A middle school cartoonist

Despair is an important component of human life, but it is also the feeling that humans hate the most!

The so-called despair is a feeling in the heart when you lose hope and are extremely eager but cannot get a response... This feeling is very painful, especially when hope is completely gone, humans will personally experience the unspeakable depression!

When humans first begin to despair, they will curl up in a dark and closed place and cry desperately. After that, they will begin to be afraid and hesitant about everything and everyone. For a long time, they will be trapped in the vortex alone. When humans realize that they have no hope in the future, their three views begin to collapse. The mental pain and loneliness will make humans have the idea of ​​destroying themselves and cutting off their connection with the world...

In the comic "Steins;Gate", when the male protagonist Okabe Rintaro saved Mayuri, he was deeply trapped in the darkness called "despair" because he had cut off hope!

Readers who have read the manga "Steins;Gate" after the development of the plot may not forget that in a certain episode, the protagonist Okabe Rintaro, who was tortured by "despair" and wanted to end his life to stop the "infinite cycle of not being able to save Mayuri" from continuing... At that time, Rintaro really had the idea of ​​committing suicide, wanted to cut off the connection with the whole world, and fell into the abyss of "despair"!

Although later, under the encouragement of his assistant Makise Kurisu, the protagonist Rintaro finally found a way to save Mayuri, but in the process of turning theory into practice, Rintaro ushered in another more desperate thing!

If you want to save Mayuri, you must choose to give up saving Makise Kurisu!

Someone once said that the so-called "despair" is usually not the kind of helplessness of being forced into a desperate situation, but because you have not found the hidden "hope" that comes with "despair"... In other words, hope often appears together with despair!

But in fact, only those who have truly experienced despair will understand how difficult it is to find hidden hope!

So, seeing hope but being unable to change the status quo... that is the real [despair] that makes people feel helpless!

Just like in the plot of this new episode of the manga "Steins;Gate", when the male protagonist Okabe Rintaro used the words of Naka Nizuki to vent his weakness, pain and helplessness, the light of [hope] suddenly flashed again in the abyss of [despair]!

Amanone Suzuha took the time machine again and brought a glimmer of hope to the desperate Rintaro... Rintaro, who saved the world by changing the world line, needs to save Makise Kurisu this time!

Saving Makise Kurisu... is not only a personal consideration, but also to save the world!

The twists and turns of the plot made Yoshida, who was observing the comic manuscript, excited instantly... After all, for any reader who has been observing the comic serialization to date, the painful but helpless choice of the male protagonist Okabe Rintaro in the previous episode is really too depressing!

So... this episode suddenly has this kind of bright future, whether Yoshida is a reader or an editor, he is quite satisfied!

"Ah Cheng, is this... a revelation?"

Yoshida, the editor-in-charge, speculated, looked up and secretly peeked at a certain middle school manga artist who was thinking about life, suppressed the [restlessness of the complaining soul] in his heart, and lowered his head to continue observing the manga manuscript...

For humans, there are many cruel things, because humans treat the whole world so cruelly, so the world directly or indirectly feeds back to humans is also equally cruel... No, perhaps in a sense, what the world feeds back to humans is just a reference to what humans do, and it is returned to humans in different ways, regardless of kindness and evil!

Therefore, the kindest people in the world are humans, and the cruelest... are also humans!

Even if you do something with good intentions, it will also bring unimaginable cruel results!

Making a promise but not being able to fulfill it, giving hope but not being able to complete a miracle... For people in despair, this is definitely the cruelest thing, nothing else!

Just like the personal experience of the male protagonist Okabe Rintaro in this episode of the comic manuscript...

The reappearance of Amanon Suzuha awakened Rintaro's fighting spirit, allowing this man who had originally fallen into the [abyss of despair] to struggle back from the other side again! With the information provided by Amanon Suzuha, Rintaro, who had already given up hope, found a glimmer of hope to save his assistant Makise Kurisu again...

It was precisely because of this plot that Yoshida couldn't help but slander and complain about a certain middle school cartoonist in his heart [having a change of heart], and even had a strange idea like [the cartoonist who completed this episode of the comic manuscript couldn't be a fake Hououin Kyouma]...

However, when Yoshida really continued to observe the subsequent plot, he suddenly realized that the so-called [hope]... was actually just to create a more [desperate] desperate situation, that's all!

In the second half of this episode of the comic, the protagonist Okabe Rintaro finally made up his mind and decided to save his assistant Makise Kurisu... Based on the information and analysis provided by Amanone Suzuha before, both Rintaro as the person involved and Yoshida as the observer felt that saving Makise Kurisu would be a matter of course!

However, the last part of the comic book slapped Rentaro and Yoshida hard!

"Uh... this development..." After reading the comic book, Yoshida showed an unbelievable look on his face. After hesitating for a moment, he immediately roared at a certain chuuni cartoonist, "Acheng, you are courting death, bastard!"

The reason why Yoshida lost his composure was naturally because at the end of the comic book, Rentaro, who originally wanted to save Makise Kurisu, became the culprit of Makise Kurisu's death by mistake!

If it was just like this, Yoshida might have suppressed his emotions a little because he was familiar with the bad taste of a certain chuuni cartoonist...

But the real cruelty was that in the comic, Rentaro knelt down and confided in a weak monologue after the action failed!

"Just one failure?"

"Just this one time, I already know..."

"According to the theory of world line convergence, on this world line, Makise Kurisu's [death] has become an inevitable event... That is to say, no matter what I do next, on this world line, Kurisu's death is inevitable!"

"Do you know how many times I have experienced this feeling of despair?"

...

"Now I can be sure that the comic draft of this episode was definitely drawn by you, Cheng..." Yoshida closed the comic draft fiercely, staring at a certain chuunibyou cartoonist with an ugly expression, "Because only Only people like you, Cheng, will use [hope] as bait to complete the layout of [despair]!"

"So, my cat, doing good deeds unilaterally may not always bring hope..." Looking at Yoshida's somewhat dejected look, a certain middle school cartoonist nodded with satisfaction, and sighed, "It is also likely to bring... suffocating despair!"

While bringing [hope], it will also offer complete [despair]...

Perhaps only the cartoonist Fenghuangyuan Kyoma can show this kind of devilish method of playing with people's hearts through comics!?

It is okay to have good intentions, but when doing good deeds, you must also feel sorry. Dear readers, good night~
