Zongman: Why is your comic full of knives?

Five days passed in a flash.

Under the closed curtains, the incandescent light in the room was like the eternal oil lamp.

""Huh."

With a long sigh, Nangong Mu, who was working hard at the table, stretched out his body with an excited smile on his face.

"Finally it’s done!!"

Storyboard, line drawing, base color, shadow effects, background texture...

For five days, apart from eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, the rest of the time was devoted to work.

Because he had long been accustomed to such high-intensity work in his previous life, Nangong Mu did not feel tired, but rather missed it.

The final harvest was undoubtedly very gratifying.

《The first episode of"Magical Girl Madoka Magica" is 29 pages in total and is complete!

When it comes to magical girls, the first thing that comes to mind is a beautiful girl with love and courage, who gains special powers under the contract and fights against evil forces.

Since the appearance of this setting, it has gained extremely high popularity among the two-dimensional group.

Although this theme seems more and more childish as viewers grow older and the industry continues to develop, as long as children like it, this theme is still hot!

Even in Nangong Mu's previous life, it was the same.

It was not until the appearance of"Magical Girl Madoka Magica" that this changed the public's concept.

This work first appeared in the form of anime, and then it was adapted into a comic.

Just looking at the first few episodes, this anime seems to be no different from other"Magical Girl" series.

Kawaii image, beautiful transformation clothes, transfer students and cute Kewpie who looks like a doll.

As the embodiment of hope, it is normal for a witch born from the elimination of darkness and despair by a magical girl, right? It was not until the third episode that the heroic senior sister was beheaded that people got goosebumps and realized that things were not simple.

As the subsequent plot is gradually revealed, everyone will know that the so-called witch is actually a magical girl who originally helped others fall into despair.

It was also from then on that the term"magical girl" no longer became monotonous and childish.

More and more conspiracy theories appeared.

Of course, the same old routine will only make people disgusted, and in the later period, people will miss the pure and beautiful image of the magical girl at the beginning.

But as a pioneering work, it will inevitably be remembered.

It happens that the"magical girls" in this world are developing normally as in the previous life, and there is no such work as"Puella Magi Madoka Magica" now.

This is a good thing, but it also troubles Nangong Mu.

The entanglement five days ago resurfaced

"So who should I submit this work to now?"

Shogakukan?

Nangong Mu was worried that if he gave the third chapter to the editor, it would be rejected by the editor, and then such a masterpiece would be cut short.

Kodansha? It didn't seem appropriate either.

"so......Shueisha?!"

Nangong Mu sighed with mixed feelings.

Although he had considered this before creating, Nangong Mu's painting style was more mature, closer to the comic version published by Houbunsha in the previous life, rather than the cute round-faced image in the anime.

But......

"The public's inherent perception has not changed."

A slight change in the style of painting is not enough to change people's prejudice against"magical girls"

"Never mind, just send it first and see."

Even if you plan everything in advance, there may be many unexpected developments in the end. There is no such thing as a perfect plan.

Do your best and leave the rest to fate.

If it is rejected by Shueisha, just submit it to other publishing houses one by one. If the three major ones don't work, there are other smaller ones.

If that doesn't work, just build a personal website online and serialize it for free.

There are always more solutions than problems.

Nangong Mu opened Shueisha's official website and found the official email address

"Hmm? Tezuka Award!?"

"Well, why not just participate?"

Nangong Mu looked at it carefully. If you are selected, you can get 1 million yen for free, 500,000 yen for the semi-selected, and 200,000 yen for the excellent work.

And unlike the Tezuka Award in the previous life, you don't need to send the original manuscript, a scanned copy will do, as long as it is no more than 31 pages, and there is no limit on the length of the story.

Of course.

For works like this, it is most reasonable to enter the competition as a short story

"Since I have to submit it to Shueisha anyway, there's nothing wrong with just participating, right?"

With this thought in mind, Nangong Mu scanned a total of 29 pages, one chapter, packed them all, and sent them over.

""Huh."

The work in hand came to an end. Nangong Mu couldn't help but sigh and looked at the time displayed in the lower right corner of the computer.

16:28

"Is tomorrow Monday? After so many days of rest, if you don't go to school, you will feel that your parents will greet you warmly, right?"

Nangong Mu scratched his messy hair due to being busy with work, and a helpless look appeared on his young face. It is reasonable to rest for a few days because of such an unexpected force majeure event. If you rest for more than a few days, people will worry about whether you have suffered any psychological trauma.

In order to avoid such a bad thing from happening, even the two"wandering" elderly people outside rushed back overnight, and naturally they had to return to school on time tomorrow.

"After all, there is still a lot of time to relax. Next, should I read novels, comics, or play games? ?"

It seems that sometimes too many options are not a good thing~
