How can I let go of the matter of saving my stepsister?

However, even though it has been criticized, the setting of "Fate/Zero" itself, the setting of Guan Gong fighting Qin Qiong, has aroused people's curiosity and made people feel novel. But this magical girl has long been played, written, and made to death, so where is the novelty and attraction of this?

Just like the Gundam series he participated in, the first few films were brilliant, but after the craze passed, no matter how good the plots of subsequent works were, the audiences were just that group, and there was almost no fresh blood.

This is the problem with all series in the later stages, like idol activities, band dramas, and this magical girl, the audience will always be just that group of people.

Perhaps, it is the subject matter that limits this brilliant young man.

He had never looked down on Sato Yuu because of his age. On the contrary, he had praised him a lot in his words to his colleagues. Now, seeing the script in front of him, Kawase Yukihei couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

I'm afraid Sato Yu is really trapped by "love and hope".

But since I'm here, I might as well just watch the storyboards that people have put together.

Thinking of this, Yukihei Kawase opened the storyboard for the third episode.

Continuing from the first two chapters, the story continues to unfold. The blue warrior's knot that was laid out in the previous part is revealed to be resolved, the pink warrior's characterization is further strengthened, and the dialogue between the yellow warrior and the black warrior reveals more information that the black warrior is not an enemy...

It's not boring, nor is it dull, but it's just too ordinary. There's nothing explosive or unexpected.

After all, this kind of subject matter has already been explored, and there is nothing new to write about, and no matter how you write about it, it won't be surprising...

"!"

"?"

"????"

While judging like this in his mind, his fingers casually turned the pages, but Kawase Yukihei was completely stunned, his pupils trembling violently, almost frozen into a line like a frightened cat.

"what?"

Warrior Huang, she...

Blinking his eyes frantically, his originally relaxed body suddenly tensed up. Kawase Yukihei turned the page back, and then turned it over again.

"Hahaha?"

Continuously, he exclaimed in surprise at what he saw, which overturned his imagination and was so bizarre that he could never have imagined in his life.

Volume 171: Chapter Chapter . Blame it on it being too charming

yellow

warrior!!!

What Kawase Yukihei saw was an extremely bizarre storyboard that was beyond his imagination and shocked him, a man over 60, to the point that his heartbeat soared to 180.

[My body feels so light. This is the first time I have fought with such a cheerful mood.]

[Nothing to fear anymore! ]

The whole episode was set up with the blue warrior's desire to make a wish, and the pink warrior's confusion in facing the unknown world. All of this was set up because the yellow warrior, with the support of his juniors, was able to untie his knot and become braver and fight more fiercely.

The next development should be that the heroic performance of the yellow warrior further inspires the two younger generations, and the bond between the three is further deepened in this battle. After that, he influences the black warrior, recruits the red warrior, and assembles the five-color team to face the next difficulties together.

It should be so!

However, facing the witch's head whose body was bound by a ribbon but whose head suddenly stretched out and instantly lengthened in front of the human body, Warrior Huang, who had been fighting easily before, was frightened and stunned, and his head and body were separated!

Yes! Sato Yuu has been laying the groundwork for this entire episode! But what he laid the groundwork for was not the improvement of the relationship between the three, nor the further harmony of the team atmosphere, but the death of Warrior Yellow—in the most cruel way of death, a U-turn.

She hadn't become a magical girl yet, but the leader of the Blue Warrior and the Pink Warrior, the senior they both admired, the Yellow Warrior, died right in front of them.

is this real?

His tongue couldn't help licking his dry lips and teeth. He was not a beauty, and Kawase Yukihira's behavior was not glamorous. It only showed his horror and his embarrassment because he was overly surprised by the unexpected scene in front of him.

With the plot written like this, how should the story continue?

After the shock, when he was barely able to accept this scene for the first time, Kawase Yukihei thought and asked himself this.

Then he came to a depressing conclusion.

I can’t imagine how to go on!

But, if we can continue like this...

His eyes became clear, and then flashed with a strange light. His whole expression twisted for a moment and then turned into joy. Kawase Yukihira actually felt amazing interest in the bizarre development before him.

Whoosh~ Whoosh——

After exhaling two breaths, one light and one heavy, one short and one long, Kawase Yukihei did not say anything else, but continued to watch.

[You two should sign a contract with me and decide your wishes, quickly! ]

Without a moment's mourning for the death of the Yellow Warrior, the "mascot" Yanxi around the magical girl transferred ① Group: 837783853

Even Warrior Huang died in the battle. Let two novices face such a witch. Is this true?

The one who breaks the situation should be...

[There's no need for that. I'm the one who will take care of this guy! ]

The plot finally confirmed Kawase Yukihei's guess. The one who came to the rescue at this moment was the black warrior. Her abilities were a mystery. In short, it was difficult to guess her fighting style. After a series of explosions, the witch was solved.

If such a battle scene is produced, it should be of high quality and quite exciting.

However, there was no so-called sense of elation. Kawase Yukihei's heart was still concerned with the yellow warrior. The pool of mud that fell after the battle seemed to be on the yellow warrior's body.

Kawase Yukihei stared at the "mud", as if he was confirming that Warrior Yellow was really dead, and at the same time confirming that his heart, as an old painter, was dead as well.

The trophy of defeating the witch, the witch seed fell and shattered the yellow warrior's teacup, symbolizing the witch's killing of the magical girl.

The blood flowing between the witch seeds and the teacup fragments on the round table has an amazing artistic beauty, forming a beautiful picture at the cost of the actual death of a magical girl...

[Keep this scene in mind, this is what happens when you become a magical girl! ]

In the gloomy scene, the black warrior's words are even more gloomy, completely dyeing the original girl's fairy tale with an indelible chaotic black, infecting the final tone of the story.

[Give it back to her, I told you to give it back to her, this is my senior's stuff! ]

The blue warrior shouted as he had completely collapsed and still couldn't believe that the senior schoolmate he admired had died like this. Due to his limited perspective, he didn't know that the senior schoolmate had tied up the black warrior before. He just thought that she had been standing by and watching until she finally got the upper hand.

This had no effect at all and only resulted in another warning from the black warrior.

[That’s right, this thing exists for magical girls, you have no right to touch it]

Very low EQ. From the black warrior's point of view, this warning should be sincere. She really doesn't want anyone else to become a magical girl and die in the battle with the witch. However, the way she spoke was more like a mockery than a warning, and it was more like a provocation, which might push the two of them, at least the blue warrior, to become a magical girl.

Was this an oversight by Sato Yu when writing the lines, or was it intentional?

As an animator, the story has reached this point. Kawase Yukihira has such sensitivity that he will think about it. However, after turning the next page, these are no longer important.

"Eh?"

Kawase Yukihei exclaimed in surprise.

Yanxi transfer group ①: 837783853

It is laughing.

With his eyes wide open, Yukihei Kawase looked carefully and was absolutely sure that it was smiling!

She continued to recruit blue and pink warriors, and as soon as the yellow warrior died, she immediately persuaded them to wish to become magical girls...

Unusual! This mascot's actions and the look it has on its face are definitely unusual!

"Warrior Huang, will she be resurrected?"

He was still quite excited and after reading three episodes of the script in a row, he paused for a long time. When he looked up, Kawase Yukihira stared at Sato Yu and asked him.

"will not!"

As he wished, he got this cruel answer, but one that was exactly what he wanted.

It's not that he has no compassion, nor that he doesn't believe in love and hope, but in terms of the way the story is constructed, the plot has rushed to this point, and if he turns back, everything will become a joke. Therefore, Sato Yu's answer at this moment is like a reassurance to him.

Nodding, Kawase Yukihei indicated that he understood.

He already knew that Warrior Huang's death was just the beginning, and more exciting and turbulent developments were yet to come.

"Follow-up..."

I want to see the sequel!

With this thought flashing through his mind, Kawase Yukihira tried to tell him, but he soon remembered that the confidentiality agreement he signed only promised him to watch the third episode. Although he knew that if he asked now, Sato Yu would probably satisfy his wish and let him watch the subsequent stories, but, as expected...

"Sign the employment contract. I heard that you guys have a fixed hourly wage system here? I've been paid by the piece my whole life, but I didn't expect that when I'm this old, I'd have to get a fixed salary for once."

"You will be offered a very high hourly wage."

"It's good enough that I get the same hourly wage as other painters in your company. I'm just a few decades older. How is that any different from those energetic young people?

Besides, I am not participating in this project for the salary, but for the three major awards I have been dreaming of all my life, the Animation Department Award of the Cultural Affairs Bureau Art Festival, which I have not received yet. "

“Everything will come full circle this time.”

"What you said is just like what the Yellow Warrior said, 'I have nothing to fear anymore.'"

"Haha, Puella Magi Madoka Magica won't turn around, it'll just sweep everything away!"

"Okay! I hope you won't disappoint me... The contract has been signed, but where are the storyboards and scripts? Bring them here quickly!"

Just watching three episodes was enough to confirm the amazing potential of this drama, which was enough to entice him to sign the production contract.

He is not old-fashioned, but rather quite humorous. After joking with Sato Yu for a while and signing the production contract, Kawase Yukihei returned to the main topic and asked Sato Yu for the completed storyboards for the remaining four episodes, as well as the subsequent scripts.

This thing had been prepared long ago. After Kawase Yukihei asked for it, Sugino Miki handed it to him soon after.

"it is good!"

Lifting the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, Kawase Yukihei buried his head in watching again. He spent the whole afternoon reading and studying the storyboards and scripts over and over again. It was not until nightfall that he let out a long breath and left the company with satisfaction.

Then, that night, the famous painter updated his Twitter account.

[Young people are formidable. I am completely impressed by Sato Yu's new work. He is indeed a rare animation genius in a century! ]

There were no fierce words, just a statement of facts. The rhetoric of "once in a century" seemed simple considering Japan's exaggerated words of once in a thousand years or once in five thousand years. But when a famous veteran, especially a veteran painter from the national team who was once the enemy, said such words of approval, the meaning was different, and it caused quite a stir in the animation circle for a while.

At the same time, this also reveals a message.

Yukihei Kawase, who has already joined Pandia, has decided to "dishonor" the dignity of his senior painters and produce animation works under this fledgling young supervisor.

It turns out that it’s not just talk, Sato Yu’s new work can really win the three major awards!

This is the only way netizens can interpret Kawase Yukihei's joining the team. Animators who know him well and know that he has indeed passed the stage of chasing money, and the national team painters who have been making animations just to gain higher honors can only interpret it this way.

"Is that Sato?"

"It's President Mochizuki."

"Yes, I would like to consult..."

The next day, not long after arriving at the company, the landlines of Sato Yuu and Mochizuki Nanae started ringing one after another. In the afternoon, nine national team painters came to visit and watched the new storyboards together, and then...

[Ten national team painters have been gathered! 】

That afternoon, Pandia's official account sent out a tweet that immediately ignited the hot topic, directly pushing the topic to a climax, flooding the N-site animation section, and also flooding the forum tweets.

No, this shattered and crashed galactic battleship is about to be reassembled?

No, didn't Kawamura Kentaro already announce that he would be the producer of Rascal? And Katsuhisa Nohara said he would produce the second season of Sword Sanctuary, so he's giving up now?

Aren't these guys all tied up in various things? Didn't they clearly state in previous interviews that they would not participate in Sato Yuu's new work? Why are they now dropping all their current tasks one by one, even breaking their contracts, just to get into the project?

Sato Yu's project, whose name, subject matter, and PV have not been revealed, and there is no additional information except that it will continue with "Love and Hope", is really so great and awesome that it has been recognized by so many well-known painters as a sure win, at least with a high probability of winning the three major awards?

All of a sudden, everyone who paid attention to the news in the animation circle, whether audiences, painters, or staff in other positions, were full of curiosity about Sato Yu's new work.

[Please, Sato Yuu, please bring out your new work soon! ]

Following Pandia's tweet, just an hour later, similar tweets became trending on Twitter, revealing the humble side of the audience.

After "Fate/Zero", what else can Sato Yu come up with?

The audience was already looking forward to it, and now, they are even more excited and can't wait to see it.

There are many more painters who are also unable to sit still.

"I have never participated in the national team animation project before, but my resume is quite impressive and rich. I am not currently involved in animation production. Director Sato, please take a look..."

I was jealous and excited. Who said that only the artists in the national team were top artists? Many top artists did not participate at that time for various reasons. Now they saw that ten people had joined, or they had already communicated with those ten people privately and received exciting news. Now they all called in for consultation.

"The production team will not be expanded to 40 people now, right? It's not a salary issue, but for producing a seasonal series, isn't this number of artists a bit redundant?"

In one morning, facing more and more names of painters written down on the white paper at hand, and scanning the names of several industry celebrities whose names alone could make the audience instantly orgasm, and who would directly announce that the animation series they would supervise would become the dominant one of the season, Mochizuki Nanae couldn't help but shudder.
