Full-time cartoonist

"To kill someone in "Death Note," you must see the other person's face and know the other person's name. Kira is in the Kanto region of Japan. He is a student and a family member of a police officer. He has been in contact with FBI agents."

Koji Yoshida was sitting on the sofa in Tori Akino's studio, immersed in the plot of "Death Note". "Although Yagami captured the city and left L with only five people available, forcing L to show up, his information was exposed more and more. more."

Yue's trump cards became fewer and more conspicuous. When Kira, who was hiding in the dark, was exposed, that was when he died.

L looked like he was at a disadvantage, but in fact he was gradually mastering the necessary elements for victory.

"L is more like the protagonist of Wangdao comics."

From L's perspective, "Death Note" is a wonderful normal suspense mystery comic.

"You're very noisy, Yoshida."

Higashikata looked up helplessly. He had made a lot of progress due to his illness in the past two days. He was very busy these two days. "If you have time, please hurry up with your assistant."

Koji Yoshida is so unreliable. This is the first time he has only one assistant to assist him in his work.

"Very soon, very soon." Yoshida took out his phone and looked at the many text messages with a fascinated smile.

"It'll be ready soon."

…

Sasaki looked at Komasa's ranking and was worried. "Death Note" was very popular and it was time to release a single book. However, the public opinion on the Internet was one-sided. He had to wait until the noise stopped before he could take action.

"The average sales volume of "One Piece" is around 3.07 million. I don't know if "Death Note" can achieve this achievement."

With the publication of the "Alabasta" chapter, the performance of "One Piece" has soared, completely surpassing "Naruto", and now it has reached excellent results in jump, second only to "Slam Dunk" and "Dragon Ball".

As long as Oda doesn't stretch his legs and maintains his readership, with the rise of the Internet, the average volume sales of "One Piece" will inevitably surpass "Dragon Ball" in the future.

It just depends on fate whether it can reach the level of "Slam Dunk".

Now Sasaki compares "Death Note" with "One Piece", and it can already be seen that Sasaki attaches great importance to this comic.

"Tori Akino is a rare genius in 50 years. The three comics are all excellent. It's a pity that he is too willful."

Thinking of this, Sasaki shook his head. "Soul of Chess", "Slam Dunk" and "Death Note" all had very good results, but they were always finished quickly.

It seems that anything later is a blasphemy to the work.

"'Death Note' will be finished soon, I have to hurry up." He looked far away and made up his mind.

…

In the Hanhai Villa area, Miyano and his wife were sitting on the balcony enjoying the rare sunshine.

In December, the sun rarely shines so brightly.

The wife was a little embarrassed, "Jian is obsessed with a comic book recently."

"That kid knows what he should do." The husband didn't care and stretched out in the sunshine.

He is usually very busy at work and does not want to spend his rare leisure time on disciplining his children.

"I'm a little curious." He tilted his head and looked at the Red Maple Villa beside him. "My neighbor rarely goes out."

Every time he went home, he found the door closed.

If the villa wasn't so clean now, I would have thought that the Higashino family had moved away.

"I know this." Mrs. Miyano said, "You must have never expected that the man from the Higashino family is actually a cartoonist."

"Eh? That's really rare. No wonder I'm so busy. I didn't even go to see the maple leaves when they turned red at the end of October." Mr. Miyano was slightly surprised.

"I just don't know which cartoonist it is." Mrs. Miyano shook her head regretfully.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know," Mr. Miyano touched the back of her hand, "He has no interaction with us."

…

Miyano Ken kept browsing the forum in his bedroom. From time to time, he switched to the camera at the door to see if his parents were approaching.

There were posters of Yagami Yue and Sui Ke hanging on the bedroom wall. The background was dark. Yagami Yue's eyes were glowing red, and there was a cunning smile on the corner of his mouth that showed that the plan was passed. It looked unhealthy.

"When will there be peripheral notebooks for "Death Note"? I really want to own a real set."

"Now that the public opinion is so serious, there will definitely be no such thing. It is better to learn from what is in the news and DIY it yourself."

"No, the one on the news is too ugly. It's not cool at all like the one in the comics."

"I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. The animation being produced for "Death Note" will most likely be cut in half, and it may have been suspended now."

"It's so damning that parents and teachers just stop us from pursuing our hobbies."

"It's better to just ban the sale to primary school students. It's really troublesome."

"What does it say above? Now to add insult to injury, sooner or later you will have our day."

"laugh."

"The paper quality of Jump is so bad that I want to buy a single volume and keep it as a collection."

In addition to discussions about the plot, there are also many complaints on the "Death Note" forum.

This comic has been serialized for 10 chapters, almost three months ago. There are only some small things like posters and cups around. What they need most is no official output.

But they are pessimistic and feel that the future of "Death Note" is uncertain.

It is enough that jump and the author himself continued to serialize the series despite the pressure and did not give up.

These "Death Note" readers will only complain online and will not urge Shueisha. This will inevitably become the last straw, causing the magazine to collapse and the manga to be cut in half.

"I want to be a member of the Tokyo Diet when I grow up," Ken Miyano typed, "and protect the things that children love."

Then sent it out.

Someone soon commented, "Don't be Kira, hahaha."

Miyano Ken let out an unhappy "tsk". He switched the screen and found his mother walking over with hot milk. He quickly turned off the computer screen, jumped on the bed, pulled off the poster, and then spread homework on the table.

Then there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in." He said happily, blinking his eyes, "Thank you, mom."

"I'm studying again," Mrs. Miyano felt that her worries just now were unnecessary. The boy was so sensible that there was no need to educate him.

"Take time to relax and unwind."

"I see."

Mrs. Miyano put down the milk and left, and Ken Miyano waved her off.

As the door closed, he quickly turned on the screen.

Someone posted a few photos on the forum.

"Wow, I'm so envious!"

Ken Miyano's eyes widened. This was the "Death Note" DIYed by the craftsman. It had "DEATH NOTE" written in white on the all-black cover.

The notebook's title page is also black, but has a skull print and "Death Note" rules written in English.

It looks very mysterious, exactly like in the comics.

"I really want to have a way. It's all those damn adults' fault."

…

When he woke up the next day, Miyano Ken was particularly tired. He had a dream last night, in which he picked up the notebook.

Just writing about immortals made him particularly anxious. He slapped himself and then sobered up.

"Ah, it's snowing."

Outside the window, there was white snow, and the branches were covered with silver. Ken Miyano was still a child after all. He forgot his discomfort and stared blankly with his mouth open, "It's so beautiful."

This was his most surprising moment recently.

Following the crunching sound of snowflakes, Ken Miyano looked around from time to time. There was thick snow on everyone's roof. Unfortunately, one family had it removed, and the gray roof ridge was exposed among the snow. It was really out of place. ah.

Miyano Ken thought he could have a snowball fight with his classmates, and his steps became brisk. He soon arrived near the school. He remembered that the pen had no ink, so he walked into the stationery store, wanting to grab a pen and left.

"Wait, this is... wow."

In the most conspicuous place of the notebook area, he was surprised to see the notebook he had been dreaming about. It was a mysterious and terrifying notebook with a black cover and "DEATH NOTE" written on it.

"This is the most surprising moment for me!"

He forgot about buying a pen, so he immediately took down his notebook and trotted to the counter to pay.

“Be gentle, be careful of slipping,” the cashier reminded.

"Sorry, I want this."

"The total is 2,000 yen."

"Thank you." I won my dream for just 2,000 yen. It's really great!

Although a laptop that looks better quality on the side only costs 800 yen.
