The animation production company held a regular meeting to discuss the original plot of "Madoka Magical Girl", and after an afternoon passed, Chixia Yuuki, who finally knew what kind of animation Yuu Kamiya wanted to make, looked at him with subtle eyes: "Yuu, if you can come up with such a plot, you shouldn't be a pretty ghost animal." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The conference room is not big, and all the people sit around the large conference table in the oval, and Yu Kamiya on the main seat twitches the corners of his mouth: "What stupid words, the theme of "Madoka Magical Girl" is [Love], I didn't emphasize it several times just now." ”

"Hurting someone in the name of love is indeed very much in line with the style of some shaking..."

"Black cat, do you have any opinions?" Kamiya Yu simply ignored Yuki Chixia and asked for the opinion of the five more Ruri next to her, she is the only ordinary employee in the [Edge-of-Kong] animation production company who can participate in this kind of high-level meeting, and the invited five more Ruri obviously can't let go, and in the face of the surrounding circle of industry old-timers who carefully organize their own language, she replied cautiously: "Yes, I think it's a very good work, but I'm a little confused about the role played by the character of Xiao Meiyan in the first seven episodes." ”

"How?"

"Yes, I think the first seven episodes of Xiao Meiyan is more suitable for the role of a lonely warrior? She doesn't join them with Shikame, but she silently guards them in the dark, but that's also her weakness. In the despair chapter, she is conscious of facing her weakness, and even if her former companion Sayaka Miki becomes a witch, she will not help, and this process requires a lot of personal plot to highlight her changes. Wumore Liuli stretched out his little hand and gestured, because he was under the gaze of everyone and hurriedly lowered his head, and his voice became smaller and smaller. It wasn't until he finished saying his suggestion that his little face was already shy and red, and he said weakly, "Probably... That's how it feels." ”

Yu Kamiya pondered for a while and nodded and smiled: "The black cat's suggestion is very good, I will try to revise the original storyboard when I go back." ”

"The music is really in a more solemn English?" Shindoji, who was sitting in a conference chair and playing with a pen in his hand, suddenly asked, his long hair tied into a high ponytail, and he looked much more energetic than before.

Yu Kamiya shook his head: "No, Japanese is fine, the overall music style is mainly serious and sad, and I have already thought of a few good BGMs." ”

"Do you need a big-name voice actor? Now we have a lot of money, and it's more than enough to hire a few big-name voice actors. ”

"Please the most suitable one, we don't need a voice actor to drive the popularity of the work, but the popularity of the work to make the voice actor popular." Yu Kamiya thought about it for a while and said confidently, the cost of hiring a voice actor is about the same as hiring an actor for a movie, and if you want to hire a popular voice actor to dub the work, then the most expensive place for this animation may be the hiring fee of the voice actor.

Perhaps a little unfair, a well-known voice actor earns more than an animation supervisor, a planner, or even a company president. Of course, this doesn't mean that the voice actor industry is very mixed, just like animators, voice actors who are not popular are basically in a state of making ends meet, and they need to do odd jobs to maintain their basic life. Seiyuu also has its own specialized brokerage company, and if some voice actors are not popular no matter how they are trained, then they may also be charged a fee to pay the agent's salary.

Sitting across from Yu Kamiya in a white kimono, Ema Hara smiled calmly and tried to make her own suggestion: "How about adopting a narrative similar to flashbacks in the first seven episodes?" The hesitation of the protagonist Kamedoka is even more impactful after the seventh episode. ”

"Oh~~ It's not going to be Aetsuki, I think this suggestion is feasible." Yuuki Chixia raised her little hand and shouted, looking at her expression as elated as if she were joining in the fun.

――You don't have the brains to support it just because it was Uehara-sensei's suggestion.

A few black lines appeared on Yu Kamiya's forehead, and he turned his head to smile and nodded at Uehara Ezuki: "Yes, then can the specific story framework of the first seven episodes be handed over to the teacher?" ”

"Do your best."

"Aoi, what's wrong? Look preoccupied, and talk about your considerations. Yu Kamiya turned her head to look at Aoi Morishita, the only one in the room with a frowning willow eyebrow, her gaze fixed as if she was thinking about something important.

Aoi Morishita was silent for a while and asked: "Yo, what is the age positioning of the audience that "Madoka Magical Girl" is facing. ”

"It's about fifteen to thirty, and it's an adult-oriented animation."

"People at this age, even if they are animation lovers, don't like magical girl-themed animations." Aoi Morishita hugged her hands and sighed helplessly.

Kamiya smiled nonchalantly and said, "Of course, this is a breakthrough attempt in the subject matter. Leaving these external factors aside, how do you think of my work? ”

Putting aside the laws of the market? In this case, Aoi Morishita is not dissatisfied with the idea of the work this time, but it is better to say that when I saw the idea of the work, I already felt something incredible, and Yu Kamiya always seems to like to make breakthrough innovations in the subject matter.

Aoi Morishita looked at Yu Kamiya and tapped his head: "The idea of the work itself is very good, I have no doubt about that." ”

"Then it's decided, the production of "Madoka Magical Girl" has officially begun!"

・・・・・・

Based on the original work, there is a world of difference from the original.,Not to mention the change in the plot.,The first problem that Kamiya Yu solves is the choice of painting style.,Still continue the original new house painting style or choose another way? To be honest, Yu Kamiya didn't like the painting style of "Madoka Magical Girl" for the first time, but the subsequent plot development made him feel that this style of painting was also good, completely highlighting the gloomy and weird atmosphere of "Madoka Magical Girl", and the abstract portrayal of the witch was simply a must.

It's full of religion, art, and abstraction, and it looks like you don't know what it is, but you feel powerful. In terms of painting style, Yu Kamiya has made a fundamental change, using the abstract concept of stream of consciousness, for example, the performance of the witch is more like a famous painting like "The Scream" full of artistic style, which is fundamentally different from the new house style, but it is more difficult in meaning, abstract, and subconscious expression, and any picture in the realm of the witch has an incredible amount of information when intercepted.

Needless to say, the character design was handed over to Uehara Emitsu, who is good at gothic style.

Kamedoka: A cowardly, kind, ordinary, cheerful but characterless girl. [At the suggestion of Yu Kamiya, the pale pink hair was retained, and ordinary people and transformed magical girls were much more mature than the original characters, and the original socks became white stockings in the absolute realm. 】

Xiao Meiyan: After the personality change, she becomes rebellious, cold, unkind, and like a ruthless killer on a mission. [Black is long and straight, and it looks more cold and mature than the original. 】

Sayaka Miki: An optimistic young girl with a lot of energy, she is essentially a rather selfish person. [Still the image of a girl with short blue hair.] 】

Asami: An elegant aristocratic daughter, she is lonely and longs for companionship, because she made a wish to resurrect herself only when she was a child, and she has been in self-blame for not resurrecting her family together. [Unlike the original electric drill bit, Asami Ba has become a lady with long blond hair hanging down to her waist, and the prototype seems to be based on Alice Kumamoto, who left her job not long ago.] (To be continued.) )
