A middle school cartoonist

When Takahashi Makoto returned home, he did not start drawing comics immediately. Instead, he looked at his still immature face in the mirror and suddenly felt an inexplicable emotion in his heart!

Men should be strong! Who said this?

Suddenly, for no apparent reason, he came to a strange world. Facing a similar but completely different life, Takahashi Makoto is not some arrogant existence. After a sigh in his heart, he can transform into a bulldozer and expand the Crystal Palace or something! Worry, uneasiness, fear, these emotions can't be gotten rid of at all. Pretend to be a second-year disease! Even if it is considered a second-year disease with abnormal behavior, it is better than being sliced ​​and studied, right?

In his previous life, Takahashi Makoto was worn away by society. He wanted to break free but could only struggle helplessly! After crossing, Takahashi Makoto just wanted to live happily and live heartlessly! There is no long-cherished wish to unify the world, no ideal to save the world, and no consciousness to become a messenger of justice! Takahashi Makoto knows very well that he is just an ordinary little person. Thinking about things beyond his ability is simply asking for trouble!

But in reality, there are often people who say, "As an adult, you should think like an adult," "You are an adult now, you shouldn't act like a child," and so on. Is this kind of will and awareness imposed on others really what you, who think you are sensible and mature, expect?

Are you sure it is what you expect, not your... pure envy and jealousy of the past?

The protagonist of "Yu-Gi-Oh! GX", Yuki Judai, can be said to be the most typical example!

When Judai first entered the academy, he won and lost in duels, but he always enjoyed the joy brought by duels and was immersed in that joy!

"Won!" Judai waved his hand, and a pure smile appeared on his face, without any impurities, "What an interesting duel!"

Looking at Judai like that, although sometimes I want to complain that this protagonist is completely heartless... But as a viewer, looking at Judai's joyful smile, the envy from the bottom of my heart is really hard to describe!

Sometimes, Judai has fallen into a disadvantageous situation where he is bound to lose, but he still enjoys the duel and the joy brought by the duel! Let’s not talk about the protagonist’s halo and other unfounded things... Judai really loves duels! Perhaps it is because Judai loves duels from the bottom of his heart and enjoys the fun brought by duels, so he succeeded in the last moment several times, right?

But this is only in the early stage!

In the later period, Judai began to grow up. The teacher, Professor Cobra, and the partners who lived with him day and night began to look forward to Judai’s maturity, hoping that Judai could get rid of the childish and naive period and become a real reliable adult!

After repeated trials, just as everyone expected, Judai matured, Judai grew up, Judai took on the due sense of responsibility, and even became a hero who saved the world! But as an audience, will you feel heartbroken when you see Judai becoming more and more sensible? The Judai who loved and enjoyed the fun of duels in the past is gone! The signature move that always appears regardless of winning or losing is gone. Judai has grown up, but has become unfamiliar!

Sacrificing carefree innocence and romance in exchange for heavy enlightenment and maturity, is this the price of growth? If so, then this existence called life is too cruel!

"Although I still feel uneasy now, but oh..." Takahashi Makoto looked at his smiling face in the mirror and raised his clenched fist vigorously, "I really like this kind of life!"

"Just like the clowns in the circus, even if they are sad inside, they still dress up funny! Maybe it's to please the audience, or maybe it's to hide the sadness in their hearts... But that outfit is like a mask, it has been deeply rooted in people's hearts! The mask of Chuunibyou, now that it's been put on, wear it forever! As long as you can live happily, then everything doesn't matter!"

"Speaking of the great devil Ogata is really disgusting!" The tone and eyes of the great devil Ogata when he spoke appeared again in Takahashi Makoto's mind, "What living in a world of delusion, what indulging in an illusory world... That look when he was preaching... adults are really the most annoying thing! "

"Mature? Sensible?" Takahashi Makoto looked at himself in the mirror and began to give himself the self-suggestion called "Chuuni no Confidence". "These things, in my long life, there is plenty of time to think about them! Now I am Takahashi Makoto, Fenghuangyuan Kyouma, a time traveler with a golden finger, a person who created the world and destroyed the world, a crazy big devil!"

"What does abnormal behavior have to do with it? What if I'm addicted to the fantasy world? What if I have Chuunibyou?" Takahashi Makoto became more and more excited, "I'm not the one who caused all this! I'm just a passive recipient! Heaven and earth, truth, dare you answer my question? Since I can't choose the world I want to live in, can't I decide how I want to live by myself?"

"Saying 'not worthy of the princess'... I know this kind of thing very well! But Ogata Demon King, I have been working hard! If a manga artist wants to be successful, he is not like an idol singer Just as convenient and fast! Although the comics that people see are not my ideas, they are things I drew with my heart one stroke at a time!”

"So I... didn't do anything wrong!" Makoto Takahashi picked up the phone and pressed a certain number, his eyes extremely firm! "It was the Great Demon King Ogata who was wrong!"

"Kid, have you thought clearly?" The waiting time was not long, and the speed with which Demon King Ogata answered the phone was quite impressive!

"Yeah, think about it clearly..." Makoto Takahashi walked to the balcony and looked at the night gradually lit up by neon lights, "Ogata Demon King, as expected, I still hate you very much!"

"..." The Great Demon King Ogata fell silent. He seemed to be depressed by Takahashi Makoto's words. After a long time, he replied in a cold tone, "I, who wholeheartedly expected you to change, really committed an incompetent crime. What a mistake to make up for!”

"I am a cartoonist, not even a world-class cartoonist!" Makoto Takahashi spoke in a serious tone, which made Demon King Ogata, who wanted to say something, listen quietly, " After I came to this world and achieved a little success, I started to feel complacent and even forgot the most important thing! Huh...huh..."

Makoto Takahashi started to take a deep breath, and then completely exploded!

"Great Demon King Ogata, what is success? What is strong?" Makoto Takahashi completely burned the small universe, and at this moment entered the stage of explosion, "As you expected, there will be joy and anger. All the conspiracies are calculated behind the glasses that can reflect the death light. Maybe it is what you call the "adult world". But what's the point of that kind of life? Is that kind of life really happy? You have lost your so-called enthusiasm and your once innocent and noble soul!"

"Great Demon King Ogata, I was also an adult in my previous life, even a little older than you!" Makoto Takahashi adjusted his breathing, not intending to give Great Demon King Ogata a chance to interrupt, and continued to speak. He said, "Maybe other brats of this age cannot fully understand what you are talking about! But... don't underestimate me, Makoto Takahashi! There is someone who is almost thirty years old inside me. Soul!"

"The so-called strong man, the so-called success does not mean achieving excellent results in a certain aspect!" Makoto Takahashi clutched the phone tightly, his voice began to become a little deeper, "Such a scenery may look very... Dazzling! But, that’s not true strength, it’s not true success!”

"For so-called adults, especially men, it seems that crying and weakness are not allowed? Why can't we be weak? Why can't we cry? Maybe in your adult world, crying and weakness symbolize cowardice , Incompetent, destined to become a loser and a weak person!" Makoto Takahashi unlocked the fourth level of the gene lock, "But in my eyes, those who dare not face their own weakness still pretend to be strong when they are sad! People who smile are the real weak and the real losers!”

"I will be confused and I will feel uneasy, but even so, I will move forward without hesitation! If it is because I am afraid of the dark and the unknown enemy ahead, I keep my head down and say nothing, and dare not move forward... I don’t know what others think of me! But I know that I am the real weak and the real loser if I stay where I am and dare not move forward!”

"Ogata Demon King, maybe in your eyes, I am still the kid who immediately thinks of escaping when faced with difficulties, right? But you are wrong!"

"The so-called man is to become strong for someone or a certain belief! Grit your teeth and stick to what you want to protect in your heart! Try your best to make a scene happily ! It doesn’t matter if you fall and fall behind, it doesn’t matter if you fail and cry! If you fall and fall behind, stand up again and catch up with all your strength. As long as you do it and laugh again! "

"Since I am already lagging behind Her Highness the Princess, I can just catch up!" Makoto Takahashi yelled into the phone, "Perhaps the King of Heroes is not worthy of Her Highness the Princess, so it will be good if I become the Demon King. Ah! The most terrifying princess in the world must have the most terrifying and evil devil beside her!"

"You're still the same ignorant brat!" Ogata's evaluation was as cold and vicious as ever, "Is that because you haven't broken free from the delusional fantasy world?"

"So what if you break free?" Makoto Takahashi became angry when he heard what the Great Demon King Ogata said, "Are you going to become an adult like you? That kind of life without enthusiasm, without ideals, and being exhausted, that kind of life What you call the 'adult world', I, Makoto Takahashi, would rather stay in the second grade for the rest of my life than mature and grow up!"

"Really? Then I'll wait and see how many times you have to hit the wall before you can truly understand!"

"Ogata, the Great Demon King, just watch! If you say that cartoonists are not worthy of the princess..." Takahashi Makoto declared loudly with almost all his strength, "Then I will become the Demon King! The day I become the Great Demon King who dominates the comics world, that's when I will take Rina away! Princess, I, the Great Demon King Hououin Kyouma, will protect you!"
