The next day, Mu Suxing went directly to the "Naruto" project team.
It's not that he is biased, it's just that "One Piece" has just progressed to the stage where Princess Vivi appears, and there is still quite a long plot before the subsequent Judicial Island chapter, while the Chunin Exam chapter of "Naruto" will be broadcast on the weekend next month.
The so-called Chunin Exam, as the name suggests, is the exam for Genin to be promoted to Chunin in the animation.
Without a doubt, this is one of the best chapters in Naruto.
—It is also an important reason why the Huaying animation team has been working overtime frantically recently.
“… Although I know that battle scenes are the core of hot-blooded comics, to be honest, the battle scenes in Naruto are really too difficult to make.” As an animator in the project team, Dai Yuyan, who has always been rigorous and hardworking, couldn’t help but sigh to Mu Suxing in private: “It’s really too strong.”
"In trouble?"
Dai Yuyan nodded, then shook her head: "It's not that it's troublesome, but it's really too much work. There are too many battle scenes in this part, and the battle scenes themselves are the core. Every detail must be done to the best. It's still a bit of a headache to take care of all of them."
As she spoke, she secretly glanced at Mu Xuxing's expression.
Mu Suxing certainly didn't miss the other party's little move. He raised his eyebrows and said straight to the point, "What's the matter?"
Dai Yuyan coughed lightly and said, "I heard that the matter at Huaying Paradise has come to an end?"
"Almost. The rest will be handled by a special person in charge." Mu Suxing replied. Seeing Dai Yuyan's hesitant look, he couldn't help but laugh: "Okay, I get it. Anyway, I have nothing to do recently. If you are undecided and don't know how to deal with any problems, let me handle it."
"Long live the boss!" Dai Yuyan cheered softly, turned around and went into the office hall to announce the good news.
With the addition of Mu Suxing, the progress of the "Naruto" project team has indeed accelerated a lot, which makes the "One Piece" project team next door, who are also bald, envious. Originally, this was just a trivial change in the internal work of Huaying, but in an interview, an employee accidentally let it slip.
As a result, the news that "Mu Suxing returns to the Naruto production team and the animation plot may usher in a major turning point" instantly made headlines on major anime websites.
Many viewers who have been following the Naruto animation suddenly became excited.
"Is it coming?"
"To be honest, the recent plot is actually quite interesting. The deaths of Haku and Zabuza really hurt me, but these feel more like side plots, not the main plot of the animation. Since Xingxing has returned to the production team, Kakashi's return to Konoha should be part of the main plot, right?"
"Ahh, I'm so excited. It's been a long time since I've watched an animation in which Xing Xing himself participated!"
The audience is naturally looking forward to it, and many fans who love analysis even posted in various forums, trying to analyze the next plot through clues in the animation. For a while, the Naruto sections in major forums were unprecedentedly lively, and the voices of netizens discussing were everywhere, and high-rise buildings were built one after another.
The pirate fan next door: qaq
Isn't it just Xingxing's end? Isn't it the climax that's coming? Our Snow Island is also super beautiful and exciting, okay? Is it that Chopper is not cute, or that the plot is not touching? We are not jealous, we are not jealous at all... Damn, why did Xingxing come out in person next door
Is "One Piece" worse than "Naruto"
They don't accept!
Time has come to April amid the anticipation of Naruto fans and the resentment of One Piece fans.
I have to say that the plot of the Chunin Exam is undoubtedly one of the most exciting chapters in "Naruto".
Kakashi's team returned to Konoha Village and soon disbanded. The trio felt dissatisfied with their own weakness because of their experience in Wave Country. At the same time, with the strong appearance of Gaara and others, the audience also learned about the existence of the concept of "Chunnin Exam".
It’s like climbing a peak - the story of Naruto has entered a new chapter from now on.
As the Chunin Exam begins, more and more new characters with distinct personalities appear, including powerful enemies from other villages and competitors from the previous session. From the seemingly tedious and complicated written exam, to the perilous Death Forest, to the final two-on-two showdown.
There is a confrontation of beliefs and a contest of wisdom.
The passion that is unique to boys’ animation is fully displayed here, but “Naruto” does not stop there. In addition to the thrilling and thrilling battle scenes, there are also hidden plots quietly unfolding: the death of Gekkou Gale, the conspiracy of the Sand Ninja, and Orochimaru’s covetousness for Sasuke…
When Orochimaru used the forbidden technique of "Impure World Reincarnation" and the first and second generation Hokage of Konoha Village stepped out of the coffin, all the spectators were shocked.
"Fuck, this is even possible?"
"Although I am worried about whether Konoha can escape this disaster, I have to say that the battle setting of Naruto is really interesting. The same goes for the Impure World Reincarnation Ninjutsu. It feels both buggy and cool. It's a pity that the current protagonists can't intervene in this level of battle. I am looking forward to the sequel of this animation more and more."
"It's so cool! This is a passionate animation!"
"I prefer the scene with Nara Shikamaru. Fist fights are too common in boys' comics, but battles of wits are rare. Shikamaru's character is also very appealing to me. I hope there will be more exciting battles of wits later! If this quality is maintained, this animation can be said to be a textbook for hot-blooded comics."
"Ah, I can't wait to see the sequel! If the opponents are the First and Second Hokage, how will the Third Hokage solve it? I'm so curious!"
Not just the web.
Along with the broadcast of "Naruto", in reality, in countless universities, middle schools, and even elementary school classrooms, people were enthusiastically discussing this animation that was being broadcast, and some even argued over the fighting power between two characters. People who had not watched this animation, after following the trend and watching a few episodes of the Central Ninja Exam, also fell into the pit and began to follow the show with relish.
For a while, most of the blue planet was filled with news related to "Naruto".
The popularity of "Naruto" is rising steadily, and the subscriptions are booming. But the same cannot be said for "One Piece".
To be honest, the plot of "One Piece" in this period is not bad.
The plot of the animation is still interesting, the Straw Hat Pirates are still the same pirate group, and the story proceeds in an orderly manner with its unique logic. Under normal circumstances, such a plot is enough to get a lot of praise - if the animation that has been competing with it for the top spot on the click-through list for a long time is not "Naruto" from the same company as Kaei Animation.
"I always feel like something is missing..."
"Are you guys overthinking it? I think the animation of One Piece is still very good. It just so happens that the plot of Naruto has gradually improved during this period. Isn't it normal that the plot of One Piece itself is in a transitional period and is not as attractive as Naruto?"
"It's not that the quality of One Piece has deteriorated, it's that our appetites have become spoiled, right?"
"Compared with animations from other companies, One Piece is indeed impeccable. The problem is that this animation has been benchmarked against Naruto since its launch. Now Naruto is getting better and better, but One Piece is still at the same level as when it first aired. Although there are no major problems, I still feel a little disappointed..."
"Wait a little longer, it should just be a transition."
Just when fans were expecting Animation to release more interesting "One Piece" plots, the subsequent animation plots not only did not improve, but suddenly took a sharp turn for the worse -
While the audience of "Naruto" was excited about the newly appeared Akatsuki organization, on the other side, the Straw Hat Pirates, who were facing "Aokiji", one of the three admirals of the navy, were unable to fight back and were almost wiped out.
After finally arriving at the Seven Water City, they were told that the ship they were on, the Golden Merry, was already badly damaged and there was no possibility of repairing it.
Nico Robin, who had gradually been trusted and accepted by everyone, quietly chose to leave with the intelligence organization under the World Government.
The funds for purchasing a new ship were stolen by gangsters on the island.
Because of Luffy's decision to abandon the ship, the angry Usopp challenged Luffy to a fight. After a fierce fight, the defeated Usopp left the Straw Hat Pirates without looking back.
If the plot of "Naruto" is a mountain of twists and turns and excitement, then the plot of "One Piece" is like falling from the peak into the abyss step by step. The Straw Hat Pirates in the animation are torn apart, and the audience outside the animation are speechless due to the successive changes.
Especially when Luffy and Usopp had a big fight and Usopp left the Straw Hat Pirates, conflicts arose among the animation fans:
"You should have left long ago!"
"I say that Usopp is the most useless and worthless member of the Straw Hat Pirates. No one would disagree, right? Not only is he a habitual liar, he is also a worthless fighter. If it weren't for Luffy, a loser like him wouldn't even be able to leave Rogue Town. And now he's fighting with Luffy. I'm afraid he doesn't even know his own weight."
"Ahh, don't!"
"Those who say Usopp is a loser have really watched One Piece carefully? Since when has the value of a character been directly equated with his combat power? To be honest, Usopp's character can be said to be the most realistic and three-dimensional one. He gets scared and hesitates, but he is also growing!"
The audience had different opinions.
Compared to the pure plot discussion on Naruto, the debate on One Piece is obviously more heated, and all of them are dissatisfied with the plot.
“It’s so frustrating.”
"Although I understand that the plot of anime has ups and downs, the recent plot is really uncomfortable. What is this plot trying to express? I really don't understand it. The previous plot was pretty good. One Piece and Naruto originally took completely different routes, but the recent plot really makes me feel confused."
“It doesn’t feel as attractive as before…”
“I hope this drama will pass quickly, and One Piece can quickly return to its previous level. The recent drama is really not like One Piece…”
If the quarrels among fans do not mean anything for a popular animation, then when the time came to Monday of the new week, when the relevant data network of Blue Star announced the data of various animation series as usual, the data that appeared on the weekly rankings made everyone fall silent.
"Naruto" still tops the list.
However, as a show that has occupied the top spot with "Naruto" since its premiere, and whose worst result is only the second place, "One Piece" has fallen out of the top three for the first time in history!
