A middle school cartoonist

Without wings that can soar freely in the sky, without fangs and claws that can hunt and kill real objects, humans...

are born weak!

However, it is such weak people who have continued civilization in wars, and have continued to multiply from ancient times to the present day without dying out!

Although humans are born weak, at the critical moment, there are always some people who, contrary to their previous cowardice and weakness, show a resolute and courageous side and burst out with powerful strength... or the so-called [heart of the strong]!

So the continuation of mankind is not accidental... but inevitable!

In the manga "Steins;Gate", the male protagonist Okabe Rintaro is such a human!

From the beginning of the manga, Rintaro, who is hopeless at the end of the second year of middle school, is not like the protagonists in other manga, who have something to make readers like... At least before the real plot of the manga begins, Rintaro's [severe second year of middle school] setting can only make readers feel [pleasure] from his clumsy words and deeds like a clown to please the audience!

It is said that the audience who laugh at the clown's performance on the stage, in a sense, are like a certain Mapo priest, opening the door to the "new world of joy" in their hearts... Well, let's not discuss the despicable degree of human nature here for the time being!

But when the manga "Steins;Gate" entered the plot of "God's Turn", all of Rentaro's extremely second-rate words and deeds, as well as all the persecution delusions he had in the past, gradually became a reality...

Perhaps most readers will be fascinated by the way the manga plot unfolds when they first see such a plot turn, and rarely pay attention to Rentaro's transformation... At least when they first observe the manga!

In the early stages of research and development, Rentaro received threatening emails... At that time, Rentaro just had a bad feeling, and that "mysterious ominous premonition" was soon diluted by the success and joy brought by the research!

When Mayuri died in front of Rintaro for the first time, Rintaro was truly terrified... However, at that time, Rintaro was only stimulated by Mayuri's death and witnessed the fear of the passing of life, not the fear of "I actually developed such a terrifying machine"!

When Rintaro performed "time jumps" again and again to save Mayuri, and struggled in despair again and again in failure... Rintaro finally understood his weakness and realized his incompetence in the seemingly endless cycle!

"Lessons without pain are meaningless, because people will not gain without sacrifice... However, when you overcome this pain, you will gain a strong heart that will not succumb to anything! Yes, a heart like steel!"

Just as the conclusion of the final chapter of "Fullmetal Alchemist" said, after experiencing powerlessness, despair and decadence again and again, Rintaro has a resolute and courageous heart of steel!

Therefore, when faced with the difficult choice of [Mayuri and the assistant can only choose one], although Rentaro struggled several times and hesitated again and again, when he had to make the final choice, he was still able to muster up the courage to choose and accept the consequences that followed... From this point alone, Rentaro has indeed changed!

Although he still speaks meaningless words, as the only protagonist who can retain his memory in the change of the world line, behind the hoarse cry, there is a steel heart that can endure the pain!

The final episode of the manga "Steins;Gate" is the stage to witness Rentaro's resolute and courageous side!

From the failed action of saving the tsundere assistant, Rentaro, who was originally desperate, received help from his future self! Under the prompting of his future self, he finally found a way to save the tsundere assistant...

There is no need to change the established facts, but try to deceive!

Deceive yourself who witnessed the whole incident at that time, deceive... the whole world!

Whether it is a comic or a novel, the moment that can make the observer's blood boil the most is the moment when the protagonist counterattacks from despair and darkness to the light!

So, when Yoshida saw that Rentaro finally found a way to save the arrogant assistant in the comic manuscript, he couldn't help but shout out excitedly... Of course, because of the behavior of [suddenly making a sound to scare a certain chuuni cartoonist], Yoshida had to accept some suggestions full of bad taste from a certain chuuni cartoonist, and atone for his sins by letting the other party get [pleasure]! !

There are still some unfinished comics of "Steins; Gate" in his hand, but Yoshida is not in a hurry to continue reading. Instead, he stares at a certain chuuni cartoonist who is writing and drawing on the table with a look of surprise...

"My beloved cat, is there something wrong? Considering that I am in a good mood today... Approved!" Although the chuuni cartoonist did not look up, he could feel Yoshida's suspicious eyes... Don't underestimate the demon god Hououin Kyouma who has mastered [intuition]!

"…This is not your style, Cheng!" Yoshida said this after hesitating for a long time!

"Huh? My beloved cat, what are you talking about? What's not my style?" A certain chuunibaku manga artist finally stopped what he was doing, looked up at Yoshida, and asked in confusion, "Although I admit that your bizarre way of asking questions did successfully divert my attention... but my beloved cat, you should understand what I said, right? If you don't have a reasonable explanation, I will consider extending your [suspension] time today!"

"The ending of the manga "Steins;Gate"... is a happy ending for everyone, right!?" Although he was asking a certain chuunibaku manga artist again, Yoshida's tone was quite firm! "Although I haven't seen the ending yet, according to your previous foreshadowing, the ending should be that Rentaro successfully rescued his assistant..."

"So, my beloved cat, are you showing off your poor IQ?" A certain chuunibaku manga artist waved his hand to interrupt the other party and mocked him bluntly, "By the way, the plot of the last episode has almost been finished, and my beloved cat, you actually only figured out the ending now..."

"It is indeed a happy ending...?" Yoshida heard that the chuunibaku manga artist did not deny it, and a complicated look appeared on his face. He sighed again, "It's really not like Acheng's style! According to your personality, Acheng, wouldn't the ending be the kind of [depressing] type that asks readers to send razor blades? You actually designed a happy ending..."

"Hey, hey, hey, my beloved cat, I can't pretend that I didn't hear this!" A certain chuunibaku manga artist was quite dissatisfied with Yoshida's obvious [cognitive impairment]! "What do you mean by 'I can actually design a happy ending'... Is there anything wrong with me drawing like this?"

"Of course!" Yoshida said as if it was a matter of course, which made a certain chuunibaku manga artist very angry! "Acheng, you have serialized so many crazy and hateful plots, and now you suddenly serialize a comic with a happy ending... Don't you think this is very inconsistent?"

A crazy person like you suddenly has a conscience and wants to whitewash... Humph! It's just wishful thinking!

In fact, what Yoshida wanted to say was originally supposed to be like this...

But considering the strength and bad taste of a certain chuunibaku manga artist, the editor-in-chief of a certain weekly magazine decisively chose a more euphemistic way of expression!
