A middle school cartoonist

The reason why I thought of doing an exclusive interview with the original staff of "Touhou Fantasyland" is because this comic has been in the spotlight recently!

Since the two-week serialization ended, "Shounen Jumk" has resumed its normal serialization. Although many readers are relieved to see that several popular comics have resumed updates, many readers are also troubled by the fact that "Touhou" has not appeared again!

At first, most readers were resistant to this comic, making it not very palatable. But just two weeks later, due to Makoto Takahashi's deliberate digging of holes, many stories in the comics were not explained clearly. The half-understood and appetizing behavior made readers who wanted to know more began to become anxious!

Of course, it was not only the numerous readers who were tricked by the "Touhou" comics, but also the many editors on the editorial side of "Shounen Jumk"! The "Touhou" comic, which was fully prepared with just two issues, was able to obtain such a high support rate. Therefore, the unprepared editor was unfortunately dragged into the pit this time!

"Will "Touhou" continue to be serialized? I really want to know the story about the gap monster Yakumo Murasaki!"

"Why has it only been serialized for two weeks? Obviously there are still many things that have not been explained clearly! What is your editorial department doing?"

"Will "Shounen Jumk" not serialize "Touhou" again in the future?"

"Deliberately titillating people, this kind of thing is the most annoying thing! Let those cartoonists come out and talk about life with us!"

"..."

Since the serialization of "Touhou" ended, the editor has spent a peaceful week! However, the normal serialization resumed the next week, and the weekly magazine that did not serialize "Oriental" caused some readers who fell into the pit of "Oriental" to spontaneously use the "Telephone Storm" skill to carpet bomb the editor side. ... This kind of office phone ringing non-stop made the editors on the editorial side feel a touch of sadness for a long time, and the level of resentment towards a certain middle school student increased by two levels!

The TV station that had established good cooperation with "Shounen Jumk" originally planned to invite some young cartoonists to do an interview. However, seeing the exaggerated influence of the cartoon "Touhou", and based on the previously released information, it was completed The cartoonist of this comic happened to be one of the younger generation of cartoonists in the current weekly magazine, so he naturally took the opportunity to invite the original staff for an interview!

The TV station can take this opportunity to increase the ratings, and the editors can also take this opportunity to let cartoonists such as Takahashi Makoto explain to many readers the content of the "Touhou" series to divert readers' resentment... ahem, It should divert the reader's attention and interrupt the hellish bombing [Telephone Storm] attack!

Therefore, the two parties quickly established an intention to cooperate and agreed on a time in one month! Just looking at the list sent by the editor, especially the two very familiar names among them, the director of the TV station showed a helpless look!

It’s natural to recognize Eiji Arizuma, a popular manga artist! When I participated in TV programs before, I didn't follow the procedures at all. The off-line answers gave the host a headache, especially the self-centered speech declaring war on other cartoonists. Although the ratings increased, in the end it was still a thorn in the side. A kind of existence! The degree of difficulty is still moderate...

But the mangaka Hohoin Kyuma... is definitely at the level of a hell demon in terms of this level of difficulty!

"Is this your plan?" The director's face was gloomy, and he slammed the plan in his hand on the table. He looked up at the beautiful newcomer in front of him, but in his mind, he recalled that someone was at the recording site of the program before. The arrogant Chuuni's expression was a bit unkind, "Cartoonist Hohoin Koshin... why is this guy on the list?"

"Eh? Isn't that natural?" After stroking her hair from her temples, the beautiful newcomer looked at the director in surprise, "Because according to the former editor-in-chief of "Young Jumk" of Yourong Society, the entire "Eastern" series Although the manga was jointly completed by multiple manga artists, both the plot and the characters were provided by the manga artist Hohoin Kyuma, so..."

"Ahem... I mean, Mina-chan, do you know anything about the mangaka Hoho-in Murama?" Looking at the newcomer named Mina, the director rubbed his temples and sighed helplessly, "Since you proposed this Planning, then I must have a certain understanding of the basic information of these cartoonists! Then those rumors about the murderous nature of the cartoonist Phoenix Institute..."

"Phoenixin Kumadai is a talented cartoonist!" When Mina heard the editor mention this, her eyes showed admiration, and she immediately took over the topic, "My favorite manga is that Hohoin Kuma-sensei is currently serializing. "InuYasha"!

"Uh... that's not what I want to ask, but..." Looking at Mina's gleaming eyes, the director suddenly had an ominous premonition. However, before he could finish speaking, Mina was caught in a frenzy mode. The ground was interrupted!

"The earliest serialized comic of Phoenix Academy was "DN". Although "Shounen Jumk" did not announce the age of Phoenix Academy at that time, as Phoenix Academy's fierce popularity grew, many people discovered the idea of ​​drawing "DN" At that time, the Phoenix Academy president was actually still a junior high school student! And in the subsequent comics..." Mentioning the Phoenix Academy murderous situation, Mina seemed to have switched to another personality and started to tell the story, while the director wanted to speak several times. , but it is a sad discovery that I can’t find a suitable place to interrupt!

Mina, who is so dear to everyone, seems to have put a lot of effort into investigating the matter related to the Phoenix Academy murder case... If it were normal times, the director would definitely praise Mina for her serious work, etc., but when it comes to the Phoenix Academy murder case, The cartoonist and station director had no such thoughts at all. Instead, he looked at the newcomer Mina with confusion. Since he knew so much about the cartoonist Phoenix Institute Kuma, he must have heard some rumors!

"Well, what I want to say is that the cartoonist of Phoenix Institute Murama has collaborated with us once before!" While Mina was drinking water, the station manager finally found a chance to change the topic and immediately started Telling some of the past to Mina, but when talking about this, the station director looked a little embarrassed, "You must have watched the interview show about the murderous people in the Phoenix Institute before, right?"

"Hey! Is there such a thing?" Mina looked at the director in surprise, with an unexpected look on her face, and then a joyful smile on her face, "Director, if that's the case...can we do this this time? Can’t you let me host it?”

With his fingers tapping on the table, the director fell into a sluggish thinking mode! Although it is not in compliance with the regulations to let Mina, who is responsible for planning, be the host of the show, but...since Mina knows so much about the murderous nature of the Phoenix Academy, she will not be bullied badly! Moreover, Mina, a newcomer, has excellent abilities in all aspects. In terms of appearance, she is not inferior to the TV host...

"Hmm..." Although I really wanted to agree to Minai's request, the director always felt a little uneasy! But when he thought of his previous murder by the Phoenix Academy and his strong performance at the show recording site, the director had no choice but to make a choice, "In that case, I'll leave it to you!"

"Thank you, director!" Mina showed a joyful smile on her face and looked up at the director confidently, "I will definitely do my best to make this program reach a new high in ratings!"

"Haha, then I'll wait and see!" The feeling of uneasiness in his heart became more and more intense, and the station director comforted himself by reminding Mina, "By the way, you'd better communicate with the cartoonists first. After all, cartoonists' daily work is still quite complicated. There are so many comics that we can read in ten minutes, but it takes dozens of hours for them to finish... So booking a trip in advance is not only polite, but also good for program schedules. Very necessary!”

"Well, I understand! Thank you, Director!" After turning around and going out, Mina immediately cheered, "Yeah! It's great, I can finally meet the Phoenix Academy's fierce master! When I decided to work here, it turned out to be the best place in my life. The wisest choice..."

Listening to Mina's cheering voice outside the door, the director shook his head silently, with a bitter smile on his face...

Blowing hair and breaking hair is often used to describe the sharpness of a sword! Although it is a bit exaggerated, the real sword in Takahashi Makoto's hand is indeed sharper, because after peeling the apple, Takahashi Makoto put the apple peel on the blade of the sword, blew on it, and the apple peel was broken into two pieces, free. The falling motion begins...

"It is indeed a magic sword from the border of the universe. The name of Broken Star is indeed as rumored..." He waved the sword in his hand gently and ignored the sound of the wind. Makoto Takahashi stared at the long sword in his hand, " I wonder if the soul can be cut open when cutting open the human body? Now, Mr. Chen Ben, let’s continue the previous topic!”

"Haha... This comic is really exciting, although it only lasts two issues..." Chen Ben, who has been in contact with Takahashi Makoto several times and has a deep understanding of Takahashi Makoto, completely ignored Takahashi Makoto. All kinds of weird behaviors, with an expression of 'everything is under control' on his face, "If the news that "Touhou" is about to be animated is released at this time, it will definitely make the popularity of this comic rise again!"

"Oh, it seems that you are not just simple characters!" The tip of the sword pointed at Chen Ben, and a strange smile appeared on Makoto Takahashi's face, "Before this, Mr. Chen Ben, did you forget to say something? "

"About the [future duel plan] you proposed before...is that right?" Not frightened by Takahashi Makoto's unusual behavior, the smile on Chen Ben's face suddenly solidified, and he rubbed his eyes with some nostalgia, his tone was Some of them are self-deprecating, "Just after reading the script, I couldn't help it... It's such an unexpected work! Although the board of directors has always felt that the market cannot be judged without the finished comics, but this was before reading the script. It's just an attitude... But I'm sorry, Mr. Takahashi Makoto, because there was some delay before, Taigasha plans to produce that animation only after "Steel" is completed!"

"Hey! After discussing it for such a long time, it really doesn't work in the end?" Although he had already known that this would be the result, Takahashi Makoto couldn't help but complain, "But this is fine, let's look at the situation sweeping the Three Realms. War, who is the winner? The plot of killing each other is the most loving. Although I didn’t have the chance to see it in my previous life, in this world... I am looking forward to it!”

"So about the "Touhou" animation..." Taking advantage of Makoto Takahashi's good mood, Chen Ben showed a fox-like smile and asked tentatively!

"About this..." I originally wanted to refuse, but thinking of the TV show Yoshida mentioned before, Takahashi Makoto showed a playful smile on his face, "Hey, Mr. Chen Ben, are you interested in participating in a sacrificial event?"

"Is it an interview with the original creator of the "Touhou" manga?" Chen Ben's intelligence work is still extremely sharp, otherwise he would not have come directly to discuss the copyright of the "Touhou" animation with Makoto Takahashi! "Although Mr. Makoto Takahashi, you completed this manga with other cartoonists as Hououin Kyoma, but the real original creator of this manga should be you! But I can do some free publicity..."

"Tsk! Squinting dead fox!" After sending Chen Ben away with a smile, Makoto Takahashi immediately changed to a gloomy expression, "It's really troublesome! But it's good this way... Since the chess piece of [Knight] has been obtained, then the next thing to wait for... is the key chess piece called [Queen]!"

Just a simple complaint, a cat personally feels that the existence of the Touhou series is not enough just for the existence of comics! Touhou without music is not a good Touhou! We do like Touhou because of the character setting, but without music, it always feels a little incomplete. What do you think?
