The online battlefield, which was originally full of gunpowder, was inexplicably more cheerful amidst the "Yeah".
In this way, time slowly entered December.Autumn has passed, and what comes with winter is an increasingly strong atmosphere of the New Year.
In mid-December, a small episode happened in Kazama Xi's studio.
Zhicheng real person resigned.
It is not accurate to say that he left the job. Strictly speaking, a cartoonist assistant can only be regarded as a part-time job, and there is no stability.
Generally speaking, when a manga is cut in half or finished, the assistant who helped the manga will start to find a new home, or launch an attack on professional manga artists.
Of course, many assistants will resign from the comic studio halfway, and start to try their career path, contributing to major comic magazines and so on.
Zhicheng Zhenren belongs to this category.
He came to Fengjianxi's studio with the purpose of learning.As a serialized manga artist, neither he nor Aki Takino could be assistants all the time.A passionate young man like Zhicheng must continue to chase his dreams.
In this regard, Kazama Xi also readily accepted and offered her blessings.
Also resigned at the same time was Guiye Yashu who helped in Wushan Cloud Studio.
The two have been friends since they were young, and they both have the same dream.In terms of the compatibility of the partners, there may not be a combination that can surpass this pair among the combination of cooperative comics in the industry.
Before the real Zhicheng was hospitalized and his debut work died, there was indeed a little gap between the two.But after two months of exploring in different fields, they also knew that the other party was not easy, so they finally got together again.
Thus, the 'real man Yashu' who had disappeared for nearly half a year came back to life again.
...........
Back in the studio in the old-fashioned apartment building, Aki Aki and Zhicheng couldn't help feeling deeply moved.
This is where their dreams began.Two months ago, the two lived and ate here. This small studio can be said to have carried the most unforgettable experience in their lives.
I haven't been here for two months. Although the things in the studio remain the same, there is still some strangeness mixed with the familiarity.
Standing in front of the bookshelf, looking at the three separate volumes of "Detective Strange Records" on the shelf, Zhicheng took them out and stroked the cover.But it still didn't open, and put it back again.
Master Zhicheng and Aki Guino sat back on the sofa and chatted.
The friends haven't seen each other for two months, so naturally they have a lot to say.The content of the chat is naturally the interesting things they met in Wushan Yunhe Fengjianxi's studio.
Talking about experience, the topic naturally shifted to the interesting ideas of comics.
"Really, I have thought of a lot of interesting ideas during this time, and I can't wait to turn these ideas into pictures."
Seeing Guiye Yashu happily appealing to the ideas he had accumulated in the past two months, Zhicheng showed a nostalgic expression.
As if seeing Zhicheng's expression, Aki Aki stopped to speak.
"What's wrong? A real person."
"nothing..."
Master Zhicheng shook his head and said sincerely:
"I just thought it would be great to be able to paint with you."
The natural tacit understanding of being with friends makes Zhicheng feel very at ease.
One more thing...Zhicheng's idea is interesting, as usual.Most of all, it's normal.
Discussing ideas has become a heart problem for the real Zhicheng in the past two months.
The atmosphere in Kazama Xi's studio is very good. After finishing the work, a group of assistants always discuss interesting ideas together.
When an idea is put forward, someone will help touch the planning and complete the setting.
The atmosphere is good, but the content is very wrong.
Because of the ideas put forward by the people at Kazama Xi Studio, the supplementary settings will always develop towards a certain style.This will always make the real Zhicheng, although he participated in it, feel a sincere sense of being out of place.
Hearing Zhicheng's words, Guiye Yashu paused and scratched his head in embarrassment.
He is not the kind of person who is good at expressing his heart, so he changed the subject again:
"By the way, our new work should also draw a story of revenge in the last days. With Xi Jun's "Flame Fist" as the goal, we will create a work that can compete with it."
"It just so happens that you have helped Mr. Xi in the studio of "Flame Fist", so you must have a lot of experience and opinions on this."
Hearing Guiye Yashu's words, Zhicheng's expression changed suddenly, as if he had thought of some terrifying memory.
A picture appeared in his mind.
The girl stretched out her right fist.
Chapter 230 The Story of Abandoning Hatred
The relationship between cartoonists and assistants is not simply a part-time job and employment relationship.The current Kanna country manga assistant is a hybrid model of traditional apprentices and modern social animals.
The so-called apprentices, in the past, were technical assistants who lived and ate at the master's house, learned techniques from the master, helped out, and received some pocket money.The current way of cultivating newcomers in the comics industry is to send new cartoonists to work as assistants for old cartoonists.
The compatibility between assistants and cartoonists is very important, after all, there is a relationship of inheritance and learning between the two.
Many assistants who have worked under the hands of professional cartoonists will have the style of these "masters" more or less after they become professionals.
Take Fujimoto as an example. Several of Fujimoto's assistants are basically as out-of-the-box as him.After releasing the short manga "look back", Fujimoto also expressed his gratitude to the assistants who participated in this work.
The more famous one is Toyama Hanakin, whose style is very similar to that of Fujimoto.Whether it is plot conception, character design style, grid composition, or thought expression, it is full of a strong sense of sight.
This is a great example of compatibility between cartoonist and assistant.
As for the bad ones...
The famous old thief-level cartoonist Guitou Mohong and his assistant are extreme examples of poor compatibility.
During the serialization of "Star Princess", one of the masterpieces of Ghost Headed Old Thief, his assistant was responsible for portraying one of the characters.
This assistant likes this character very much. It can be understood that he regards this character as his own daughter, and it can be said that he has devoted a lot of effort to it.
The author who is called the old thief is somewhat cruel, and the character in charge of this assistant in the story of the old thief has a tragic end.
It's similar to the example where Zhicheng really likes Himeno very much, and Kazama Yuki let this character receive a lunch box in a blink of an eye.However, Ji Ye had a suitable place to die, he died heroically, and he died without sloppiness.
But unlike Himeno's death, the assistant's favorite character died by being tortured.
So, when the assistant saw the ending of the character, he broke with Mo Hong angrily, and gave himself a pseudonym - Abgrund. Abgrund, which means hell in German.
Then the assistant switched careers to draw doujin, allowing this favorite character to live happily in his own pen.
Closer to home.
If the cartoonist and the assistant get along well, then naturally there will be no problem.But if the compatibility is too bad, it will be a torture for the assistant himself.
Seeing the sudden change in his friend's face, Aki Takano panicked and asked quickly:
"What's wrong? A real person."
But Zhicheng did not explain, but shook his head and said:
"For the new work, let's not go to the theme of the end of the world."
"To be honest, regarding the new work, I want to draw a manga that is truly healing, full of love, and full of yearning for life."
...............
As a participant in the comic creation, the assistant naturally needs to know and respond to the follow-up story of the comic ahead of the reader.As for the readers, there is only expectation for the follow-up.
Back to "Flame Fist".
"The Chainsaw Man" is an absurd story, with skin in the middle of abuse, although there are depressing plots in it.But the out-of-the-ordinary character design and the neurotic literary drama largely dissipated this depressive atmosphere.
However, "Flame Fist" is just the opposite. What it plays is the truth, from the depression and numbness at the beginning of the story to the current story.It can be said that the despair of the end times is vividly reflected.
But the current story is much more relaxed. At least the readers see hope and a sliver of redemption.
In order to survive, Beicheng created the imaginary enemy of the Ice Witch under Yoda's deliberate promotion.The residents of Beicheng have been living in this lie since then, under the guidance of God, in the last days.
After Beicheng was destroyed, a new "Beicheng" based on lies emerged.
The efforts of those who were saved by Agni came together to form the village and established the 'Yan Fist Cult'.made Agni their god.
Leaving aside the process, in this last days, this is a rare mode of mutual redemption
The slaves had hope of survival because of Agni.And Agni also has a reason to continue living because of the slave.
Even the soldiers who were originally from Beicheng came to the village and wanted to join the Yanquan Sect.
For these former enemies, after the double identity change, Agni began to advocate giving up hatred.
And it was also through the mouths of these soldiers who came to join the Yanquan sect that Agni learned of the whereabouts of Dema, the enemy who had burned the village and killed his sister.
"If the initial main line of the story is revenge, then here is the beginning of the sublimation of the main line. During the Battle of Bay City before, Agni had already let go of his hatred, and the story after that should be about how to let go of his hatred. "
"A story that begins with hatred must end with hatred disappearing. I think this should be the story Mr. Yu Biechao wants to tell."
"Just like Teacher Yu Biechao's creative concept, only in the dark can we see the real light. In this "Flame Fist", the teacher is still implementing this point."
"The last days are dark, Beicheng is dark, and looking forward to death is dark."
"The redemption of the slaves is the light, and it is the light when everyone hugs together to keep warm in the last days. It is the light that Agni finds his original heart."
"And, letting go of hatred and finding the motivation to live is the light."
"To be honest, the story here has given me a feeling that it is about to end. Just like the previous "Magic Circle", in the depth and darkness of the early stage, Yuanshen appeared at the last moment to bring salvation. Here too, it has begun to break through the darkness and show the moment of redemption."
"I don't know how the story will end. Maybe because of the previous Ice Witch, Yoda who was taken away can solve the plight of the earth entering the ice age. Or maybe the end of the world will continue to exist, and Agni will become the hero of the end of the world. The only torch."
"No matter what the ending is, I think this must be a story about redemption in the last days. This may be the gentleness of Yubiechao."
"The New Year is coming soon, and the next chapter is the last one of this year. It should be about the reconciliation between Agni and Dema."
"The content of this talk should be mainly about literary drama, needless to say, the teacher's literary drama is always profound. Let's look forward to what kind of wonderful New Year gift Teacher Yubiechao will bring us."
A netizen with the ID of 'Never break the anti-gentle and elegant gentleman' posted a post on the forum again.
