Chapter 961: Cover
After the release of "Immortal Road", the plot of "SLAM DUNK" was a little tense.
Xiandao broke through the defense of Liu Chuanfeng and Hanamichi, faced Mu Gangxian, who came to make up for the defense, and passed to the follow-up Yuzhu.
Yuzhu made a slam dunk to stretch the difference to 6 points, but when he turned around, Mu Gangxian scored another 2 points.
There was a minute left in the clock, there were four points left between the two teams, and the ball was in the hands of Xiandao.
If Xiandao throws the ball in, then the game is over, on the contrary, if the Lingnan team does not score in this round, Xiangbei will still have a chance to turn defeat into victory.
However, the comic came to an abrupt end here.
Readers, of course, were not satisfied with the results, and "verbally criticized the dogs" on the Internet, scolding the "broken dogs", and the letters from readers, like snowflakes, were sent to the editorial offices of Comic Future and Shonen Leap.
"Comic Future" forwarded these emails to Wang Wenhong, and after getting Shen Xin's permission, Wang Wenhong opened the emails, left the useful ones, and sorted out the useless ones for preservation.
The editorial office of "Young Leap" is in District 11, and there are too many of these letters to be mailed to Shen Xin.
Although most of these letters complained about Shen Xin, Murakami was in a good mood.
The large number of letters from readers proves that SLAM DUNK has been accepted by readers, and on the other hand, SLAM DUNK's small book ranking in Shonen Leap is also a testament to this, and after the previous episode, SLAM DUNK has already ranked second.
Although the small book of "Immortal Dao" is also in second place, the gap with "The Gate of Eternal Life" is only thirty votes - now, "The Gate of Eternal Life" has also reached the most exciting part, the protagonist is revealing whether the person who passes through the "Gate of Eternal Life" will be infected with the plague, and at the same time, a battle between the protagonist and an "Eternal" has also begun, and the plot is also exciting.
After the end of "Wasteland Hunter", Murakami has been looking for a manga that can compete with "The Gate of Eternal Life".
It's not that he rejects "The Gate of Eternal Life", but that two high-quality comics can create the double insurance of "Shonen Leap", and the long-term decline of "Shonen Leap" will have the possibility of slowing down or even stopping.
"The Gate of Eternal Life", as the hottest work in District 11, actually no longer needs "Young Leap" to deliberately attract traffic, whether it is a game company or a toy manufacturer, they will promote "The Gate of Eternal Life", and animation plays a greater role.
SLAM DUNK WILL BE THE UNDERDOG IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD.
But the point of the small book is that it is the reader's feedback on the latest words, as long as the content is exciting enough, "SLAM DUNK" is not impossible to get the first place, and now, the sales of the fourth volume of "SLAM DUNK" has approached 700,000 copies, which has surpassed the performance of "Wasteland Hunter" when it was first serialized.
In the editorial office of "Shonen Leap", the most nervous person is none other than Chimei Kotani.
He has read a lot of basketball comics, but he never expected that a training game in "SLAM DUNK" would stir up the atmosphere of the game to such an extent.
Now in every word, you can find the highlight of the story.
He has been in this circle for decades, and in recent years, there have been few such wonderful comics.
Wang Wenhong has already handed over "SLAM&nbe to him in advance", and he is still prepared for the victory or defeat of the normal game, but such a comic, unless you see the original manuscript, it is difficult to appreciate the charm of the comic.
While he was thinking wildly, an email popped up in the lower right corner of the screen - the original manuscript of Episode 47, "Calling for the Victorious".
"It's here! The original manuscript of episode 47 of "SLAM DUNK" has been sent! Kotani China couldn't help but shout.
"Send it to me...... No, print it out. Toru Murakami immediately stood up and said to China Kotani.
The eyes of the other editors also involuntarily looked at China Kotani, watching him print out two copies of the original manuscript, and there was a sour feeling in his heart.
Murakami took the latest manuscript and couldn't wait to flip back, the storyboard was smooth, the story was gripping, and until the last page, there was still a feeling of unfinished business, gains and losses.
This sentence is of high quality and in line with reality, and if he is a reader, he will definitely look forward to the content of the next episode, but its opponent is "The Gate of Eternal Life", can it really steal the first place from the hands of "SLAM DUNK"?
It's a big question mark, at least he's not sure.
SLAM DUNK vs Eternal Gate......
This showdown is really exciting.
Murakami had read Shen Xin's latest words early on, but readers could only see the content before the three words.
After the screening of the episode "Xiandao", readers are looking forward to whether Xiandao, who holds the ball in hand, can lock in the victory, and this answer will only have results in the next episode.
Chapter 45 "Unbelievable" was serialized in the 13th issue of the magazine.
As soon as the magazine was released, some readers discussed it in the forum, which immediately aroused reports and refutations from other netizens.
"No spoilers!"
"That's right, what are you talking about? How could you start talking about comics on Monday morning? ”
"No matter how bad it is, it's going to be tomorrow, I'm in class right now, and I don't have time to buy comics!"
"Stop, wait, wait until Wednesday to talk about it, okay? Please"
As a result, on Monday, few people discussed "SLAM DUNK" on the forum, but after reading it, many readers felt uncomfortable without saying a word, so they expressed their opinions in their own small circle, readership, Weibo, and Twitter.
"Xiandao passed the spread of Liu Chuanfeng and Ikebana, I was really handsome, I didn't expect Xiandao to be so powerful!"
"Immortal Dao is really worthy of being the core of Lingnan, and in the face of Liu Chuanfeng and Mu Gangxian's blockade, he is calm."
"There's a P? No, Ikebana gave a big hat from behind! ”
"That page spread is super exciting, Xiandao has already thrown the ball, but as a result, it was fanned by Ikebana from behind, this cover of Ikebana is too enjoyable to watch."
"It's a lifesaver! No one could have imagined that a flower arrangement, who had only been in contact with basketball for a few months, would become the one who saved the team. ”
"Not only that, Hanamichi, who grabbed the basketball, passed the ball to Liu Chuanfeng by chance, and it is estimated that he will be angry."
"Liu Chuanfeng scored a three-pointer! There is only one point left in the score of the two teams! ”
"The basketball cartoon saw the feeling of Mi professional basketball, did it blow up?"
"With one point left, who will win?"
"Nervous, so nervous!"
"I hope that next week will come soon, and I will only update one word a week, isn't this embarrassing for me?"
"Now we have to wait a little longer."
……
INITIALLY, THESE DISCUSSIONS WERE ONLY IN SMALL CIRCLES, BUT BY TUESDAY, THE FORUM COULD NO LONGER BE CONTROLLED, AND THE POSTS DISCUSSING "SLAM DUNK" WERE ENDLESS, AND SOME PEOPLE EVEN FOUND IKEBANA FROM THE STORYBOARD BEHIND THE FAIRY ROAD, SWEARING THAT SUCH A BLOCK, EVEN IN MIL BASKETBALL, IS A CLASSIC, NOT TO MENTION, THIS BLOCK MAY EVEN DETERMINE THE DIRECTION OF THE GAME.
