1983 Past Life Manga King

“Anyway, it means that Samsara is so popular in Japan.”

“It would be.”

“Will the proportion of Kalpana increase in the future?”

“It has not been decided yet, but it is highly likely.”

“It is difficult to realize Samsara’s popularity thanks to being in Korea, but somehow I feel proud. Because I think the manga we drew is very popular in Japan.”

Park So-mi spoke with a shocked expression. Then, implicitly, he looks towards Seon-hee.

“The little teacher is really rude, so in times like this, make a little happy tea.”

Then Seon-hee, who was absorbed in the painting with her mouth closed, raised her head with a blank look and opened her mouth.

“happy. A lot of.”

After saying that, she bows her head again and concentrates on her work.

“Ah······. That’s right.”

Park So-mi smiles awkwardly and scratches her neck.

And this time, he looks at me and asks carefully.

“Are there any plans for more Dark Princess comics?”

“You mean Kalpana’s main character manga?”

“Yeah. Personally, I really liked it. It’s cold and charming, so I wish there were more comics like this.”

“Me too.”

Even Koo Ja-hee, who had been quiet until now, intervened in the conversation.

“I want to see you too. He’s my favorite character in Samsara, and this short story is short, but I really liked it.”

“Me too.”

This time with Sung Joon-hee.

It is understandable that some of Kalpana’s charms apply to women.

To be honest, Samsara is a horror manga except for the time loop. As a result, it was true that the maniac tendency was strong. However, as the story progresses,

Crab growth and action were also emphasized. Then, the new villain that appeared this time was Calpana, a gorgeous female character.

Of course, if it had been there, there might not have been much attraction to Calpana.

But with this short film, everything changed.

Even though I wrote the story, which is the basic framework, it is not a character that I completely created because Seon-hee’s emotions were loaded and it became a different form from what I thought.

I don’t even know if Seon-hee filled her delicate emotions and influenced women.

To be honest, the female assistants in the studio are working on Samsarana and Fasiencia, but they tend to have their own favorite cartoons.

Most of them are close to ordinary female comics fans who like famous pure comics. I think they changed a bit after reading The Dark Princess.

It was long, but I never imagined that I would be so engrossed in it.

“I also.”

Meanwhile, Seon-hee sneaked in.

“The little teacher was like that too.”

“Well, I guessed it a little bit after seeing how much effort was put into the drawing.”

As Koo Ja-hee and Park So-mi talked with leaned eyes, Jeong Mi-ja, who was listening next to them, intervened.

“As a fan, you can think that way, but if you want to do a serialization, you need someone to work with. I can’t even handle Pasiencia right now, so I outsourced the background and finish to a different studio.

I am in a situation where I can give it to you.”

“Yes, indeed.”

Just like Jung Mi-ja said.

The short story is also a cartoon that Seon-hee worked with only pencil drawings in the first place. As a result, only a small number of copies were taken experimentally.

But this time, Park Sang-sik intervened.

“Then, how about a short story?”

“snippet?”

“uh.”

“I’ve already drawn a short story.”

“But the story was too short and it was a bit disappointing. So it’s a proper snippet. From what I heard from Akagi-san before, it seems that short stories of about 40 pages are sometimes included.

It was.”

It’s a 40 page short story…

To be honest, after seeing the finished Dark Princess, I thought it was a pity.

It was a short short film made with a light feeling at first, but Seon-hee upgraded it, so my heart was shaken.

But this is not a matter for me to decide on my own.

“Seonhee, maybe a short story…”

“I want to.”

“······Ah. Is that so?”

Seeing you answer the question before it’s even finished, it seems like you’ve been wanting to do it for a while.

Haha, just looking at the drawing of the Dark Princess was so different from the Samsara I used to draw.

But it doesn’t end there.

I immediately called Jiro of the editorial department.

– Yeah. This is Akagi, the Boy Hero Editorial Department.

“Akagi-san, this is Yunhwan.”

End

Boy Hero Editorial Department.

A staff member walks around, handing out A4 sheets to each other.

“The questionnaire results are out.”

“Thank you.”

Jiro, who received the result sheet provided by the staff, checked the ranking.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

In recent results, ‘The Man of Sincerity’ continues to hold the first place, ‘Faciencia’ is closely following him in second place, and Kensho Arai’s ‘Shining’ is third.

Glove’ and 4th place was ‘Samsara’. Of course, there is very little difference between 3rd and 4th, so it could change at any time.

Jiro was expecting Samsara to rise to third place.

A villain who has appeared in Samsara for a while has been raising the interest of the story. In this fan postcard contribution, there are many pictures related to Samsara, especially Kalpana.

Ahjin was the reason.

Now, under his desk, there are a lot of fan letters, illustrations from fans, and gifts from Samsara fans to the artist to bring to Korea next time.

Jiro pressed his nervous heart and checked his paper.

And soon his eyes widened.

“Second place……?”

Surprisingly, Samsara ranked second.

It took second place, beating out Pasiencia, which was always threatening the first place.

Naturally, Pasiencia was pushed to third place.

Because of that, the editorial staff also reacted tremendously.

“Wow, Samsara is second? There is not much difference from the man of sincerity, who is number one, right?”

At those words, even the employee who was immersed in his job checked the questionnaire result with a surprised face.

“It’s true. Samsara finally came in second place. This is the level of being a sincere man.”

“Hey, Tegoshi. Keydo-sensei, I might disappear from my excitement again, so keep an eye on me!”

At the team leader’s words, Tegoshi looked at the questionnaire with a worried expression and said.

“Don’t say that. Anyway, these days, I’m working on muttering the lines of ‘Tomorrow’s Joe’ by Teacher Kido.”

At that, the staff giggled.

Then a new employee interrupted the conversation.

“Honestly, it’s not unusual for Samsara to be number one in terms of book sales.”

“It’s because you don’t know. Considering that the age of buyers in Samsara is higher than that of our magazine’s main age group, 4th place was also great. The questionnaire is also mainly

The readers I come up with are children or junior high school students above them. There is also an analysis that the biggest reason for the increase in sales of boy heroes these days is because of Samsara.”

“Is that enough?”

“Of course. By the way, is the biggest ball in second place thanks to Kalpana?”

“of course. Samsara became more interesting after Kalpana appeared too. At first, it felt like a powerful witch who tormented the main character the most. recent etc.

It was mentioned in the chapter that the existence of Kalpana was different from other villains. That made her more exciting.”

“Me too. In addition, more and more action scenes with cool stories appeared, and the level of immersion increased.”

“At first, there were many reactions that it was a bit heavy. Lately, readers are more enthusiastic about understanding the worldview of Samsara.”

“By the way, Samsara has finally pushed out Pasiencia, which was like a fortress. And what’s even more amazing is that Samsara and Fasiencia are in charge of the same person.”

When someone from the staff said that, everyone’s envious eyes turned to Jiro.

The phone in front of him rang as he was looking for a way out with a look of burden because of that.

In a moment of joy, I hurriedly answered the call.

“Yeah. This is Akagi, the Boy Hero Editorial Department.”

– Mr. Akagi, this is Yunhwan.

Akagi smirked as it was called at the perfect time.

***

The captain opened his eyes wide and asked.

“snippet?”

“Yeah.”

“You mean the Dark Princess sold at this Comiket?”

“Yeah.”

“To Weekly Heroes?”

Jiro just nodded his head without answering this time.

The manager scratched his chin and thought for a moment before opening his mouth.

“The crowd.”

“Never?”

To Jiro’s question, the team leader glanced around and answered in a quiet voice.

“As you know, I’m already running two manga series. However, I don’t think it would be possible to make a short story because of the issue of equity. Of course, Sunny and Tengen are the same author.

Gold is a secret, but it seems like there are quite a few people in the publishing house now, so the story is bound to come out sooner or later.”

“But right now, shouldn’t we have to push when the response is good like this?”

“Considering the atmosphere now, it is.”

The manager said so and scratched his head and spoke again.

“I like the Dark Princess too. It is also in my favor to do a separate short film. As you know, these days, I occasionally work as an editorial department, so readers call the Dark Princess.

There are also inquiries about This time, the second place seems to be because Kalpana appeared in Samsara. But will the editor-in-chief object?”

“I think so.”

Jiro agreed and nodded his head.

To be honest, it was just as the manager said.

While two works are already being serialized in magazines, the publication of a 45-page short is not going to set a precedent for this, even if it is not protested by other editors.

It was highly likely that the editor-in-chief would object.

However, it would be a waste to just bury the short story.

“Well, let’s talk to the editor first. Because there might be a way.”

“Yeah.”

At that moment, someone from the editorial department enters with a leisurely pace.

Then the staff who recognized the person greeted you as well.

“Good morning.”

“Oh, yes.”

A middle-aged man with a skinny body and a blunt-looking face, who gently raises his hand.

The team leader, who recognized him, hurriedly greeted him, and Jiro, who was beside him, suddenly greeted him as well.

“Good morning. Editor-in-chief.”

“It’s Yamada-kun. So, are you the boss now?”

“Yeah.”

The middle-aged man nodded his head and spoke again.

“Yes, is the editor-in-chief there now?”

“Yeah. You will be in the break room.”

“Okay. Thank you.”

Saying that, he passed them by.

Jiro glanced at his back and asked in a low voice.

“Who?”

“Ah, you probably don’t know, he was the editor-in-chief here before and then went on to become the editor-in-chief of the monthly magazine Big Hero. The deputy editor at that time is now our editor

Go.”

“Ah.”

“But he has been here for a really long time. The department isn’t too far away. What’s going on anyway?”

“·················ogue.”

The two men looked back toward the common room he had walked into.

*

“Ah, Sudo Editor-in-Chief. Long time no see.”

The editor-in-chief Sudo, who was sitting in the break room smoking a cigarette and drinking coffee, was surprised to see a person entering the break room. He was the editor-in-chief of Kojima, his former boss.

“Oh, editor. What’s going on here…?”

“What happened? It’s right in front of you, so you can come.”

“Yeah, though.”

“Well, actually, I just heard the news.”

Saying that, he smiled with a mischievous look.

“News?”

“Did you say you gave the managing director a disgrace?”

“Yeah?”

Surprised, editor-in-chief Sudo immediately put on a puzzled expression. Then he looked around and he said in a small voice.

“That was done by the boss, not me. What kind of power do I have…”

Editor-in-chief Kojima giggled at those words.

“That damn manager ran wild all this time and met the owner properly.”

“Who are you framing Imja?”
