Chapter 445: Death God Elementary School Students Massacre Japan

Keita Urata tried hard to finish an episode of the show, but after learning the true identity of the bandaged man, he finally couldn't hold on any longer.

He was extremely excited, looking at the morning light outside the window, and couldn't help shouting:

"What a masterpiece! I didn't expect China to have such a wonderful anime!"

Not only was he excited about seeing a new masterpiece, but he was also excited about catching the hot spots in the video.

He knew that "Detective Conan" was extremely popular right now, and that most of the voices were critical and mocking.

If he makes a recommendation video, sets things right, and strongly recommends this anime, it will attract a lot of attention.

Of course, after expressing controversial views, he will inevitably be subjected to a lot of abuse and slander, saying that he has surrendered to the Chinese.

But he believes that with the quality of "Conan", more and more viewers will agree with his views.

That’s when he gained followers!
As for the satirical copy that he had confirmed earlier, he simply tore it up and threw it into the trash can:
“What is the relationship between me yesterday and me today?”

Urata Keita was very excited, but after staying up all night, he was too sleepy, so he fell asleep with great expectations:
“I’ll make a video when I wake up and gain a million followers!”

He slept until the afternoon and finally regained his energy.

But before getting up, he casually checked YouTube on his phone and saw a few more videos on the homepage.

[Detective Conan is a masterpiece? Highly recommended! ]

[2 minutes to learn about "Detective Conan", an excellent mystery comic that was almost buried]

Keita Urata:? ? ?
He was stunned for a moment, then clicked on it and found that a YouTuber had already made a video praising the quality of "Detective Conan".

This left him dumbfounded.

In the self-media world, the first person to put forward an opinion gets all the traffic, while the rest of the people who follow suit can only get the leftovers.

The hot spot he discovered was still seized by others first.

"Assholes! Why did you surrender to the Chinese?"

He obviously wanted to be the first to surrender!

Unfortunately, this line was too tight, and after a good night’s sleep, it was too late for anything.

With a look of regret on his face, Keita Urata could only quickly make a recommendation video, praising "Detective Conan" in an attempt to get some traffic.

After he finished making it, he gritted his teeth and thought:
Since I can’t be the first YouTuber to discover the treasure, I’ll be the one who brags the most—

[A masterpiece that brings shame to Japan! In front of Conan, all Japanese cartoonists should commit seppuku to apologize! ]

……

As Conan became famous, naturally some viewers clicked to play it.

As long as one is not completely uninterested in such subjects or has malicious intentions, no one can deny the high quality of "Detective Conan".

So amidst the numerous opinions mocking "Detective Conan", some positive comments gradually emerged.

Although it is very weak and small, and was even attacked by those who ridiculed it as the Chinese navy, there has been a certain turnaround after all.

And as the more vocal self-media took action, public opinion shifted even faster.

Opponents can only say discriminatory Chinese words such as "What do Chinese people know about anime" and "What do Chinese people know about reasoning".

However, supporters can give all-round praise to "Detective Conan" from various angles including plot, character setting, tricks, ingenuity, atmosphere, etc.

"Detective Conan" is certainly not perfect. For example, as a romance comic, the heroine Xiaolan has gradually become a supporting role, or even a minor role, and her character has gradually collapsed.

Even his original positioning as a tool of force has been gradually abandoned. Not to mention compared with Kyogoku Makoto, who is the ceiling of combat power, his role is not as big as Conan's football.

The Shinran Party can be said to be one of the most miserable CP fans in the official comics.

As a mystery comic, the case designs vary, some are brilliant, while others are almost nonsense.

But this is inevitable for serialized comics. Even if the god of reasoning were to write the story, it would be impossible to ensure that every case in a thousand episodes would be equally exciting.

But in the first 200 episodes, Xiaolan's character has not collapsed much, most of the cases are above the standard, there are also some horror cases, and the quality is very high.

Later, it gradually shifted towards action, agents, and big scenes, resulting in a relative decline in quality, but it is still an excellent anime.

So at this point, the quality of "Detective Conan" is excellent, and the supporters have solid reasons, leaving the opponents with nothing but nonsense and constant parroting.

Netizens may not have sharp eyes, but after seeing the arguments from both sides, most of them became curious.

And once they clicked on Conan, most of them were hooked.

Unfortunately, due to data anomalies and Su Zhe's "surrender", Netflix has frozen the click data, so the performance of "Detective Conan" cannot be seen in terms of popularity.

But the number of supporters of "Conan" is increasing, and this cannot be faked.

A large number of Japanese people took the initiative to speak for Conan:
【For an excellent work, don’t care about nationality. 】

[Excellent, don't look at it with tinted glasses.]

[I don’t know if Conan has inflated the data, but he deserves to be at the top of the list.]

[This is the best new show I have seen in the past ten years. ]

[It is also the best mystery comic I have ever read. ]

In the face of opponents' clamors such as "China also has comics", some people even popularized science:
[How dare you say that there is no animation in China? Even the God of Comics, Osamu Tezuka, studied Chinese animation before joining the animation industry.]

That's true, but when you're not strong enough now (referring to anime), no one will remember your glorious past except yourself.

So it wasn't until Conan was recognized that someone found this argument and threw it out.

As the internet war broke out in Japan, these remarks were translated back into China.

Domestic netizens were stunned. They were still discussing whether Su Zhe's data-padding was an insult to the national dignity and a disgrace to the Chinese people.

As a result, Japanese netizens changed their attitudes, and many viewers spontaneously spoke well of "Detective Conan".

Keita Urata's exaggerated title and opinions did not catch fire in Japan, but became popular in China:
[A masterpiece that brings shame to Japan? A Japanese cartoonist commits seppuku to apologize? Is that so exaggerated? ]

[The content is even more disgusting. He calls Su Zhe "the almighty overlord of the imperial entertainment industry" and "the undertaker of Japanese animation"! Even Gan Ze wouldn't dare to say that, right? ]

[Fuck, the devil is just a middle school student, this is too exaggerated. ]

In fact, netizens are very "snobbish". Many times they don't care about right or wrong, they only care about the results.

Even if the rappers manipulated the charts, the result was that Japanese audiences recognized "Detective Conan" and even praised it. Then manipulating the charts changed from "an unforgivable and shameful act" to "a helpless act to break through discrimination."

Someone explained for the sugarcanes:

[Detective Conan is such a good show, but because of the discrimination of the devils, no one watches it, and it may even be cancelled. Isn't this really unfair? ]

[It is understandable that the fans want to justify the reputation of "Detective Conan". ]

Faced with this kind of public opinion, Su Zhe did not back down from the situation, acknowledging that this was just a propaganda strategy, but reiterated:

[No matter what the reason, we oppose any form of chart manipulation. We accept all the punishments from Netflix. 】

He knows that netizens' tone of voice can change at any time, and standing firm and firmly drawing a line between oneself and wrong behavior is the attitude that will never be wrong.

For example, opposing doping is absolutely correct. We can laugh at asthma in the United States and defend our athletes, but we must never say "if you take it, we can take it too", which is a disguised support for doping.

Right and wrong will not change with the temporary public opinion of netizens. After the wave of public opinion has passed, everyone has a scale in their hearts, and will make their own judgments even if they don't say it out loud.

Under Su Zhe's firm attitude, the fans did not dare to continue the whitewashing and ranking manipulation behavior, and carefully watched Netflix's punishment.

And the haters are also eyeing Netflix's punishment.

Once it’s taken off the shelves, what’s the point of being popular?

But they really "overestimated" Netflix.

As a commercial company, seeing that "Detective Conan" is so popular and starting to take off, how could they possibly take it off the shelves?

Idol Wu’s album was removed from the shelves because no one bought it except for his fans who were pushing it to the charts, so why keep it?
Commercial companies are best able to distinguish who can help them make money.

So, Netflix issued a notice:

【The viewing time of "Detective Conan" last week was 712 million hours (Netflix's play list is calculated based on play time rather than clicks), of which 683 million hours of IP came from China.】

[This week, the total viewing time was 946 million hours, of which 3 hours of IPs were from China. ]

What does this notice say?

This fully demonstrates Netflix's shrewdness.

Last week, almost all the IPs that watched the show were from China. Does this count as fake data? Anyone with a discerning eye knows it counts. After all, why don’t Chinese fans watch it on Penguin Comics?
But can't Chinese people watch Netflix? --Oh, really not, domestic law does not allow circumventing the firewall.

But Netflix does not object. After all, they are all real users and the data is not faked by software, so there is no reason to punish them.

Netflix was also considerate enough to give out this week's data. Because the fans got Su Zhe scolded, they were so scared that they dared not brush the data anymore. The main viewing volume came from Japan.

In this case, the viewing time is even longer, and it still tops the weekly animation chart.

Under this fact, it is meaningless to investigate whether last week's data could be considered as inflated data.

In short, without punishment, the haters could no longer criticize him, and Su Zhe avoided being scolded.

His consistent attitude has also won the admiration of fans and passers-by.

More importantly, after this incident, "Detective Conan" became completely popular in Japan.

Even Tepco, which had been broadcasting Conan at midnight, was scolded by the audience:
“Why don’t you air Conan during prime time? Why do you keep us up late?”

TEPCO feels aggrieved:
It is not put on at midnight to make the audience stay up late, but because we think that no one except the heavy taste audience will watch it!
But after being scolded, TEPCO honestly bowed and apologized, and immediately moved "Detective Conan" to prime time.

With the broadcast on TV, the influence of "Detective Conan" has grown and the ratings have been getting higher and higher.

In its past life, "Detective Conan" was a well-deserved national animation in Japan. Since its broadcast, its ratings for the thousandth episode have always remained in the top five animations. It is conceivable how rare this is for a super long animation.

In addition to animation, the total sales of comic books are in the top five, the average box office of the theatrical version ranks first in the animation industry, and has won the annual championship many times. There are also real buildings such as Conan Town and Conan Airport.

This status is even higher than in China. Conan's fame and popularity even surpass those of more famous domestic anime characters such as Sun Wukong, Naruto, and Luffy, and is second only to characters such as Fat Blue and Chibi Maruko-chan.

(There was a questionnaire survey in Japan, so forget about other characters, but I really didn’t expect that Sun Wukong would be better.)
Today, since Su Zhe's version of "Detective Conan" has just been launched, its popularity has not accumulated for 30 years and it certainly has not reached the heights of its predecessor.

But in terms of ratings, it quickly approached 10%, ranking among the top three anime.

Among the new animations in the past five years, it has become the well-deserved number one.

In addition to the old national comics, the animation ratings slightly surpassed "Detective Conan" thanks to the huge number of comic fans, but other animations were brutally killed by the Death God Elementary School Student.

The Japanese animation industry exclaimed:

[Death is coming! Conan is wreaking havoc in the animation world! ]

[Why is it that a primary school student detective leaves Japanese animation powerless to fight back? ]

[Japanese animation has fallen into a stagnant state, beware of the rise of Chinese animation. ]

[Has the developed country crusher come to the animation field this time? 】

["Detective Conan" is the vanguard of Chinese animation invading Japan! ]

The China threat theory is here again.

Anyway, there are always various theories of China's collapse and threat coming out from abroad, highlighting one thing: "China just doesn't speak properly."

Anyway, in their mouths, China is either about to be destroyed or is a threat to them and needs to be "killed" quickly. They have never thought about coexisting peacefully with us, and they are even more unwilling to see us live a good life.

Generally speaking, the collapse theory is more beneficial to China, as it allows China to make a fortune in silence, which leads to those die-hard traitors badmouthing China all day long, and they are instead dubbed "senior officials of the Strategic Research Institute" by netizens.

The threat theory is not conducive to our using the old wisdom of the Ming Dynasty and playing the trick of "building high walls and storing up food to slowly become king", but it does sound good!

When we hear anti-China elements say "China is too powerful and is going to kill us", we say "China loves peace", but in our hearts we are secretly happy saying "Yes, yes, yes, when I grow up, I will kill you all!"
Therefore, when the right-wingers in Japan exaggerated the power of "Detective Conan" and attempted to oppose "Detective Conan", domestic netizens felt very fresh and happy:
[What about those who think that the devil is their father? Now that your father has admitted that Conan is excellent, do you still dare to say that Su Zhe is just a monkey claiming to be the king? ]

[I really don't understand. I also like watching Japanese anime, because to be honest, they are indeed well drawn. But why do you insult domestic anime? Why don't you hope that China will get better so that you can watch Chinese anime in the future?]

[I had no confidence in Huaxia Animation, but when Su Zhe announced his entry into the animation industry, I became confident! That’s Su Zhe! ]

[Yes, that’s Su Zhe! ]

#That’s Su Zhe# became a hot search on Weibo.

On Twitter, #Who is Su Zhe# also topped the trend list in the Japanese region.

After "Detective Conan" became popular and the right-wingers exaggerated his threats, many people became interested in the creator Su Zhe.

In Japan, there are many fans of cartoonists, and Su Zhe, as a mysterious Chinese "cartoonist", naturally attracted the attention of "Detective Conan" fans——

[Who is Su Zhe? What other works does he have? ]
