I’m drowning in various thoughts, and Seon-hee hits me.

Seon-hee asked when he got out of the mess.

“Actually, I have drawn a few pages.”

do you have anything drawn?

I was so absorbed in drawing these days, wasn’t it an illustration?

“Can I see?”

Seonhee nodded her head vigorously at my question, then hurriedly went to her seat and brought a manuscript this time.

About 10 or so.

It looks like he drew everything by himself, even with ink.

Of course, the tone work is missing.

But from the first page, it’s not serious.

In detail alone, it looks more complicated than Akira’s urban background.

Upon closer inspection, the ruler appears to have never been used. Still, it’s pretty neat. Of course, the human feeling is stronger than the mechanical precision like the usual drawings.

Even so, you can feel that it was deliberately drawn.

And the first scene is a close-up of the top of the building.

uh? This is a scene I’ve seen a lot.

Ghost in the Shell?

matrix?

But, strangely, it is not a person but a black cat at the top of the building.

What?

Having a cat on top of a building is a strange and fun feeling.

Such a cat’s gaze is directed somewhere. She is a woman in a black suit on the roof of the same building.

Looking intently at something with futuristic binoculars.

She looks like some sort of spy, but it also has the feel of Ghost in the Shell. Of course, by today’s standards, Ghost in the Shell hasn’t come out yet.

If you look at the direction of the screen, it seems clear that the story proceeds from the cat’s point of view.

So, like Gon, animals are the main characters?

It’s kind of like cyberpunk from a cat’s point of view.

That’s why, even though it’s a complicated picture, it feels surprisingly light and effortless.

It feels completely different from the existing cyberpunk.

After a moment, the woman, who had stopped, picked up an object from her side and brought it to her ear.

There are no lines at all, so I don’t know what he’s talking about, but I do know that the thing he brought to his ear was a phone.

By the way······.

It’s not a regular phone, it’s definitely a smartphone.

Even the simple design even the finger gestures when answering a call.

It’s definitely a smartphone.

This is really the stuff of the future.

“…is this what you thought?”

Surprised, I asked Seon-hee and shook her head left and right.

“no.”

“then?”

“I saw my brother scribbled in the practice field before.”

“What?”

Megalopolis in Cat (2)

This is what I drew on the practice field…

Come to think of it, I have a habit of inadvertently scribbling things, and I think I drew pictures of my smartphone at that time.

By the way, when did you see that?

After all, his eyes aren’t just eyes.

I had forgotten that it was just a camera.

But how did you know how to use it?

There’s no way I’d even draw something like that on graffiti.

Have you ever seen a habit?

Sometimes, I may have gotten into a habit of touching things that are unreasonable for my smartphone. A few days ago, there was a time when I held Kyunghee’s hand mirror and played with my hands like touching a smartphone.

I can’t ask this though.

I don’t know if you think it’s weird if you ask too much.

In fact, if it comes out like this, readers might not care too much.

Of course, in the future, I don’t know if this manga will be talked about because it’s a prophecy manga.

Anyway, I just ignored the smartphone and continued to look at the picture.

A woman in a black suit is looking at the opposite high-rise building, and she abruptly jumps up from her seat, opens the black bag she had left beside her, and takes out her gun-like object from there.

Then she aimed at the tower on top of the building she was watching and fired.

However, as soon as it is released, the metal sticks out and turns into a gripping object as soon as it hits the pylon.

After confirming it, the woman fires one more shot at the steel structure on the roof of the place where she is now standing. At that moment, a fine line was connected between the two buildings.

The line goes so far as to be seen or invisible.

Then I started putting a small handle on the string. And she flies her body through the buildings.

At that moment the cat jumped and hung on her woman’s back.

A woman, startled by the sudden situation, looks back at the cat hanging on her back with her bewildered face and sighs with a look of helplessness.

Probably because it is impossible to drop a cat from a high-rise height.

And since it’s a moment when you’re moving on a fast line, you don’t have time to worry about anything else.

Just before arriving at the opposite building, the woman pressed the button on the machine she was holding, and this time she began to fall.(Read more @ wuxiax.com)

A woman who falls with great speed.

Nevertheless, the cat does not fall from the woman’s back.

And at some point, the woman’s body is strongly bounced off the factory and goes forward.

The woman hung her rope and fell, and when the rope ended, her body was thrown out toward the building in a recoil.

In the blink of an eye, she arrives at the glass wall on the floor she was aiming for.

At that moment, the woman threw something at it.

At the same time, a change occurred in the window of the building, and a woman jumped into it.

Of course, with the cat hanging on its back.

However, instead of breaking the window, the woman passes through it like a film of air bubbles. And then it goes back to normal.

As the woman enters through the glass and is about to roll on the floor, a cat jumps off her back.

She gives a look of absurdity when a woman who has landed nicely looks at such a cat. Then she immediately begins to inspect her interior, prompting the cat to ‘shhh quiet’.

The scene just ends here.

A series of consecutive scenes is as natural and interesting as a movie.

Thanks to that, I can’t take my eyes off of it, so much that I forget about the pictures with amazing detail.

Quite immersive.

It was the first time I knew that lack of dialogue could be such a strength.

Even in cyberpunk.

by the way······.

“Is there no more behind this?”

Seonhee shook her head at my question.


“no.”

“What about Conti?”

“No such thing.”

“What?”

“Just whatever comes to mind.”

“·················ogue.”

I have nothing to say.

So, is this manuscript just like making a storyline?

“How long did it take to make this?”

“It took a long time.”

“long?”

“Huh. One day.”

One day on page 10.

Considering that it is a manuscript completed by herself, it may feel fast, but considering Seon-hee’s speed, it is never fast.

Of course, I don’t know exactly how much time that day took.

If you ask me, I’ll probably say I don’t know.

“time is?”

“······I do not know.”

Also.

Anyway, it’s a pretty interesting cartoon.

Even without dialogue, it’s quite entertaining.

“If you create a story that comes to mind from time to time, it is not certain whether this is an episodic method or a continuous writing method.”

“Huh. I just do whatever comes to mind.”

You’re just telling the story in a stream of consciousness.

Nevertheless, once the start is quite impactful, and the immersion is good.

The flow is so good that you don’t even notice the amazing picture.

Then Seon-hee looked at me and asked.

“What do you think?”

“Good. If this feeling continues, I think it will be quite good. After a few episodes are complete, let’s pierce it.”

He smiled a little to see if he liked what I said, and then went back to his seat with the manuscript.

a few days later.

Two of Seon-hee’s cartoons, which she is working on by leaving it to the stream of consciousness, have been completed.

I saw it a few times during the work, but after seeing it on the first day, I didn’t confirm the story at all.

If you frequently check the story along the way, you will not be able to understand the feelings of the readers who are meeting for the first time.

No, more than that, I was curious about myself.



The story that Seon-hee really wants to draw.

“Can I read it?”

“Huh.”

The story continues again from the cat’s point of view.

The biggest reason to feel the cat’s gaze is the point of view.

Low point of view when the cat is looking from the floor.

As you go up to a higher place, the viewpoint increases at the same time.

Of course, depending on the scene, there are quite a few scenes that are not from the cat’s point of view. However, seeing the frequent appearance of the cat’s point of view, the impression that the cat is the main character is strong.

Anyway, since there are no lines, the eyes naturally focus on the picture, and there is no choice but to judge the content by looking at the information provided by the picture.

Still, the flow of the story is smooth.

Admiring the film-like directing, he began to focus on the story again.

The moment the cat broke into the room, what the cat saw, the fur of his body stood up.

The woman looked into the cat’s gaze, but saw nothing.

But then, what caught her eye was the digital clock on the wall at that point.

Maybe the cat wasn’t surprised when he looked at the clock.

There was no explanation or dialogue, so I was curious, but I just kept focusing.

The time is 23:16.

Anyway, intentionally showing the time means something meaningful.

A woman in a black suit wanders around in the dark in a large studio-shaped room. She says the glasses she wears look like infrared glasses that can see through the dark.

The screen alternates between darkness and light, and the bright one seems to be the cat’s point of view.

The cat watches the woman with her eyes glowing in the dark.

The woman carefully walks through the dark.

She looks like she’s looking for something important.

She then turns to the table attached to the bed and turns her gaze to the suitcase there.

A woman examining her suitcase pulls something out of her pocket.

Also, it’s a smartphone.

Then she takes it to her Carrie and pats her finger hard over the screen of her smartphone.

I don’t know how it feels to the average reader, but it’s definitely an app that is running and doing something.

it’s an app

Is it okay to come out like this in this day and age?

However, there is no explanation in the picture, and it is expressed very briefly, so it may be seen as operating an unknown machine. Of course, you know that it is something that includes a phone function.

Anyway, I finally opened the suitcase using what looked like a smartphone.

It seems to have unlocked the lock that was hanging over the wireless connection.

The carrier opens, revealing a complex machine inside.

It looks quite complicated, and it is not known what the machine is for.

When the woman checks it, she runs something with her smartphone again.

A holographic image appears and information about the machine is checked.

However, it seems that the correct information is not displayed, and the woman is troubled as she touches her lips with her finger.

But soon she realizes that she has decided to do something and she works the machine.

Instantly, a change takes place in the space of the room.

A wave from the machine hits the entire room.

However, when the wave disappears, there is no significant change.

The woman looks around the room to see if anything changes. However, he doesn’t seem to know what has changed right now.

A woman who tilted her head puts her smartphone back next to her machine.

She then runs the app again.

The text ‘MAKE A COPY’ appears on the smartphone.

It’s probably copying the whole machine, but it’s literally a smartphone.
