I am the master of depressive comics

Chapter 12 This comic may win a gold reward

When Miyazen Ken reviews comics, he needs to observe the artistry, style, and plot of the work.

"This painter... is really good. Could it be that he is really the trumpet of some senior cartoonist."

Miyamae Ken ruled out the previously speculated newcomer manga artist. After all, the artist of the manga can best reflect the author's skills, and the artist carries the experience and technology of the manga author.

No, it shouldn't be a senior cartoonist. After all, no one would be willing to sacrifice their face and come to the Newcomer Award to fish.

Most of them are new works published by the assistant of a certain cartoonist. After all, many senior cartoonists' first cartoons were made by working as assistants to old cartoonists, and they gradually learned and published them.

"But having said that, the style of this comic is a bit like Mr. Ito Wakaba's "Horror and Thriller"."

Miyamae Ken thought carefully, constantly thinking of cartoonists/assistants with similar cartoon styles.

After thinking for a while, Miyamae Ken gave up. After all, no matter how good the painter is, it is useless if the plot is poor.

This is the best manga artist I have encountered today, Miyamae Tsurugi.

"If the plot is good, it shouldn't be a big problem to win a silver medal." He thought this way.

My eyes are constantly reviewing the comics, and I will check the plot now and submit it to the editor-in-chief for review if possible.

The story opens with Octopus Pi's self-narration.

The octopus came to the happy planet with its peck, and it came to the earth to make people happy.

When there was no food, Shizuka in front of her reached out to her.

In order to repay Shizuka, Octopus gave her a flying prop, but Shizuka refused. "Even if I could fly in the sky, it wouldn't change anything."

Miyazaki looked at the next frame, and there were many obscenities on Shizuka's schoolbag.

"Is it really about school bullying?"

Later, Shizuka told Octopus Pi's story about herself, and Octopus Pi wanted to invite her to the Happy Planet. But Shizuka refused, with a sad expression on her face.

"I really want Shizuka to smile more." Octopus thought.

When Ken Miyamae read the middle of the first episode, around page 28, the plot changed from heartwarming to depressing.

I saw a large picture of Shizuka hanging on a beam with a bench at her feet, which could be considered a suicide scene.

...........

Miyazaki felt his head buzzing, and he didn't expect the plot to unfold like this.

What happens next? How to write the plot. With doubts, Miyazaki continued to look down.

Octopus uses Happy Camera to reverse time and stretch the timeline to yesterday when he and Shizuka took photos. Octopus Pi was curious about why Shizuka-xiang wanted to commit suicide, so he asked her to go to school with her.

At the end of the first episode, Miyazaki Ken unexpectedly thought about it.

"Was Shizuka being bullied in school? Are they the girls from the previous chapters? Can Octopus save Shizuka?"

There were constant questions in Miyazen Ken's mind, and now his interest was aroused and he wanted to continue reading.

In fact, after seeing this, Miyamae Ken already thinks this is a masterpiece.

The narrative at the beginning is direct and clear, without any ambiguity. The painting style and plot are quite good and can arouse readers' interest.

"It looks like this comic will be selected."

Every cartoonist has his or her own evaluation criteria. Ken Miyamae believes that the beginning of a cartoon is extremely important, as it is the key to attracting readers.

"The story behind should be the same as Doraemon. Octopus brings out various props to help Shizuka. It should be quite heartwarming."

With this thought in mind, Miyazen Ken continued to look down.

With the help of Octopus, Shizuka successfully answered the teacher's question. The students in the classroom were all surprised, except for Shina behind her.

"Sure enough, I guessed it right. The direction of the plot is for Octopus to help Shizuka and get rid of bullying."

Seeing this scene, Miyazaki Ken strengthened his previous speculation and continued to look down with a smile.

Jinna asked Shizuka to go to the sports warehouse at noon, but Shizuka was hesitant. Seeing this, Octopus Pi asked her to go to the banquet in her place.

"I will make the relationship between the two of them better." Octopus went to the banquet with this thought.

snap

A big character occupies one space, and the fake Shizuka fell to the ground with an octopus snap. The person in front of her kept saying bad things to her, and she even took out a pencil and stabbed it.

"Is Mariina a bully? Why does she bully Shizuka?"

Miyamae Tsurugi, who had such thoughts in his mind, only realized at the end of the second episode that it turned out to be related to Mariina's father.

The third episode mainly talks about Shina's design to take Shizuka's dog Charlie away from her. In order to reverse this ending, Octopus kept using Happy Camera and returned to the past.

On the last page of this article, the drawing was enlarged here, depicting the expressions of Shizuka and Mariina, which made Miyazaki Ken's heart tighten. And the content of the third episode ends here.

Seeing Miyazaki Ken here holding a comic in his hand, he was very excited and kept mumbling.

"This work is a masterpiece, at least it will be awarded a silver medal or above, if the subsequent plots continue to maintain this level."

Miyazaki stood up excitedly, his fat body swaying in his sportswear. It was obvious that he was very happy, especially when he discovered a work with great potential.

The sound of the sword in front of the palace attracted the attention of the surrounding editors, and many people looked at him.

"Screenwriter Miyamae Ken, what happened? Why are you so excited?"

A mature female editor wearing professional clothes and black-rimmed glasses asked.

"Sorry, sorry. I was a little too excited when I saw the good works."

Gong Qianjian bowed and apologized to everyone in the editorial office for affecting their review.

Everyone quickly responded: He didn't need to be so reserved. It was normal to be excited when he found good works.

However, Gong Qianjian's words also attracted their attention. What kind of work made him so excited. Everyone stopped their work and gathered around him.

Gong Qianjian looked at everyone's actions, walked towards the copier consciously, printed five copies and distributed them to everyone.

Ten minutes later, the editorial office made a whole noise.

"It's really good. This kind of subject about school bullying is really rare, and it's written so well."

"Yes, especially its characterization is very good, and it also gives people a sense of substitution."

"The title is Octopus Pi's Original Sin. I guess Octopus Pi is kind enough to help Shizuka, but it turned out to be a bad thing in the end."

"This comic should be able to hit the gold award for the newcomer award, as long as there are no major problems with the plot later."

Many editors continue to put forward their own opinions. In a large company like Shueisha, the professional quality of each editor is good. After all, the poor ones have been kicked out of the company long ago.

After submitting the comic, Ken Miyamae once again focused his attention on the card sent.

"Kamiya Kyon-sensei? It's amazing that you can draw such a work."

The two people who "get along harmoniously"
