Chapter 217: The Third Anime Popularity Survey
The high-level staff in the conference room of the animation production company, which is not a luxury, gathered together, to be honest, the style of painting is quite inconsistent, and the blonde legal Lori Yuki Chinatsu who will be mistaken is nibbling on snacks with nothing to do, Uehara Emitsuki, who has the traditional temperament of Yamato Nadeshiko, is leisurely drinking tea, Aoi Morishita, a workplace beauty with a serious and calm face, closing her eyes and recuperating, the dark gothic-style girl Gosagi Ruri carefully looks at the meeting participants around her, and there is a middle-aged decadent uncle who looks out the window and doesn't know what he is thinking. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In addition to summarizing the production of "Madoka Magi", this meeting also needs to discuss the animation changes in the subsequent episodes.
"Smack." Yu Kamiya, who had just entered the conference room, clapped his hands to attract the attention of all the members.
"Everyone is here, so there is a new staff member who needs to be introduced to you before the production summary of "Madoka Magical Girl". Come in, Dome. Yu Kamiya said, glancing around the conference room. As soon as he finished speaking, the door to the conference room had already opened, and Kamiya Dome, dressed in a smart black uniform, walked in. In the face of the surprised, curious, or happy eyes of many company executives, she tightly clutched the skirt of her suit uniform, wearing a black women's suit, and her soft silver hair was combed straight down to her waist.
"It's rude, my name is Kamiya Dome, and from today I will be the special assistant to President Kamiya. I don't have any special interest.,I just like to waste time on browsing the Internet information.,From today onwards, please give me a lot of advice.。 "Coming to the [Edge's Sky] animation production company, Kamiya Dome changed her previous indifference and retination, and introduced herself to all the company's senior executives generously and politely, but the monotonous introduction was enough to show that she was still not very good at social activities.
"Oh~ The dome is finally here, no problem at the school?" Chinatsu Yuuki asked with a grin as she bit the chocolate bar, and after speaking, she handed over the box full of chocolate bars in her hand and asked, "Do you want to eat it?" ”
Most of the executives of the animation production company knew about Kamiya Dome, and they also knew that she was about to join the company, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.
"No need, thank you."
Kamiya Dome shook her head, the part-time time was enough for her to understand Yuki Chinatsu's character, and she didn't resist her self-familiar personality, but she didn't want to make a joke on the current occasion.
"Dome?" Gogen Ruri's eyes widened, and she didn't understand why Kamiya Dome would join the [Yuanzhikong] animation production company at this time, and her surprise was also the confusion of most of the people present, what kind of trouble should Kamiya Dome not prepare for the most important national unified exam for high school students at this time.
"Welcome, work together in the future." Uehara Ezuki, who was dressed in a light black kimono, looked at her softness and stood up and said kindly to Kamiya Dome.
Shindoji looked at Kamiya Yu in surprise and then looked at Kamiya Dome, because the sound department is still in another corner of Tokyo, and usually only uses computers to contact Kamiya Yu except for important meetings, so this is the first time he has seen Kamiya Dome. He looked at Kamiya for a while before quipping, "It's really surprising, I didn't expect Kamiya to have such a lovely sister." ”
Yu Kamiya ignored Shindoji's statement and walked to Kamiya Dome's side, put his big hand on her well-groomed silver hair and smiled: "For some special reasons, even if Dome officially joins our [Yuanzhikong] animation production company today, well~ Everyone is not unfamiliar with her, so I won't say anything superfluous, Dome's body hasn't been very good since she was a child, so I think everyone should try not to give her too much burden and pressure." ”
"Qiong has come to the company to work part-time before, but there is still a long way to go before the official staff, Aoi, I want to leave Qiong to you for the time being, and you are responsible for taking her to familiarize herself with the company's operation process and so on."
When Kamiya Dome introduced himself, Morishita Aoi was a little distracted, and when he heard Kamiya Yu's words, he stood up expressionlessly and nodded: "Yes, the company will be busy during this time, and the addition of Dome can just help me share some of the pressure." ”
Kamiya Qiong breathed a sigh of relief and bowed lightly to Aoi Morishita.
"Then the meeting officially begins, Qiong, just find a place to sit down, your main job during this time is to familiarize yourself with the overall operation of the company." Kamiya Yu nodded to her and said softly, and after Kamiya Dome sat next to him, he began to summarize and discuss the production of "Madoka Magical Girl", and he handed out a few documents that he brought over and said solemnly: "Then the first thing that needs to be discussed is about the change of Sakura Kyoko's role, and there are major changes in the character attributes and related plots, so the lines and plots must be rectified once." Then there's the music, Xintang, so please design a new character song before the twelfth episode airs, and I'll give you a specific description of the requirements later. ”
・・・・・・
The meeting lasted for more than an hour, and after the meeting, Aoi Morishita took Kamiya Dome and took her to various departments to introduce herself, and the social circle of the original artist may be enough in the company's original art department, but the role of assistant or producer is different, and it is necessary to have a clear understanding of the overall environment of the company. Yu Kamiya returned to his office to continue the great cause of revising the original storyboard, and from time to time he used the computer to check the hot comments caused by "Madoka Magical Girl" on the Internet, and saw those viewers discussing Yu Kamiya with a smile, and once upon a time he had this attitude when he watched his favorite anime.
"Although the process is quite tragic, the plot process of "Magical Girl Naye" is just as distressing, and it has a heartwarming ending in the end! Nefi Saigao! - Murata-kun. ”
"Don't dream, will there really be a good ending under such a cruel animation setting? If they do get a good ending, the charm of this anime will be reduced a lot, and I don't believe that the ghost superintendent will not know this. - Cat mats. ”
"Yes~ Yes, the current animation tone is still dark, and it doesn't feel like a type of wanting to use a dark plot to accompany a happy ending. - Jiro is not stupid. ”
"That analysis post on the Internet has thoroughly explained that it will not be surprising that Sayaka Miki will also become a magical girl and reincarnate in the ending of the previous world. -- Autumn flowers and spring moon. ”
"At present, Happyend has a total of 38,298 votes in the audience vote, Bedend has 142932 votes, and the open ending has 50,231 votes. -- Tokyo Rioters. ”
The "Madoka Magical Girl" section of NiceNice was filled with heated arguments from the audience.
・・・・・・
"I'm sorry, I can't give you a good ending this time." Seeing the fans who fought for themselves and thought that "Madoka Magical Girl" would have a good ending, Yu Kamiya apologized silently and maliciously in his heart. In fact, he thinks that the ending of the original version of "Madoka Magical Girl" is open-ended, biased towards he, and the real be ending should be that all the members are blackened into witches to continue the next reincarnation, and then the blackened witches are defeated by the next magical girl and the picture stays at the end of the new magical girl with a satisfied smile when she defeats the witch.
It's not that Yu Kamiya hasn't thought about this ending, it's better to give up if he feels too malicious, he doesn't want to really receive the blade from the audience.
"Madoka Magical Girl" has reached its tenth episode, and the potential of the last world as an animation overlord has begun to emerge, and after seven episodes of plot twists and turns to bring horror topics, each episode continues to break through and climb. Since the seventh episode, "Madoka Magical Girl" has changed the previous relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, and the amount of content in each episode is quite compact and attractive, plus the plot direction that refreshes the entire anime worldview, from healing to extreme depression has complicated the minds of countless viewers, and the fate of magical girls such as Madoka Kamu has caused a lot of discussion on Twitter.
In addition to the plot reversal, Yuu Kamiya's adaptation of "Madoka Magical Girl" is much better than the original in terms of personality, and each magical girl has created certain attractive qualities. It is precisely because of the brilliance of each character that the resonance of the audience caused by their tragic fate will become stronger and stronger.
The so-called tragedy is to tear up beautiful things for others to see.
At present, the fans of "Madoka Magi" are basically divided into three factions, and countless debates have been launched on Twitter, ACG-related forums, or communication software.
In such a cruel worldview, what will happen to Kamedoka as a magical girl? Never able to escape the fate of death? Or one day become a bad puppet and be casually abandoned by QB, the audience can't imagine what a happy ending will be in such a cruel world setting. Those who insist on this statement are called "realists"
Many staunch fans of Yu Kamiya think that he will not make an animation with a be ending, and the first two magical girl genre works "RWBY" and "Magical Girl Naye" directed by Yu Kamiya have perfect endings. This is the saying of the [director's school].
There is also an analysis of the overall pattern of the animation, and the foreshadowing that has been proven is gathered to reveal the main plot line, but at present, the lack of clues does not allow this part of people to analyze the ending. This part of the audience is the "Analytical School".
Subverting the imagination of the plot, exquisite characters, industry-leading production, excellent music, "Magical Girl Madoka" has all the factors of popularity, and the potential of these factors is fully tapped by the changes in the seventh episode, and the effect achieved is only the word "phenomenal" can be interpreted, and the animation that originally took the sub-theme of magical girls as the worldview is more and more liked by young and adult audiences.

In less than three episodes since the seventh episode was broadcast, the popularity of "Madoka Magical Girl" has soared to 200,000 online, and it is only 20,000 miles away from the third-place "The Tale of the Brave in Another World". The most terrifying thing is that even the popularity growth rate of "Adventure King", which is promoted by large companies, is far behind by "Madoka Magical Girl", among which "The Legend of the Brave in Another World" is a season, with only twelve episodes in length, and the popularity growth has reached the limit, and it is a question whether he can maintain his top three positions in the popularity of January dramas before the end.
The most surprising thing for Kamiya Yu is "Mobile Suit 007", although audience satisfaction has declined, but the recent turmoil caused by the plot is not small, this "Gundam Seed" plot in another world has been initially launched, and the scene where the male protagonist exploded to kill the enemy Gundam team and rescued the Cosmic Singer made countless Gundam fans cry wolf, with the beautifully designed Cosmic Singer heroine a swan song, there is no reversal of the seventh episode of "Madoka Magica" but it has a good impact, known as " The most romantic scene in the history of animation".
In addition, the foreign animation market has not been affected by Japan, and the popularity of animation is ranked according to the preferences of European and American audiences, and Yu Kamiya may have a higher popularity of "Madoka Magi" than other animations because of "RWBY". According to the survey data released by the largest foreign exchange platform [Fake Book], the popularity ranking of Japanese January dramas is completely opposite to that of Japan.
The number one is deservedly "Madoka Magica",Because of the influence of Yu Kamiya's own fame,There are a lot of European and American audiences who pay attention to this animation from the beginning,[Yuanzhikong] animation production company and [fake book] company have always retained a cooperative relationship,This time, of course, they also spared no effort to promote "Madoka Magica" in the animation sector,A special animation discussion section was opened,The popularity growth of the first seven episodes of "Madoka Magica" was relatively flat, and after the seventh episode, it also showed explosive growth as in Japan.
The second most popular is "Mobile Suit 007", and European and American audiences also have a lot of love for radish slices, and in the last world, "Leap to the Peak", "Tianyuan Breakthrough", and "Neon Genesis Evangelion" have achieved good reputation and popularity in Europe and the United States. The last one in popularity is "The Adventure King",Maybe it's because there are too many European and American animations with similar themes.,The attention of this hot-blooded teenage animation has not been very high.,Most of the popularity still relies on [fake book] users in Japan to maintain.。 (To be continued.) )
