When Xiao Yui's theme song was almost sung and he started to make various adaptations, the animation was progressing quite quickly! In fact, generally speaking, the progress of animation shooting in Japan is actually quite close to American dramas in the United States. Half of the American dramas are filmed in the United States, and they are really not filmed first and then broadcast like in China. American dramas pay attention to minimizing investment risks, so it is generally the production company that has a good idea, and first find someone to sign a contract to shoot an episode. In this first episode, generally speaking, I find the best TV director to shoot it, shoot it as attractive as possible, and then go to various TV stations to sell it. When the TV station is willing to ask for it, the first episode of such a TV series will be scheduled to be broadcast.

Such a first episode is actually a test screening, when the test screening is good, the TV station will sign a contract with the production company, and then the production company will work overtime to start filming American dramas, basically to the point of one episode a week, and everyone is basically spinning on the axis. Then take 22 or 24 weeks a year, and then take a few months off to take a good rest. Why are there still holidays on the American drama? Mainly because in the summer, all kinds of sports competitions in the United States are about to reach the finals, and the gentlemen have snatched the remote control to watch the game! So in fact, even if an American drama is broadcast at such a time, the ratings will definitely not be very good! In this case, it is better to say that everyone has a holiday! Otherwise, wouldn't American TV still have to spend money to buy dramas from other production companies? When people buy it, it's all based on the number of episodes!

In a way, Japanese animation production is very similar to American dramas. It's just that they don't have any talk of a test screening. Relatively speaking, the production of animation in Japan was a part of the drama at the beginning. And then while it is broadcast, it will be produced at a faster pace every week. Basically, it's really fast to make. Because of the speed, a new episode of the cartoon is broadcast at the same time every week. This is completely incomparable with the daily broadcast of cartoons after the introduction of our Chinese side! If this is made every day in Japan, people really can't catch up! And if they let them make it on the air first, it will be a little bit out of the craze! After all, if you do dozens of episodes of cartoons, it may take months, and if the episodes are longer, it may take a year or two! So when the cartoon is done, I wonder if the craze for such a comic has gone down, who else will watch it?

So Japanese companies want to maximize their own interests. It's definitely going to be released as soon as possible while the manga craze is still there! Hence the tradition of making an episode every week! Under such a tradition, Wen Xun's "Fullmetal Alchemist" will of course be produced according to such a tradition. For example, for an anime like theirs, Kadokawa Bookstore is preparing to make ten episodes as a reserve, and then waiting for such a ten episodes to be released, so let's quickly make it and broadcast it at the same time! The reason why I did this is also to catch up with such a boom in the distribution of novels and comics! The production of ten episodes is overtime and outsourcing, and the whole speed is quite fast.

When Xiao Wei's theme song is almost done, the first ten episodes are basically ready. Then the next thing to greet is the broadcast of "Fullmetal Alchemist" from Kadokawa Bookstore! After such a message was announced in the Japanese media, it immediately caused a huge craze! On the one hand. The story of Fullmetal Alchemist is indeed quite popular in Japan right now. Not to mention that the novel is very good, the comics are also quite good! So the news that such a cartoon is going to be broadcast, of course, makes fans feel quite excited! But on the other hand, in addition to the praise and expectations. That's a concern, too!

What are the concerns? Some fans also expressed concern that such a rush to animate will lead to the generation of a large number of original animated plots? You must know that such a thing is not unfounded, it is a reality in many cartoons! In the production of Japanese cartoons in such an era. They haven't learned from the American production according to the season of the year or something, they Japanese do animation. That's how long you can do it! Once you start playing, make sure you make it to the manga finale! And in such a situation. Because of the advantages of their genre and medium, cartoons broadcast such an episode of more than 20 minutes a week far exceed the number of comics that a painter can draw in a week!

You must know that an episode of animation, counting the beginning and end or something, may be more than 25 minutes to 30 minutes, and the content that may actually tell the story is 20 minutes. But this 20-minute story is quite informative! In particular, after comparing the speed of manga artists, according to the popular manga in Japan, especially the popular manga serialized in "Shonen Weekly Jump", half of the weekly manga is the content of the content that needs to be handed over in a week. And the content of a sentence is on the carrier of "Shonen Weekly Jump", that is, there must be 18 to 20 pages of such a picture content! It's just such a speed, which can only be achieved by cartoonists desperately!

Because even if there are various assistants, if a cartoonist wants to draw a comic, it is not a simple matter of drawing! Half of them first had to think about what story such a week's serialized comic would tell! Just thinking about the story may have to think about a day or two, and then you have to prepare a storyboard This comic is a drawing after all, and the picture is to be divided, what picture is more important and needs to be larger, what picture and what division method, these are all things to think about! Maybe just thinking about such a storyboard will take about a day! It's been three days in one week! The next step is for the cartoonist and various assistants to work together, and the cartoonist first divides the frame of each page, and then draws a simple background sketch and characters in the frame. Then the cartoonist has to draw the character, and then hand over the half-finished picture to the assistant, who will draw the background, the speed line, and even the shadow paper.

Start working hard at such a time, and it takes a page to draw, and it doesn't mean that an hour or two is enough! So it often takes three or four days to draw eighteen to twenty pages! In the end, everyone was almost in time for the delivery! That's a lot of rush! But it can't be helped, who let everyone eat the serialized meal! Having said that, a manga artist can draw 1,820 pages a week, while an anime has to play 20 minutes a week, so it's clear that anime can't play an average of one page per minute, right? It is likely that the content of the cartoonist drawing a page is only 5 seconds in the animation!

In such a situation, even if the anime will accumulate dozens of episodes of content before starting to produce while broadcasting, but even so, one day the anime will catch up with the progress of the manga! What to do in such a situation? You can't say that it won't be broadcast at such a time, right? In the general perception, if the broadcast is stopped at this time, it will make many people who are inertia to watch such an animation every week unable to watch it, and then people may go to watch other animations! I went back and replayed it like this, and not many people watched it! That's why animation companies want to stay as popular as possible! But I've already caught up with the content of the manga, what can I do? So there is a lot of original content out of the show!

The so-called original content, in fact, is such an animation company has no choice but to produce some content that is not available in the original comics to delay time, waiting for the progress of the cartoonist to catch up again! As a result, in Japanese manga, there are often three or two original anime! It's because it's original once.,Waiting for the original author's comic progress to come up.,Even accumulated a part of the content.,Hurry up and animate it and broadcast it.,As a result, it's on the air.,The progress catches up again.,This has to be original again! So it's not an exaggeration for some fans in Japan to worry.,They are also worried that such an animation will be done too quickly.,After all, it's only accumulated ten episodes and it's been broadcast continuously.,This will definitely catch up with the progress of the manga soon.,Don't be flooded with a lot of original plots when the time comes? As a result, such an animation, isn't it a bit of a water injection ruined feeling?

It's understandable that people are worried, but in fact they are a little too worried. Because although Aunt Niu is a comic, it's true, but don't forget that Aunt Niu's speed is slow, Wen Xun's whole book has actually been written long ago! So in fact, if this animation is done, it doesn't take off the scene at all and doesn't inject water at all, and it can also be shot down and broadcast smoothly beyond the progress of the comics! Of course, on the other hand, if the comic is halfway through the plot, and the cartoons have already been broadcast, this is too much, so relatively speaking, when Wen Xun and Kadokawa Bookstore cooperated to produce an animation, they had already thought that they could drag the drama in the usual episodes! If you can talk for 5 minutes, you will never finish it in 3 minutes!

In other words, in fact, such an animation has been intentionally dragging since the first episode! In this way, before the overall broadcast is finished, let Aunt Niu's comics draw a little more! In such a situation, both manga and anime can be fruitful, right? It's better than suffering a loss in one aspect at that time, right? (To be continued......)
