In addition to MIC Animation, there are three other animation production companies that have also invested heavily in animation production in the October quarter.

They are Westport Pictures, Kawaguchi Studio, and Asuka Society.

These animation production companies are also excellent animation production companies in the industry, except for the Tokyo animation production company, and they are also very well-known in the industry.

But in the same way, because they can only be regarded as an 'excellent animation production company', they can't reach the level of a top production company like Tokyo Animation, and their status is not low.

So on the whole, the positioning of these three companies is still a little awkward.

Among them, Westport Pictures mainly produces animations around toys such as science fiction and mechas, Kawaguchi Studios is mainly animation of the hot-blooded fighting hero type, and Asuka Society is very Buddhist and casual, almost indisputable with the world, and the production is a relatively unpopular animation about female lily.

At this time, in addition to the Asuka Society of the Buddhist system. Westport Pictures and Kawaguchi Studio are also watching the three-minute film "Winner is Justice", which has gradually gained a certain degree of discussion on the Internet.

Many staff members looked at each other, and they could be described in one word - caught off guard.

It was indeed caught off guard.

They have also followed the production of "Winner is Justice" since the beginning of production, but after the PW arson case, they have not continued to pay attention.

After all, in this situation, it is basically impossible for "Winner is Justice" to jump out and stir up the situation, so they diverted their attention and turned to other strong competing works in the same period... But who would have thought that after studying the works of the other three clubs for a month or two, Higashino Studio, which had been silent and silent, suddenly jumped out and played the cards in his hand.

It's like if you play the landlord, there is only one card left in your hand, and you feel that you have a sure win, and then the farmer who has not spoken suddenly shoots the king bomb, and a plane plays all the remaining dozen cards... Anyone will be confused for a while because of this situation.

And the animated promotional video was simply to pave the way for the new work.,By the way, ask for the audience's support for gadgets... As a result, this Higashino teacher directly released the feature film.

Everyone is still sharpening their knives, and you just start taking knives to kill people, which is really a bit of a martial arts.

But I have to say that Higashino's behavior of showing the knife in advance is really useful, and many people who pay attention to the animation in October have been attracted to it, and the traffic is huge.

This situation has made these four animation production companies a little red-eyed.

It didn't cost much to achieve this kind of publicity effect, and it can already be said to be very successful.

So they looked at each other, and MIC Animation Production Company first followed this routine of Higashino Studio, and secretly dropped a three-minute film of "Takagi-kun Next Door" under the official website.

This sudden change made both Westport Pictures and Kawaguchi Studio a little scolding, which was shameless! Another person has a bright knife! It's clear that there is still more than half a month before the release time, why are you in such a hurry

They shouted and cursed in their mouths, but the movements in their hands did not stop at all, and they also uploaded a series of videos, showing knives and preparing to kill.

On the other side, the Bird Club is still slow and methodical, doing its own thing, showing that it doesn't care.

Even if you see that several companies in the same period have already shown their knives to kill themselves, they don't bother to move and resist? The word 'Buddha' has been taken to the extreme.

Soon? Something happened that made onlookers confused - it's not yet the time for the release in October, but the official websites of MIC Animation Production Company, Westport Pictures, and Kawaguchi Studio have already put two to three minutes of finished videos below... The reference to Higashino Studio is quite significant.

It's just that passers-by don't care if you learn from it or not? It's already a joy to have a finished film to watch.

They slipped through the promotional videos of these four October hegemony animations? Soon most people reached a consensus - although it was good, it was really the three-minute film of "Winner is Justice" that was more classic.

Went around and around again.

This made animation production companies such as Kawaguchi Studios frustrated.

Are they just flashing their swords in a hurry? Who would have thought that it would be compared to Higashino Studio?

There are also people who scold them that the three-minute film can't even compare to Higashino Studio, which has a two-month construction period, and has no plans to make it well? Shame on you.

This makes them cry out for injustice.

Because anyone with a discerning eye can see it? This is actually an animation that they spent a lot of manpower to make, and the quality is very high, but compared to "The Winner is Justice", it is naturally a little dwarfed.

Of course? This kind of active spraying is only a minority? Many people have started a discussion around the situation of this October animation.

On the other side, Higashino Studio is naturally not idle.

After the release of the promotional video, Higashino Studio is also in full swing to complete the production of the next "Winner is Justice", striving to promote it to the production of post-production special effects and sound effects in one go.

Similarly, Ryukazu Yano and several animation supervisors also started a study of the October animation competitors.

This made Higashino Tsukasa a little curious as well.

When I was at Urajima Press? He's been researching Iwakaku Publishing House and Mozuki Bookstore, but he hasn't paid much attention to the Japanese animation industry in the world. I also lack a certain understanding of the famous companies in this world, so I found a place to audit.

"That is? There are four main competitors this time, namely MIC Animation Production Company, Westport Pictures, Kawaguchi Studio, and... Hmm..."

Yano Ryuichi hesitated for a moment as he read the prepared documents.

"What's wrong?" Tsukasa Higashino, who was sitting next to him, looked up at Ryuichi Yano? He happily asked, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"No? Just inside these four companies? The situation of Asuka is special. Yano Ryu replied with one side of his head.

Special?

Tsukasa Higashino became a little interested, and Yano Ryuichi also took advantage of it and began to explain to him the Asuka Society, an animation production company.

This animation production company can be regarded as a relatively peculiar kind in the industry.

I love to make some unpopular.、Lily animation about the daily life of women.,And basically no quarrel with the world.,Slow and leisurely.,Plus the quality of each animation of the Asuka Club is very good.,So it's very popular among some special groups who love lily animation.。

Because of this, the Asuka Club basically doesn't have to worry about its own animation production, and there will always be die-hard fans who pay for it anyway.

It's the first time Higashino has heard of this, and it's also the first time he's known that there is such an animation production company, so he smiled: "It's really interesting." ”

His happy appearance made Ryuichi Yano next to him can't help but scold.

It must be interesting, Mr. Higashino... This is our competitor this time... Mr. Higashino, you're still smiling and looking happy... It's too stress-free, isn't it?

"The quality of the Asuka Society's animation is very good, I'm afraid it's our fierce rival this time." Yano Ryuichi reminded him in a whisper beside him.

"Really?" Higashino Tsukasa understood the meaning of the reminder in Yano Ryuichi's words, but he still laughed: "It's okay, Asukasha's work can't compare to "Winner is Justice". ”

It may be a bit immodest to say this, but that's what Higashino really thinks.

He has watched the finished film of "Winner is Justice", many of the pictures in it are personally handled by himself, he is very confident in "Winner is Justice", and he has also done a good job of psychological positioning, feeling that this October is definitely the season of "Winner is Justice" massacre.

Not to mention that now is the stage where it is necessary to cheer up Higashino Studio, after all, it has to compete with so many animation companies.

Tsukasa Higashino, the leader of the army, must not say some discouraged words to 'shake the morale of the army'.

And in Higashinoji's view, great is powerful, strong is strong, and it won't be because you're humble that your work will get better, and it won't be because you're humble that someone else's work will get worse.

Can't "Winner is Justice" knock out the work of other companies, and then he goes up and sighs and looks at the other animation production companies lying on the ground and says, "Our work is not good, thank you, I agreed", right?

So at this time, it's just a little neater.

Yano Ryuichi obviously understood Higashino's thoughts, but he couldn't just say yes - if he talked too much, if the gutter capsized at that time, it would be a black dot that was scolded by someone.

He selectively skipped the topic and instead handed out the information in his hand and continued to introduce it.

With Ryuichi Yano's introduction, Tsukasa Higashino quickly learned about the strengths and weaknesses of each animation production company in October.

For example, MIC Animation Production Company focuses on the animation of youth daily love, and it is naturally lacking in combat, while the main style of Westport Pictures and Kawaguchi Studio is the situation of fighting blood, so it is natural to give up in love... As for a niche company like Asuka Society, it focuses on lilies, and it is very ethereal, making people unable to figure out the number of roads.

Naturally, this is not an exaggeration, some animation production companies are not good at producing, like the Tokyo animation production company, which can do almost everything, and it is quite rare in the industry to be all-round.

And the attitudes of major animation production companies towards Higashino Studio are also different.

MIC produced a film with good results a few days ago, both in terms of sales and profitability, they didn't particularly care about the menacing Higashino Studio, and they were even willing to fight with Higashino Studio with a bayonet, and with "Takagi-kun Next Door" and Higashino Studio, they shared life and death.

And Westport Pictures' "Galaxy Century" is not optimistic, the animation produced last time was not particularly popular, and the sales results can only be said to be average, although the sales of related peripherals and screening rights have returned a lot, but this time the foundation is unstable, and I don't really want to have a big fight.

Kawaguchi Studio is a veteran studio, and it feels that "Guns and Fire" will not fall behind no matter who fights each other, and even made a special trip to congratulate Higashino Studio, which is full of provocation.

Needless to say, the Flying Bird Club is a Buddhist system that stands out, and it doesn't even bother to make announcements, and even the propaganda PV is extremely reluctant to squeeze out a little bit after a long time.

Generally speaking, it is worth paying attention to the three animation production companies of MIC, Nishigang, and Kawaguchi, and Asuka Club has almost no offensive power.

Tsukasa Higashino didn't hesitate to let the animation supervisors, including Yano Ryuichi, focus more on these three animation production companies when they observe the market, as for Asukasha... Originally, female lily animation was a relatively niche theme.,It's the kind of genre that you don't have to care about at all.,Just let it go.。

This is the end of the meeting, Yano Ryuichi and their group of supervisors still have things to do, especially Yano Ryuichi has to go to the TV station to communicate about the animation screening, so everyone is busy scattering.

Only Tsukasa Higashino was left in place, like an idler.

But this is also a matter of course, the original artist's work has been completed, and there is no point in him staying here alone, so he took a look at Higashino Studio, which was much quieter than before the anime, and turned away.

It is worth mentioning that Chixia Yamagami secretly turned on the computer again, and typed in the last row crackling, and Higashino didn't need to look at it, he knew that this product must be surfing the Internet... Become a keyboard warrior.

Tsukasa Higashino walked downstairs without hesitation.

And at this time...

"Is it really okay if we come here without saying hello?" Konoe Lianghua whispered a question about the two dead friends around her.

"Lianghua, you're embarrassed to say it." Yumi Takahashi tilted her head sideways and looked at Ryoka Konoe and scolded: "Look at your honest appearance, you actually come here with us behind your back every day." ”

"I... I just have nothing to do after I finish drawing... That's why I'm going to come here to see how it's going. ”

Ryoka Konoe was immediately speechless, and she was powerless to refute what Yumi Takahashi said.

Because she does sneak around Higashino's studio every afternoon after school... I was just wondering if I could see Tsukasa Higashino...

But her face is very thin, and if you ask her to go upstairs to find Tsukasa Higashino, she is a little embarrassed, thinking that it may affect Tsukasa Higashino's work, so she is downstairs and guards like an iron man.

Each time I waited, it was more than half an hour...

And Ryoka Konoe's recent strange behavior has also attracted the attention of Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara.

They followed Ryoka Konoe and went directly to the bottom of Higashino's studio.

Originally, they thought that Ryoka Konoe was going to go upstairs and make out with Higashino Tsukasa, but they didn't expect the other party to just stand and wait... Even Yumi Takahashi, a simple man, scolded a few times, isn't it a bit silly for Konoe Lianghua, and at this time, he should take the initiative to attack.

Dealing with people like Higashino Tsukasa should be like this, taking the initiative to attack, a set of straight punches, can hit Higashino Tsukasa's whole brain dizzy.

So there is the current scene.

Yumi Takahashi and Aoi Fujiwara want to take Konoe Ryori upstairs.

Just when they were moving left and right, wanting to surprise Tsukasa Higashino-

"What are you doing?"

The three of them looked up.

Tsukasa Higashino, who had already gone downstairs, looked at the three girls with a curious expression.
