Is this cartoonist mentally ill?

These words can be said to be the first highlight of a new one after a complete transformation!

Whether it is the masculinity and sense of responsibility shown in protecting Li Mei, or the highlight scene of killing Tian Xiuxiong, it is really reliable and enjoyable.

Ke Xinjie also likes the male protagonist Xinyi even more.

"Ahhhhhhh, this male lead is indeed the most handsome!"

She said with some excitement, "I can finally understand the thoughts of the girl in the comics. It's hard not to love this man, Shinichi, who is handsome, kind, and so reliable!"

Compared with Lin Qingshan's previous works, Brand New One is indeed the most perfect male protagonist after transformation.

Because he does have the gentle personality before, as well as the calmness, strength, patience and greatly enhanced physical fitness after the integration of parasitic beast cells. He is actually very handsome in appearance.

This kind of male protagonist is indeed too perfect.

At the same time, because "Parasite" is, in a way, a one-man show for the male protagonist.

The story of "Parasite" basically revolves around the male protagonist, and there are no other important characters.

You also serve as a foil to the male protagonist.

Whether it is the heroine Li Mei, the friend Liang Yu next to the male protagonist, or the Yu Tianshou and Parasite encountered later, they actually do not show any shaping.

Lin Qingshan's previous comics, "Edge Walker" and "Chainsaw Man" are actually proper group portrait comics.

The supporting characters in it each have a higher sense of presence than the other and are well portrayed.

But it also inevitably takes away the role of the male protagonist.

Just like Denji, he is obviously the male protagonist, but his popularity has never reached the top...

What a miserable male protagonist.

But "Parasite" is all about the male protagonist, so his perfection is inevitable.

The popularity of Zhenyi and Xiaoyou is also in the "Parasite" character popularity poll, ranking first and second in Fault.

After Xiaoyou became like a devil's hand this week, its popularity and that of Shinichi's are still at the same level as before.

This also attracted ridicule from comic fans.

"Li Meicai only has 3,000 votes, which is more than 8,000 votes behind Xiaoyou. It's so miserable for a female lead."

"Ah? Isn't the heroine Xiaoyou? (Funny)"

"The gender of a parasitic beast depends on its host. If it lives on a male host, it will be male. If it lives on a female host, it will be female. So there is no doubt that Xiaoyou is male."

"Wrong, that's just the parasitic beast that successfully targets the brain. The gender of parasitic beasts in other parts cannot be determined in this way."

"That's right! How can you assume the gender of our parasitic beast! (Funny)"

"You don't seem to have read the official website settings. Xiaoyou's gender setting says female (neutral), so don't argue, Xiaoyou is the heroine!"

"Really, your wife is your right hand, the old thief Qingshan is really doing it."

"I can only say that I really want to have a wife like Xiaoyou, who is handsome, strong, and very smart!"

"I want to eat shit upstairs!"

"Xiaoyou is indeed very handsome, and the male protagonist is also really handsome. His boyfriend power is MAX!"

"Actually, I also think Tian Xiuxiong was a little unjust. I really didn't want to go on a killing spree. I just wanted to kill him briefly. In the end, my face was smeared with concentrated sulfuric acid, and then I lost control."

"What an injustice. He is still killing people, and he also lied to the hero and Xiaoyou that he would no longer attack humans."

"I can only say that Xiaoyou may be right. Sin and other things are just standards used by humans to measure. But it is absolutely impossible for Tian Xiuxiong to kill someone without paying any price."

"From the perspective of the parasitic beasts, they did nothing wrong. From the perspective of us humans, we didn't do anything wrong either. And I am a human, so I stand on the side of humans."

"Definitely, many times there is no distinction between right and wrong, only positions. Putting aside positions and saying right or wrong is just being a hooligan!"

"There is no absolute right or wrong, but there is no absolute position. It is understandable for humans to deal with things from their own standpoint, but in fact sometimes it is not a bad thing to look at it from another standpoint."

…

Comic Editorial Department.

"Teacher Aoyama is really continuing to draw the story of "Parasite Beast" in depth."

Yang Dahai said with some emotion after reading the latest episode of "Parasite Beast".

This is actually Lin Qingshan's consistent style. He always has his own philosophy, which is completely different from ordinary comics.

Therefore, his comics always have a kind of ideological depth.

This depth of thought has resulted in the reputation of Lin Qingshan's comics never being that bad.

that is……

"The popularity and sales of Mr. Aoyama's comic are not as good as "Chainsaw Man"."

Yang Dahai said with a headache.

This is the so-called success but not box office success. "Parasite" is very philosophical, and the plot has always been centered around the discussion of this philosophy of survival.

But this kind of plot is not what most comic fans like to watch.

Most comic fans, especially fans of "Manga World Gogo", like passionate and bloody battle comics.

"Parasite"... is just a bit bland.

In fact, "Chainsaw Man" is almost the same. The contract with the devil has the ability to fight, but there are no moves.

Moves are actually a very important upgrade point in shounen anime.

For example, Luffy's "first gear" to the fifth gear behind.

But "Chainsaw Man"... No, Denji only transforms into Chainsaw Man and kills all the way from Bat Demon to Domination Demon, without even an upgrade process.

Therefore, the combat plot of "Chainsaw Man" is not outstanding.

But... he has many battle plots, and the plot itself is also very good.

It's just too crazy.

But no matter what, compared to "Edge Walker", "Fist of Fire" and now "Parasite", "Chainsaw Man" is definitely Lin Qingshan's most commercially successful comic work!

This is naturally because although "Chainsaw Man" also has a certain depth of thought, the plot is actually more focused on killing and killing, which is directly satisfying.

It turned into a queue for bento later, and that was also what happened later.

"Sure enough, I shouldn't have promised Mr. Qingshan to stop publishing "Chainsaw Man" and serialize "Parasite".

Yang Dahai said with some helplessness, "Now that "Chainsaw Man" is being serialized, the results will definitely be better, and the sales volume of the single book will be even higher."

Especially after seeing how popular the "Chainsaw Man" trailer was, he regretted it even more.

If "Chainsaw Man" were still being serialized, the magazine's sales would definitely be much higher!

"No... I have to talk to Mr. Aoyama about this next time he finishes "Parasite"."

Yang Dahai murmured to himself and said, "It's better to come back and continue serializing "Chainsaw Man", or the serialized comics will have more commercial value."

However, although "Parasite" is currently not a critical hit, it still has a group of loyal fans, and it has not yet been cut off in half.

And generally speaking, it is almost difficult for an already famous cartoonist to be cut off.

I didn’t see what happened to the giant in the previous life, but it still ended successfully.

Unless the later works are so bad that they can be relied upon for defense, it’s hard to see even loyal fans watching and scolding them.

In that case, if the popularity drops significantly, and the popularity is at the bottom for several consecutive periods, then it can only be cut in half.

Even if it is successful in the past, it will be the same.

That’s the cruelty of the comics industry.

If a successful cartoonist is spurned by thousands of people, he will only face the most tragic ending.

Of course, this situation is really rare...

But it’s not like there’s nothing, isn’t it?

…

Lin Qingshan didn't know that Yang Dahai was already thinking about him going back to serialize the Devil's High School chapter of "Chainsaw Man" or serializing a more commercial comic.

He is as stable as an old dog now.

"Parasite" is not very popular, and that's okay.

After all, with the previous few comics, he can actually eat steadily for the rest of his life.

Some popular cartoonists can live with one work for a lifetime.

Mainly, Lin Qingshan does not have Yang Shuzhun's strong and competitive personality, which is always striving for first place. His life is peaceful and happy, and he feels comfortable and comfortable. He already feels quite satisfied.

But at this moment, he suddenly thought of something.

It seems... the OP of "Chainsaw Man" is out, but the MV is missing a soul?

Then why not make a real-life photoshoot with him!

Give the comic fans a gift, and at the same time continue to help the Trigger Animation production team increase their efforts to promote one.

After all, they all helped bring the "Chainsaw Man" animation back to life, so Lin Qingshan had to show his sincerity no matter what!

So after he completed this week's draft work for "Parasite", he immediately contacted Trigger Animation.

"Wai Wai Wai Wai Wai!"

"Ah? Teacher Qingshan? What's wrong?"

Ming Yiyang was a little confused and asked cautiously.

"It's like this. Oops, it occurred to me that there doesn't seem to be a MV for the opening song. How about we shoot one together as a MV to promote it."

Lin Qingshan said excitedly, "I will appear in real life! Promote it in person!"

"ah?!"

Ming Yiyang was really confused and said, "Teacher, do you want a real person to appear on the camera?"

"What's wrong? Isn't this bad?"

Lin Qingshan said with a smile, "I also wrote the script for the MV!"

Ming Yiyang thought for a while and said, "Well... okay, but for the MV shooting... I'd better contact the singer's company. They should be better at it."

After all, they are an animation production company, not a music and film company.

"OK!"

Lin Qingshan gave a thumbs up.

Just like that, Trigger Animation contacted OP singer Zhang Jie’s agency and helped find a professional team. The three parties came together to shoot a MV.

It just so happened that Zhang Jie was also a fan of Lin Qingshan, so the two parties directly exchanged autographs, and then began hummingly filming the MV for the opening song "KICK BACK" of "Chainsaw Man".

It's just... well, after watching the finished MV a few days later, Zhang Jie, Ming Yiyang and others looked at Lin Qingshan who jumped out of nowhere in surprise, with eyes full of surprise.

This mental state, huh?

Well, it seems right, but it seems wrong.

After all, this is Lin Qingshan... That's okay.

Under such circumstances, the opening MV was successfully uploaded to Station C, and Lin Qingshan posted it using his official account.

This moment attracted a group of comic fans to watch.
