Fans and audiences certainly don’t have the ability to predict the future.
After the initial tears of emotion, the audience who once tried to send razor blades to the dog thief gradually calmed down, and their evaluation of "One Piece" also became objective:
“It looks great!”
"Although I wanted to give up watching the show at one point, and even doubted whether it would end, I didn't expect the subsequent development to be so smooth. It's really amazing. It seems that all the torture and discomfort in the early stage were for the explosion at the last moment. The music in the middle is also very memorable. It is worthy of being called "Hua Ying". "
"What a pity for the Merry..."
“To be honest, before I watched One Piece, I saw so many people crying over a ship on the trending searches, and I was thinking, it’s just a pirate ship, what’s the big deal? Until I finished the series myself and walked the same path as the Golden Merry in the Art Paradise... Now I just want to burst into tears, wuwuwuwuwuwu my Merry...”
Not just a fan of One Piece.
Professional film critics in the industry have given high praise to the plot of the Judicial Island chapter. Shen Nian, the editor-in-chief of Anime Online, wrote in his column:
“The plot is very touching, but what moved me even more was the patience and courage of the author of One Piece in planning the plot.”
"In today's entertainment-oriented era on Blue Star, few comic book authors dare to make such an attempt. The fast-paced market will not give them such an opportunity, and audiences who are used to fast-paced film and television works also lack the patience to wait for the plot to be 'redeemed'."
"This is the luck of One Piece, but also its misfortune."
"Unfortunately, there is no soil on the blue planet right now that can accommodate works like One Piece. But fortunately, Kaei Animation is trying its best to cultivate such soil. And One Piece is the stepping stone that Kaei Animation has carefully prepared for this era - and it turns out that they succeeded."
"One Piece does not represent an exception, but a beginning."
Overwhelming praise.
As frustrating as the depressed and irritable days were in the past, the fans of "One Piece" are now so proud that they have basically entered a state of "as long as you praise "One Piece", we are friends", and high-rise chat rooms have been opened one after another in various forums.
Title: Suddenly I feel a little envious of fans of other animations.
Content: Today, I suddenly had the urge to look through my records of following anime over the years, and I discovered that my history of following anime is simply a bloody and tearful history of being stabbed in the back by a thief.
That harem anime with a love story and the male protagonist being torn into pieces at the end is still a psychological shadow for me. I used to be so excited to watch it, but now when I watch it again, I can't help but worry that the male protagonist will die without a complete body; not to mention the magical girl anime, my friends who got into it because of my false advertising have not forgiven me yet.
Now it’s One Piece: Merry.
Although the knife is a testament to the quality of the animation itself, but being stabbed in the back every now and then... Is this the fate of fans of the animation? [Sigh]
1st floor:? I suspect you are showing off, but I have no evidence.
2nd floor: To be honest, I am actually a little envious. Although I cried a lot because of the stabbing, it is also because the animation itself is very good and easy to empathize with. Some animations can't make people cry like a dog even if they want to.
Floor 3: No no no, wake up upstairs! You will be pua by the dog thief if you keep doing this!
4th floor: Although, isn't this metaphor a bit too cruel? Not really, really not, calm down. Those of you who say you envy me probably haven't experienced the death of Sherlock Holmes. It was so painful that I wanted to send the blade back!
5th floor: Let me just say quietly, actually the person next door is also a little envious...
…
Among the posts praising One Piece, this theme does not stand out.
As usual, after expressing their indignation and condemnation of the inhumane and outrageous behavior of the dog thieves, the netizens scattered like birds and beasts. What really pushed this post to the top was not the discussion of netizens at that time, but the behavior of several netizens who posted notes later.
To put it simply, the so-called posting means to directly post your reply on a certain layer of replies, which is called "floor within a floor".
When the Naruto fan on the 5th floor expressed that he was a little envious of the recent high-quality plot of "One Piece", this reply did not cause any response. After all, although the plot of "Naruto" at that time was still exciting, it was not as unforgettable as "One Piece" of the same period.
Up to this point, everything is normal.
Until half a year later.
I don’t know who pushed this post up again, and started a three-year-long cross-time and space dialogue on the 5th floor:
"Don't be envious, don't be envious. Who doesn't have a brother?"
"? No way, no way, there are no people who think that Uchiha Itachi, who killed the entire Uchiha clan, should not die? Is it true that people's worldview is determined by their appearance? [This entry has been edited]
Edited, stop cursing, stop cursing, the child has cried himself silly, why is Uchiha Itachi so nice, wuwuwuwu—"
"Although some protagonists have neither brothers nor fathers, they still have a shameless master picked up from outside the women's bathhouse^_^"
So, several years later, when someone pushed this post up again, netizens who accidentally clicked on it saw a series of notes at the bottom of the fifth floor in the front row at a glance.
"???"
"Fuck, which idiot pushed this post up again?"
"Hahahaha, I'm not crazy, I'm not crazy o((≧▽≦o) I'm already a mature fan of the dog thief, it's time I learn to slash myself! Didn't Uchiha Itachi die? Didn't Jiraiya sacrifice himself? Didn't the boy I like live like a joke for half his life? I can still slash!"
"Please be a decent person. Being stabbed by a thief is fine, but being killed by a post from three years ago while browsing a forum is too tragic, isn't it?"
Of course, this is all in the future.
At present, the plot of "Naruto" has not progressed to the place mentioned in the post, and with the end of the plot of "One Piece" Judicial Island, the storm caused by the Merry has gradually subsided. It was not until three years later that countless fans of the Shadow Blade recalled this year and unexpectedly discovered that this seemingly ordinary year was exactly the "original year" of the Shadow Blade.
This year.
"Naruto" bids farewell to the third generation Hokage.
"One Piece" reveals Robin's twenty-year escape. In the sea of fire and snow, the Straw Hat Pirates bid farewell to the Golden Merry.
In the Triwizard Tournament after an absence of several years, Voldemort announced his return, and a young man named Cedric accidentally died from an evil curse. As all the students in the Hogwarts Hall observed a moment of silence, the magnificent and dreamy magical world took off its fairy-tale veil, revealing the tip of the iceberg of cruel reality.
It was at this time that fans of "One Piece" breathed a sigh of relief.
As we all know, no one will die in One Piece.
Throughout the series of One Piece, no matter the villains beaten by Luffy or the supporting characters caught in disasters during the journey, no matter how big the crisis is, everyone can finally get out of it. Sacrifice does exist, but it is limited to the past that the characters carry.
In other words, in terms of the "present tense", "One Piece" is the safest.
While the audience was still rejoicing over the immortal tradition of "One Piece", Mu Suxing was watching the follow-up content of the "One Piece" animation project.
Strictly speaking, "One Piece" actually consists of two periods.
Although the early storyline also mentions the setting of the world view, it focuses more on the sea adventure of the Straw Hat Pirates. The adventure in the later period is still an adventure, but the rhythm of the plot is more aggressive. On the other hand, the dark plot mainly based on the Revolutionary Army gradually begins to stand out layer by layer.
What divided all of this into two was the largest-scale and most far-reaching war at the top, which brought together the top combat forces of several parties.
In this war, Luffy will suffer the most painful defeat in his life, and learn to grow up while fleeing in panic and crying bitterly. The world structure in "One Piece" will also undergo earth-shaking changes, and the plot of the animation itself will also move towards another new turning point.
But now...
Mu Suxing glanced at the fans who were celebrating online. The key plot of the war at the top is still at least a year away, so before that, let's not break the audience's fantasy and let them be happy for a while longer.
As for what's next -
Putting down the animation plan for "One Piece" in his hand, Mu Suxing quickly picked up another report. When he opened the report in his hand and saw the dense lead type on the information, he realized that the Huaying Academy, which was built at the same time as Huaying Paradise and was not completed until June this year, was about to start school.
The report lying on his desk now is not only the feedback and summary of the Huaying Academy, but also the invitation letter to Mu Xuxing for the opening ceremony of the Huaying Academy to be held on September 1st, a week later.
School is about to start
Until Mu Xuxing was invited to attend the opening ceremony of the Huaying Academy as the honorary principal and was about to give his final speech in the auditorium, Mu Xuxing still had a vague feeling of unreality.
but.
He looked up at the tall buildings rising from the ground outside the auditorium, at the spacious and bright classrooms he had walked through yesterday, and thought of the expensive but most advanced and practical animation equipment that Huaying had bought at a high price. Finally, he retracted his gaze and looked at the expectant faces below the auditorium.
It was indeed a very wonderful feeling.
It was as if, not long ago, he was one of them, with a passion for the animation industry and the most beautiful vision, he couldn't wait to step into this circle, but in the end he could only struggle in front of the barriers of reality, and in the long, tedious and hopeless years that followed, he numbly wasted his life.
It seems like a lifetime ago.
But if you think about it carefully, isn’t it also a different world
Thinking of this, Muxuxing suddenly laughed. It was because so much time had passed, but when he thought of it, his past life would always appear clearly in his mind. It was also because after climbing countless mountains, he finally saw the vast sky in this life.
"It's your turn to speak, Director Mu!" Fang Lian raised his elbow and nudged him: "What are you thinking about? Why are you so distracted?"
Muxuxing smiled.
"Nothing, I was just thinking about what to say in my speech later," he said.
Stand up and walk to the podium.
