Chapter 421. What can I do? (4000 words)

Higashinoji has no intention of drawing comics yet, and Hosokawa Koharu does not continue to force him.

After all, the manga author is forced to draw comics - she has never heard of this precedent in the entire history of Japanese publishing houses.

Since Higashinoji doesn't mean this for the time being, there is no need to force him.

At least that's what Hosokawa Koharu thinks.

She truthfully reported the situation to Urashima Editor-in-Chief and showed Higashinoji's situation, and her tone did not mean that she was very difficult.

And the editor-in-chief of Urajima on the other side...

To be honest, he didn't care much.

This time, Hosokawa Koharu asked Higashinoji, because the new comics of Higashinoji were only taken out in a week or a few weeks ago, and they were a little difficult to free up the empty space for Higashinoji.

After all, a comic magazine usually has more than 400 pages, and the comics being serialized are about twenty. In addition, some pages of the newcomer appreciation (newcomer work competition) or monthly appreciation (one comic competition every month).

These page counts are basically fixed.

The serialization location is basically mobile. Every few weeks, a comic may be cut in half and replaced with a new comic...

Under such a rigorous rules and regulations, it would be even more difficult to ensure that Higashinoji has a serial position...

But now I know that Higashinoji has no plans to draw comics for the time being.

Then they don’t have to care about it anymore, just put on newcomers’ works.

At the same time, the editor-in-chief Urajima did not forget to ask Higashinoji to help him to send an announcement to temporarily stop writing, so as not to have unreasonable expectations, and he would never see Higashinoji's works at that time... he expressed his dissatisfaction directly under the magazine's homepage.

After all, there were precedents at the beginning.

Higashinoji's "Unnatural Death" has only stopped serializing for a few weeks.

There was even rumors outside that Toshima Publishing House had secretly killed Higashinoji.

That wouldn't be great.

Fortunately, Higashinoji is also easy to talk to and is willing to cooperate with Toshima Publishing House.

He cooperated with a kind attitude to issue an announcement, saying that he would make a new animated movie "Spirited Away" recently, and he might not have time to serialize the comics again, so he temporarily stopped writing. I hope all readers can understand it.

Similarly, he did not forget to advertise "Hashi" magazine, which mainly means that there are many good works on "Hashi", so everyone doesn't have to keep staring at me.

He made the announcement.

A group of readers of "Harmony" did not look shocked or even surprised, as in some novels, thinking that the world had collapsed and the earth was not rotating.

They had a very calm expression and understood Higashinoji.

After all, Higashinoji has other work, so it is understandable that he doesn't have time to serialize comics.

Moreover, "Waise" is one of the best comic magazines in Japan. Even if it lacks Higashinoji's comics, the comics in them should still be quite outstanding...

Yes.

No one can live without anyone else.

No earth left anyone, so the autobiography stopped.

Even if Higashinoji is gone in "Hashi", they can still accept it completely... It's strange!

“What’s going on?”

As an old fan of "Kaisei" and Hiroshi Hirosaki, who is an old fan of "Kaisei" in his hand, fell on the tatami floor, tossing and turning, and felt an inexplicably anxious feeling.

"Harmony" is still the same "Harmony", it is still a variety of comics, and the layout is also very particular...

"But why does it make me feel so wrong?"

Hiroshi Kamizaki was anxious. The more he read the "Hashi" in his hand, the more he felt that he couldn't read it.

It is obvious that the content of "Kashi" has not changed at all, but it is just missing Higashiji's comics.

But it made him feel very annoyed and uncomfortable to look at.

It feels tasteless.

"Why does this happen?"

Kamisaki Hiroki got up and sat up again.

In the past, after watching Higashinoji's "Hanzawa Naoki", he didn't feel this way when he went to watch other comics on "Waise".

But now... he is really annoyed when he reads it, and the more he reads it, the more he feels the content of the comics on "Harmony" is boring.

The comics that you can read are only two works by Mr. Fuji Kikumoto and Mr. Akisa Kuromiya.

"Forget it, I won't watch it."

Kamisaki put down the "Hashi" in his hand.

Originally, the weekly issue of "Hashi" was a mental recovery agent for his work every week.

But if he continues to see this, this "mental recovery agent" will probably make him angry.

He didn't want this difficult break to get irritated.

"Go and see what's happening on the forum."

Hiroki Kamisaki put down the "Kashishi" and also wanted to see how the people on the forum responded to this issue of "Kashishi".

He felt that it might be that his own reaction was too extreme.

People on the Internet probably won't be like him...

Then...

"What exactly is the publication of this issue of Kazuo? Apart from the works of Fuji Kikumoto and Kuromiya, what are the other comic writers drawing?"

Someone commented unceremoniously.

Some people also commented below.

"This episode of "Hoshi" is really hot and my blood pressure is rising... Why did it suddenly become this quality? I don't feel that the editors and authors are doing their homework carefully... Do you want to cheat money with this quality?"

Even a bit extreme irritable man, after seeing the quality of "Harmony" this week, posted a post and scolded him.

"If you want to make money, please show some sincerity, the editorial department of "Heshi".

"Rubbish!"

However, this kind of extreme readers still account for a small part.

Most readers don't understand it very much.

Why has "Heshi", which has always been well-received, suddenly become such a "tasteless and useless"?

The key is not that one or two people think so, but that most readers think that "Harmony" is really not as attractive as before.

They began to analyze.

Let’s first analyze the painter of each comic author, and some people even compare the previous episodes of "Harmony" with this episode of "Harmony".

Then they discovered.

In terms of painting, these comic authors have not only not regressed, but have also made a lot of progress.

Some readers are probably the "Hanzawa Naoki", which has always dominated the number one in the readers' investigation. This made the authors who have been suppressed by him all year round light up. They thought this was an opportunity to get the first place, so they strengthened their painting skills... They even painted the shadows by hand, instead of sticking them with dot paper.

After all, the Great Demon King of Dongye has fallen.

Everyone has the opportunity to become emperor!

This is also reflected in the plot.

After comparison, readers of "Harmony" discovered that the plot of this issue of "Harmony" comic is much more exciting than before.

This made it unacceptable to a group of readers.

no...

I always think you have regressed, so I painted it so ugly.

Didn’t you expect that you have made progress and still stride like this?

This made them even more unacceptable.

Since they have made progress, they should be more comfortable to see, why is it boring?

At this time, someone finally came forward to try to analyze.

"I don't think it's the author or editor of "Hashi" that has something wrong, it's the problem with us."

As soon as this point of view came out, it attracted the attention of many netizens. They were full of question marks - how can comics and magazines be their problem if they are not good at reading them?

However, considering that the person who came out to explain was a particularly famous poster on the Japanese Internet, no one jumped out to sing the opposite tune for the time being, just waiting for his explanation.

About a few minutes later, the poster summarized his views and posted them.

"The reason why the previous "Waise" has always attracted us to watch is that we don't want to miss it at all because Higashinosan's "Hansawa Naoki" was serialized at that time... I believe many people here are watching for the update of "Hansawa Naoki"?"

His words make sense.

At the beginning, the number of positive reviews by readers of "Hanzawa Naoki" reached 90%.

In other words, at least 90% of readers who watch "Hanzawa Naoki".

“That’s the problem.”

"Hanzawa Naoki... No, it is Higashinosan's story construction ability and painting skills, which are far ahead of all the comics on "Water". We usually feel comfortable after reading "Hanzawa Naoki", and then we can read other comics at this time, and there is no problem at all... It's like we just ate the top Wagyu beef that we have just eaten the staple food. At this time, we need some small fruit desserts to relieve the greasiness and relieve the excitement."

"But now "Hanzawa Naoki" is no longer available in "Hanzawa". This is equivalent to people starting to be forced to eat desserts and fruits before they even eat staple food... This certainly makes people feel bored."

"In other words, our tastes have been raised by "Hanzawa Naoki" before we knew it, so that when we look at other works, we can't stand any sand in our eyes. Because we subconsciously compare these works with the completed "Hanzawa Naoki". We treat desserts as staple food... I think no one has this kind of interest, right?"

The poster's post has been posted here.

It made Hiroshi Kamizaki stunned, and then he realized it.

Don't say...

There is really some truth.

When he was watching other works today, he subconsciously thought, "If it was "Hanzawa Naoki", it would not be handled like this." "If it was "Hanzawa Naoki"...'

This is how people are.

When the outstanding work was still there, I thought it was natural that this work existed, and some people wanted to spray it a few words.

But when the work was over, someone sighed again, feeling it was a pity.

It’s like some e-sports players in their previous lives, who were scolded by various people before retirement, and after retirement, they began to call them “only god” and “gods”, and they also dislike other e-sports players...

People... are actually like this.

Don’t cherish it when you are there, and you will always think about it when you are gone.

"So that's how it is."

Hiroki Kamizaki looked at the post and shook his head.

"Waise" without "Hanzawa Naoki" is like losing soul. Although the above works are of good quality, it is difficult to arouse his interest.

"I always thought I was a fan of "Hashi"... I didn't expect that I just like Mr. Higashino."

Hiroshi Kamizaki was helpless, but at the same time, he couldn't help but run to the bottom of the page of Higashino Studio and posted a comment hoping that Higashino would come back soon.

no way.

He just wants to see Higashinoji's next work!

What do you understand Higashinoji? What do you think Higashinoji has a job and has no time to draw new comics for granted?

All are farting!

Come back and draw a new comic for me!

Don't let go!

There are more than Hiroshi Kamisaki who has this idea.

In addition to him, there are many fans of "Hanzawa Naoki" who have posted comments under Higashino Studio.

The roughly means, ‘What we said before is considerate that your work has been cancelled. Come back and draw comics, what animated movies are you doing?’

The number of comments that have been rising have also attracted the attention of Higashino Studio.

The matter was naturally heard in Higashinoji's ears.

"There is such a thing?" Higashinoji, who was riding on the water train with Chihiro and the faceless man, put down the pen in his hand a little funny, and at the same time pinched the thermos next to him and drank a sip of water: "It's just a simple joking, I don't think I need to care at all."

Higashinoji is quite narcissistic, but he doesn't think that if the world is missing, he really can't turn.

Similarly, he also felt that even if he was missing from "Harmony", it would be harmless. At most, it would lose some popularity and would never hurt the fundamentals.

Thinking of this, Higashinoji didn't care much about these online comments.

After all, both of these people who left the message seemed to have had a drug and had a withdrawal reaction. They wanted to tie Higashinoji to draw a comic immediately - this is obvious that it was fans joking.

Of course, Higashinoji wouldn't care too much.

Besides, he does have a lot of work to accumulate here, and even if these people come to persuade him, he doesn't have much intention of changing his mind.

He drank a few more sips of water and continued to work.

At the same time, Toshima Publishing House on the other side—

Editor-in-chief Urajima had a little numbness in his scalp.

It can even be said to be a little headache.

Because he never thought about it.

A comic, or a comic author, will end a serialized comic, have such a serious impact on the entire magazine.

At first he had the same idea as Higashinoji.

After all, the earth still rotates without anyone else.

Even if Higashinoji is a pillar, so what?

At most it will affect sales.

But he obviously didn't expect it.

This "little sales" spread...it's so big.

Sales of "Hashi" are declining at an astonishing rate recently.

From the beginning, "Chioniyo" that steadily suppressed the Iwazuki Press next door, it has become the current situation of 55.

That's right.

It's the situation of opening five or five.

The sales of "Waise" and "Chyo" are almost the same, but due to the heritage of "Hanzawa Naoki", the sales of "Waise" comics still have a little advantage.

But...

This advantage is nothing at all, and I feel like I will be caught up in the next moment.
Chapter completed!
