January 10th, the last day of Shizune Miyahara's winter vacation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

According to the rhythm of the average high school student, he should spend the last day of the vacation in a hurry, and then tomorrow, while cursing, reluctantly, and having to go to school.

However, he got up very early today, and after a hurried breakfast, he came to a bookstore not far from his house.

He was going to spend the next day here.

Because today is the day of the release of Hibiscus's shonen manga midearth, this is very important for Miyahara Shizune, who wants to see the release up close.

That's right, midearth is the name of the very short-lived shonen manga in the history of the Hibiscus Society.

Today he is going back to publication.

midearth…… This is very much in line with the hibiscus society's naming of its magazine, the name of the girl's manga Simmariel (Silmarilon) comes from Tolkien's elven diamond, but Midearth Needless to say, this is clearly "Middle-earth".

Tolkien lay down the gun again.

When Yuichi Miyahara named this shonen manga, he probably hoped that a wonderful story like the one in Middle-earth would happen in this manga magazine...... However, the wish is beautiful, and the reality is on the street.

In the 80s, Hibiscus Society ambitiously ventured into shonen comics, and then reality quickly gave them a slap in the face.

As soon as it was closed, the Hibiscus Society was beheaded under the horse.

Then this enemy named Reality said very chicly, "The enemy is ashamed, I will take off her clothes", and then left.

The Hibiscus Society has monopolized licking of wounds until now.

It can be said that the resumption of the shonen manga me is the most important project since Miyahara Shizune took charge of the Hibiscus Society, which cannot be ignored by him.

Although he still has a certain degree of confidence in whether he can succeed, he will inevitably be a little uneasy when it comes to the real thing...... Yes, he was restless again.

History is always strikingly similar, for Miyahara Jing's decision to print 100,000, most of the editors in the ME editorial department are against it, they are still relatively conservative, thinking that the first printing of 50,000 copies is enough - but Miyahara Jing doesn't think so, he is doing propaganda, and he is losing money to make money, and he has spent so much effort himself, he should always have some return, right?

So he arbitrarily demanded the first 100,000.

So this kind of arbitrariness always makes him a little pressured, in case he can't sell 100,000, although his subordinates will not accuse him of making mistakes as a boss, but secret doubts are always inevitable.

Don't listen to the old man, suffer in front of me, I have eaten more salt than you have eaten, but you just don't listen to me, and so on, and so on, will definitely spread.

Therefore, on this day, he did not choose to wait for news at the Hibiscus Society, but entered a bookstore.

The bookstore he came to was called Tamura Books, and as the name suggests, it was not a large-scale chain bookstore, but a small bookstore belonging to an individual.

Of course, such a small bookstore is also in the sales network of the East Hawkers, and it has been selling Simariel before, so it is very likely that the newly released me will also be sold.

The reason why I came to such a small bookstore instead of a large bookstore was because Miyahara felt that such a bookstore might be more representative. He thinks that observing such small bookstores is more representative than the large ones - of course, this is only his subjective assumption, without any scientific or sociological basis.

Most of the schools are still in the winter break today, so it's a good day for the release of new magazines, and the main people who buy manga are free to move around today.

Outside the Tamura Book House, Shizune Miyahara found a poster with the words "New Manga Midearth Arrives", and he knew he was in the right place.

"Store manager, do you have a new manga called Shonen Midearth for sale?" Miyahara Jing walked into the bookstore, and after scanning her eyes casually around the store, she immediately asked.

This bookstore is less than 20 tsubo, so the shelves are very dense, and it is estimated that it takes a lot of time to find them one by one.

"Yes, in the middle of the third bookshelf on the left."

Miyahara Jing squeezed into the gap between the bookshelves, and then asked, "On what floor?" ”

This row of bookshelves is densely packed with comics, which makes Miyahara Jing a little dazzled for a while.

"Not on the shelves, on the row of booths below!"

The store manager is a young man in his twenties, a little handsome, and his voice is full of energy.

Miyahara Jing followed the place where she was dealing with the explanation, and sure enough, she found me.

"Did you find it?"

"Found it!"

The manga classification in Tamura Shoya is quite chic, and ME is not separated from the shonen manga of the same theme, but with the shoujo manga Simiriel, who also belongs to the Hibiscus Society.

This is a taxonomy that values blood and origin.

At a glance, there are a lot of comic characters drawn on the cover of this issue of me, and they are the main characters of the various comics it publishes so far.

After Shizune Miyahara took the helm of Hibiscus Society, they rarely made such covers, because the former required the cover to be as simple and beautiful as possible, and in the past, the cover only featured one or two characters belonging to the same manga.

Of course, me is a new comic, so here is a family group photo.

The manga characters in the center of the cover and the largest proportion are Shirou Emiya, Rin Tosaka, and Saber...... This is not because Miyahara Jing is partial to her comics, but because Fate is currently the most well-known in the me and has the largest base of fans, so it should be highlighted.

In addition, the text on the cover is only "Shonen Midearth" and the first issue in January 1995.

Because this is a resurrected comic.,So this can't actually be regarded as the inaugural issue.,Of course, it's not easy to write the three words "inaugural issue".,It's not easy to write the words "resurrection after xx years" or "The return of the king" like the second of the two.。

me is fighting the street to death, and it has nothing to do with the king, and if you want to write it, you have to write "return from the street".

Don't say it, the four words "return from the street" seem to bring a kind of indomitable momentum to people's senses.

Miyahara stooped down to pick up a me, then walked to the front desk to pay.

Of course, he can't just leave after paying, so he really looks like he's just here to buy comics, what's the point of observation?

Besides, he doesn't know how many times he's turned over the sample issue of this comic, and now he has three or five copies at home.

Although the bookstore is small and has a dense number of shelves, the manager has left room for readers to read - next to a glass façade, there is plenty of light, so the manager has placed a long desk and a few high stools here so that readers who want to read here can have a suitable space.

This is a very humanized design, so in order to make this humanized design play its due role, Miyahara Jing sat here after paying, and then pretended to turn two pages of comics from time to time.

In fact, his mind is not on the comics at all.,From his position, you can see the store manager at the front desk a little sideways.,As long as someone buys me and goes to the checkout there.,He can see it.。
