Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?

The benefits of popular female characters are always a killer.

Oda Shingo began to prepare for the single volume.

The specially designed large-format sister bowl feature page is planned to be printed in full color.

Even one page is not enough, and a insert poster is also provided.

Although Oda Shingo looked down on Gouda Takeshi's bear-dollar offensive, it does not mean that the blue and white bowl is completely outdated. The key is to see whether this blue and white bowl is stuffed with rice or really delicious.

I believe that readers will see such a single volume and turn out the sincere inserts and inserts, and they will definitely exclaim: It smells so good, hey, it smells so good!

At the same time, in order to strengthen the benefits of the single volume, Oda Shingo has also made further efforts in the online serialization.

Tornado and Fubuki both have a lot of close-up space, which is used on the cover of each episode.

This makes up for the problem of skipping chapters in the original Fubuki plot, and appropriately controls the amount, not too much but not too little, which can be said to be just the right level of benefits.

"Teacher Oda, you must have had many girlfriends in college. Otherwise, how could you know so much about how girls dress?" Fujido Kacheng looked at the latest comics and said with a hint of sourness.

She thought Fubuki's figure was too foul, with her upper body and Namikaze Yukaku's lower body.

"This is the voice of the majority of comic fans, and it has a projection in my creative inspiration." Oda Shingo looked serious.

Fujido Kacheng expressed contempt: "Tsk, men's hobbies are all like this, and they are said so artistically."

Gouda Takeshi's heroine Ru Uinako's figure and appearance, you can tell at a glance that she needs krypton gold.

But Tornado and Fubuki's figures and dress are completely different, you can tell at a glance that you need krypton life.

It feels like it's not the same era. Ru Uinako seems to be always found in reality, but even if you meet this pair of sisters in reality, I'm afraid you won't be lucky enough to enjoy it.

On the website of Qun Yingshe, there is no suspense in the voting for the best female character.

Tornado is at the top with an absolute number of votes, nearly 30% more than the second place Fubuki, and she has completely secured the throne of the first female character.

Especially in the voting interface, she held her chest like a plane landing smoothly, and her arrogant look with her little mouth pouting, which was captured by countless people.

This is even more true in the "One Punch Man" community. Fans have provided various fan art. Although the quality is not high, their love for the character is obvious.

The most popular one at present is a Tornado cosplayer: Yuzu is a giant.

A cosplay page with more than 150,000 likes is just her most standard Tornado look.

Slender waist, slender figure, bright green hair, big eyes.

More importantly, this cosplayer is not only similar in appearance, but also too similar!

Arrogance, domineering, delicate, noble, all gathered in her.

Even if Oda Shingo saw it, he would have to say that this is the reincarnation of Tornado, right?

It’s just that the name of this female cosplayer is [Yuzu is a giant], which is very strange, and I don’t know where the inspiration came from. But at least the photo shows her thoughts: I am a little short, but I am a giant in your eyes!

Whether it is a giant or not depends on psychology. But whether it is a giant bear depends on physiology. According to some Tornado fans, everyone knows it in their hearts: small, but also very cute (*▽*)...

The slightly more exciting ones, such as the cosplay pictures with hurricane special effects, are put in the fan area.

Only comic fans who have subscribed to the VIP paid version can see the most complete cosplay photos.

This is also what Oda Shingo discussed with Yuzu before.

[Ah! I want to see her cosplay! I have always been a whitewasher, but I also want to subscribe! ]

[To support Tornado goddess, I also subscribed! ]

So, just this fan value requirement for viewing cosplay photos, I don’t know how many thousands of subscriptions have been contributed to the website.

There are two topics with relatively high discussion in the community.

One topic is: Author Oda Shingo was nominated for the Best Newcomer Award! Hopefully he will win the Best Newcomer of the Year!

This topic is full of congratulations from comic fans, but no one is looking forward to it, because most of them are very objective and say: With Kousuke Watsuki here, let's just go to bed...

Anyway, Kousuke Watsuki's reputation is based on the official publication "Jump", which is a generally recognized newcomer status. Moreover, his comics are indeed very popular, and have occupied the top three positions in the popularity ranking of "Jump" many times.

Another topic is that the "One Punch Man" single volume is about to be released!

"This must be the news deliberately released by Springfield Bookstore, right?" Oda Shingo knew it was them when he saw the posting time.

It is understandable that the single volume is warmed up before the release.

Some people even swore that there would be insert posters in the first edition.

Even though it is already 2024, it is still a minority of comic books to send insert color page posters.

The main reason: cost.

Japanese comics have always been based on paper cost as the primary consideration. After all, it originated from cheap pamphlets.

The historical lesson is too serious. "Magazine SPECIAL" was famous for its color pages when it was first published, but it flopped the fastest. "YOUNG ANIMAL" also died after its dying color pages.

Looking at how thick the black and white books of "Jump", "Magazine" and "Sunday" are, we can infer that the principle of the comics company's regular publication is to have a large quantity and a low price.

If the print run is less than 50,000 copies, then don't even consider color pages. If the print run is more than 100,000 copies, there will be horizontal color strips or inner color pages.

Only when the print run is more than 300,000 copies can you talk about insert pages.

[Wow! Web comics can be published in single volumes? This is the first time I've heard of this. ]

[One Punch Man will have a single volume? Looking forward to it! I want to be able to hold Tornado in my hands and enjoy it! ]

[Highly anticipated! I want color pages! I want posters! I want to see colorful Tornado and Fubuki! ]

Readers began to get excited.

An online survey was sent out: Will you buy a single volume of One Punch Man?

41% of people said yes, 23% said no, and the rest were neutral.

Oda Shingo asked Assistant Okita, and the 41% desire to buy was much higher than the expectation for a single volume of an ordinary comic.

Oda Shingo looked at the forum carefully, and then went to the manga forum of his opponent and Tsuki Kosuke.

The forum of "Goddess Sword" is almost all about the discussion of the plot, and it seems a bit calm about the upcoming publication of the single volume.

After all, Kazuki Kosuke is a popular newcomer promoted by Qun Ying Sha, and his comics are also very popular, so it is normal for him to publish a single volume.

Oda Shingo carefully read the forum comments, and then found a feature different from his own forum: readers are discussing the plot, expressing their opinions on who is stronger, and rarely have a special interest in the characters.

This is a breakthrough point!

Oda Shingo is more convinced that his focus is correct.

At this time, Oda Shingo suddenly saw a tweet at the top of the forum of "Goddess Sword", which was a public announcement of the content of Kazuki Kosuke's tweet.

[Oda Shingo? Nominated for the Newcomer Award with me? I don't know him! Ah, at least his fame and works are not worthy of my recognition! Hahaha! ]

Most of the thousands of fans who left messages behind also responded with a hahaha laugh.

Oda Shingo also laughed.

Okay, I’ll let you get to know me this time.
