A middle school cartoonist

I originally thought that the plot of Loli Sakura was depressing and dark enough...

However, after reading about Matou Kariya's experience and listening to a certain chuuni cartoonist's casual supplement of Kariya's tragic fate in the Holy Grail War, the assistant uncle realized that he had greatly underestimated the extent of the chuuni cartoonist's dark depression!

There is no extreme depression and darkness, only more brutal depression and more insane darkness...Just through the story of Kiri Kariya, one of the seven masters in the comic "Ftae", Uncle Tintin can feel how distorted this comic is!

So...

"I say, Cheng, are you really a man if you draw like this?" Will the readers be beaten to death if this type of comic is serialized in a weekly magazine...Actually, this is what Uncle Tintin wanted to say, but considering the chuuni character and powerful force of a certain chuuni cartoonist, the assistant felt that it was more appropriate to use this euphemism!

It is natural for Uncle Tintin to have such doubts!

After all, the publication in which this comic is serialized is currently preparing to be serialized in the weekly magazine "Shonen Jumk" which focuses on [Passion, Friendship and Victory]... However, judging from the completed comic manuscript, it is not yet known whether there are any passionate fighting scenes in this comic, but judging from the content of this episode in hand, it has nothing to do with the so-called [friendship]!

As for [Victory]... The way those magicians in the comics use all means to win, in the weekly magazine that focuses on [Shonen Kingly Way], even if it can barely match the spicy and evil style, it will definitely be highlighted as an extremely weird existence!

"By the way, Ding Ding Ji-san, are you underestimating the capacity of Weekly Shonen Jumk? You know, many years ago, the weekly even serialized a manga as evil as DN!" Facing Uncle Ding Ding's concerns, Takahashi Makoto was quite calm, "With the progress of the times, human beings are becoming more and more receptive. Although the negative effect is that people's hearts become darker and darker, and their humanity is increasingly lost, but readers could even accept the manga DN back then, so how could they not be able to bear a mere Fate now... Ding Ding Ji-san, never underestimate the degree of human acceptance of darkness and depression, and don't underestimate the bottom line of human nature that is lost from the bad roots!"

"By the way, when talking about comics, Please don't bring up such profound topics as human nature so casually... and I'm just a little worried! "Listening to the serious nonsense of a certain middle school cartoonist, Uncle Ding Ding complained helplessly, "But Yoshida-kun hasn't seen the content of this episode yet... If Yoshida-kun comes to collect the comic manuscript soon, he will find that the story of the whole comic is different from what he originally expected..."

The scene created at the beginning of the comic "Fate", the magician hidden in the other world, the projection of the hero in human legend [Heroic Spirit], the Holy Grail that can fulfill all wishes... The comic revolving around these elements looks like a magnificent and passionate comic, and it has nothing to do with the so-called depressing comics!

However, after reading the content of this completed episode...Uncle Ding Ding realized that he was deceived by the beginning of the comic!!!

Even as an assistant, he was deceived by a certain chuuni cartoonist, so he could judge others by himself... Uncle Dingding could imagine what kind of wonderful expression Yoshida would show when he saw the content of this chapter when he came to collect the comic manuscript!

"Hmm... The expression of my cat will be very interesting, and it will definitely make me feel [happy]!" Takahashi Makoto said this in a matter-of-fact tone, which made Uncle Dingding's mouth twitch! "And hasn't my cat confirmed that the comic "Fate" has passed the serialization meeting and decided to be serialized in the weekly issue next week? It has already started to prepare for serialization in the weekly, it is impossible that after serialization for a period of time... Hmm? Ding Ding Ji, you don't mean that such a plot will be cut off after serialization?"

"That's right! There are not a few cases in the history of weekly magazines where serialized comics were cut off because of the plot..." Uncle Ding Ding glanced at the comic manuscript on the table and sighed with some regret, "If the comic was cut off because of that reason... It's really a pity and not worth it!"

How much effort did a certain middle school cartoonist spend on this comic called "Fate"... As an assistant, Uncle Ding Ding knows it very well!

In order to satisfy himself with the expression of a certain character, Makoto Takahashi even discarded a whole page of the comics that had already been completed and drew it again... As an assistant to a certain chuuni cartoonist, this was the first time that Uncle Tintin saw Makoto Takahashi being so demanding on a comic!

Such a strict cartoonist, who tried so hard to pursue a perfect comics, let alone the problems with the plot... Based on these two points alone, Uncle Tintin could conclude that this comic called "Fate" was definitely the best comic he had ever seen in all the years he had been an assistant, nothing less!

However, if this comic, which has taken a lot of time and energy, is eventually forced to be cut in half due to plot reasons after being serialized for a period of time... Whenever he thinks of the possibility of such a tragedy, Uncle Tintin feels really depressed for Makoto Takahashi. !

"Is it a pity...?" Makoto Takahashi murmured in a low voice, stopped the brush in his hand, looked at Uncle Tintin seriously and said, "Although I am happy with what you said, Tintin Ji-san, but... Tintin Gisang, have you ever heard of another saying that fell from the sky... ahem, no, should it be a saying that contains profound philosophical truth? "

"Wait! This kind of similar scene... could it be..." When Uncle Ding Ding heard Takahashi Makoto ask such a question in this familiar tone, he instantly thought of a certain possibility... But if you want to stop something, it's too late for visual inspection!

"That is... to be strong without desire!" Makoto Takahashi seemed to have not heard Uncle Tintin's words at all. Instead, he crossed his hands and clasped his chin, putting on a serious expression of "Fellow Taoist, please listen to me discuss the way of heaven", "In human beings In a short life, if you think about it carefully, you will find that what humans do in the process from birth to death is basically meaningless... However, despite being aware of this fact, humans Driven by various reasons, we still do those meaningless things without hesitation! "

"Sure enough, I knew it would be like this...it starts again!" Uncle Ding Ding covered his face helplessly. After muttering something in a low voice, he immediately pretended to listen carefully...because if he didn't show a If you say "I am a good student who listens attentively to lectures", a certain chuuni mangaka will definitely extend this behavior, which he and Yoshida call "fanatical preaching of chuuni ideas", to more than two hours!

As for why Uncle Tintin and Yoshida know what to do, and why they know the consequences of not doing that, to use common sense that is easily ignored by humans is... You envy others for their knowledge, but you don’t know how much others have spent on it. Work hard to learn; you are amazed at the sophistication, sophistication and high emotional intelligence of others, and you are unaware of the physical and mental trauma they have suffered in the past!

"The root of all human behavior is driven by various instincts! Once human beings pursue something, they will act and pay for it, and at the same time, they will have two emotions: satisfaction and dissatisfaction... But it's a pity. The thing is, almost all human beings have indeed gained a lot after taking actions and contributions, based on the principle of "equivalent exchange", but human beings are still dissatisfied because of their own greed!" Makoto Takahashi! After seeing Uncle Tintin's distorted expression, a smile named [joy] appeared on his face, "So, instead of worrying about the comic being cut in half... let's think about how to complete the comic manuscript!"

"So, Cheng, what do you mean..." Uncle Ding Ding scratched his head in frustration and asked with some uncertainty, "Don't worry about whether it can be serialized, and don't worry about being cut in half in the middle of the series. All you need to do is , is it enough to just paint...?”

"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that! And Tintin Gi-san, you will have all kinds of worries. To put it simply..." Observing that Uncle Tintin understood his thoughts well, Takahashi Makoto nodded with satisfaction, At the same time, he did not forget to say in a contemptuous tone, "Because you are too greedy!"

In a sense, Uncle Tintin also admitted that what Makoto Takahashi said made sense, but then...

What was originally a relatively normal exchange between the cartoonist and his assistant turned into a philosophical discussion! ?
