The Creator of the Second Dimension

The popularity of "Soul Eater: Zero" is not only due to its unexpected beginning, but also because of word of mouth.

First of all, the first wave of people who were shocked after watching the animation, they expressed their thoughts in various animation exchange groups, forums, and Weibo, and attracted another group of people who did not pay much attention to the animation of "Soul Eater: Zero" to watch. This formed a second spread. By noon the next day, almost everyone in the Chinese animation circle knew about "Soul Eater: Zero".

After many people were cheated at the beginning, with the mentality of "I can't be the only one who is confused", they introduced "Soul Eater: Zero" to other people, and some even immediately produced related fraudulent information.

"Have you watched the first episode of "Soul Eater: Zero", if you have, then we are half-brothers and sisters."

Various links, short links, and QR codes all point to the broadcast address of the first episode of "Soul Eater: Zero". In just a few hours, this animation immediately became the hottest January animation.

Even in the rankings of animation keywords on Weibo, "Soul Eater: Zero" and related entries have surpassed Rainbow Media's "Steel Magician".

After all, playing memes is the favorite thing for the two-dimensional audience, and repeating memes is even more fun. Relying on these memes, "Soul Eater: Zero" spread rapidly.

Naturally, there were many posts about "Soul Eater: Zero" in the A2 forum.

This animation has a special building, but the fans are obviously not satisfied with climbing the stairs, but have opened new posts outside.

One of the posts titled "[Spoiler Discussion] Have you watched January's "Soul Eater: Zero"?" received the most replies, because it was the first post after it started broadcasting.

[Assault Captain]: Fuck, this animation is too powerful, I won't spoil it, you all watch it, after watching it, you will say the same thing as me.

[yaoniming300]: It’s okay. I’m curious about how the story will unfold afterwards. Although the main character dies in the first episode, it’s a good gimmick, but the follow-up is easy to collapse.

[Salted Fish King]: Just for the beginning, I am determined to follow this animation.

[I love to eat melon seeds]: Wait a minute, isn't this an animation adapted from a manga, and it's over after watching the original work.

[Panda Superman]: I can’t buy the original work at all. I read it on the way to work this morning. After finishing it, I went to Taotao.com to search for comics, and they were all out of stock.

[glx209]: True or not, "Monthly Teenage Frontline" is right, it's Hunger Marketing.

[Idiots don’t catch a cold]: I’ve seen the original work, and the original work and this animation tell a different story at all. These protagonists never appeared in the original work. Even the last girl is just a few characters in the original manga. As a fan of the original work, I have no idea what this animation is talking about, but I have to say something, it's pretty good.

[Fox in the Rye]: I have also seen the original work, but I watched the animation more carefully. In fact, the organization in the manga is vaguely mentioned in the animation. I think this may be a rumor or something?

[Boring time]: Adaptation is not random making up, joking is not nonsense, this production team does this, where to put fans of the original work, I think this production team is the original work shredder!

[Mr. Yang’s Magic Pants]: I can’t say that. I’ve seen the original work and this animation. I think many details of this animation are related to the original work. It even makes me want to re-read the original manga. A lot of foreshadowing.

There are real "Soul Eater" comic fans in the discussion posts on the forum. After watching the animation, they felt as if they had watched a fake "Soul Eater". Finding that there are many details corresponding to the animation, these fans posted a summary post, trying to guess the follow-up development, and soon, these people were dubbed "soul scientists" by other forum members.

After some deduction and brain supplementation, the soul scientists almost restored the whole story. At this time, people discovered that in addition to describing the story of the protagonist, "Soul Eater" also hides another clue, which is about "Soul Eater". :Zero" animation protagonist.

In a residential area in Ningjiang, in the studio of cartoonist A Chuang.

Mr. A Chuang's recent comics are also progressing very smoothly. After reading Xu Rui's planning book, he was inspired to quickly end the procrastinated plot and open a new chapter. At the beginning of this chapter, the protagonists Bai Jianshi and Li Leshen encountered an unimaginably powerful enemy. This enemy hidden behind the scenes seemed to know Li Leshen very well, and made the protagonist team feel deflated everywhere. This kind of thrilling and exciting plot made readers who are used to the routine and exorcising the spirit very addicted , "Soul Eater" quickly rose to tenth place in the "Monthly Teenage Frontline" popularity survey.

Putting down the pen, Mr. A Chuang heaved a sigh of relief. This is the content of the manuscript to be submitted this month. He has completed the drawing of the original manuscript, and the next step is to post the dots and other follow-up processing.

On the last page of this issue, the man behind the scenes finally revealed his true colors, it was Huangfu Xun!

It turned out that after she was wiped out by Li Leshen before, she did not reincarnate, but was captured by another powerful evil spirit and returned with power. Everything is to protect Li Leshen. In the end, Huangfu Xun will sacrifice for Li Leshen, and his soul will become the sword of the protagonist Bai Jianshi to protect Li Leshen together.

This is the brain hole that Mr. A Chuang came up with after reading the planning book, and now he is putting it into practice bit by bit. He is immersed in the joy of creation, and even forgot that the animation of his work was broadcast last night. matter.

There was a vibrating sound from the mobile phone. Teacher A Chuang saw that it was Li Ruoxuan, the editor-in-chief, and connected the call immediately.

"Hey, editor Xueluo, my manuscript will be handed in the day after tomorrow, so don't worry."

Teacher A Chuang subconsciously thought that Li Ruoxuan was here to urge the manuscript, so he opened his mouth and said.

"Ah, that's great. No, no, teacher A Chuang, I have other things. Our editor-in-chief just told me that the cover of the January issue published at the end of this month will use "Soul Eater"! And Frontispiece, you have worked so hard to come here with a cover sample in the past two days."

Teacher A Chuang was stunned by Li Ruoxuan's words.

The cover, the front page, these are the honors that only the pillars of a manga have the chance to win, but now, this honor has actually fallen on the head of "Soul Eater", which is something that Mr. A Chuang never dreamed of.

"Also, Mr. A Chuang, the booklet of "Soul Eater" is extremely popular now, and the sales department has decided to reprint it!"

Teacher A Chuang was a little excited. The republishing of the work means that his income will increase a lot, and it also means that the work has been affirmed. This is something an author dreams of. Not very clear.

"Teacher A Chuang, what's wrong?"

The assistant raised his head and asked.

"The booklet of "Soul Eater" is about to be republished, and the cover and front page of this month are also our works. Sorry, Xiao Wei, it seems that we have to work overtime in the past two weeks."

After the excitement, Mr. A Chuang was a little calm. Whether it is the cover or the coloring page, it takes time and energy to create it with heart. Now is not the time to celebrate, but the time to start the war.

buzz buzz --

The phone vibrated again, and Mr. A Chuang took a look, only to find that this was a college classmate whom he hadn't contacted for a long time.

When I picked up the phone, it turned out that it was the classmate reunion next week, and it was five years since I graduated. Teacher A Chuang had always declined the classmate reunion before, but this time because of work reasons, there was no way to make it.

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay, your work is important."

The classmates on the phone didn't say anything. Anyway, one more is not too many, and one less is not a lot. It's enough for the key people to arrive. He was about to hang up the phone, so he said something more.

"By the way, Wu Jian, are you still drawing manga?"

Wu Jian is the real name of Mr. A Chuang. He mentioned in the classmate group that he draws comics before, but at that time he was still a street assistant, so naturally he didn't mention his works.

"Well, yes, let's start serialization."

Teacher A Chuang didn't know why the other party mentioned this, so he replied.

"I heard from a colleague that recently there is an animation called, uh, "Soul Eater: Zero". It's pretty good. It seems to be an adaptation of a manga. You can watch it and learn from it when you have time."

Teacher A Chuang couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the other party's words. After a moment of silence, he could only agree.

"Okay, but the comic I drew is "Soul Eater."

"."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long, long time.
