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

After all, no matter how popular it is, the volume is just too large.

From this perspective, rather than the number of people = fame, it is his influence in the hearts of the audience and the degree of praise that determines the growth of his fame.

After all, compared to funny anime like "Azure Blue" which is not very good at showing off, tear-jerking comics like "5 Centimeters per Second" are more popular, making people praise it sincerely and recognize it more.

As expected, the next anime is going to be made about xx?

After thinking about it, Sato You finally shook his head.

Looking at the fame value on the panel, he felt worried.

It's rising too fast.

It may sound unbelievable at first, but in fact, Sato Yuma is troubled by the fact that his fame is increasing too quickly.

The first stage mission is 50,000 fame points, the second stage is 500,000, so the third stage will most likely be 5 million. According to the current growth rate of fame points, Sato Yu estimates that after "5 Centimeters per Second" ferments for a while, the fame points should be around 4 million.

I hope it is four million, and I must stop completely when it reaches more than four million!

Sato Yu shouted in his heart.

Because, Sato Yu noticed it from the end of the first stage of the mission to the beginning of the second stage of the mission.

Time does not accumulate.

There were still a few days left in the previous phase of the mission, but when the second phase of the mission began, the system was directly reset to zero and a new nine-month count began.

So based on this, if we skip stages...

The fourth stage is 50 million. If he really skips it, he may face the dilemma of having to increase his fame value from 5 million to 50 million in nine months or at most a year!

Just thinking of that horrifying scene, Sato You broke out in a cold sweat.

Let’s see what the new tasks released by the system are after the settlement. If it is really as he expected, then he may need to control the points.

Carefully weigh the fame that the works that can be copied can gain in this world, and make appropriate animations at the appropriate stage...

Thinking of this, the difficulty of completing the task seems to have increased again.

But, if you want to accomplish the miracle of reversing life and death, this is what should be done.

The melancholy and fearful things came to his mind again. Sato You quickly shook his head, and then he checked in front of the mirror again to confirm that he was clean and energetic. Sato You took the elevator and went to the ward on the eighth floor where Qiong was.

Thinking that Qiong, who had been closely following his movements, might have watched "5 Centimeters per Second", Sato Yu took half a day off and came to the hospital to visit her early in the morning.

It was indeed different from the evenings after get off work in the past. At this time, if he wanted to see Qiong, he would have to wait for a while.

"Sato! You came to see Kyon this morning."

When he arrived at the ward, he was told that Qiong was undergoing a routine physical examination and that he would have to wait a while if he wanted to meet her. He was sitting in the ward chatting and laughing with other children when the nurse Chiharu Oeda rushed over to talk to him after hearing the news.

After greeting him and staring at his cheek for a while, Chiharu Oden narrowed her eyes into crescents and smiled sweetly, looking very beautiful.

"Is that funny? My hair is messy? Or something..."

Oden Chiharu's laughter was so abrupt that Sato You thought for a moment that something was wrong with him. But upon hearing what he said, he just shook his head and then sat very close to him, smiling bitterly.

"Sato's comics were very popular. When I woke up in the morning, I saw the link that Nurse Okita sent in the group chat. Some people asked me, 'Ah, Sato Yu, is it that Sato Yu?' So I read the comics.

It is a very good comic with a comfortable style of painting. The story is also very interesting. The farewell at the end is a classic, just like the impressive ending of a famous novel.

Sato is really amazing. I knew it before, but I feel it even more now.

But... I thought so, but when I saw you, I immediately thought of it again - what? Sato is not what is said on the Internet. He doesn't have any unforgettable love experience. He is still a young boy. "

"Although Miss Oden is older than me, she is only a few years older. You have no right to call me a brat."

"If you would say something like that, you are just a brat."

After all, if not, what Sato Yu should have said at this time was "Even I also had a deep love affair, but Miss Oden doesn't know about it."

Having once again confirmed the purity of Sato Yuu's love life, Oden Chiharu's smile became even brighter.

Staring at the boy who was spending his beautiful youth, which should have been spent enjoying love, on his sister, and who was busy painting in order to fulfill their promise, she gently said something that Sato Yuu had not expected.

"In fact, the so-called first love is just a metaphor. What Sato really wants to draw is the story between you and Qiong."

Volume 107: Chapter Chapter . Association

About the reason for drawing "5 Centimeters per Second".

Sato Yu just wanted to have a comic that could be linked with "Azure Blue", leverage the fans attracted by the animation to amplify his power, gain some fame so as to complete the phased tasks and heal Dome.

Now, the collaboration has achieved good results, which makes Sato Yu happy, but others do not know Sato Yu's real thoughts. When they look at the comics and then look at them as brothers and sisters, they can't help but make associations.

Although it deviates from Sato Yu's original intention, there is indeed a coincidence between the content of the comics and the bumpy lives of the brothers and sisters.

Hiding the plot of first love and putting aside the relationship and identity of lovers, Qiong is like the heroine Mingli, and Sato Yu is like the hero Takaki in the story.

As siblings who grew up together in the Sato family, the relationship between Sato Yu and his sister Kyon is no weaker than that of the protagonists of the Five Seconds story. In fact, it is much stronger.

However, a sudden illness separated them, separating them on the boundary between life and death.

Sato Yuu, the brother, wants Qiong not to give up and to fight to live on. Qiong, the sister, once wanted to give up, but she just held on and counted the days waiting for the day of death for her family. Because they are worried about each other, the two are never able to really confide in each other.

The distance between hearts has already made Qiong far away from Sato Yuu.

Sato Yu was unwilling to give up, so he kept chasing after her, made an agreement with her to make the best animation, and then plunged into the animation industry. After overcoming numerous difficulties and dangers, he finally caught up with Qiong, which shortened the distance between the two brothers and sisters' hearts and brought them into close contact again.

Is this plot very similar to the one in the comic where the protagonist Takaki changes trains at one stop after another in a snowy night, fearing that Akari might leave him, but still determined to rush to her side while enduring the pain and tears?

During this period, Sato Yu encountered hardships and had to stop temporarily at the station. While waiting for the departure, he felt the coldness of the night and the snow that almost froze his bones. Of course, Sato Yu hesitated and wavered.

I have also thought about this: would it really make Qiong happy if I stubbornly tied her down like this?

So sometimes I would think: [Qiong, if you had already gone home...it would be great.]

Thinking of taking Qiong on his final journey before death, this was probably what Sato Yu, who was almost unable to hold on at that time, was thinking about. In the end, when he was at his wit's end, he respected Qiong's wishes and watched her close her eyes with a smile.

But the new and stronger Sato Yu continued to move forward on the train. After passing one station after another, he finally came to Qiong's side again. He allowed her to cry in his arms with a vulnerable look, and held her tightly in his arms, giving her his warmth and letting her listen to his beating heartbeat.

This pursuit paid off. Under the embrace of this love, Qiong's illness was miraculously reversed from stage III to stage II, and she once again gained hope of life.

But perhaps everything is just temporary. As for the terminal illness that Qiong suffers from, there is no complete solution even in the top medical centers in Neon. Everything can only be left to fate, or we can only pray for a miracle to happen again.

So they embraced and separated, and once again had to embark on a long journey. In order to treat Qiong, he had to continue making animation and reduce the time he spent with her. He had to go to Kagoshima, which was so far away that it seemed as far away as the horizon. Sato Yuya felt sympathetic.

[How to treasure the warmth of Qiong and her soul, and where to take them?

I know very well that we may not be able to be together forever after this.

That huge life, that tiny time, these are inevitably blocked in front of us. 】

At the end of the first episode of "5 Centimeters per Second", the sad inner monologue of the male protagonist Takaki Tono seems to be equally applicable to Sato Yuu, or even more appropriate.

In the days that followed, in the future that had not yet begun, Sato Yuya was up and down all the way, suppressing what he wanted to say in his heart, all stored in his "cell phone" with no recipient address.

He waited and waited, waiting for the day when Qiong really got better, and then he would tell him these words.

Does such a future exist? Sato Yuu probably has no idea and is also afraid.

So he sketched a beautiful dream on the drawing paper. He dreamed of Mingli, and that his Qiong grew up and became a beautiful girl. He got rid of his inferiority and sensitivity, became optimistic and cheerful, became positive, and used all his strength to cross his life.

Then she met her lover and laughed in his arms, with the dazzling ring on her finger glittering, symbolizing her happiness at that time.

At this time, Sato Yuu can walk past Qiong, look back, and see Qiong walking forward without regrets. Then he smiles, relieved, and leaves freely. He also puts his mind at ease and truly faces his own life seriously...

It's a coincidence, but if it is mapped, it seems to make sense?

It doesn't matter what Sato Yu, the comic author, thinks, or how simple his ideas are, other people can't help but make such associations.

The story is a reflection of the writer's soul. It is impossible to clearly know whether Sato Yu borrowed the works of others, so we can only make such inferences.

This is the case with the nurse Chiharu Oda, and perhaps the child Qiong will also find her own shadow in the comics, the shadow of her beloved brother.

"It's good to be relieved, but what exactly were you thinking in the end, Sato? You didn't want to draw Kyon...Miri's turning back, or their reunion. You had to have an ending that seemed to be relieved, with both of them having a good life, but the overall atmosphere was still sad?"

The ending was so regrettable that it didn't feel perfect. Thinking back on it, Chiharu Oden complained to Sato Yu.

But she was just complaining and nagging. She was not as indignant as Ooya Hideki and Ameyū Hiromi, nor would she hide in the bathroom and secretly wipe her tears like Ameyū Ryunosuke.

She doesn't have anyone in particular that she wants to miss, she has experienced unforgettable separations, and she hasn't had her first love...or rather, she is still in her first love, which doesn't make the comic overly sad.

“It’s always a tragedy, always a regrettable story that impresses me, so I paint it that way.”

"A cartoonist's artistic disease? Sato also has such moments, but it's too inconsiderate. I have to explain it to Qiong right away."

A regrettable story will indeed make the audience remember it longer, which is the secret to making literary and artistic works remain evergreen in the hearts of the audience. However, such an ending may also hurt the heart of Qiong, a sensitive girl who is seriously ill and will be separated from her brother at some point in time.

Feeling that Sato Yu's painting skills were not good, Oda Chiharu reminded her to communicate well with Qiong.

It seemed that she came over to talk to Sato Yuyan in her busy schedule just to say these things. After giving her instructions, Oden Chiharu continued to work on her nursing work - it was the busiest time, and she actually didn't have much time to waste.

"elder brother!"

After that, after waiting for a long time, a clear call rang in his ears. Sato You reached back and immediately grabbed Qiong's slender arm.

Pulling her closer and sitting her down, Sato You carefully looked at her face which was filled with a happy smile.

It was no different from the past. Although pale, his eyes were not red or swollen, and there were no obvious signs of crying.

“I didn’t cry after reading the comics.”

Qiong was most understanding of Sato Yu's behavior, and she raised her eyebrows and said playfully, smiling unexpectedly.

Volume 108: Chapter Chapter . Qiong's Double Standards

A regrettable ending is an objective necessity.

But people always tend to associate things, and the ending is just a relief but not a happy one. Will Qiong have any thoughts because of this?

Sato Yu was worried about this, but looking at Qiong's appearance, this "love-naive" little girl didn't seem to have any different emotions because of "5 Centimeters per Second".

"As for me, I'm not angry about the ending."

"That's it."

With his heart at ease, Sato You's face looked much better.

Qiong also laughed at this. She crawled under her brother's arms and threw herself into his arms, clinging softly.

"In the end, facing the separation, Takaki Tono was able to turn around and leave with relief and start his new life. This ending really makes me happy."

Mingli corresponds to her, and Toono Takaki corresponds to her brother. Qiong does not think that Sato Yu did not add her own feelings when creating comics, which confirms Chiharu Oda's guess. This is also how she interprets "5 Centimeters per Second".

And because of this, she was happy, even though she was leaning against Sato Yu's abdomen, pursing her lips and showing a sad look where he couldn't see her, Qiong still thought so in her heart.

The patient was not shown the results of the examination, but she was very good at observing people's expressions and from the doctor's gloomy face she could tell that her condition had worsened again.

Your health condition keeps fluctuating from good to bad, which is not a good sign.

She watches her brother's animations every day, reads the praises of him on the Internet, occasionally chats with the haters, and then waits for her brother to come to the hospital to see her after get off work, chat and snuggle with her. Such a fulfilling and happy time will end one day.

Qiong had already made such preparations, she was just afraid that Sato Yu was not prepared.

But the appearance of the "5 Centimeters per Second" comics excited her, and she thought it was a signal.

It was Sato Yu who told her through the comics that after she left, he could let it go and would still stride forward and move positively towards tomorrow.

Therefore, the problem that Sato Yu was most worried about, that the ending of the comic might hurt Qiong's sensitive and fragile heart, actually did not exist from the beginning, and the direction of his worry was even the opposite.

"Are you happy... Just be not angry."

Sato Yu was completely relieved, feeling his tense body suddenly relax, but Qiong was malicious, saying that he was just breathing heavily and that he had only said half of his words.

“But I’m still really angry.”

"what?"

"Pfft~ The heroine Mingli is poorly portrayed. Even if they were destined to miss each other, why did they have to draw her marrying someone else? Seeing her showing such a bright smile in the arms of another man really makes me feel bad."

"Miri has to live her own life too. After thirteen years of separation, it's understandable that she starts a new relationship. Her happiness can also encourage the male protagonist who has always cared about her. There's no need to blame her."

"To me, that's downright infidelity."

She crawled out of Sato Yu's arms, pouting and glaring at Sato Yu, her words spoke very firmly.

"If that's the case, then didn't the protagonist Takaki Tono also date his colleague Mizuno for three years? So he was also unfaithful?"

"That's different!"

Considering Takaki Toono as the reflection of Sato Yuu in the comics, loving the person and loving his whole life as well, the girl Qiong shows her extreme double standards.

"Tono Takaki is so gentle and excellent, it's only natural that she should be liked. Even if Akari, Hanae, and Mizuno, the heroines in these three episodes, are all in love with her, and I think it's only natural for her to have a large harem."
