Yes, in order to be able to make readers "moved" by the emotions of Similil, Miyahara Shizune is going to release a special issue of Simiel. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Instead of issuing a separate magazine, several issues of the super-circulation of Simariel are called special issues.

If there is a reader, there are certain stages of his life that he likes shoujo manga very much, but there is always a certain period of time at this stage, beyond which he will naturally graduate from shoujo manga and enter another stage of life. And then after a few more stages of life, when you ask the person if he remembers any manga magazines, if he answers, "I still remember a manga magazine called Seemar, how was it back then", then that's what Shizune Miyahara was pursuing.

This is also the ultimate pursuit and greatest victory of Sealiel.

Ahem, you ask the pursuit of sales? Look at the atmosphere, now is the time to talk about feelings, don't mention such clichés as sales.

Miyahara's specific plan was to start with the first issue of Simiel in May and continue until Mary changed to a monthly magazine in August, with each issue of the magazine adding a short story.

Although these works are all short stories, the length of each article is also different, and the longer the work, the sooner it will appear in the special issue, and the shorter the article, and vice versa.

For example, the longest short story that Miyahara Shizun is currently planning, that is, the one published in the first issue in May, has a total of seven words, and the short story published in the second issue of May has six words, and the first issue in June has a total of five words, and so on.

In this arrangement, the short stories could be completed together in August when Simiel was discontinued as a semi-monthly magazine and resurrected as a monthly magazine......

Well, it's a perfect plan in every sense of the word.

This special issue is ostensibly to give back to the readers who have supported Simiel over the years, but in fact, it is ...... Well, in fact, there is absolutely no bad purpose beyond that.

Except that I really want readers to be moved and earn some tears - this can't be considered a bad purpose, right?

Regardless of what the short story is, in terms of the act of giving back to the readers, Hibiscus can be said to make readers happy, after all, for the same amount of money, everyone wants to buy a few more works that are being serialized in a manga magazine, and the overall number of pages in the magazine is thicker.

It's a matter of price-performance ratio.

But the problem with this event itself is that the works that are going to be published in installments and are being completed at the same time are all "touching".

For example, Midorikawa Yuki's Firefly Forest.

A love story with regret that can't be sought, like this, in the short story prepared by Miyahara Shizun herself, there is also one that is very similar to the Firefly Forest, but it is not about the love that happens between humans and monsters, but about the story between people and ghosts.

The story is called the Twilight Maiden.

The manga is a supernatural love work based on a middle school called "Private Seikyo College", which roughly tells the story of a new student named Shintani Sadachi, who encountered a ghost named Geng Xizi in the abandoned old school building one day, in order to help the ghost sister regain her memory.

In order to achieve this goal, Shintani Sada, at first, investigates the "Seven Incredible Incidents" in the school, and maintains a club called the Weird Investigation Department, and after various efforts, he finally helps Geng Yuko to recover his memories from his life.

Sound familiar? Sound familiar? Well, this story is actually "Twilight Girl X Amnesia", but a long time ago, Miyahara Jing made a major overhaul of this story, taking its essence and turning a long-form serial into a short work.

In terms of the emotion index, after abandoning some of the slots in the story, instead of falling, it has risen.

After all, at the original time, Miyahara Jing wanted to see if there was a chance to post such a short story to Killire, but the plan couldn't keep up with the rapid change, and soon it would be his turn to call the shots in the Hibiscus Society.

There are a lot of changes in this story.,"Twilight Girl X Amnesia" This work was originally a little harem-oriented.,And there will be some welfare shots from time to time.,These are basically not allowed in girl's comics.,So for the convenience of publishing.,These things have been deleted by Miyahara Jing.,The basic emotional tone of the whole story has basically been changed to a story similar to the pure love story of the Firefly Forest.。

It's not that he changes it blindly to show his presence, but what kind of work he wants to serialize in any magazine, and there are all underlying rules.

For example,Because of the relationship between the readership,Girl comics must not serialize harem-oriented works.,This is an act of disrespect for female readers.,It's easy to cause disgust.,But you can serialize works against the harem.,Just as many male readers like harem works.,There are also a lot of female readers who like reverse harem works.,Some people like to watch the male protagonist circulate in a bunch of beautiful women.,Some people like to watch a girl being sought after among a bunch of handsome guys.,Men and women are equal.,Many times the psychology of readers is the same.。

For example, the male public relations department of Ouran High School, which is being serialized by Seemariel, has such a nature, relaxed, funny, heroine, handsome guy, reverse harem, and can capture the psychology of female readers, so as soon as it was serialized, this work caused a topic.

Let's go back to the story of the twilight girl.,In the original work, the weird investigation department was added.、The female department member who helped the male protagonist investigate Geng Xizi's identity.,There is a little ambiguous relationship with the male protagonist.,These emotional scenes between men and women other than the male and female protagonists.,All of them have been changed into pure and pure friendship between teenagers and girls by Miyahara Jing.。

At the same time, many plots in this story that deviated from the main line were also abandoned by him without hesitation, and this comic was changed into a story closely focused on retrieving ghost memories and revealing the tragic fate of Geng Xizi step by step.

So a long-form work with a serialization period of more than four years and more than 10 in a single volume has become such a short comic.

After changing to a short story, the whole story naturally has a tighter pace and a more touching story.

The final ending of this story,The original is that Geng Xizi, who is a ghost, is left in the present world.,But this doesn't match folklore.,Generally speaking,Of course, the ghost who fulfills his wish has to become a Buddha.。

So the story becomes that the heroine disappears with satisfaction, and the male protagonist is lonely all his life.

Hey, the ending of this story is just the opposite of the firefly forest.,A male protagonist disappears.,A female protagonist becomes a Buddha.,You can consider drawing a new story.,Pair Shintani Sadachi and Takekawa Hotaru together......

Ahem!

In short, the emotional color of the story of the twilight girl has become a category that you understand.

Well, Miyahara Shizune didn't have such a dark psychology at that time, he just wanted to make the story more moving, and tragedy is destined to be more moving than comedy.

But now that these works have been put together, and they have to be completed at the same time, then you can't help but say that he is not dead.

In addition to the firefly forest and the dusk girl, other short works that are ready to start serialization,The story direction is roughly the same.,Anyway, I want the story of the final reunion.,There's no such thing in it.。

This is definitely an act of death with an adventurous spirit, and it also has the meaning of challenging the limits of the reader's patience, which cannot be said that Miyahara is a ...... Well, it's a bit of a snack indeed.

However, this is very important, otherwise Miyahara Jing is in the category of no reason, which does not match his role setting.

It's impossible for any magazine, or for any business, to be the best in the industry without taking some risks.

Especially as a backward company in the industry, if you want to break the dominant position of first-mover companies, sometimes you have to be bold in your plans.

In a sense, as long as it has sufficient financial support and has a relatively correct strategy, it is a gradual and natural thing for a company to grow into the top ten or top five in the entire similar industry, but in fact it is a difficult thing, and many companies have not grown up because of this or that reason.

This process is difficult, but what is even more difficult is the process of growing from the tenth to the first, if you want to become the strongest first in the industry, then it is difficult to do without the right opportunity and enough courage.

This is the case for the current Seemaril, from last year's crisis reorganization, to a new start, and then to the current rapid development, it seems that the prospects are unlimited, but according to the opinions of professional statistics and analysts, Seemaril's sales are likely to exceed 400,000 this year, but it is rare how to maintain sales at more than 400,000.

This does not deviate from the law of industry development, no enterprise can not develop infinitely at a high speed, the sales of any magazine will have a bottleneck that cannot be broken, after all, the market size is like that, there is always a time to rise to the end, and the rise to the end is likely to mean that the sales will go down.

Therefore, Simariel must have a deep "impression" to keep in mind for the reader, and the problem now is that this impression is insufficient, so Miyahara will consider creating such an impression.

Wanting to make Simiel a shoujo manga like Flowers and Dreams, Miyahara is ready to give it a go, and if he doesn't do anything at such a time, it's not in his style.

Even if it really caused the reader's dissatisfaction, he was ready to bear the consequences and had already thought of a solution.

Of course, the details will not be started until May, and the testimony will be even further away, in August. (To be continued.) )
