Tokyo Rebirth: Start From Picking Up Sayu

After picking up Sayu who ran away from home, she begins to be reborn. Tokyo Main Volume 194, Exclusive Interview The next day, Kato Yusuke came to the Immortal River.

After not seeing each other for a while, the old editor-in-chief Suzuki’s face turned red. Needless to say, this must be due to the steady increase in magazine sales.

The two of them were drinking tea and talking, and the topic turned to the recent response to the work.

Up to now, "Chainsaw Man" has been serialized in the magazine to the 33rd episode, and the plot is at a stage where a war is about to begin.

In order to seize the heart of the chainsaw man, the Public Security Section 4 where the protagonist Denji is located is attacked by a killer group.

The killers launched attacks in various places at the same time, and the demon hunters of Public Security Section 4 suffered numerous casualties. Among them, the main character Hime Ye even died because of this, and Denci almost fell into the hands of the enemy.

In the end, Makima, who was far away in Kyoto, took action, using unpredictable means to kill people from a distance, killing most of the members of the killer group, and then saved Denji and his team from dying.

After this battle, Public Security Section 4, which suffered heavy losses, fell into a short training period and faced reorganization.

At the invitation of Makima, Kishibe, who claims to be the strongest demon hunter, served as the captain of the new class 4 and conducted special death training for Denci and Pava.

Hayakawa Akira, who witnessed the death of his partner Himeno in front of his eyes, also lost his abilities because he was hated by the fox demon, so he chose to sign a contract with the future demon.

Since then, the friends who have completed the upgrade of the new 4 classes have regrouped and launched an arrest operation towards the killer group's base camp. The war is about to break out!

…

"But then again..."

The old editor couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"Mr. Fujimotoshu, you were really decisive when you dismissed the character of Himeno. After that issue of the magazine was published, it was the first time that our editorial department received so many letters from readers."

Kato Yusuke didn't think much of this at the time, but he still asked: "Himeno's exit? I remember that it seemed to be the content of last week, right?"

"Ah, that's right."

The old editor nodded, with a wry smile on his face, "But the impact of your knife has never passed until now."

"Influence……?"

"Hey, don't you realize it yourself?"

Seeing Kato Yusuke's puzzled expression, the old editor couldn't help but blinked in surprise and started to explain.

"After all, the character of Himeno not only has a certain charm in itself, but he is also almost on the same page as the protagonist. Why can't he be a passerby character?"

He paused here and sighed sadly.

"Especially since she sacrificed herself to save Qiu Hayakawa. It's hard not to like such a good woman, but she ended up being stabbed to death by you. This is really...sigh..."

"...?"

Kato Yusuke looked at the other person's sighing look, and couldn't help but feel a little weird in his heart, and asked: "Editor-in-chief Suzuki, do you like this kind of good woman character very much?"

"Huh? Well... maybe it's because I'm older and don't like excitement much anymore. I do prefer this kind of gentler good woman to Makima, who everyone likes."

"Is this so..."

What should I say about this?

Although Himeno is a good woman, it is a pity that the good women in this work do not live long...

…

Kato Yusuke thought about it and decided not to tell this cruel fact to the old man in front of him.

——Because he is very gentle.

"all in all--"

After reminiscing for a moment, the old editor patted his thigh and took a tablet from the table next to him, "No matter how much you talk about it, why don't you take a look with your own eyes, teacher!"

"See it with your own eyes?"

"Yes, I'll look for it... There you have it, this is the message your readers posted under our official Twitter account. Please take a look."

"Well, thank you."

Kato Yusuke reached out to take the tablet and looked up curiously.

Appearing on the screen is the Twitter account of "Young Undead".

The latest status was posted yesterday. The content is to celebrate the release of the third volume of "Chainsaw Man". The picture is a family photo of Dentsuki Hayakawa Akipawa.

Kato Yusuke opened the comments with his finger, and countless messages opened up and burst into his eyes.

Miss Makima, my Miss Makima, hahaha~

emmmmmmm.

I don’t know if it’s because he was unlucky and met a fan who was a bad woman and went crazy here.

Kato Yusuke skipped this one and browsed down.

Give Himeno-senpai back, you bastard——!

╯︵┻━┻

Himeno-senpai, my Himeno-senpai, woohoo~

It's obvious that Himeno-senpai has sacrificed his life in exchange for the devil, but nothing can be changed. It's so despairing...

On the fourteenth day since Himeno-senpai's death, I miss her...

When I saw Himeno-senpai die, I felt empty in my heart.

As editor-in-chief Suzuki said, Himeno's plot makes readers who like this character feel like they are mourning for their heirs and cry out in mourning.

Kato Yusuke smiled at this and continued to slide down.

After the above emotional catharsis, the following content began to become normal.

Question, does anyone know what Machima's abilities are? To be able to kill Tokyo's killer in Kyoto is so awesome! Is this really not God?

Where is the god in this comic? This is the world of demons, right? As for Machima's ability...it feels like cursed killing. Maybe she contracted with a cursed demon?

Are you an idiot upstairs? Isn't the cursed demon the spike weapon in Hayakawa Akira's hand?

Compared to these! Don’t you think the composition and storyboarding of that scene are very impactful——? The death row inmate of Makima Shrine is so handsome——!

I know! That scene is really cool! Watching it makes your adrenaline levels soar! Miss Makima is the best in the world!

Woohoo~!

The old editor on the side couldn't help but nodded repeatedly when he saw this.

Although he didn't like the character of Makima very much, when he saw the storyboard for the first time, he was also shocked by the beauty of it.

Even that scene was not a fierce martial arts drama, but an out-and-out literary drama.

High on the mountain and under the dome, the ancient temple is solemn and solemn, exuding a kind of indifferent majesty.

The tall torii gate elongates its reflection in the sun and stands majestically.

In front of the empty temple, neat white stone slabs cover the ground.

Two rows of blindfolded death row inmates were kneeling on both sides with their hands behind their backs, while Makima, wearing a shirt and trousers, stood in the center with an expressionless face, looking heroic.

…

There is no emotion in his indifferent eyes, he is like a god with no joy or sorrow, revealing his indifference to life.

The slender hands crossed backwards and forwards, as if performing some kind of ritual.

Mishima built

Inoue Takashi

Whenever a condemned prisoner repeated a name she had read, Makima would neatly clasp her hands together.

The next moment, the members of the killer group thousands of miles away will explode into a ball of flesh and blood, as if they were crushed by a hydraulic press.

——So terrifying!

Especially against the background of the movie-like storyboarding technique, the style and impact of it are even more highlighted!

Being able to express the tension of this kind of literary drama as well as the martial arts drama is really impressive, and I can't help but secretly think of a monster.

excited! What kind of ability is this! I like Miss Machima so much——! doki～

It was from here that Machima gradually revealed her unusual nature, causing people to speculate endlessly about the devil and ability of her contract.

In addition, there are some other discussions about the work.

This work is simply amazing, not only the story is wonderful, but the characters are also superb!

Although it is great, it is also very evil. This was the first time I saw someone eating orange peels and apple peels, and even treating scabs on their bodies as nutritious foods.

I always feel that the feeling of this work is very strange, as if all the characters are serving the plot. In addition, Mr. Fujimoto is so decisive in getting lunch for the characters, and I have a bad feeling...

Did you find out? The status of female characters in this work is higher than that of male characters. The bad woman Machima, the scumbag woman Pawa, the crazy woman Xiao Xiaohong, each of them has a strong sense of presence!

Hello! The bastard upstairs! Why not mention Himeno-senpai! Don’t good women deserve it? !

'Actually, it's not that she's unworthy, it's just that good women don't end well...' Kato Yusuke thought casually, and finally read a comment with a high number of likes.

As a worker in related fields, leaving aside the plot, what I like most about Mr. Fujimoto is the various techniques in it.

The teacher's painting style combines madness and simplicity, with spirit in simplicity and detail in complexity.

Especially the female characters in it have a cool and cool lines, but they also exude a taboo fragrance like lilies, which is full of charm.

But when it comes to the background and battle scenes, they can be drawn in a sloppy and unruly manner but full of tension, like a mountain rain about to come, which directly hits people's hearts!

"Hey, this is a very good evaluation. Let me look at this ID... Sagano Fumio?"

The old editor-in-chief was slightly surprised, then he calmly thought about it, "It's strange, I haven't heard of this pen name in this industry. Could it be that he is a newbie...?"

Kato Yusuke's eyes moved slightly, some memories emerged in his mind, and his face became a little more surprised, "Sagano Fumio...it turned out to be him."

"Hmm? Teacher Fujimotosuki, do you know this person?"

"I can't say that we know each other, but my friend and I bought his doujinshi when we went to the exhibition."

"Doujinshi??"

"Yes. Fumio Sagano is an illustrator and runs a society called cutiefake."

…

The old editor blinked, with a look of understanding on his face, "... No wonder, it turns out that the other person is a fan creator?"

Kato Yusuke nodded "Yes" and then handed the tablet back to the other party.

"I'm sorry, Editor-in-Chief Suzuki. Because I have other arrangements in the afternoon, can we start today's exclusive interview?"

This matter should start from some time ago.

Since the last time Kato Yusuke was interviewed by a TV station on campus and caused a lot of excitement, the people within the Immortal River also wanted to join in the fun.

——So I asked him to do an exclusive interview with the author while the iron was hot.

But because Kato Yusuke had many things going on at the time, the matter was postponed until today.

As for why he was willing to accept the interview, apart from the fact that it was difficult to refuse the invitation from Fusukawa, there was also a special reason.

——That is to promote your own studio.

After all, with many matters settled, his next focus will be on game production, so he wants to take advantage of the situation to attract traffic to the studio.

Of course, he did not hide these things from Immortal Sichuan, and both parties had communicated in advance.

That's basically it.

After hearing Kato Yusuke's words, Editor-in-Chief Suzuki slapped his forehead and said repeatedly:

"Yes, yes, yes, look at my memory. I forget important things as soon as I chat with you, teacher. I'm so sorry."

Kato Yusuke smiled and shook his head and said no, then picked up the exquisite paper bag placed aside and spoke sincerely.

"Also, before I came here, I brought you some Sayama tea from our hometown, and I also brought some senbei to everyone in the editorial department."

"Wow! Teacher, are you too polite?"

"It's nothing, it's just some small thoughts. I usually take care of you and everyone a lot. If you don't mind, please accept it."

"Oh, teacher, you are so awesome."

The old editor-in-chief Suzuki looked embarrassed.

"Really speaking, we should actually be the ones thanking you. If you hadn't brought such excellent works, how could our editorial department have such a good situation? How could we accept anything from you again?"

"You can't say that."

Kato Yusuke shook his head in denial.

"I just draw comics. Things like review, proofreading, typesetting, and publicity are very troublesome for you. These things are not expensive, so please accept them."

After hesitating for a moment, the old editor-in-chief Suzuki took the paper bag generously.

"Okay, since you insist, then we will accept it shamelessly. Old man, I will say thank you on behalf of everyone~!"

"It's a small thing, you're welcome."

"Then please wait here for a moment. I will ask someone to arrange an interview now."

"Okay, that's my problem."

"Either way, this is what it should be." The old editor-in-chief Suzuki waved his hand with a smile and walked out of the office with vigorous steps.

Kato Yusuke took out his cell phone and casually sent a greeting message to Hui, but he received no reply as if nothing happened.

Because the corner mark on the message didn't show that it had been read, he didn't know whether the other party was busy and didn't see it, or whether he didn't read it on purpose.

It is difficult to draw a conclusion at the moment.

Kato Yusuke stared at the screen for a while, all kinds of speculations flashing through his mind.

These speculations are like transparent bubbles, appearing and disappearing one after another, gradually forming an elusive outline.

He let out a shallow breath, put many thoughts behind his mind, and murmured.

"If the mountain is not mine, I will be the mountain."

Thoughts become clear through this.

…

After finishing the interview, it was noon.

After declining the invitation from Suzuki's old editor-in-chief to have dinner together, Kato Yusuke hurriedly embarked on his journey home.

Since Motoyama Mina would take the afternoon train back to Saitama Prefecture, he had to go back early to keep her company.
