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

Chapter 145 My body... This is Parasyte

The old editor was very excited.

If this new guy was under his command, he would probably jump for joy.

But this guy happened to be from the web department, which was in direct competition with the main department and even had a bet with him!

In addition, the main department is now in the basement, largely because of him!

The old editor was a little bit itchy, but he had to think that this new guy was very talented.

"Hey, have you noticed that this "Parasyte" is very powerful?" The young editor sitting in front turned his chair and leaned over and whispered.

"What? I didn't see it." The old editor took out a cigarette and lit it.

The young editor snorted: "Why are you pretending to be here with me? Now everyone is reading "Parasyte" and wondering what this comic is like."

The old editor took a deep breath and slowly exhaled the smoke ring: "I just took a few glances and thought he had some talent."

"Tell the truth." The young editor smiled.

"Okay, I won't hide it from you. This guy draws very well, the plot is gripping, and the alien oppression is full. In the current market, especially in our "Jump", he is absolutely unique."

"Finally you told the truth. I think so too. If he is allowed to serialize for a few more issues, he may be the most popular!"

The old editor smiled when he heard him say this: "You are still young. Vice President Xiaoshan dared to make a shoe-shining bet with him, so he knew that such a young man with great enthusiasm had a major flaw!"

"What flaw?" The young editor asked quickly.

The old editor leaned back and said slowly: "I can't stop it!"

The young editor was puzzled.

"This manga "Parasyte" relies on the strangeness of the alien species to start, and uses bloody and dazzling gimmicks as a gimmick. Young authors will follow this path to the end. If they cannot transform in time and give this work connotation, not only can it not be called the Showa style, but even readers will get bored and the performance will take a sharp turn for the worse!"

"Ah, I see! Then Sansaburo will guide him, right?"

"Guide? Is it really that easy? And you still call him a newcomer? Where do young people get rich social experience to make the characters come alive? Where do you get life experience to settle in comics?"

"So..."

"So Vice President Koyama is not afraid of betting at all. He dare not say anything else, but newcomers who draw this kind of violent comics will go downhill from the fifth or sixth chapter! Or if he does not have enough themes, but insists on improving the connotation, the result will only be a poor imitation." The old editor vowed.

The old editor who can speak Chinese, this old editor is considered to have cultural background.

"..." The young editor was skeptical.

In fact, some comics analysts have long put forward this view and cited some examples in the history of comics. For example, the old comic "Cape" attracted people's attention with its beast transformation mode. It sold well in the early market, but it obviously lacked stamina in the middle and late stages.

The author of "Cape" stopped updating later, and became a legend that the old men in the comics industry can't forget. This factor is definitely involved, not just because he is rich.

Similar works include "Flame Fist" and "Dark Destroyer". According to some comic critics, the thinking of the authors of these two comics has entered a state of confusion in the middle and late stages...

What are you drawing? ! Many cartoonists turned the table over and seriously criticized this kind of work, which is to the point of moaning without illness and forcing sorrow for the sake of writing new words.

The old editor either kept silent or couldn't stop talking:

"You can understand it this way: Parasyte may look good in the early stage, but the later stage is the key."

"If it is only bloody and eye-catching, it will be far from the level of Showa style, and don't even mention the popularity number one."

"After the fans get used to the violence of the alien species... just wait for it to be cut off!"

The young editor thought for a while: "But, there will be critics and other editors to remind him to correct it, right?"

"Will he have time to correct it? With 50 pages updated every week, where is the time to think carefully? He can only desperately draw violent close-ups to complete the task!" The old editor laughed, "Vice President Koyama is sure to win, he is worthy of being an old fox..."

The last sentence was so quiet that even he couldn't hear it.

After saying that, the young editor turned around with a sense of realization.

The old editor continued to read Parasyte in front of the computer screen.

He felt that he had no intention of reading other comics now, and he always felt that they were not of the same level.

Not to mention the newly submitted manuscripts, even some old cartoonists' articles are too long to read.

"Although this "Parasyte" starts with blood, it is really catchy." The old editor muttered and continued to watch the crisis of the protagonist.

The parasite who cut off his right arm and invited Xiaoyou to come over, his head turned into a sharp blade and slashed at Shinichi.

At the moment when Shinichi felt desperate, Xiaoyou suddenly made a move.

It cut off the sharp blade of the parasite and cut the body of the parasite directly from the neck.

"Are you crazy?" The parasite was unbelievable and tried to reach the cannibal, "My flesh... my flesh..."

The parasite struggled to move its limbs, as if struggling to return to the broken body, but soon it withered and died.

Shinichi was still in shock and his body was still trembling: "Xiaoyou, I'm sorry, I didn't expect..."

Xiaoyou just said lightly: "I don't have confidence in the movement of my body... I only consider my own life."

Shinichi went home and lay on the bed.

In my mind, I still recall the parasitic beast's whispers before it died:

[My body...my body...]

Is that your body? Will people who are assimilated and devoured by parasitic beasts have similar consciousness in their last moments?

Shinichi went out with his female classmates and saw several young people having fun with a cat.

The cat meowed, looking helplessly at its tormentor. Because it was buried in the sand, only one head was exposed.

Cats’ heads are targets for humans to hit with stones.

It's just that young people don't know that the brain is no longer their own in some living people...

Whose body does this belong to?

When the female classmate couldn't bear to watch and wanted to pull Shinichi away, Shinichi stepped forward and rescued the kitten.

[They are alive too! Just like you! ]

But the only response to his scolding was the stones thrown by a few young people.

However, Shinichi's right hand caught it casually.

Shinichi looked at the pebbles in his hand, his eyes filled with a breathtaking aura.

I really want to kill you...

I finally walked hand in hand with my female classmate on the street.

But Shinichi deliberately changed his hand to pull.

[Are you...Izumi Shinichi? ]

[Ah...of course. ]

This ends the third episode.

The old editor was in a daze in front of the screen for a long time.

In the third episode, this talented newcomer cartoonist left comic fans with something other than a crisis plot hook.

It's a feeling that is hard to explain, but still has an aftertaste...

To whom does the body…life…belong…

ah! Cigarette butts are hot! The old editor shook his hands suddenly.

The old editor touched his chin and suddenly sighed: "This Oda Shingo... Vice President Koyama, maybe he will really capsize!"

On Qunyingsha's website, "Parasite" has only been serialized to its second episode.

The new promotional banner has been released.

["Parasite" will be serialized in the "Jump" magazine in the second week of August, with episodes 1-4 in the first issue published! ]
