Lin Yuan will not slow down the update progress of "The Prince of Tennis" just because it is about to end. Anyway, there are new comics on standby at any time. However, the readers of this comic are feeling more and more reluctant to let it go.
This can be seen from the comments in the comment section.
“I really hope Shadow will continue to paint!”
"I'm a fan of the novel, and I just opened this comic with the mentality of just reading it, and then I was immediately hooked. Now it's like I have to experience the finale of Prince of Tennis twice in a row."
“I really don’t want it to end!”
“Personally, I feel that The Prince of Tennis is a classic and successful case of a novel-to-manga adaptation. The other comics adapted from novels are basically rubbish. Only this one has restored the essence of the original work and used the style of comics to let us enter the world of tennis more intuitively.”
"Shadow can't do anything about it."
"Because the novel ends at this part, the novel is short so the comic is also short. If you want to continue drawing, Shadow himself will have to come up with the original plot, which is obviously not realistic. After all, Shadow is just a pure painter."
"What do you mean by pure painter?"
"Same question, just got into comics."
"Comics by pure painters need to find script writers to cooperate, that is, screenwriters to provide stories and then draw, or novels like "Prince of Tennis" are adapted into comics. The advantage of this form is that cartoonists can spend more time on painting skills because they spend less time on conceiving stories."
"So that's how it is."
"If you can't tell the difference, you can pay attention when you read comics. If there is original work: so-and-so, comics: so-and-so, then that is the product of the separate collaboration between the cartoonist and the scriptwriter. If it is directly written as edited and drawn by so-and-so, then it is the independent creation of the cartoonist. Although Shadow-sensei is a newcomer in the circle, he is already considered a very good pure painter."
"… "
There are roughly these two working modes in the comics circle. It’s hard to say which one is better because different people are suitable for different methods.
For example, the famous teacher Takeshi Obata, his representative work "Hikaru no Go" was written by others but he was responsible for the drawings.
By the way, the previously mentioned “Dream Eaters” was also written by someone else, and drawn by Obata Takeshi.
Because his painting style is very beautiful and he is a very pure painter.
For example, the Earth-original anime "Food Wars! Shokugeki no Soma" was actually also a separate collaboration.
The screenwriter is Yuto Tsukuda.
The painter is Shun Saeki.
Shun Saeki is the book teacher we mentioned before.
Another example is "One Punch Man", which was also created separately by the artist and the screenwriter.
Here's another guess.
You might as well think about "Detective Conan" which has been serialized on Earth for so many years. Are all the cases in it thought up by the cartoonist
In fact, there is a high probability that the plot of this comic is no longer created by one person...
Comics can be a win-win situation through cooperation, or one person can hold up the sky.
A great pure artist can create a masterpiece when encountering a good plot. Obata Takeshi is considered a representative of this type of pure artist.
There are many people who can create masterpieces by drawing and editing their own works, isn’t "Naruto" one of them
Here is a special example.
There is a comic called "Attack on Titan", which is a typical and recognized classic masterpiece with poor drawing skills but great content (I don't mean to be negative, I just like this work very much).
So when it comes to comics, neither the pictures nor the plot is more important.
Both are very important.
But in general, those cartoonists who can draw well and design the plot well are more awesome, a bit like being both civil and military.
And in many people's fixed impression, Shadow is just a pure painter.
This is also the reason why Luo Wei subconsciously felt that it was a bit unreliable when she heard that Lin Yuan was planning to create his own original comic plot.
Luo Wei has always believed that Shadow, like herself, belongs to the category of pure painters.
…
There are many people in the comics circle who are following the progress of "The Prince of Tennis".
In fact, as this comic is about to come to an end, many people in the tribe's background have begun to contact Shadow and want to cooperate with him.
Of course, it is a separate creation mode.
Some publishers directly expressed their willingness to provide the plot and simple storyboards and let Shadow, a pure artist, do the painting.
Obviously.
The tribal serialization of "The Prince of Tennis" has been very successful, and has given Shadow the label of a pure painter.
"Why don't you consider cooperating with the publisher?"
Noticing the private message from the backstage, Luo Wei secretly mentioned this to Lin Yuan:
"If you want to draw a food comic, you can also find a screenwriter who is good at this kind of plot. You don't even need them to provide the script. Your script is already very good."
“That’s not necessary.”
Of course Lin Yuan understood Luo Wei's concerns, but he had no way to explain his situation unless he took the initiative to reveal his two aliases.
"All right."
Seeing that Lin Yuan had such a strong desire to create, Luo Wei stopped trying to persuade him.
Anyway, Shadow has already gained fame. When Lin Yuan finds out that he cannot come up with a plot as good as that of "Prince of Tennis", he will naturally give up the idea of originality and become a pure painter.
After get off work.
Lin Yuan was about to leave the studio when he suddenly received a call.
"Hello."
Lin Yuan answered the phone.
The other party was stunned for a moment, then asked uncertainly: "I am Han Jimei from Tribal Literature. May I ask... is it Teacher Chu Kuang who took the call again this time?"
Lin Yuan was also stunned.
He looked at the caller ID and found that the call was from Yingzi's number, and this woman named Han Jimei seemed to have looked for Yingzi last time.
"right."
Lin Yuan coughed.
Han Jimei smiled strangely and said, "What a coincidence! I called twice and it seemed that it was Teacher Chu Kuang who answered the phone for Teacher Yingzi..."
"He's taking a bath."
Lin Yuan made up a reason.
Han Jimei suddenly fell silent, and it seemed that there was something wrong with his breathing. After a long while, he stammered, "Did I disturb you two..."
Lin Yuan said: "It's okay, just tell me and I'll pass it on."
Han Jimei seemed to have a sore throat and even coughed: "I called to ask if Teacher Yingzi is interested in serializing a new comic book on the tribe?"
Lin Yuan frowned: "Continue to serialize for free?"
Han Jimei said quickly: "The situation is like this. Our tribe recently opened an online comics website. This is a comics platform that adopts a paid model, and then we will divert traffic through the tribe..."
"I'll think about it."
"you?"
"Yes."
"Well... uh... I didn't expect you to make decisions for Shadow... You two really have a very close relationship..."
"… "
Lin Yuan almost forgot about this, his eyelids twitched: "Let's do this for now, we can use text messages later instead of making calls so often."
"Okay."
Han Jimei is very easy to talk to.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yuan felt that he had to find someone to help him deal with these things as soon as possible.
Otherwise, your identity will be messed up sooner or later.
