1983 Past Life Manga King

Chapter 154

Kido, who had calmed down for a moment, opened his mouth.

“Well, he’s been a good guy since the days of the Manga Research Club, where he drew doujinshi. He’s particularly talented in science fiction, so magazine editors have been coming to him since college.”

“Oh, I did.”

“But why is he suddenly starting a serial in Boy Heroes? Wasn’t the manga ‘Esperzone’ still in the works?”

“Yes. However, I heard that the rankings are being pushed back in Weekly Fire these days, but it seems that we are continuing the series with Esper Zone this time.”

At that, Kido put on an absurd expression on his face.

“Oh my gosh, out of many magazines, why am I the boy hero?”

“That’s… It sounds like the managing director used his hand.”

“Are you the managing director, Mitsuda Shoten’s managing director?”

“Yeah.”

“Oh, is that gentleman trying to attract more famous writers to the boy hero and make it a popular magazine?”

“No, it doesn’t look like that.”

Kido frowned at Tegoshi’s words.

“Isn’t it?”

“As far as I know, the managing director doesn’t like the editor very much.”

At that, Kido nodded his head as if he understood.

“What is it, a faction fight? So, that means that Nishida didn’t come with her good intentions.”

“Yes. I had a conversation with the editor.”

“negotiation?”

“Yes. Mitsuda Shoten has been talking about making a new boys’ magazine for a long time. However, after Samsara was serialized, the boy hero was doing well, so I knew that the plan was completely thwarted, but it seems that wasn’t the case.”

“Why the hell do you need a new magazine?”

It was a situation that Kido could not understand.

Weekly Boys Heroes is now more popular than ever. It’s crazy for anyone to think about making a new magazine like that.

“Because the managing director was supposed to be the editor-in-chief.”

“Oh, so the editor here isn’t his person.”

“Yeah. Anyway, the plan for a new magazine has been shattered. It seems that it has surfaced again.”

“why?”

“Because the managing director is the boss’s brother-in-law. Perhaps he was attached to his sister, who is the boss’s wife. So, I talked with the boss on condition, and I accepted it. Well, it’s expected.”

At Tegoshi’s words, Kido clicked her tongue with a dissatisfied expression on her.

“So, it’s that he’s focused on how much influence he can exert in the company by creating more limbs rather than the development of the company. Unlucky bastard. Yeah, what are the conditions?”

“It’s about being ranked number one. Five weeks in a row.”

At that, Kido put on an absurd expression on his face.

And immediately it got serious.

“Five weeks in a row? What if that happens?”

“A new magazine will be launched, and now the boy hero team will be disbanded. Of course, the top-ranked comics will be inherited. The low-ranking comics will be cut down.”

“He’s like a pest that shouldn’t exist in the company.”

“It’s worse than a pest. It has power.”

“Hmm.”

Kido scratched his chin with a worried look.

“Isn’t this good?”

“Yes. Even within the editorial department, many people think that this is an unreasonable condition. In the beginning, Mr. Nishida is at a different level. He sells an average of more than 400,000 copies per book alone.

First of all, don’t you have a different name?”

“Yeah. He hates seeing what he’s doing, but he has talent. No matter how popular he is these days, it’s not something anyone can do to serialize one work for more than 10 years.”

“That’s why the editorial department is in a mess.”

As Tegoshi made a worried expression, Kido tapped him on the shoulder.

“Still, this is our district. No matter how good a guy is in other places, it won’t be easy to win 1st place for 5 weeks. And I’m not the person I was before. !”

***

Click.

After receiving Jiro’s phone call, I sighed.

I’m not really funny

It’s a faction fight within the company.

Wherever I go, there are always guys like me.

The author, Jeon Moo, only believes in his position as the president’s brother-in-law and runs wild.

To be honest, I don’t care if the magazines change or not, but I still get annoyed when I say that the person in charge can change.

At first glance, I heard that the managing director was opposed to the Samsara serialization, but I thought it was just a happening and moved on, but at this point it is clear that it is a nuisance.

Actually, he knows Nishida Yuki very well.

As a sci-fi cartoonist, I have been serializing ‘Esper Zone’ since the early 70’s, and this is a comic that has been serialized for almost 40 years until 2010. As far as I remember, it must have been about 70 volumes.

At first, it was serialized steadily, but at some point it became an irregular series, and it ended up with an ambivalent feeling in the 70th volume.

Even so, the cartoon ‘Esper Zone’ is clearly a popular cartoon in this era, and the number of copies is huge.

I don’t know if it’s a new manga series, but if you start serializing this manga as it is, the number of magazine sales will change immediately.

It is definitely a tough opponent for the current Samsarana and Pasiencia.

However, I have no intention of quietly giving away the first place.

Not just for the boy hero, but for me, it’s something I can’t pass on as it is.

Anyway, from this year on, there will be a lot of manga in the Japanese manga world, and I was thinking of upgrading the manga a bit more in preparation for it.

In order to fight the monsters of Boy Jump in the future, it is a hill that must be crossed anyway.

I’m just excited about it without realizing it.

“Would you like to change the storyline a bit from now on?”(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

Seonhee looked at me with a strange expression at my words and nodded her head without much thought.

“Okay.”

“Aren’t you going to ask?”

“I’m not curious.”

Ah. this.

I was just trying to explain why.

But the wrong guy asks the question.

“Why?”

This is Kyunghee

But I listened to it and started talking to Seon-hee straight away.

“Now, how are you going to fix it…”

“Brother, isn’t it too much? I’m curious.”

“Uh, did you?”

“Isn’t that right, tell me, explain.

“I force myself to hit the floor with my palms.

“Can’t we just be curious?”

“Is that going to happen?”

“Hey, I got it.”

At that time, Kyung-hee smiled and hurled her one-tube towards the ceiling, as if she was satisfied with it.

“I talked to Akagi during the day, and in the next three weeks, a manga called ‘Esper Zone’ will be serialized.”

“What is esper zone?”

“…that’s why I don’t want to talk about it.”

“It doesn’t cost money to say, please explain. Brother.”

“……”

He paused for a moment and then started explaining.

Then, Kyung-hee exclaims, ‘Oh, oh.’

“That’s a great cartoon, and I must have made a lot of money.”

“I made a lot of money. A lot. Plus, it’s been a long-term series for more than 10 years. The recognition is huge.”

“So you’re saying that such a great manga will start serializing in Boy Heroes in the future?”

“right.”

“Isn’t that a good thing? Competing with a talented cartoonist would be good for my brother and Seonhee.”

“It’s not as simple as you think.”

Kyunghee is curious about my words.

“Is there something?”

“there is.”

“Tell me, tell me.”

“You’re talking now. So shut your mouth.”

“Ah.”

After saying that, he pretends to zip his mouth.

It was only after she saw it that she could talk about the main point.

“So, if that great manga starts to be serialized and then tops the charts for 5 weeks in a row…”

After hearing about the general situation, Kyung Hee distorted her impression and ranted.

“What, what’s the situation? You say you’re doing great as a boy hero right now, but why do you suddenly change magazines?”

“We just have to do what we’ve been doing. Of course, I don’t know for sure whether the role will change or not.”

“Is it okay if I change into someone other than that Japanese uncle?”

“It’s not like that.”

“Then oppa and Seon-hee are also related.”

“Well, it is, after all.”

“It’s not like this when you look at it. How good is that Japanese guy, and he likes you too.”

At that, I smiled and nodded my head.

“Yeah. As you say.”

“Why did the top-headed men make such a decision?”

“You’re the boss, so please be gentle.”

“Oh, sorry. Anyway, why?”

“I don’t know about that. It’s the business of the people who run the company.”

Other fishermen intervened in my words.

“It’s too much. I thought Japan was going to be something different.”

“That’s right. Still, I thought it was a decent place because it’s a developed country.”

“It’s not like a partisan fight in the Joseon Dynasty.”

Then Silver intervenes in a quiet voice.

“That’s okay, it doesn’t matter. Power inevitably turns people into assholes. And although Japan is a developed country, it’s about the economy.”

At those words, everyone’s eyes focused on Silver.

However, Silver does not open her mouth any more and is focused on touching the character of Pasiencia.

Seonhee, who was quiet then, said to me.

“Oppa, then, let’s edit the storyline.”

“Oh yeah.”

Then I started reviewing Seon-hee’s story again.

First of all, the overall configuration is now very proficient.

The storyline currently being devised for the serialization is about 100 pages long, so much that it is worthwhile to nagging hard.

Serially, 5 episodes.

Of course, not only Samsara, but also Pasiencia has made a similar amount of continuity in advance.

But from now on, Samsara is going to undergo a major surgery.

In order to do that, it is necessary to take a closer look at the continuity and the story that will unfold in the future. But it’s not good to worry about it for too long.

‘Handshake at the end of Django.’

Because this is my personal opinion.

Anyway, the first thing that came to my mind after going through 100 pages at a time was the lack of drama.

If the story goes so smoothly, in other words, it might just mean boring. Of course, readers who follow like inertia may enjoy this as it is, but in the end, that’s all.

“How’s Samsara’s story these days?”

Seonhee, who seemed to think about my question for a moment, opened her mouth.

“fun.”

“Anything you want?”

“there is.”

“What?”

“It’s not heartbreaking.”

“Heartbeat?”

“Huh.”

Does that mean you don’t have enough curiosity to make your heart race?

As expected, Seon-hee seems to think that although it is fun, the dramatic part is lacking.

“Yeah. Then you should put in the heart-pounding content.”
