A middle school cartoonist

Takahashi Makoto, who was drawing comics, looked at the wall clock, put down his brush, picked up the phone beside him, and entered the middle school talk mode under the helpless gaze of his assistants!

"...It's me! That's right, the tea party went smoothly. Little Otter has seen the evil nature of my cat very clearly...At the same time, it has also deepened his faith in the Lord Fenghuangyuan Xiong Zhenshen! As long as the current situation is maintained, after the "Goddess Capture Plan" is completed, Little Otter, who has changed his job to be a wife-control, will completely become my running dog slave..." Hiding in the dark corner of the room, Makoto Takahashi held the phone in one hand and gently opened the curtain with the other hand, secretly peeping at the figure approaching below, and the expression on his face became serious, "...This is the situation. It is estimated that the organization's undercover No. 1 is approaching! If you continue to talk, there will be a risk of being detected..."

Yoshida has arrived at the bottom of the apartment building where Makoto Takahashi lives, but this time, Yoshida's face is not too good! Although Makoto Takahashi had activated the fusion skill before, the performance of the three comics was indeed good. Unfortunately, Yoshida, who was still immersed in joy, couldn't laugh at all after getting the comic rankings this morning! "Inuyasha" dropped to eighth place, "Nura: The Dark Knight" dropped to seventh place, and "Ushio to Tora", which had been attacking fiercely before, dropped to sixth place! The three comics directly fell out of the top five, making Yoshida, who was still complacent last week, become a frost-bitten eggplant!

The ups and downs of life are so fast that Yoshida can't react!

Yoshida originally planned to take advantage of the day to collect comic manuscripts today to discuss with Makoto Takahashi how to change the next three comics! However, since Yoshida stepped into the room, he found that the assistants looked at him with a weird look! Although he didn't know what happened, he didn't need to think about it. It must be something that Makoto Takahashi did!

"Ahem... Ah Cheng, you know your comics this time..."

With a light cough, Yoshida completely ignored the strange looks of the crowd, and went straight to the point, telling Takahashi Makoto about the decline in the rankings of the three comics. One is to divert everyone's attention, and the other is to see if Takahashi Makoto has a strategy to deal with it! Although Yoshida is an editor, he is only responsible for the relevant content of the comics at most. As for how to draw the comics and how the plot will develop, Yoshida can't help!

And this time, Takahashi Makoto and Yoshida have already expected the decline in the rankings of the three monster comics! In the previous joint operation of the three comics, characters from the three monster worlds appeared in the same comic. This shocking scene is really outstanding! But because of this, the content that returned to normal later made readers lose interest!

Although from the side, the previous joint operation was very successful, and although it was expected that the rankings of the three comics that returned to normal later would decline, Yoshida did not expect that it would decline so much!

"Tsk! The Black Flame King's actions were expected, but..." Takahashi Makoto turned his head and looked at the wall opposite the desk, with a trace of doubt on his face, "Yajo Mumengye unexpectedly took the right response... got the latest information... Did my good friend join the organization!"

No, any cartoonist who has been serializing for a while can predict it!

Yoshida rolled his eyes helplessly at Takahashi Makoto's doubts without common sense! The effect of the previous joint operation was indeed very good, but it is impossible to keep it like this until the end, right? Although this scene appeared once or twice, it is indeed a very shocking thing for readers, but if it appears too frequently, let alone one comic, the three monster comics will completely collapse because of the confusion of the main line logic!

Let alone Takahashi Makoto's three monster comics, even the several popular comics that are now recognized cannot always maintain an explosive state. The ups and downs of the plot are the king! It is normal for the ranking to fluctuate! It is not okay to use too many surprises!

Therefore, in the previous episode, both Eiji Niizuma and the good friend duo of Ajo Mumengye from next door chose a more interesting episode. They took advantage of the decline of Takahashi Makoto's three monster comics and launched a fierce attack. The effect... just from the decline in the ranking of Takahashi Makoto's monster comics, you can know it!

"Humph! In fact, I have already expected all this!" Takahashi Makoto responded with a completely disdainful look to Yoshida's contemptuous eyes, "And my cat, have you forgotten that my Phoenix Inner Kyouma is a time observer, an existence that can peek into the future! For the current situation, I already have a plan to deal with it! All of this is the choice of Steins; Gate, hahahahaha..."

This guy... is already hopeless!

Yoshida covered his forehead with his hand, sighed helplessly, picked up the comic manuscript, and began to read it! Although Yoshida really wanted to discuss the direction of the three comics with Takahashi Makoto, now is not the time to discuss! Not to mention that Takahashi Makoto still has to draw the comics, and a large group of assistants at home are still working. If they discuss comics at this time, it will affect the assistants' work!

Under normal circumstances, when editors and cartoonists discuss comics, they will choose a relatively quiet environment, such as a cafe or something... However, because of the title of "White Cyclops" above Makoto Takahashi's head, he was rejected by many cafes outside! Therefore, every time he discussed with Makoto Takahashi, Yoshida could only come to the door in person! Although every time he comes to discuss comics, he can collect comic manuscripts by the way, avoiding the trouble of repeated trips, but because of the assistant, Yoshida has to wait for a while every time!

According to Makoto Takahashi's explanation, this is the time specially left for Yoshida's roaring skill to cool down!

As usual, Makoto Takahashi led his assistants to brush copies of the manga, while Yoshida, as the supervisor, sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and read the manga! Because the results of the three comics have been good recently, Yoshida did not deliberately choose a certain comic to read in advance, but read it in the order in which the comics were arranged!

The content of this chapter "InuYasha" is similar to the previous chapter. The dog InuYasha still leads the team and keeps clearing monster copies in order to collect the four soul jade. The monster Naraku hiding behind the scenes is still the same as usual. Arrange various conspiracies while instructing his monsters to interfere with Inuyasha and others! Whether it is the style of painting or the development of the plot, they are almost at the same level as before!

This comic is based on the search for the Jade of the Four Souls, with a human-male love triangle mixed in in the middle, but this is also the selling point of the comic "Inuyasha"! Except for some super popular comics, most of the comics on "Shounen Jumk" in recent years are focused on passionate battles. Although they attract many male readers, it is not easy to attract female readers for comics about fighting and killing. favor!

Especially in the past two years, due to the popularity of meat-selling anime, a large number of marginal paintings have successfully attracted many male readers, but female readers have gradually begun to lose! The sad thing is that many cartoonists realize that it is easier to attract readers by drawing some marginal pictures, so they focus exclusively on it, and rarely pay attention to the story plot and drawing skills! Instead of racking your brains to construct a story plot, instead of spending a lot of time thinking about the painting skills, it is better to draw more marginal paintings, which saves time and effort...

But Acheng's works...it seems that there have never been those marginal paintings, right? Yoshida put aside the finished drawing of "Inuyasha" and looked at Makoto Takahashi who was drawing with curiosity! By the way, although this guy is married now, he might still be a virgin...

"Huh?" Before Yoshida could react, he felt something next to his ear, passing by at an extremely fast speed! Like a rusty robot, Yoshida turned his head one by one and saw half of the paintbrush exposed on the back of the sofa!

"Hey! Brother Cheng really doesn't have enough practice in flying knives..." Makoto Takahashi, who was complaining in a low voice, slowly put down his hand, and his face immediately changed to the smile of a professional public relations person. He squinted his right eye and said to Yoshida with a smile. , "Oh, my hand slipped a bit, I'm sorry!"

"A-Cheng, do you want to kill me?" Yoshida, who had not yet come out of the frightened state, didn't even have time to wipe the cold sweat off his head, and immediately launched a roaring attack!

"Huh! My beloved cat, this is just an experiment!" The smile on Takahashi Makoto's face faded and he complained unhappily, "According to legend, cats have nine lives... and as my beloved As a dependent cat, you naturally have 250 lives, so you only need to be killed once or twice. Just go back to the fifth sister to replenish the demons at night. Do you need such a big monster? The seventeen-part expression... Humph! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking!”

"Didn't you just turn your back to me and work hard to draw?" Yoshida looked at Makoto Takahashi angrily, "Don't tell me that you have the ability to read minds! That's just the second grade..."

"Mind reading? Huh, I have mastered that ability when I was ten years old! Now it has evolved into 'perception of evil'! As long as you have bad thoughts about the murderous nature of our Phoenix Academy, you can be sensed! "Takahashi Makoto looked up at the ceiling with emotion on his face, "At that time, in order to improve my abilities, I completed Gaia Loli's top ten problems and fought against the mad King of Heroes a thousand times... You That expression of complete incomprehension... Sigh! Are you just a mortal after all?"

"Hmph!" Yoshida tried his best to suppress the quarrel with Makoto Takahashi who was in his second year in school. He snorted coldly and stared at Makoto Takahashi fiercely. After a long silence, he finally turned his attention to the next comic "Slicker"! After Makoto Takahashi saw Yoshida entering observer mode, a happy smile appeared on his face and he continued to draw comics!

"Huh? This is..." After Yoshida turned a few pages, he sat up straight and stared at the comic manuscript of "Slippery Ghost" with an expression of disbelief on his face!

"By the way, my beloved cat, what was the outcome of that incident before?" Makoto Takahashi did not stop painting, nor did he listen to Yoshida's answer, and spoke to himself, "Although there are not many scenes. , but I think my followers will like Grandpa Monster very much, right? So I specially added his content in this chapter!"

"Since you have already drawn it like this, do you still need to know the result?" Yoshida lowered his head and looked through the comics while complaining angrily, "Really, since you have already decided to draw like this, you still need to know the results of the comics. Character popularity ranking?”

"It seems very interesting to see you busy without knowing anything!" Hey, hey, hey, Takahashi Makoto, you are definitely in sadomasochism mode, right?

"But Makoto, is it really okay to set it up like this?" Yoshida looked at Takahashi Makoto with some doubts, and there was worry between his eyebrows, "You know, it has already appeared in "Ushio and Tora"..."

"This is fate, my cat!" Takahashi Makoto put down the brush, stood up, shook his white coat, and entered the laughing middle school mode, "That's right, this is the choice of Steins;Gate! Hahahaha..."
