2d Empire

Unlike novels, which allow readers to imagine for themselves, comics are a way of expressing novels or storylines on paper, so some small details are extremely important.

So even if it is a pet, it must be confessed.Even pets can move events forward.

And this situation made Horiuchi Marue frowned.

He knew why Ayano Iida had questioned just now, and he didn't know whether Shiina Mashiro's value was worth cultivating, because it was too difficult to choose.

First of all, there is the issue of painting style. As long as Shiina Mashiro understands and incorporates some shortcomings, then this magnificent painting style will definitely shock the manga world.

That's right, let Shiina Mashiro's painting style show shortcomings, that is, the painting is not good enough.

As a cartoonist, everyone hopes that their painting style is perfect, but when they really see perfection, Horiuchi Marue knows that too perfect is the biggest shortcoming after all.

The most important thing is Shiina Mashiro's title as a world-class talented painter. He even opened his own art exhibition and took a photo with the British Prime Minister. His international status is very high.

Such a person who gets involved in the Japanese manga industry will definitely cause a sensation. At that time, Shueisha will operate a little bit, and it will definitely make Shiina Mashiro famous.

Of course, comics still rely on strength to win after all, and the momentary fame may fall even deeper in time.

If it was in the past, even if Shiina Mashiro was a world-class talented painter Horiuchi Marue, he wouldn't care.

But in this situation, the animated version of "Reaper" is about to be cut in half, and he needs the injection of fresh blood.

And this blood needs to be able to completely save or stabilize "Weekly Shonen Jump".

"This Shiina Mashiro, you can focus on cultivating it. If the other party can get rid of the shortcoming of not being able to tell stories."

After thinking about it for a while, Horiuchi Marue said.

……

Chapter 39 Habits of Ayano Iida

Horiuchi Marue left before the meeting was over.

In fact, he should have dealt with some things after receiving the call from NHK TV, but until now, he still hopes that there will be some new works or newcomers that can surprise him.

As for Iida Ayano's newcomer Shiina Mashiro, although he was surprised, he didn't feel any joy.

Because the advantages of Shiina Mashiro are very obvious, but the disadvantages are even more obvious, and it is basically impossible to save. If the other party will never tell a story, then the other party will never be able to appear in "Weekly Shonen Jump".

The reason why Iida Ayano was allowed to focus on training was because of the other party's style of painting.

As long as the other party has the ability to tell stories, and can even find a famous artist to cooperate with, it is not impossible to become popular. Coupled with the other party's name, it is definitely a new star.

It's just that the comic style is important, but the storyline is the most important.

If the style of painting decides everything, then Shiina Mashiro will not fail the Newcomer Award, so Horiuchi Marue is actually quite disappointed.

Of course, he can't put his hope on Mashiro Shiina, he only hopes that Shueisha's public relations can continue to support the animated version of "Reaper".

And when Horiuchi Marue left, the atmosphere in the meeting room became more relaxed.

Of course, it is relative to say it is easy.

The animated version of "Reaper" was cut in half. This is a sensation in Japan and even the world. No matter how the manga is criticized, the manga and animation that have been serialized for more than ten years definitely carry the youth of a generation. up.

If this news is released, there will definitely be a frenzy.

And Japan will bear the brunt of it, but TV stations don't look at the popularity of your comics, they look at the ratings, and "Reaper" has indeed reached a sluggish level.

That's why the TV station completely announced that "Reaper" will be cut in half. This is heartbreaking news.

At this time, although the editors recommend their favorite comics as usual, everyone has a feeling of panic in their hearts, and of course they can control this emotion.

But Ryo Yamazaki also took a look and knew that everyone was a little absent-minded.

As soon as the meeting was over, everyone returned to their offices.

Iida Ayano, on the other hand, walked towards the first floor as usual, wanting to see who would contribute.

This is a small habit of hers, and that's the reason why the editors looked at her when Horiuchi Marue asked if there were any newcomers recently.

She likes to pick out newcomers very much, and she has a feeling of picking up leaks.

Of course, she hasn't missed any talents until now. You must know that if you want to be a cartoonist, most of you start as a cartoon assistant.

And those assistants of well-known cartoonists are the ones that the editors recruit.Because these manga assistants are next to the manga artist all the year round, they definitely know more about the affairs in the manga circle and the submission of manuscripts than laymen.

And if they debut as cartoonists, they must be fully prepared and confident. In this case, the quality of the manuscript can be guaranteed.

There are too many people who contribute directly like this, who are not well-known in the comic circle, or even draw comics on a whim, every day. Maybe those who have just been editors will feel that some newcomers can really come out. Genius cartoonist.

But after a long time, this kind of fantasy is too unrealistic, maybe it really exists, but I don't know when it will appear.

Like Iida Ayano, who joined the editor two years ago, she has been looking for new people every day for a year and a half.

Of course, she is not looking for newcomers without thinking, she only accepts two newcomers every day, and if she does not pass the manuscript, she just gives up.

This habit has been maintained for a year and a half, and Iida Ayano's experience has also let other editors know that it is really unrealistic to find good quality manuscripts among these newcomers.

Of course, it's not that Ayano Iida hasn't found newcomers in a year and a half. On the contrary, she really has good quality manuscripts, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to persevere.But only good.

There is only one such wonderful thing as Shiina Mashiro.Moreover, the other party was discovered when she was awarded the Newcomer Award. One year later, the other party's storytelling ability has not improved, which almost made her a little desperate.

When I came to the first floor, I routinely molested the front desk every day, "Sister Xiaocang, is there any idiot harassing you today?"

"Senior Iida, stop making fun of him." Yuko Ogura blushed slightly, and Ayano Iida went downstairs every day, and she also got to know him well, so even though she called her senior, she seemed intimate.
