A middle school cartoonist

The second chapter of the comic "One Punch Man" does not tell an overly complicated plot. It just describes the story of a certain bald man when he was young and had handsome hair!

Just when the crab monster wanted to kill the child, the male protagonist, who originally had no intention of saving the child, suddenly changed his mind and stepped forward to save the child! At that time, there was no "bald man" male protagonist, he was just an ordinary person. When facing the crab monster who had killed many people, it was natural for him to be beaten in various ways!

In the process of being beaten away by the crab monster again and again, the male protagonist did not give up. Although the injuries all over his body were serious, the male protagonist still stood in front of the frustrated-looking naughty kid with no intention of giving up...

"That's right, I have always dreamed of becoming a hero since I was a child..." On the contrary, in the process of being beaten by the crab weirdo in various ways, the male protagonist was no longer confused!

"I'm not an office worker...but a hero who can defeat you scum with just one punch!" The male protagonist was knocked away and dripping with blood. Just by observing the comics, one could guess the ferocity of the crab monster's blow. !

"I'm not looking for a job anymore! Come on over here, you bastard!" Ignoring the blood streaming from his head, the actor pulled off his tie and sternly declared a duel to the crab weirdo!

There is no need to describe the following plot in detail. After issuing a [declaration of victory] that only the protagonist can use, the crab weirdo who has been beating the male protagonist in a fancy way in the comic has his exposed eyes tied by the male protagonist. He was trapped and violently killed by the male protagonist who was just an ordinary person!

Thinking of it, three years have passed since then...

I trained with the momentum of "braving my hair", and finally gained nearly invincible combat power, and I should have become my ideal hero...

But why? Why am I not satisfied yet?

At the end of the second chapter of the comic "One Punch Man", there is a monologue from the male protagonist who switches back to bald mode! The picture that goes with this monologue is the back view of a bald man wearing a hero costume, carrying a large bag of daily necessities, visually inspecting the supermarket purchase!

Although Yoshida is a little concerned about the monologue at the end, even though Yoshida now wants to share with Takahashi Makoto the problems he has discovered before, even though Yoshida now wants to ask Takahashi Makoto to confirm something...

But after carefully observing the second chapter of the comic "One Punch Man" this time, Yoshida still did not see the name of the male protagonist in the comic! In the content of this episode, from beginning to end, the name of the bald male protagonist was not mentioned at all!

"My Familiar Cat, have you finished reading the manga?" Makoto Takahashi saw Yoshida put down the weekly "Shounen Jumk" in his hand, and stared at Yoshida expectantly, with a vague expression on his face. Smiling, "So now...you can answer the questions I asked before!"

"Now, I mean Acheng..." Yoshida frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he asked with some uncertainty, "Before I answer your question, I need to confirm one other thing first... Are you sure? Is the name of the bald male protagonist really revealed in this serialization?”

"Hey! Have you been discovered?" Makoto Takahashi, who knew clearly that "covering up is a hint", naturally would not add superfluous words such as "I don't know what you are talking about" and "I don't understand what you are talking about." ] to cover it up... As an honest cartoonist, Makoto Takahashi frankly admitted the 'truth' observed by Yoshida! "After eliminating all impossible choices, the only option left... is of course the so-called [truth]!"

But for Yoshida, the candid and cooperative attitude of a certain middle-class cartoonist definitely added fuel to the fire!

"Tsk, that's true! Let me tell you, after reading it carefully three times, why didn't I find the name of the male protagonist? It turns out that Cheng, you didn't reveal it in the comic at all!" Yoshida's face at this moment His expression has been completely distorted... Because until this moment, Yoshida finally determined that the reason why Takahashi Makoto raised the question "What is the name of the male protagonist" was because he had the mentality of teasing him from the beginning. How to be tricked and killed!

After all, being teased is a rather unpleasant thing...

"Huh? Are you kidding me? It's obviously because you didn't read the comics carefully enough..." As a teaser, Takahashi Makoto said that he was quite happy at the moment... Of course , in order to restrain a responsible editor from going berserk at the critical moment, [talking] must be used! "Obviously it is the mistake that I have made, but I always have to blame it on others; it is obvious that my failure is due to my lack of experience, but I have to attribute the blame to [the process that others committed when they were young]... Oh my, human beings This kind of creature is really hopeless!"

Question: What’s more unpleasant than being teased?

The answer is of course someone like Yoshida. After being righteously reprimanded for various reasons before, he fell into deep guilt and self-blame. But the next second he discovered that the person he had just occupied【 The guy who lectures people with great righteousness is actually the villain who leads all the shady plots... This strong contrast from [good guy] to [demon] is what makes people even more uncomfortable!

"I'm talking about Cheng... you guy... you guy..." Yoshida gritted his teeth and stared at Takahashi Makoto. If eyes could kill, Yoshida would definitely kill a certain middle-class cartoonist a thousand times!

"Oh? Do you want to confront me head-on?" Makoto Takahashi seemed to enjoy the pleasure brought by Yoshida's expression at this moment, and slowly pulled out the magic sword on the table without caring, "Okay! It's just my familiar cat Oh, if you want to kill someone, you will be killed...have you already realized this?"

"..." Yoshida's sudden silence at this moment not only means a helpless compromise, but also means that a certain editor has gradually calmed down! After taking a deep breath, Yoshida tried his best to use a calm tone and tried to resume communication with a certain middle-class cartoonist! "Cheng, you should have read the second episode of "My Hero Academia" by Eiji Arizuma in this weekly issue, right? I was just re-watching "One Punch Man" and suddenly discovered something Interesting things…”

"Tsk, I thought you would lose your mind and come to me, my cat! Ah, that's a bit boring!" Watching Yoshida calm down gradually, and began to talk about comics-related matters as the editor-in-chief, After Makoto Takahashi complained with some disappointment, he also entered the cartoonist mode, "Huh? Interesting thing? My favorite cat, are you talking about Sai... ahem, are you thinking? Let’s talk about the plot where the hero saves the naughty kid?”

"Sure enough, Cheng, you have noticed it too!" Yoshida, who did not notice that Takahashi Makoto almost revealed the name of the male protagonist, continued to talk about his new discoveries while observing comics, "Although in terms of subject matter and type , the comic "One Punch Man" and the comic "My Hero Academia", as comics serialized in weekly magazines during the same period, should be regarded as each other's most threatening competitors, however..."

Just as Yoshida was explaining his new findings to Makoto Takahashi, Eiji, the new wife who was observing this issue of the magazine, was also communicating with his editor-in-chief Yujiro...

Is this the great will of the universe, or... the choice of Steins;Gate?

"Should I say that I am worthy of being a Phoenix-in teacher?" Eiji Niizuma put down the manga magazine in his hand and suppressed the smile that often appeared on his face in the past. "Sure enough, the original decision to serialize the manga "My Hero Academia" is quite interesting. Quite the right choice!”

"Eh? Niizuma-kun, why did you say that?" As the editor-in-chief of the weekly, in addition to the new serial "My Hero Academia" by Eiji Niizuma that he is responsible for, Yujiro also carefully observes the weekly articles Among the other comics serialized, I naturally have a certain understanding of Makoto Takahashi's "One Punch Man"! "Regardless of the subject matter or the type of comics, the new serialization of "One Punch Man" by Mr. Phoenix Institute can be regarded as the most threatening to your "My Hero Academia" based on the current situation. Opponent! And in the last reader survey ranking, if it weren’t for the fact that your two comics were mutually exclusive, you might have been able to get the first place..."

"Ah, Yuujiro-san is indeed an idiot!" Unlike Makoto Takahashi's attitude towards Yoshida, Eiji Niizuma only occasionally complained and ridiculed Yujiro! "The ranking in the reader survey, or even the scores of the comics, are not important to me! But... having an opponent like the Phoenix Academy teacher, and having an enemy like the comic "One Punch Man" is more important and more important to me. Interesting things to say!”

"Huh?" Although Yuujiro didn't react at the first time, seeing the high-spirited look of his new wife Eiji, he instantly understood what the cartoonist under his command was thinking! Yujiro had a helpless smile on his face, looked at the weekly magazine in his hand, and asked Niizuma Eiji with some doubts, "Nizuma-kun, if I understand correctly, you mean... two chapters have been serialized and there is still no content. The name of the protagonist of "One Punch Man" has been revealed, and as the author of this comic, Mr. Kouma from the Phoenix Academy, is he an opponent you are looking forward to? "

"Of course! As a companion or ally, use the name [Shinkai Makoto] to carry out this serialization in the monthly magazine, and then as an opponent or powerful rival, carry out a new serialization duel and contest in the weekly magazine... "The fire of fighting spirit seemed to burn in Niizuma Eiji's eyes, "There is nothing more interesting to say than this!"

"Honestly, I don't quite understand what you think..." Yujiro shook his head helplessly, "But Shinzuma-kun, as long as you feel happy!"

"Oh, Yuujiro-san is quite reasonable at this time!" Eiji Niizuma held the weekly magazine tightly with an expectant smile on his face, "Sure enough... drawing comics is the most interesting thing!"
