What a good animated film needs in the early stage is animation supervision, animation script and character design.

This aspect of character design can be ignored, because many shots of Higashinoji's "Midnight Ring" can be taken out for the animation staff to participate.

Then the most important thing before us is animation supervision and animation script.

Animation script, also known as script in Japan, is also the so-called storyboard script.

For example, in Higashino Tsukasa's "The Ring", Sadako is actually left-handed, so the subsequent painters must be careful not to draw Sadako as right-handed.

As for having Higashinoji vomit the entire animated movie by himself...

This is undoubtedly unrealistic.

Animated movies are produced in about an hour and a half for shorter ones, and two hours for longer ones. Sometimes seven or eight shots pass by in one second - it would take Higashino an hour to draw more precisely by himself.

This is just one second of work.

You asked Higashinoji to vomit out the entire animated movie...? Even printers are not that fast.

So Higashinoji can only do a good job in the early stage of the plot.

Among them, the animation script aspect is something that Higashinoji naturally wants to win. (The scripts used by voice actors are adapted by special screenwriters, so Higashinoji doesn't have to worry about it).

After all, "Midnight Ring" is his own work, so he naturally doesn't want other script writers to come in and completely change the plot of "Midnight Ring" - after all, this is Japan, and in the previous life, "Midnight Ring"

"The adaptations of the later parts have already sounded the alarm for Higashinoji.

So when Hosokawa Koharu said this, Higashinoji was stunned for a moment, but quickly replied: "I think I can give it a try."

He does lack experience in animation script production, but one thing is worth two. Although he has no experience, as long as he gives it a try, Higashinoji still feels that he can do it.

After all, in the system, ‘your art talent in your previous life enables you to quickly master any painting and painting-related techniques.’ Talent is not a vegetarian.

And after all, the production of storyboards is actually not complicated. Although he has no experience in producing storyboards, he is an active and popular comic book author... Sharp Co., Ltd. should also take this into consideration.

Higashinoji gained confidence and planned to buy some professional books on storyboard script production methods this afternoon after school.

"I also think Mr. Higashino you can give it a try." Hosokawa Koharu also nodded: "This is a rare experience. Since Mr. Higashino has the intention to fight for it, I will immediately report it to Editor-in-Chief Urashima.

Report on the side.”

"Then I'd like to trouble Editor Hosokawa."

Higashinoji didn't show any pretense and cut off the call with thanks.

And the moment he hung up the phone, he felt the curious eyes of Konoe Ryoka, Takahashi Yumi, and Fujiwara Aoi.

"Some work-related matters." Higashino explained with a smile. After all, it was about an animated movie, and it probably needs to be kept secret for now, so it was difficult to explain it to them.

He had been eating with Konoe Ryoka and the three of them for several days in a row. After all, he had told Konoe Ryoka earlier to let her eat with him.

As for Takahashi Yumi and Fujiwara Aoi... Originally, these two did not want to get involved, especially Fujiwara Aoi, who felt that they were like light bulbs, interfering with the communication between Higashinoji and Konoe Ryoka - in other words, she

I don’t want to eat dog food.

However, Tonoji smiled and dismissed Fujiwara Aoi's concerns.

It's not that Higashinoji likes light bulbs, but that Konoe Ryoka is so thin-skinned that she can't even lift chopsticks in front of Higashinoji. The atmosphere is so embarrassing.

If Fujiwara Aoi and Takahashi Yumi hadn't been invited to calm down the atmosphere, the people next to them would probably have thought that Higashino forced Konoe Ryoka to accompany him to dinner.

So I kept doing it over and over again, and it ended up in this situation now.

"What about work? Is "Midnight Bell" an OVA version? I know that Mr. Higashino is very powerful, and he has defeated all the invincible players in the world——"

Next to her, Yumi Takahashi praised it loudly, but her eyes were fixed on the perfectly browned chicken breast in Higashinoji's bento box.

Rather than saying that this girl is bragging about herself, it is better to say that she is thinking about her chicken breasts.

In response to this, Tonoji simply smiled and threw the chicken breast into his mouth. He had finally figured out the urine properties of Yumi Takahashi. Even if he gave her the chicken breast, she would still miss him.

Other things in the box.

Seeing Higashinoji eating the chicken breast, Takahashi Yumi said "ah", and then showed a sad expression: "The best in the world... my chicken breast..."

But the sadness didn't last long.

Konoe Ryoka next to her handed her the lunch box and whispered to her: "Yumi, I also have some here. If I can't finish it, I'll give it to you."

She picked out all the chicken breasts in her lunch box and gave them to Yumi Takahashi, looking at Yumi Takahashi with her big clear eyes.

For some reason, looking at these eyes, Takahashi Yumi felt inexplicably guilty.

Although she is stupid, she is not stupid.

How could Konoe Ryoka have more than she could eat? She must be trying to show off her strength.

So she shook her head firmly, not wanting anything from Konoe Ryoka...until she stuffed the fried chicken nuggets from Fujiwara Aoi's lunch box into her mouth:.

"Hey, Akui is the best to me."

"Nonsense." Fujiwara Aoi saw her fried chicken nuggets being eaten and was furious. She liked fried chicken nuggets the most, and she didn't say she would give them to someone like Takahashi Yumi.

As a result, Takahashi Yumi suddenly took action and poked away her fried chicken nuggets.

It happened that this guy had practiced kendo, and his attacks were so fast and accurate that Aoi Fujiwara couldn't react for a moment.

But Fujiwara Aoi quickly thought of something and said instead: "Yumi, do you know? The final exam is coming up soon, and the winter vacation will be in a few weeks... Are you ready?"

"Huh?" Yumi Takahashi, who was still chewing fried chicken happily, was stunned for a moment, then her face turned bitter, she hurriedly took out the lunch box she had hidden, and took the initiative to offer her delicious food to Fujiwara Aoi.

: "It's time for the final exam. Master Fujiwara, please save me."

Her grades have been poor for a long time, and she has always relied on Fujiwara Aoi. She has relied on Fujiwara Aoi all the way to avoid failing classes and repeating grades... As for Konoe Ryoka?

Sometimes she doesn't know what Konoe Ryoka is talking about - when asking about math, she just makes an auxiliary line, when asking about Chinese, she just reads... Who can understand this?

"How about Higashino-san?" Fujiwara Aoi looked at the lunch box handed over by Takahashi Yumi and slowly picked out the ingredients as if she were selecting ingredients at a vegetable market.

yes.

Since Higashinoji is so smart, he should have no problem with his grades.

Takahashi Yumi looked at Higashinoji with a hopeful expression.

But soon, Higashinoji smiled and shook his head: "I can't do it. I failed even my own subjects."

He has so many things to do all day long, how can he have time to study? Do you really think of him as a superman?

"Hey? But Teacher Higashino, aren't you a genius...?"

Is there anything else that can be difficult for Higashinoji?

Not only Takahashi Yumi, but also Fujiwara Aoi and Konoe Ryoka all looked towards Higashinoji.

"That's just what people outside think I am. I usually ask Lianghua to help me with my homework."

Toyoji laughed.

Ever since he and Konoe Ryoka became boyfriend and girlfriend, basically all the homework assigned by his teachers was written by Konoe Ryoka.

Listening to Higashinoji's answer, Takahashi Yumi looked a bit incredulous: "Teacher Higashino... aren't you afraid of repeating a grade?"

yes.

This is too scary for Higashinoji. He didn't even do his homework. Isn't it possible that he is not afraid of repeating the grade?

Listening to what Takahashi Yumi said, Konoe Ryoka, who had been silent on the other side, also silently came over and tightened her grip on Higashinoji's sleeves. Her big watery eyes were also a little uneasy - she didn't want to see Higashinoji.

Repeat a grade.

"It's okay, I still enjoy some privileges in Kitajuku. I won't repeat the grade even if I fail all the classes." Higashinoji didn't care.

He does enjoy privileges. Even if he fails all subjects, the North Free School will not block his diploma.

After all, he is now the signature student of Kita Yoijuku, relying on him to attract students from outside.

It's just a trivial matter like failing a class... Higashinoji doesn't even have to ask, Principal Ryuichi Yoshimine will arrange it for him safely.

Takahashi Yumi next to her heard what he said, and her eyes turned red with envy. She also whispered that she must get a ranking in the next kendo competition, and she didn't want to take exams all the time.

Regarding Yumi Takahashi's envious expression, Tonoji just laughed happily and said nothing more.

There's really nothing to say.

Rather than this, it would be better to think about the animation script tomorrow.

In this way, the ordinary day passed quickly. Higashino took time out in the afternoon to buy a few books on animation script production, and then returned home to study hard.

Then, he discovered in a book the animation script production method that suited him best.

"How to make storyboard picture books..." Higashinoji pondered, and he probably knew it in his mind.

...

The next day, Higashinoji carried his bag and got into the special car prepared by Urashima Publishing House and headed for the negotiation location prepared by Sharp Corporation.

"Teacher Higashikata, don't be nervous when you get there. I'm right next to you, so don't be nervous."

Hosokawa Koharu followed editor-in-chief Urashima, looking around restlessly, and at the same time warned Higashinoji.

She was looking around and nervous, which made Toyoji speechless. However, she kept telling herself not to be nervous... This was just a standard thief cry to catch the thief.

But it's always bad to sigh, so Tonoji quickly smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that nervous."
To be continued...
