In fact, Tsukasa Higashino had the idea of bringing out the popular "Lemon" in his previous life.

As for why "Lemon" was promoted alone... The reason for this is actually quite simple.

In his previous life, Yonezu Genshi was considered a genius male singer in Japan, and there were many popular songs under his hands, and the most popular one was undoubtedly this "Lemon".

At that time, the number of letters was directly 2 million, and it was really a popular song among the young generation of Japan.

And when you combine "Lemon" with "Unnatural Death", there is really an indescribable chemistry.

"Lemon" is to "Unnatural Death" what Zhuge Liang is to Liu Bei, both sides are indispensable.

This is definitely not an exaggeration.

"Unnatural Death" expresses the idea of "making people have a correct view of death" and making people pay attention to the important destination of "death".

During the creation of "Lemon", the grandfather of the author Yonezu Genshi passed away, and this song just expresses his views on "life and death", which can be said to be closely in line with the theme of "Unnatural Death".

No Unnatural Death is complete without the companion theme song "Lemon".

As mentioned earlier, although Tsukasa Higashino is rough about music, it is still no problem to take out "Lemon".

At this time, with the opportunity of painting skills, Higashino Tsukasa naturally will not let go.

But...

"This drawing skill sounds a little strange." Tsukasa Higashino pinched his chin.

Painting Skill 'Tracing Phonograph': The viewer can hear the sound from the world of your work through your work.

Hear voices from the world of my work through my work?

How is this thing going to get through? Could it be that it can still be like the previous 97 version of "Dragon Babu" Qiao Feng appeared with the stereo?

Or do you add a special effect to your ears, and when Tsukasa Higashino only draws the key picture, "Lemon" will play in their ears?

That's a real problem.

Higashino raised an eyebrow, but he wasn't worried.

Although this damaged goods system has been put into the cold palace by him for more than half a year, the quality of the ability it produces is not to be said, and it does have a hand.

I don't say whether I can believe it, but I can try.

If the attempt is successful, it will make a lot of money, "Lemon" can find a home, and Tsukasa Higashino is also satisfied that he can rush to the average sales of two million volumes.

Even if Higashino didn't succeed in the end, it didn't matter, anyway, he didn't lose anything - the average sales of "Unnatural Death" was 1.5 million volumes, so naturally no one would have any opinion on him.

This is the general idea of Tsukasa Higashino.

Wait two more days for the second volume of "Unnatural Death" to be sold, and then the well-known points are estimated to skyrocket, and Higashino will redeem the skill of 'tracing phonographs' in his hands, and then try to add a special effect to the ears of Japanese friends...

It was just perfect.

Tsukasa Higashino made a decision in his heart, and at the same time watched the rising number of well-known points, wanting to wait for what would happen next.

It was a wise choice for him to keep his well-known points before and it was useless.

Two days passed quickly with this wait.

The second volume of "Unnatural Death" is officially released!

This time the release process is not as many moths as the last time the first volume was released.

Sakamoto of Mozuki Bookstore took the initiative to withdraw from the competition and said that he would close the pen, and Ozawada and Iwakaku Publishing House at the same time also felt that they could not compete with Tsukasa Higashino, so they made a special trip to stagger the date of sales at the same time as him - after all, everything in the publishing house is to give priority to interests, and there is no need to fight for a moment and even ignore interests.

And without Ozawada's competitor, the release of the second volume of "Unnatural Death" by Tsukasa Higashino this time can be described as smooth sailing, and many readers have said that it is good, and they continue to contribute to sales.

This [ ] has made some anonymous publishing houses and small publishing houses suffer.

The works under them are already niche, and they rely on the stickiness of readers... But no matter how sticky the reader is, it doesn't seem to be as good as Tsukasa Higashino's "Unnatural Death"...

Tsukasa Higashino's "Unnatural Death" really drove the roller back and forth until they couldn't move.

This is a one-sided massacre, and it also gives another glimpse of the combat effectiveness of "Unnatural Death".

Soon, the results of the one-hour emergency count on the Urashima publishing house - 20,000 copies sold in one hour!

Without the competition between Sakamoto and Ozawada, the sales of "Unnatural Death" actually rose again.

Mozhu Bookstore and Iwakaku Publishing House, which had the most fierce competition with Tsukasa Higashino before, simply chose to be blind at this time, and they didn't talk about it at all.

This time, I can't cure Tsukasa Higashino at all.

Depending on the situation, "Unnatural Death" is really about to reach 1.5 million copies and become a phenomenal comic.

Losing to such a phenomenal comic, to be honest, is not wronged.

That's what people are.

If you outpass him by a narrow margin, he'll think you're lucky, but if you crush him and knock him to the ground and beg for mercy... Instead, he will think that you are strength.

This is very normal, and if you are not convinced, you must be convinced.

And when "Unnatural Death" was about to become a phenomenal manga, the Japanese manga market, which was originally like a backwater, actually underwent some changes.

Unlike the previous robot comics, a variety of professional comics began to emerge into the market.

There are forensic doctors, lawyers, doctors, and teachers.

In this case, if it sounds good, it is imitation, but if it is bad, it is actually to follow the trend.

But in fact, in Japan, this kind of following trend is quite common, and in the future, Japan will also write about different world themes... It's all a normal wind direction problem.

But for comics practitioners, this is a change and a good sign.

You must know that Japanese manga has stopped in robot manga for too long, and it is about to enter the long grass period.

A pool of stagnant comics market, only all kinds of robot comics with similar plots... To be honest, comic book authors are not tired, they are all tired of watching, in a word, it is-

Why are you thinking about your broken robot comics?! Can't you jump out of the circle of robot comics?

There weren't many comic book authors before who were willing to jump out of robot comics.

But with Unnatural Death about to become a phenomenal comic... Some people are already experimenting with other genres.

Does this mean that the peak era of Japanese paper comics is coming again?

If Higashino knew what they said, he would probably shake his head with joy.

In a few years, the Internet era will come, and smart phones will appear, and your peak era is estimated to be beaten back to its original shape all of a sudden.

But now is a situation to look forward to.

There were even people who excitedly posted on the forum, saying that "Unnatural Death" set a precedent for professional manga in Japan? Is Tsukasa Higashino the founder of the Japanese professional genre manga? It's okay to say that the father of professional manga in Japan is no problem?

It turns out that no matter where you are, discussions with the titles of 'Father of XXX' and 'Founder of XXX' are always prone to controversy.

The term "the father of professional manga in Japan" has certainly aroused discussion among others.

Some people say that professional manga has been around for a long time since the beginning of Japanese manga, so the name Tsukasa Higashino is inappropriate, and Tsukasa Higashino started with horror comics, which is even more inappropriate.

Some people say that this title is actually more secure, after all, Tsukasa Higashino's "Winner is Justice" and "Unnatural Death" are all professional type comics.

There are many arguments like this.

But those who were opposed to Tsukasa Higashino were speechless in the face of a post.

That's what this post says.

Regardless of whether it is suitable or not, and no matter what we think, I just want to ask, there are so many people who draw professional type comics, has anyone really come up with a professional type of comic with phenomenal influence? Never, right? "Unnatural Death" is not qualified, is it possible that those comic book authors who have no achievements are qualified?

As soon as these words were spoken, most of the previous controversies disappeared.

Because this post does make sense, although the predecessors have drawn professional type comics, they have only drawn them, and they have not really made achievements.

"Unnatural Death" has become a phenomenal manga, but it cannot be called the "father of Japanese professional manga", so is it possible that those manga authors who have not produced results and whose grades are worse than those of Tsukasa Higashino are qualified?

That doesn't make any sense.

This post is a slap in the face to those who speak against the tune, and the honor of the comic is based on strength and plot, not on lip service.

"Unnatural Death" has a good score, so it can slap them in the face like this.

Conversely, if the results of "Unnatural Death" are not good, then they can also desperately mock "Unnatural Death"... This is quite normal.

But Rao is like this, and there are still people who raise the bar under the post, showing a kind of essence of the bar.

They said that Tsukasa Higashino should at least build his own manga studio, right?

Since you're the founder, you don't even have a comic studio, so it's too ugly to be a single, right?

This statement is a bit of a strong argument, but it is really on point.

It's true that Tsukasa Higashino doesn't have his own manga studio.

For a comic book writer of his level, there should be seven or eight apprentices, right? You have to have five or six comic assistants... Otherwise, it can't be justified.

As the center of the discussion, Tsukasa Higashino is still quite interested in these discussions.

Before he drew "Unnatural Death", he was already thinking about whether "Unnatural Death" could improve his social status and win the title of "the father of professional manga in Japan".

And now that "Unnatural Death" is on fire, Tsukasa Higashino certainly has this idea.

After all, people go to high places, and if they can go to the top, they should go up as much as possible... It's human nature.

However, it is clear that his title as the "father of professional manga in Japan" has not yet been fully recognized.

The average sales volume of 1.5 million volumes is still not strong enough for them.

Sure enough, you still have to sacrifice the big killer weapon of "Lemon".

While Tsukasa Higashino was still thinking about it, Yumi Takahashi, who came over as a guest on the other side, had already wiped her tears, and took off her headphones with a sigh and said, "This song sung by Miss Oura is also so good..."

"Miss Oura?" Tsukasa Higashino came back to his senses and looked at Yumi Takahashi.

"It's Miss Oura Yukie... It's a singer who has suddenly become popular recently, and it's said that he also killed... Belch... crushed a lot of previous senior singers, and seems to be a genius... It's the one who has often been number one on the distribution list lately. Aoi Fujiwara explained to Tsukasa Higashino.

Then Aoi Fujiwara frowned again: "But I don't like her very much... She's a little arrogant, the last time she was on a radio talk show, she disrespected those seniors and old singers. ”

"Really?" Tsukasa Higashino came to be interested.

He was still thinking about whether to sacrifice the killer weapon of "Lemon", but Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara told him about it.

"It's normal for young people to be arrogant." Yumi Takahashi retorted, and then handed the earbuds of the Walkman to Tsukasa Higashino: "How is Mr. Higashino?" Want to hear it? This song is her famous song. ”

"Hmm. Listen to it. Tsukasa Higashino didn't refuse, and it was just a good time to learn about the development of Japanese music in the world.

He put the headphones on, and the moment he put them into his ears, he was attracted by the gentle and soft voice of the other party.

Well... That's really a good song.

Lyrics and sheet music... It's no wonder that the other party has always been on the first place on the distribution list.

The distribution list is not the same as the Japanese public trust list mentioned above, and the "distribution list", which means "release resources on the Internet for download" in Japanese, also has the meaning of "live broadcast" in later Japan, in other words, the number of downloads of songs on the Internet.

This statistic is relatively objective and intuitive.

The public trust chart is different, it mainly counts the sales of records and CDs, but some idol groups can increase the sales of CDs or records by selling things like 'handshake tickets' - it is normal for a fan to buy a dozen or even twenty CDs in order to be able to shake hands with idols. (There have even been cases where fans have spent more than a million yen on handshake tickets and said to their idols for more than an hour I love you.) )

This naturally leads to unfair statistics on the public trust charts, and this is the reason why many people call idol groups that sell millions of albums a cancer in the industry.

Therefore, the distribution list, which has an intuitive download statistics with personal certification, is more intuitive and more reliable than the Japanese public trust list.

Like Yonezu Genshi's "Lemon", it has been dominating the first place on the distribution list at the beginning, and it has lasted for a long time, and even directly broke through the two million delivery download certification later... At that time, there were fewer than ten songs in Japan that reached this height.

This is sung by the younger generation of Japanese people at a terrifying level - many people call it to witness history.

This also shows how important the list is for young people in Japan who love songs.

As for the sales on the public trust list... They'll just have fun.

Who can beat the group of idols who sell a million CD albums at every turn?

Higashino Tsukasa listened to the song sung by this Oura Yukie, and his eyebrows were slightly raised, and an idea came to his mind.

This man really sings well... Why don't you hire a singer to sing "Lemon"?
