Chapter 255: Repercussions
The news that "Chess Soul" will be made into October has attracted the attention of "Chess Soul" readers after it first appeared on the Internet.
Regardless of whether they are readers of "Chess Soul" or not, when netizens saw the news that Long Yao and Orochi jointly produced an animation, they immediately thought it was fake news.
Subsequently, ComicFuture, Shonen Leap, Long Yao and Orochi jointly issued a statement confirming the authenticity of the news.
In an instant, the "ComicFuture" section of the Manjia.com forum was almost all about discussing this news.
"Longyao Company! I was still curious about which company would produce "Chess Soul", but I didn't expect it to be Long Yao. ”
"Me too, I always thought it was Yingyin, and it was estimated that it would be the same as "Hunting Abyss", but I didn't expect "ComicFuture" to find Long Yao...... I suddenly had expectations for the anime of "Chess Soul". ”
"You missed it, there's Orochi in District 11."
"Is Orochi amazing?"
"You don't know, don't you? Have you seen "The World That Doesn't Exist"? Last year, the top ten touching animations in District 11 ranked first, not only the production is exquisite, but the music is also good. ”
"I know, I bought CDs too."
"This is the company that made it. One of the pillars of "Shonen Leap", the hot-blooded comic "World of the Dead", which ended last summer, launched the October episode, which was also done by them. ”
"Damn, I watched it, the scene of the fight at the end was super burning, which made people's blood boil."
"The animations made by Orochi are all classic, and the only drawback is that the number of works is too small. It's like they're going to make one anime at most for a quarter. ”
"Huh? So how do they make money? ”
"Sell CDs and videotapes. Because it is so well made, the work is collectible. I remember that their BD sales almost caught up with DVDs, in short, the district, very powerful. ”
"Ah...... Why isn't it October, the animation created by Long Yao and Orochi, I really want to see it. ”
"In fact, let's not talk about the quality of the animation, there are two animation companies working together, at least to ensure that the picture will not collapse."
"Now, we just have to wait until October...... However, it feels like it's hard to wait. ”
"Excuse me, is "Chess Soul" good?"
"It's beautiful, but you have to read it in one sitting, don't stop."
"Why? What if you can't finish it in one sitting? ”
"Then read it in two breaths."
“……”
"Don't listen to the above, this comic is a bit slow and not too high. Tide. However, as long as you can read it quietly, you will find that this manga is really good. ”
“+1! I also thought it was plain at the time, but later I realized that it was really good-looking. The characters in it, feel - real. ”
"Really? Then I'll make up this comic. ”
This news not only made Chinese readers ecstatic, but also readers in District 11 were full of anticipation.
Ordinary readers expressed their understanding of "Chess Soul" on the forum, and there were even Go players, and in the TV program, "Chess Soul" was recommended, and the reason he gave was exactly what readers wanted to see the most.
"Why am I interested in the next story? That's a good question. Yano Nidan touched his nose and said with interest, "Actually, I like more professional manga like "Chess Soul". Readers can see the sadness of each industry from the comics. Next, "Chess Soul" should talk about how Xiaoguang became a professional chess player. This part is obviously different from the previous story, it will involve the professional game of Go in Huaxia, so it will be more difficult to create. But I'm looking forward to Hikaru's performance in the following plot. ”
Yano's second paragraph of the answer made many readers praise it, and Yano said what was in their hearts.
……
Haruka Tamagawa turned to the last page of chapter 44, and there was a feeling in his heart that he was still unfinished.
""Chess Soul" is really amazing, Xiaoguang is really going to attack the professional game of Go." Haruka Tamagawa put his hands behind his head and sighed sincerely.
"Next, it should be difficult to draw, right?" The assistant asked.
"Well, I don't think the difficulty is in the painting skills, with Mr. Shen's painting skills, there won't be much difficulty. The key is still in the expertise of Go. If it's not deep, you can't use the content as a selling point to attract readers. And if it is too deep, the difficulty of creation will increase. Haruka Tamagawa held his cheeks and looked at "Young Leap" on the drawing board.
"Will 'Slam Dunk' involve professional basketball in the future?"
"No, it won't." Tamagawa Haruka sighed, "To draw professional basketball, you need to check a lot of information, such as professional stadiums, team logistics, etc., you need to have professional knowledge, and how the coach arranges tactics will be more professional...... You can't just read two books. There are so many comics for basketball in District 11, but very few of them involve professional basketball, and that's why. ”
The more specialized the content involved in the comics, the more difficult it is to create.
Although Yan Fei asked him to read "Chess Soul", he also knew where his strengths and weaknesses were.
Professional basketball, he doesn't think about it at all.
However...... "Chess Soul" has also gained popularity and popularity in District 11, I don't know if it has changed its ranking in the small book of "Young Leap".
The editors of the editorial department of "Young Leap" are also waiting for the results of the small book.
Due to the recent action of "Chess Soul", unintentionally, Yokoi has become the focus of the editorial department. But Yokoi was very helpless, and Shen Xin would not listen to his suggestions and opinions at all.
For now, he does help too much.
His only role was to contact the 11th District Chess Academy and ask them to provide photos, including the Mystery Room.
This shows that the plot in "Chess Soul" in the future will inevitably involve the 11th District Chess Academy, otherwise, Shen Xin would not need to do more.
"Chess Soul" is now ranked 5th, so after the animation is broadcast, will the ranking of "Chess Soul" rise?
Just when Yokoi was thinking nonsense, Murakami sent an email, which was the latest issue of the small book ranking.
Yokoi hurriedly opened the email, and his eyes quickly swept over the rankings, but he found that "Chess Soul" was still ranked 5th, standing still, and his heart instantly felt a little cold.
"Slam Dunk is No. 3 again? Ishizawa, I have to invite you to dinner today. ”
Hearing this, Yokoi's eyes moved upward, and sure enough, he saw the ranking of "Slam Dunk" - No. 3.
"It's only 3rd place, nothing bad." Ishizawa smiled and scratched his head, "Next, it's just to wait until October, when the animation is screened, I don't know if I can go further." ”
October?
Yokoi then remembered that the animation of "Slam Dunk" was also October, but it was only 13 episodes in one season. As for why only one season is made, the reason is the same as "Chess Soul", the comic content is not enough.
The company that produced the animation of "Slam Dunk" is also very powerful, and is recognized as the top three in District 11. With the blessing of animation, it is not impossible for "Slam Dunk" to hit the first place in October.
Yokoi was worried, his eyes swept over the monitor, and he suddenly noticed that there was something strange about the little book.
Although the ranking of "Chess Soul" has not changed, the difference in votes between it and "Slam Dunk" has become smaller.
Yokoi rubbed his chin, and his eyes lit up.
