Chapter 932: Comparison
Limited by time, it is impossible for Shen Xin to read all the single books of "The Gate of Eternal Life" carefully, so he can only take a rough look.
There are few comics that do not collapse, and "The Gate of Eternal Life" is no exception.
In the later part of the plot, there are actually signs of collapse, but Uematsuno adjusts in time, throwing out a big setting "The Gate of Eternal Life" Although it is real, its essence is related to the lives of ordinary people, that is, whenever an immortal appears, where the "Gate of Eternal Life" is located, a plague will break out.
After this setting came out, the characters in the story were immediately divided into two factions. Some of them want to destroy the "Gate of Eternal Life", while others want to get the "Gate of Eternal Life".
The contradictions of the story are thrown again, and the plot becomes much more tense.
Subsequently, the power system of "The Gate of Eternal Life" was upgraded again, which also lengthened and laid the foundation for "The Gate of Eternal Life".
Shen Xin roughly browsed it and had a general understanding of this comic.
The overall framework did not collapse, which is also because the "map" of the story is large enough to fit so much content, and then it can be slowly expanded.
After 14 years of serialization, "The Gate of Eternal Life" has amassed a lot of popularity.
In District 11, if you want to surpass "The Gate of Eternal Life" in a short period of time, it is basically impossible, and Shen Xin's mentality is relatively calm. As for the ranking of "IC Future", to be honest, Shen Xin doesn't attach much importance to it now.
The rankings of the two magazines are very similar to Shen Xin's guess.
Since the second episode of the serialization, "SD" has been hovering between 3 and 6 in "Young LEA", and on "IC Future", Shi Qun and Jin Yingchen's "No Demons in the World" was also officially serialized in the 27th issue.
During this time, "SD" was in the early stage, Hanamichi had just entered the basketball club and started training, so when the first two episodes of "No Demon in the World" were serialized, the ranking temporarily surpassed "SD", and was soon surpassed by "SD", which made Jin Yingchen feel a great surprise.
This proves that SD is not invincible.
At least, in Jin Yingchen's heart, that's what he thinks.
The plot in the early stage of "SD" is relatively bland, but there is no shortage of highlights, for example, in the first duel between Hanamichi and Mu Gangxian, Hanamichi inadvertently pulled off Mu Gangxian's sweatpants, making him lose himself.
At that time, many readers burst out laughing when they saw this scene.
"It's funny that Ikebana gave Mu Gangxian the nickname 'gorilla'."
"However, don't say it, it's really quite similar, especially when Mr. Shen deliberately drew the appearance of a gorilla, it looks even more similar."
"And what about Liu Chuanfeng? Ikebana called him 'Fox'. ”
"Ikebana gives me the impression that he is a very arrogant person, who always says, 'I'm a genius,' and often talks about the time he won against the gorilla."
"Don't say it, it's true. But I can't hate this guy at all, but I think he's so cute. ”
"Because Ikebana is a very simple person, even if he takes some things to heart, he will show them in other ways."
"Force value ax, from the current point of view, no one in the comics can beat him."
"That Coach Anthy is also cute, chubby, and unforgettable."
"His waist is very thick, so it feels good."
……
In "IC Future", "SD" is second to none in popularity, but in terms of popularity on the popularity list and major lists, it has not yet entered the top five.
It always takes a process for a new book to go from serialization to gathering popularity and being recognized by the whole platform.
In "Young LEA" in District 11, it is more difficult to break into the front row. Needless to say, a top-brand manga like "The Gate of Eternal Life", and other top-ranked comics, are not easy to mess with.
At the same time, District 11 has more comic genres than Huaxia, like ambulance, food adventure, ghost hunting, history, funny, ...... There are various types of comics, such as "The Strongest Pitcher", which has an average volume of nearly half a million copies, and only ranks 5th and alternates with "SD".
Haruka Tamagawa also sighed again and again at this result, "The Strongest Pitcher" has been serialized for two years, and now it is entangled with a manga that has just been serialized for two or three months, and I feel very unaccomplished.
Shi Ze kept persuading him, "What's wrong with the 5th?" The fifth shows that "The Strongest Pitcher" is stable, which is the most important thing. "SD" seems to be a beautiful scenery, who knows what level it will be after a year or two of serialization? Well, it's better to be 5th? ”
Haruka Tamagawa smiled bitterly, based on past experience, after two years of serialization, the results of "SD" should rise. However, what Shi said is right, no one can say what will happen in two years.
"The single book of the first volume of "SD" should have come out, right?"
"Yes, the next issue of "Young LEA" will start to be promoted, and the first volume given by the magazine is 500,000 copies." Shi sighed.
"So tall?" Tamagawa said in a lost voice.
"S Dunk" has only been serialized for a few months, and the first single book of "The Strongest Pitcher" has been published in only 400,000 copies.
"It's really high." Shi shook his head, with envy in his eyes, "But you must know that the sales of the single book of "IC Future" to the first volume reached 700,000 copies. It is estimated that the first volume of "DN" almost broke a million copies, which gave them confidence, right? ”
Tamagawa shook his head.
The fact that the first volume of "DN" can sell so much is actually a combination of factors.
Before the end of "Steel Forge", the length of multiple serials reached more than 40 pages, and the heat set off at that time almost overwhelmed "The Gate of Eternal Life", and in China, "Steel Forged" was even more violent, almost overpowering all comics.
"Steel" has just ended, and the popularity has not dissipated, and the new work "DN" has already come out, so "DN" has used the popularity of "Steel" to a certain extent. Moreover, "DN" is an evil comic, which is quick to get into the topic, and it is easy to attract readers in the first place.
"SD" does not have these two situations, so the first edition of 700,000 copies is still an exaggeration.
Considering that the market in Huaxia is indeed larger, "IC Future" should have its own reasons for doing this, right?
Thinking of this, Haruka Tamagawa is looking forward to the first week of sales of "S Dunk".
……
"IC Future" and "Shonen Lea" set the release date of the first volume of the single book on the same day, and distributed promotional posters at major bookstores in various cities.
In Huaxia, in addition to the traditional sales model, "IC Future" can also adopt the online booking model, which allows some readers who do not have time to buy a single book to read the comic for the first time, of course, the cost is slightly higher than in the bookstore.
This model has greatly facilitated some people with poor legs, for example, young people who have returned from abroad and want to be coaches, Zhai Yang.
