Usually, when you hear words such as "Otaku", "X-silk", and "leftover man", you may immediately have a negative impression such as "this person must have few friends" or "a weirdo who does his own thing". But is that really the case? This time, let's walk into the world of solo men and explore their unique charm!

1. Have your own decision-making

"Compared with those who usually mingle with small groups all day long, act on feelings, have no self-opinion, and obey their words, the lone man is more decisive and has his own unique opinions." (21 years old/University student)

"People who spend all day in small groups will always pander to the actions or ideas of others, but the lone man will always have to make his own judgments, giving people a sense of clear goals for action." (20 years old/major)

"I have to talk to a friend!" Such indecisive ideas are no longer appropriate for the present era. It's good to have a lot of friends, but it's not good to be with friends all the time and lose your opinions. From this point of view, are the lone men who always act alone on their own will particularly attractive?

2. Be aware of the pain of others

"I feel that the lone man is more sensitive to the pain of others. When I'm hurt, they worry about me; When I'm depressed, they listen to me on the guò LINE. For those who have few friends, they will always be lonely on weekdays, so they will be more gentle with others. (25 years old/advertisement)

Some people choose to walk alone voluntarily, so it cannot be said that all solo men are able to empathize with the pain of others. But after all, he is usually alone, so there are indeed more kind-hearted men who travel alone. In addition, solo men like to scroll through Twitter in their spare time, and if you can start from this aspect, you may be able to get twice the result with half the effort. (laughs)

3. Pursue efficiency in doing things

"When I was in high school, there was a handsome guy in the class who would eat his poop quickly at noon every day and then fall asleep on the desk, which felt very handsome. I heard him say that he wanted to be able to concentrate on the afternoon class, so he wanted to get a little more sleep. I'm fascinated by such efficiency-supremacy ..."(23 years old / diet)

There is no need to pander to the people around you, just think about what is important to you and take action. This is the lone man who pursues efficiency. Giving up the things that you think are useless and focusing all your energy on what you should do, does a lone man become unexpectedly handsome?

4. Talented

"There are always a few weird boys in the front of the classroom who are listening alone, but they are often able to explain the problem in a very reasonable way when they are named, which makes people feel very knowledgeable. It might be fun to associate with them" (22 years old/college student)

"I feel that men who walk alone are not good at communicating, but they are often very talented. If you choose a lifelong partner, it may be more exciting to choose them than for mortals. (24 years old/Finance)

In fact, from a different point of view, the lone man may just be because there is too much gap between their level and the people around them, and they are not deliberately "no friends". It is not uncommon for successful people such as super popular actors and business district bigwigs to tell that they were once very withdrawn when they were students. I don't want to walk the same life as others, so I can succeed by accumulating all kinds of experience and becoming stronger. It seems that the lone man is still a potential stock!?

Conclusion: I wonder if you have a new insight into the solo men? In fact, it is debatable whether the characteristic of "few friends" can be called a negative impression. There are many people in the world who have accomplished great things on their own, and it is obviously not appropriate to stick to this old idea. Be your true self, Lone Rangers!

Spoilers for Hanada Toki! The animation of "Ship Niang" is mainly cute

For those who have been in charge of "LoveLive!", "Middle School and Second Disease, I also want to fall in love! "NOGAMENOLIFE" and many other popular works series constitute the position of Mr. Toki Hanada, I believe that everyone will not feel unfamiliar. Recently, Hanada Tokitsu guò magazine told fans about the content and thoughts of the new work "Fleet Collection ~ Ship Colle~", let's pay attention to it!

[Series Composition - Hanada Toki's message to the fans of "Ship Colle"]

INTERVIEWER What was Hanada's earliest impression of "Fleet Collection ~Ship Colle~"?

Toki Hanada: My first impression is definitely that "Fleet Collection ~Ship Colle~ is a very popular game." Later, I wanted to play the game myself, but I couldn't play it for a few days because I couldn't sign up. In fact, the biggest feeling I had when I played "Fleet Collection" was that "this game is full of love for the people".

INTERVIEWER How did you discuss the plot of this work with Kensuke Tanaka, who originally wrote the story?

Toki Hanada: First of all, I got the outline from Kensuke Tanaka about the composition of the story, and I started to work on it. Basically, I listened to Kensuke Tanaka talk about how "Ship Colle" was made with emotion, and then I proposed a plan to portray the story in such a way that even viewers who had never played the game before, and finally the two of us discussed and decided on these plans together.

INTERVIEWER As a part of the series, did you pay any special attention to how you depicted this game?

Toki Hanada: Through the mass media of guò TV animation, "Ship Colle" will be broadcast to a wide audience. This time, I focused on making it interesting for viewers who didn't know the original game or even what "Ship Girl" was.

- What do you want to say to your fans?

Toki Hanada: The joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the shipwives, as well as their various expressions and postures, will be presented to you in the form of guò animations. Deep-sea habitat ships and battles, etc., I will try to express the charm of these works as much as possible with other STAFF, and I hope you will enjoy it.

Toki Hanada: A well-known Japanese animator who is often responsible for the composition of the series and the script part of the animation. Born from the screenwriting group "ぶらざあのっぽ" led by Takashi Koyama, he is now affiliated with SATZ. As a well-known series composition, Hanada-sensei always writes the episode script by himself. In the adaptations, he often boldly processes the original story and adds parts that are not described in the original work. When constructing an original story, he often uses his own impressions to promote the characters, so that their personalities and descriptions, as well as the level of the whole work, are greatly improved. Representative works include "LoveLive!" and "Middle Two Diseases Have to Fall in Love!" ", "NOGAMENOLIFE Game Life", "The Other Side of the Realm", "Campione God Slayer! etc.

Heavy responsibilities! The output value of the Japanese animation market exceeded 240 billion

Japanese animation has become one of the major supporting forces in the national industry, and according to the General Research Institute of Media Development, the domestic animation market in Japan was worth 242.8 billion yen in 2013. This figure is also higher than the 241.5 billion yen in 2006. Compared to 2012, the number in 2013 increased by 4.2%, achieving two consecutive years of positive growth.

Every year, the General Research Institute for Media Development calculates the size of the animation market under the name of "Animation Market Analysis Planning". The statistics in this area are also conducted by organizations such as the Japan Animation Association, while the General Research Institute of Media Development conducts surveys on consumer spending in four areas: theatrical animation, video products, TV animation (including TV program production fees), and online delivery.

According to the General Research Institute of Media Development, the national series has maintained a strong momentum, the theatrical market (including overseas productions) has also achieved good results, and even the video product has grown for the first time in seven years. However, in terms of video products, due to the decline in unit prices and the impact of video dubbing, there is a downward trend.

However, on the other hand, the distribution market has grown tremendously. This is inseparable from the increase in distribution programs and the comprehensiveness of services. On the other hand, TV animation declined all day compared to the previous year.

According to past surveys, the animation market has been growing since 2000 (159.3 billion yen) and reached a peak of 241.5 billion yen in 2006. Since then, the market has shrunk, and the industry has struggled to grow its performance.

However, this time it has achieved two consecutive years of growth, and the output value has reached an all-time high. In addition, in 2014, there was the strong influence of "Frozen", and the distribution market continues to soar. As a result, the animation market should continue to maintain an optimistic development trend.

A successful conclusion! The number of attendees on the final day of C87 exceeded 210,000

C87, Japan's largest doujinshi sales event held at Tokyo Big Sight, has officially come to an end on December 30th. On the 30th, more than 210,000 people attended the exhibition, which also set a new record.

In addition, about 560,000 people enjoyed ACG at Tokyo Big Sight over the course of three days, surpassing the 550,000 people at C84 (winter 2012) and making it the largest number of people in the history of the winter exhibition.

On the 30th, about 15,000 groups attended the exhibition, and the temperature in Tokyo was around 11.3 degrees Celsius at noon, which may be one of the reasons why people want to go out. In terms of exhibition products, it is related to the animation "Lovelive! The related fanfices are particularly eye-catching. As for COS Plaza, there are also many otaku gathered, among which "Lovelive! ", "Ship Niang" and other popular works of COS have attracted a lot of attention.

A man in his 30s who participated in C87 as an individual at a game company said, "I come here every year, and this time I feel that there are significantly more women. In addition, the group is no longer centered on doujinshi, but more on peripheral products. ”

Comiket began in 1975 as a sales fair that sells comics, novels, games, music, and more. It is currently held twice a year, in summer and winter. The exhibition attracts nearly 200,000 visitors almost every day, and the total number of visitors reaches more than 500,000 per year, making it one of the largest events in Japan. In the three days of C87, about 35,000 societies participated in the battle, which is basically the same number as in previous years.

Idol master × tail line? Voice actress Anmi Asakura encounters a stalker

Today, Anmi Asakura, the voice actress who voiced Yukiho Hagiwara in "Idol Master", updated her blog and wrote about her thoughts and reviews over the past year, but a shocking fact is revealed in this article. In her blog post, Aakura said that she was often followed by the tail line, her home address was locked, and she was very scared to move many times to no avail. Here's the translation:

[2014: The Year of Heartbeat]

It's really smooth sailing at work!

Thanks to everyone's support, this year is also safe to usher in the end of the year (smile).

There are already several plans for next year's work, and I will continue to work hard to further evolve.

In particular, in 2013 and 2014, the number of fans who liked me increased much.

However, along with this, there is also a very distressing thing.

Followed on the street,

The home address is also locked,

It will also be suddenly intercepted halfway.

This is very distressing to me.

Have moved several times.

I was really, really scared.

For me, every fan is precious.

Thanks to everyone's support and warm words, I was able to persevere in the difficult period when I couldn't get a job.

If it weren't for everyone, I wouldn't be where I am now.

It is precisely for this reason that this kind of tail tracking is very sad.

However, I have received a lot of motivation from everyone throughout the year.

Letters of support and encouragement,

Voice support at the time of the meeting,

Messages received by the broadcast......

Abound.

Really, really, thank you very much.

To be honest, I didn't even have the courage to go on the public stage.

It is precisely because of everyone's savings that Asako Asakura will have this growth.

Anmi Asakura, December 31, 2014

As soon as this blog post was published, Japanese netizens were also outraged. In today's era of voice actors, there are many popular voice actors who have more or less experienced this kind of experience and distress, although most voice control fans are rational and friendly, but it is inevitable that there will always be a few extreme fans. I hope that the stalkermania problem faced by Anmi Asakura can be solved as soon as possible.

The official popularity voting list of "Fate/staynight" has been announced

As the first half of the popular anime "Fate/staynightUBW" comes to an end, the official café "ufotableCafe" has also held a large-scale voting event - "Fate/staynight" character popularity voting has also been held halfway, and the official mid-stage provisional ranking of this vote has been released!

[Fate/staynight Character Voting Interim Results]

1st place: Yan Feng Qili 2770 votes

2nd place: Archer 2479 votes

3rd place: Saber 2396 votes

4th place: Shirou Emiya 2045 votes

5th place: Iliya 1666 votes

11th place: Assassin (Kojiro Sasaki) 500 votes

12th place: Caster 432 votes

13th place: Shinji Maki 371 votes

The special thing about this vote is that this vote is not conducted online, but only every customer who comes to the official coffee chain "ufotableCafe" can vote, and every time you ask for a drink, you can get a vote, so the votes are basically pure fans, and the cost of swiping votes is relatively large, so the voting results can reflect the popularity of the characters.

It should be noted that because the store just held a special birthday celebration event on December 28, Mapo will be ranked so high, and it is expected to drop a little when the final voting results are released, but Mapo's popularity is also an indisputable fact. In terms of popularity in the past, the final first place should be between Archer, Saber, and Shirou, who is more deeply depicted in this anime. Let's wait for the final results.
