On the mobile phone screen, the plot in the animation continues.
After the protagonist's childhood memory of being bullied because he had no Quirk, the theme song of "My Hero Academia" started. As the song started, the words "Original work - Horikoshi Kohei" quickly popped up, and as the screen changed, the names of the production team and the dubbing team also appeared.
Yin Jianxiu felt a little conflicted.
On the one hand, although he was reluctant to admit it, he was indeed somewhat interested in this animation. This interest made him want to skip the theme song and go directly to the main film. On the other hand, he hesitated about skipping the theme song - skipping the opening was a small matter, but what if he missed the foreshadowing of "My Hero Academia"
With an anticipation that he didn't even realize he was feeling, Yin Jianxiu thought about it and decided not to skip it, but to go straight on.
But then again, the theme song of this animation is actually quite nice.
Thinking of this, Yin Jianxiu picked up his phone and leaned back on the sofa, pretending to be leisurely watching the anime. At the same time, as the theme song, which lasted less than a minute, ended, the main feature of the animation officially began.
The camera is fixed on the building in the hazy night from a bird's-eye view. The whole building is dark, except for one room with lights on. Then the scene naturally switches to the glowing baby.
Starting from this paragraph, there is an introduction to the background setting of the story.
Although Yin Jianxiu had no interest in "My Hero Academia" before, due to the adequate promotion by Yueqi Video and his habit of watching the monthly "new series introduction" on Yueqi Video, he was very clear about the setting of this animation.
Simply put, for some unknown reason, more than 80% of the world's human beings have awakened superpowers, which are named "personality" in the story. The increase in individual power has led to a rapid increase in crime, and in order to combat criminals, a new popular profession, "hero", has emerged.
"As for the superpower setting of personality, it is quite common in boys' comics, but I have never seen the angle of 'professional hero' before," Yin Jianxiu thought with interest: "I wonder how the animation will reflect this point, it feels quite interesting."
As the narration finished introducing the settings about "personality" and "hero", the animation plot naturally showed a battle between a hero and a gangster. At the same time, the protagonist Izuku Midoriya took out a notebook from somewhere and took analysis notes for the battle that had just ended.
“Hey, you’re taking notes. Are you determined to be a hero?” A passerby gave him a thumbs up and encouraged him, “Not bad. Keep it up!”
Perhaps he did not expect such sudden encouragement. The boy was obviously stunned for a moment. After a brief surprise, he suddenly showed a big smile, and his tone was firm and full of youthful vitality: "Yes, I will work hard!"
Up to this point, it is still the common routine of hot-blooded boys' comics.
Yin Jianxiu thought.
If I have to say something, it is that the protagonist's fighting style in "My Hero Academia" is quite special.
He has read countless boys' comics. As a passionate comic, cool and exciting battle scenes are naturally an important part of the anime. However, after watching too many cool fights, one will inevitably get a little aesthetically fatigued. Passionate comics like "My Hero Academia", which use high IQ and high technology to defeat the enemy, are not very common.
From the current perspective, apart from the monologue at the beginning which is pretty good, the other parts obviously do not meet the definition of a "burning" boys' comic.
As he thought this, he casually changed his posture.
It was at this time that the animation's originally soothing overall atmosphere suddenly began to take a sharp turn for the worse at an extremely fast pace!
On the eve of high school application, the head teacher sighed softly, with an embarrassed look on his face. His tone was gentle, but his words were realistic and cruel:
"People with Quirks can study in the Hero Department and further strengthen their own strength through the development and training of their Quirks. Midoriya, I know you have never stopped practicing physical skills in private, but the human body has its fixed limits after all."
"Please think about it carefully."
On the day of filling in the application form, the bad boys in the same class mercilessly ridiculed and mocked me:
"Hey, Choku! Don't say you have a weak quirk. You have no quirk at all! Why are you standing on the same playing field with me?"
The notebook filled with the hero information that he had worked so hard to collect was thrown out of the window. The instigator smiled contemptuously: "If you really want to be a hero so badly, I have a more efficient way. Believe that you will have a 'personality' in your next life, and then do a doggy-like jump from the roof—"
Yin Jianxiu no longer leaned on the sofa like a boneless person.
He frowned, sat up straight all of a sudden, and stared at the animation on the screen of his mobile phone - this meant that he was no longer just watching the animation in front of him with a "try it out" attitude, but was completely immersed in it, feeling genuinely unhappy with the protagonist's experience.
Why is this grumpy durian head so annoying
At this point, Yin Jianxiu had to admit that the production team deliberately exaggerated the characters' expressions. Although it seemed exaggerated, it was actually quite useful. For example, at this moment, seeing the ferocious and hideous facial expression of the durian-haired boy who was bullying Izuku Midoriya on the screen...
Tsk.
If the intention of the production team is to stir up the anger in the audience and attract them to continue watching, then he can only apologize to the production team - well, your provocation is damn effective!
Yin Jianxiu continued to read.
Izuku Midoriya picked up the torn notebook from the sink.
The camera image gradually blurred, and the depressing plot that had been taking a sharp turn suddenly jumped up slightly, becoming bright and lively as the protagonist's childhood memories were introduced.
A lively boy jumping around his mother holding a hero toy.
The heroic video has been played over and over again on the computer more than 10,000 times.
When All Might, the recognized strongest hero in the video, rescued more than a hundred people from the ruins, the soundtrack of the animation suddenly became bright and exciting. The little boy sitting on the chair clenched his fists, and his pure eyes were as bright as stars.
"So cool! If I ever awaken my 'Quiz', I hope I can be like him!"
When Yin Jianxiu noticed it, the corners of his lips subconsciously rose, and his mood naturally became cheerful because of the plot in front of him.
However-
"Let's give up this idea."
The doctor in a white coat sat lazily on the sofa, but the words he spoke were direct and cruel. The relaxed atmosphere lasted less than half a minute before it was shattered by the doctor's emotionless voice. The hero toy that the boy was holding tightly in his hand fell to the floor with a snap, making a crisp sound.
"… Izuku-kun has two joints on his little toe, a very rare form of his generation… that lacks any 'personality'."
The scene turns to the city at night. Raindrops are hitting the deserted streets at night. There is no light in the room, only the light from the computer, which flickers with the video that has been watched more than 10,000 times. The mother standing by the door has one hand on the door handle. The room is quiet, and only the exclamation of the reporter in the video can be heard:
"Can you see that? He has already rescued a hundred people! That's amazing, and it hasn't even been ten minutes! That's amazing!"
A mother who hesitates to speak.
The child sits alone in the computer chair, staring quietly at the scene in the video.
"Mom, no matter what kind of disaster the other person has suffered, he will save them with a smile... What a handsome hero." The computer chair turned gently, and the little fingers trembled as they pointed at the computer screen. The child's eyes were already filled with tears: "Can I... be like him?"
Yin Jianxiu suddenly felt a little overwhelmed.
If the animation had presented such a plot at the beginning, it obviously would not have such an indescribable feeling of sadness. However, the animation had laid enough groundwork before this scene - first the encouragement from passers-by to brighten the atmosphere, then the teacher's denial and the ridicule from peers, and before falling into the abyss, it pulled you out of it and made you recall your initial dreams and aspirations in childhood.
Then the doctor's cold answer plunges the protagonist and the audience's uncertain hearts into the abyss.
The camera cuts back to the present tense.
When Izuku Midoriya stepped into the empty passage, he was covered by the mouth and nose by the enemy who crawled out of the sewer. When he was on the verge of life and death, he was saved by All Might, the hero whom he had admired since childhood.
A glimmer of hope suddenly emerged in Yin Jianxiu's heart.
According to the convention of hot-blooded youth comics, this All Might will obviously be like a teacher to the protagonist. Will his appearance bring a turning point in the protagonist's situation
As expected, when All Might turned around and prepared to leave, the boy immediately stood up, and past memories replayed in his mind again:
"Let's give up this idea."
The five outstretched fingers just froze in mid-air.
"I'm sorry, Izuku, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
"Tell me what abilities you have!? You're just a Quirkless person!"
In the field of vision, All Might's figure was approaching the railing.
"Excuse me, can a person without a quirk also become a hero!?" The boy's voice was trembling, but at this moment the tone suddenly rose: "Can a person without a quirk also become a hero like you?"
All Might turned around.
Amid the exciting background music, the scene freezes from then on, with the two people looking at each other at eye level, and then the camera turns to look down at the entire huge and prosperous city.
Yin Jianxiu blinked his eyes, but before he could recover from his shock, the ending theme song rang in his ears:
"This ordinary me and the world that surrounds me." "No matter how I describe it, or how hard I try to grasp it, it is still so far away..."
Finished
Yin Jianxiu was stunned for a long while, and from the corner of his eye he saw his friend who had also finished watching the first episode stretching. Then he realized that he had just finished watching this animation that he had previously disliked!
Realizing this, Yin Jianxiu inexplicably felt guilty. Reason told him that even for the sake of his last bit of face, he should put down the animation and continue playing his happy game - otherwise, if Luo Gaofeng found out, wouldn't he laugh to death
But…
Looking at the second episode displayed on the My Hero Academia page, Yin Jianxiu wavered again:
Watch it? Or not
While he was hesitating for a while, Luo Gaofeng on the other end had already clicked on the second episode and started watching it with great interest, without even glancing at him from beginning to end.
Yin Jianxiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He firmly believed that the reason why he couldn't stop watching the first episode of "My Hero Academia" was because the rhythm of the animation was so well arranged that he couldn't help but follow the rhythm in it. Until now, he still couldn't help but be itching for All Might's answer at the end of the animation.
Yin Jianxiu knew very well that based on his years of watching hot-blooded youth comics, he could easily guess All Might's answer, which would definitely be an answer to encourage the protagonist. However, the strength of this animation lies in the fact that, although the plot is not particularly special or novel, it relies on the smooth rhythm of the plot to attract him. Even if he could guess the result, he still wanted to see the pictures in the animation.
This immediately gave Yin Jianxiu a good idea:
Since he is only upset about All Might's answer at the end of the first episode, wouldn't it be fine for him to just watch the beginning of the second episode
Not only can he satisfy his inner desires, but he can also avoid the possibility of being laughed at by his best friends. As for the rest of the second episode, isn't it the same to wait until he returns home to watch it
Thinking of this, Yin Jianxiu, who had successfully convinced himself, confidently clicked on the second episode of the animation. Then, Yin Jianxiu, who thought he would face a traditional scene in a shonen manga, got a... a super skinny version of All Might who shrank like a balloon and looked like a completely different person.
What? What happened? Where are the traditional passionate scenes in shonen manga
Yin Jianxiu was a little confused.
Before he could recover from this completely unexpected turn of events, the plot that he had expected, "the idol inspires the protagonist to burst into life and regain his dream", not only did not happen, but it went further and further in the opposite direction -
All Might, looking frail, lifted the hem of his shirt, revealing a hideous wound: "This is the wound I received when attacked by the enemy 5 years ago. Half of my respiratory organs were damaged, and my stomach was completely removed. Because of the successive surgeries and the sequelae, I have become as haggard as I am now."
"Experts are always selfless. I just can't say, 'You can be a hero without any personality.'"
He opened the door to the rooftop without looking back: "It's not a bad thing to have dreams, but... you also have to face the corresponding reality, young man."
Yin Jianxiu's heart sank suddenly.
At this moment, he threw aside the thought of "I'll leave after watching this scene". At this moment, he was as lost as the protagonist in the animation. He failed to get encouragement from his idol, and instead felt like he was poured cold water, which made him even more unwilling.
It was this unwillingness that made him continue watching stubbornly with a sense of regret and unsatisfied emptiness.
The following plot mainly revolves around the enemy that All Might managed to subdue but accidentally let escape when he rescued Izuku Midoriya.
The enemies who regained their freedom caused a riot in the commercial street and took a boy hostage - and this hostage was Bakugo Katsuki, who had been mocking Midoriya Izuku.
This time, the plot of "My Hero Academia" finally returned to the track that a boys' comic should be on.
All the heroes present were at a loss as to what to do against the enemy in front of them. All Might, who arrived in a hurry, was unable to rescue due to his old injuries. It was at this time that Izuku Midoriya, who had been hesitating outside the crowd, recognized the identity of the hostage and rushed forward without thinking!
Yin Jianxiu's eyes lit up.
He knew that the highlight was coming.
However, perhaps for the sake of logic, in the plot of "My Hero Academia", it was not the protagonist Izuku Midoriya himself who exploded his Cosmo, but All Might, who was influenced by his behavior and finally turned the tide and defeated the enemy.
But that's not enough.
After watching Izuku Midoriya’s flashback when facing the enemy, Yin Jianxiu thought calmly.
This plot point is indeed done quite well and will have no problem impressing many people, but if you want to impress yourself who has seen a lot, you obviously need to work harder.
This level of words could not touch the burning and tearful points in his heart.
Yin Jianxiu continued to read.
After bringing the enemy to justice, All Might found Izuku Midoriya alone to express his gratitude.
When Izuku Midoriya said that all this was caused by him delaying the other party's work, and that he, as a Quirkless person, still said such arrogant words, All Might said: "Among all the people present, only you, who are timid and have no Quirk, have touched me deeply."
Izuku Midoriya looked up blankly.
"Top heroes have left behind some anecdotes since their school days, but most of them would sum it up like this, 'Before thinking, the body takes action first'..."
At the same time, the voice of the future version of Izuku Midoriya that touched Yin Jianxiu at the beginning of the first episode of the anime rang out again:
For some reason, I remembered what my mother said -
"I'm sorry, Izuku, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
The boy lowered his head, holding his chest tightly with both hands, letting the tears flow uncontrollably. Under the setting sun, All Might's profile was peaceful and gentle: "You are like this too, right?"
At this moment, my memory returned to that rainy night.
"Mom, no matter what kind of disaster the other person has suffered, he will save them with a smile... What a handsome hero." The computer chair turned gently, and the little finger pointed at the computer screen with trembling hands. The child's eyes were already filled with tears, but at this moment, he raised his head and looked at his mother stubbornly as if seeking confirmation: "Can I... be like him?"
No, mom.
I was hoping your answer would be...
I hope you're telling me...
In the afterglow of dusk, All Might told him word by word:
— "You can be a hero."
Yin Jianxiu was stunned.
A tear fell uncontrollably from the corner of his eye, blurring the screen of his phone. Only then did he realize that he, a grown man, was actually crying while watching an animation
Before he could accept the fact that he was moved to tears by a youth comic for the first time in a long time, Luo Gaofeng, who had also finished following the update, happened to turn his head. The two people, both with red eyes, looked at each other, and the scene was very awkward for a while.
Without any communication or gestures, the two of them relied on the tacit understanding between best friends to immediately reach a consensus on the situation in front of them - they spontaneously avoided the embarrassing topic of "Wow, you actually cried too", and instead started discussing "My Hero Academia" seriously.
"What do you think?" Yin Jianxiu asked.
"I can't really say what's good about it, I just feel it's awesome," Luo Gaofeng said. "I think the atmosphere created by this animation is really awesome. It's very appealing and easy to move people. The rhythm is also very brisk. It's very comfortable to watch it all the time!"
He kept praising it, and in the end, he probably felt awkward with his words and failed to master the basic technique of blowing, so he simply summarized it simply and crudely: "In short, it's amazingly beautiful. As expected, Huaying will never let me down!"
Seeing his friend also bragging like an illiterate, Yin Jianxiu was immediately relieved: "In fact, the routines in My Hero Academia are not particularly new, but the rhythm is really much faster than other boys' comics, and the atmosphere is also particularly easy to create for people to feel real emotions. It is much more interesting than the boys' comics I read before."
While the two were exchanging glances and words about their impressions, in the office on the sixth floor of Yueqi Video headquarters, Xiao Zhengwen, who was also waiting there, had already sat down at his desk on time, nervously awaiting the results of the premiere of "My Hero Academia".
It was less than half a day before the animation premiere at 10 o'clock, and Xiao Zhengwen looked at the clock on the wall, but felt that the days were passing by like years.
Unlike the last time "IS", "My Hero Academia" was introduced by him on his own initiative. It would be fine if this animation was successful, but if it failed, Xiao Zhengwen estimated that he would probably have to find another job.
While he was nervously daydreaming, the door of the office was pushed open with a bang. His teammates ran along, shouting excitedly at him: "It's a blast! It's a blast! Boss, My Hero Academia is a blast!"
Xiao Zhengwen didn't move.
He maintained his original listless posture without raising his head: "How long has the animation been aired? How come you know about it so soon?"
The team member did not answer this question. He did not hide his smile at all and said cheerfully: "Boss, if you don't believe me, you can go and see the comprehensive ranking of this week's new shows—"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Zhengwen opened the comprehensive ranking of new anime in June without thinking.
There are not many animations serialized this month, especially this week. It can be said that except for "My Hero Academia" which was broadcast on the first day, other animations have been serialized for at least one month. For this reason, Xiao Zhengwen does not have high requirements for the ranking of "My Hero Academia".
Considering that the animation just started airing today, Xiao Zhengwen felt that as long as it ranked within the top five, he would be able to accept it.
With such a self-consoling thought, Xiao Zhengwen took a deep breath and nervously clicked on the real-time comprehensive ranking of new episodes.
No.1 My Hero Academia
…
When his eyes fell on the name of the animation ranked first, Xiao Zhengwen subconsciously rubbed his eyes.
Is he seeing things
You know, it was only half a day before "My Hero Academia" was officially launched. However, in such a short period of time, "My Hero Academia" directly crushed several "old predecessors" and firmly occupied the first place in the overall list with unstoppable momentum.
Realizing this, Xiao Zhengwen felt his heart pounding, as if it would jump out at any time because of his own ecstasy.
Although the promotion of "My Hero Academia" by Yueqi Video itself is not comparable to other animations, it was able to achieve the legendary one-day top ranking with only the first two episodes when other new animations were serialized for several weeks.
Obviously, this time, he made the right bet again!!
The author has something to say: I strongly recommend this serialized BL quick-travel novel to my friends! You can find it by searching the author's name or the title =3=
