's thoughts, Qin Han shook his head with a smile: "Ruo San, with the strength of SHAFT, I can't afford to buy the broadcast rights of the prime file, but can I really afford the broadcast rights of the morning file?"
Hiroshi Wakao smiled awkwardly: "To tell you the truth, if you buy the broadcast rights of the morning stalls, it is indeed very reluctant, and it will inevitably greatly reduce the production budget." The quality of the animation is difficult to guarantee. ”
Qin Han spread his hands and said, "In that case, why don't you aim for the late-night stall?"
"Late-night anime?magical girl theme?" Hiroshi Wakao exclaimed.
Others were surprised.
Only Umezu Taichen, whose taste is different from ordinary people, showed an excited face.
Nowadays, the audience of animated animation with the theme of magical girls is mainly concentrated in women under the age of fifteen. The tone of the animation is generally healthy and uplifting, full of positive energy. After the protagonist transforms into a magical girl, he uses elements such as love, justice, and friendship to defeat enemies one by one, which is about the fixed mode of this type of animation.
In another world, because of the popularity and development of otaku culture, magical girl animation, the diversity of themes, the depth and breadth of content, and the diversity of audiences are not comparable to this world.
"Teacher Qin Han, are you a little too aggressive?" Ichilai Saburo frowned.
Maruyama Masao also said, "The tastes of late-night viewers are completely different from those of traditional magical girl anime. This means that we can't follow the established model and we have to innovate. Doing so is very risky. ”
Only Umezu Taichen was very interested in Qin Han's proposal: "Isn't it quite interesting. I'm tired of watching those kids' tricks. Late night magic girl,More plasma severed limbs,An important character dies in every episode.,Hmm,It's best to have some welfare giveaways during the transformation process.,It's definitely going to be popular!"
"It's not that radical yet. Qin Han looked at Umezu Taichen and shook his head, "But I do plan to make a realistic magical girl that belongs to adults." ”
The few people next to him didn't speak again, just quietly waited for Qin Han to speak.
Qin Han pondered for a moment and said, "The story I conceived is a bit new, and it will take a lot of time to tell it all. You might as well start with a girl who can travel through time and space, Xiao Meiyan......"
What he is going to make is the smash hit "Madoka Magical Girl" in his previous life.
Breaking the fixed pattern of the previous magical girl-themed animation, it has a subversive animation ......
The most awarded TV anime in history......
BD's record-selling hot-selling anime ......
There are so many honors and achievements that this animation has received. Although because of the subject matter, this anime cannot be compared with "Sailor Moon" and "Pretty Girl of Light" in terms of national character. But in the eyes of senior otaku, "Madoka Magical Girl" is an unsurpassed totem in magical girl animation.
And, in another world, this anime was also produced by the SHAFT company.
Now that Qin Han has taken it out, it can be regarded as a reluctance to correct the world line.
Because "Madoka Magical Girl" was broadcast more recently, the length was shorter, only twelve episodes, and Qin Han had watched it three times, and his memory was still fresh. So even without the help of the memory regression USB flash drive, he can recall most of the content, and it is not difficult to remake it in this world.
Listening to Qin Han explain the plot outline and core ideas of "Madoka Magica", Maruyama Masao, Ichirai Saburo, Umezu Taichen, and Wakao Hiroshi were all stunned and speechless for a long time.
For a long time, Umezu Taichen let out a sigh of relief, clutched his chest and said, "Just listening to the plot overview, my heart is beating wildly! Wakao-san, do you still lack supervision? I want to participate in the production of this animation!"
"You kid should stop a little, don't forget that you still have a madhouse job in hand!" Maruyama Masao said angrily.
"Well, just kidding, old man. ”
Maruyama Masao snorted, sighed, and sighed: "Teacher Qin Han, your idea is really not ordinary. I never thought that the magical girl animation could be set like this. The QB you're talking about is a common mascot-like character in magical girl anime. Generally speaking, though, this character is set as the protagonist's guide, friend, battle partner, and pet. But in your vision, it has a very clear and realistic purpose: to recycle emotional energy. ”
"It's not just the setting of the mascot, but the setting of the magical girl itself is also very subversive. Especially what Teacher Qin Han said: The so-called girl is a growing woman. And the reason why magical girls are called magical girls is because one day, they will grow up to be witches. Hiroshi Wakao said.
"The messenger of justice who fights evil will eventually become the enemy he once fought...... In this way, a sense of fate and tragedy is immediately created!"
In addition to being different from the subversive setting of today's routine magical girl animation, "Madoka Magical Girl" is also quite exquisite and brilliant in terms of story design.
The causal chain of one link after another, which also involves parallel worlds and time and space travel factors. Coupled with the emotions and thoughts contained in it, even if it was just listening to the synopsis of the story, it made Hiroshi Wakao and others excited.
"Teacher Qin Han, originally I still had questions about the late-night magical girl animation. But after listening to your thoughts, I have confidence again! I don't expect to surpass Sailor Moon, but I'm sure I can make a great anime!"
