Chapter 268: The First Move

Yu Kamiya finished conceiving the future [King's Banquet] plot of "Fate/Zero" in the space of consciousness, and began to practice the storyboard of the seventh episode that needs to be drawn tomorrow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Fate/Zero" proposes the concept of magicians, so the battle between magicians naturally arouses the curiosity of the audience, what is a magician? How do magicians fight each other? What is the concept of magic? If Yu Kamiya wants to highlight the characteristics of the magician system, he needs to build battle scenes that surprise the audience.

The only thing that caught Yu's eye in the confrontation between Kiritsugu Emiya and Director Kenneth in the original work was the setting of [Moon Spirit Pulp], and the picture performance was not bad. However, this battle is really not exciting, it does not highlight the ability of the title of Emiya Kiritsugu [Magician Killer], and Director Kenneth, as an elite magician, has made fatal mistakes more than once, and the whole battle process shows how stupid and arrogant he is, contrary to the characteristics of magicians.

This time the magician clash deserves to be expanded with a full episode or even several episodes of cartoons.

"Fate/Zero is a very tight story, and there's no room for further expansion within the length of twenty-four episodes, so the best scenario would be to expand this episode of Magician Clash into a whole episode, and not too long. [Magician Killer] Emiya Kiritsugu is mainly based on modern weapons, and all kinds of means should be more sophisticated than a few words and a few shots in the original animation, such as setting traps to detect the functional use of [Moon Spirit Pulppel] instead of trying it himself, Director Kenneth has suffered a loss once and is so arrogant and conceited that it does not match the image of a magician, and it is necessary to highlight Kenneth as a magician is very powerful, very cautious, and finally unable to defeat the cunning plot impression of [Magician Killer]. ”

Yu Kamiya muttered inwardly, recalling the plot of the seventh episode that had been constructed in the consciousness space a few days ago, holding the original brush and starting to draw the storyboard of the seventh episode, so that the body of the consciousness space could remember the feeling when the original painting was drawn, and then return to the real world to easily "copy" this part of the storyboard from the consciousness space.

When the animation production company produced "Fate/Zero", the impact of the end of "Madoka Magical Girl" has not stopped, and the ending of episode 24 was even rated by the media as the most shocking animation ending in the history of District 11 animation, attracting more and more animation audiences.

The plot has gone through four major twists, the seventh episode unveils the world of reincarnation, the seventeenth episode of the tragic fate of Kyoko Sakura and Sayaka Miki reveals the truth of the magical girl, and the twenty-first episode of Akami Flame Witch turns into a witch to reveal the truth of the reincarnation world, and then the end of the twenty-fourth episode unes all the clues, and it is also the biggest turning point in the whole animation, the protagonist Kameen finally makes a wish to draw a happy ending to the whole story. The effect of the ending plot of "Madoka Magical Girl" is undoubtedly sensational.,Most of the viewers who are not deeply in contact with the animation are speechless after watching it.,It turns out that the theme of magical girls can also be limited to the animation with the sub.,It turns out that the animation can also appear this kind of plot.。

In the third week after the end of "Madoka Magical Girl", the animated BD was officially sold to the public.

・・・・・・

Shin Motegi is the owner of an animation video store, and a day ago he obtained the right to sell 300 copies of the BD of "Madoka Magical Girl" from regular channels, 300 copies of the same animation BD is a lot of money for an animation DVD store, just like a bookstore will not be idle to buy 300 copies of the same book, even if it is a popular animation, its BD can sell 100 copies in a DVD store is already quite an exaggerated number.

"Madoka Magical Girl" is different.,These 300 animated BDs are still from Shin Motegi himself.,Well~ Or should it be said that there are two hundred and ninety copies.,Because he asked for three of them.,Collection.,Borrowing and watching.,The other seven were ordered by the clerk who worked in the store.。 Before the "Magical Girl Madoka" BD was not officially released to the public, his store received more than 100 pre-orders, many of which were out-of-town customers who asked him to mail them over and were willing to pay a "courier fee", and the popular animation "Mobile Suit 007" in the same period also received more than a dozen BD pre-orders.

"Ikuta-kun, I'm going to trouble you next, the third sales rack is all emptied, and the bd of "Madoka Magical Girl" is put on it." Shin Motegi wiped the cold sweat left on his forehead, and looked at the scene outside the store with a wandering look, the glass door had not yet opened, and the people who came to buy the anime BD were about to crowd the storefront, which was completely opposite to the situation of yesterday's door. Shin Motegi can also see through the glass that many of the customers who come to buy the anime bd are wearing "battle robes" - T-shirts or coats printed with characters from "Madoka Magi" - solemnly looking like soldiers who are about to go to war.

"Yes."

The clerk named Ikuta swallowed his saliva, opened a bundle of "Madoka Magica" BD bags, and came to the cargo rack with the BD in his arms, and put the BD of "Madoka Magi" on it while tidying it up.

"Beep beep!"

When the clerk was frightened, he heard a sharp whistle, and everyone including Shin Motegi was relieved to hear this sound, which was a unique whistle of the patrol police in District 11, at least there was no need to worry about these people coming in and snatching the BD away.

"Hello, are you the clerk at this video store?" The young patrolman came and knocked on the door.

Shin Motegi went over and touched the sweat on his head and replied, "Yes, I'm the owner." Mr. Patrolman, I'm sorry, it's noisy in the morning. ”

"It doesn't matter, it's a business area. It's just that there are so many customers in your store, and there may be a dangerous stampede accident if you continue like this, so can you help put order in order? It's best to let customers line up without disturbing other passers-by. ”

"Okay~Okay!"

"And that's..."

"Speak, please."

"Ahem, are you selling the BD of Madoka Magical Girl? Can you keep a copy for me? Not a problem in terms of price. The patrolman, a young man, whispered embarrassedly.

Motegi was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded and smiled: "Of course, you can pick it up whenever you want." ”

On this day, Shin Motegi's daily sales of the DVD store had an unprecedented breakthrough, less than an hour after the store opened in the morning, all the BDs of "Madoka Magi" were sold out, and there was a steady stream of customers coming to the door to ask if the BD of "Madoka Magi" was still surplus in the afternoon and evening.

On the first day of public sale alone, the BD of "Madoka Magi" sold 80,000 copies! This is far from the real level of "Madoka Magica" BD sales, because this is all the shipments of "Madoka Magi" BD on the first day, and it is impossible to add one, and many bosses who sell BD DVDs lament that they have never encountered such a crazy day as today in their lives.
