I, Xingyue, a Manga Artist!

Discuss manga with manga artist...

In the current JUMC, it is estimated that some editors will choose to reject it, especially when the cartoonist has not yet passed the serialization.

Although JUMC is making more money now, the atmosphere is not as good as before.

Although, there are still quite a few dedicated editors, but the same...Because no matter how dedicated they are, the possibility of this manga artist being serialized is very low...

The longer the editor stays, the less motivated he will be.

But Yu Iwamoto is different!

Although he can be regarded as an old man in the editorial department. But I have a sense of honor for being an editor!

"Of course, I'm your editor. You can ask me questions about comics."

Yu Iwamoto immediately said... Well, now he can only find the presence of an editor in these new manga artists.

There are only three cartoonists in charge of him now.

And because I have already become the team leader, or have been for a while...Generally, new manga artists are led by his editors, so this time, if the manga artist [Kurokawa] hadn’t deliberately cooperated with He said for a while, if he was asked to bring a newcomer, this manga artist should be a person in the group or even in other groups to help lead.

Manga artist [Kurokawa] over there...

It can also be said that the cartoonist who brought him to this point doesn't need to care at all!

Every time I bring over a finished manuscript, I don’t need to revise it, I don’t need suggestions...

His identity as an editor is completely a courier!

He did it partly for the money, but partly because he liked it, of course. I like comics... This is also a common situation in the editorial department of JUMC.

If you can participate in the creation process of a comic, even if you just watch it, even if you just say a little bit. Even if the cartoonist doesn't listen, it can fill him with a sense of honor.

But... [Kurokawa] is different, he is not needed at all.

No... no one is needed, not even a cartoonist's assistant!

He... He couldn't find the feeling of being an editor at all in Kurokawa.

And [Duo Jiazi] is better, but there is no enthusiasm...

Her painting skills and story skills are steadily improving, and because of the subject matter, she has never encountered any danger, such as cutting in half, so it can be said that things are going smoothly...

so.

When I saw every meeting, the other editors looked nervous and expectant.

I'm afraid that the manga artist under him won't pass the serialization, or his manga artist's manga will be cut in half...

He didn't feel anything.

It's hard not to feel the tension... There's a feeling of being an outsider.

But... finally!

This time, the rookie cartoonist more or less gave him the feeling of [I am an editor, not a courier]...

"In terms of time... how about the day after tomorrow?" Liangyi and Mi thought about it, after all, they had just come back.

I've been very tired from playing these two days, so I'll take a day off tomorrow.

"Well, it's fine the day after tomorrow." Iwamoto Yuu nodded: "It's just right, I have something to do tomorrow, so the time will just be staggered"

"Well...then I'll go to the editorial department to find you the day after tomorrow."

After talking about related things again, Liangyi and Mi hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, even if the trumpet is temporarily completed, it is only necessary to discuss with Iwamoto Yu about the general setting and plot direction of the new manga, which is not so difficult.

but...

What theme to choose for the new comic...

"Hmm... What I have to consider at this time is that I am a newcomer... How can I get up faster for a newcomer? By the way, there is no doubt that I am just trying to catch the heat!"

So what is hotter now?

In addition to the popularity of Liangyi and Mi comics, the current hot topic should be...

Dragon Quest!

During this period, RPG games such as Dragon Quest were very popular.

It can be said that it is the peak period of RPG games. If you draw a similar comic ... or the opposite, it should be able to occupy a large market and attract some readers.

After all, the wall between comics and games isn't that thick.

Many people play games while reading comics, and read comics while playing games...

"We can think about it in the future."

 …

the next day

"Is Mr. Kurokawa here?"

"He Mi?" Liang Yi looked at the studio where there was no one but himself and shouted, "He Mi, I have your phone number!"

"Yes, I know!"

Liangyi and Mi, who were changing clothes, hurried over: "Is it the editorial department?"

"I didn't ask, but it should be." Liang Ri handed over the phone and said, after all, the phone in the studio was just to tell the editorial department...

"En." Liangyi and Mi answered the phone while talking: "Is this Mr. Iwamoto?"

"Yes, Kurokawa-sensei...will you participate in this year's annual meeting?"

"Oh, it's the annual meeting of JUMC..." Liangyi and Mi nodded and said, "That...sorry, although I really want to attend, but I will be busy in the past two years, so I probably don't have time to go."

"Well, I know, but it's really a pity. There should be many people in the younger generation who want to meet Mr. Kurokawa." Iwamoto Yu said to the phone: "That...is it a matter of marriage?"

"That's it, so these two years will be a little busy." That being said... In fact, it's nothing, but he plans to attend the annual meeting as a new cartoonist in the future.

And I don't know how to clone myself, so... I can only stop from this year.

Give them the feeling that [Mr. Kurokawa] is no longer going to the annual meeting...

In this way, I will be able to pretend to be a wave of newcomers by then.

"I see..." Yuu Iwamoto nodded, remembering the invitation that Liangyi and Mi gave him... Although I don't know the specific situation, ah, a big family like the Liangyi family must be the kind of Everything can be very complicated...

like on tv...

"In this case, I will record it here." Iwamoto Yu listened to the voice on the other side of the phone and said, "Yes...that's right, there is nothing else, that's it...yes, thank you."

Hang up the phone, record it and start dialing the second one.

"Next is Tokako's..."
