Tokyo, everyone is drawing comics, who still wants to fall in love?.

Chapter 2: Pull your teammates into the sea! (Fog)

The industry devil is a nickname for someone who is the king in a certain field.

Japanese people have a special feeling towards the title of "Great Devil".

Those who are unable to resist are called the Great Demon King.

Zhang Mouning, who was playing table tennis on Earth, had an ability interface that appeared on Japanese TV as a hexagonal warrior with full grids.

The current name of Oda Shingo is very similar to Oda Nobunaga in Japanese history.

That is the existence that the Japanese call the Sixth Heaven Demon King of the Warring States Period.

Moreover, this historical figure also exists in this world. It is only after the incident at Honnoji that the world has a parallel situation and has developed differently from Earth.

"Okay, Great Devil." Oda Shingo felt that the system's help was dispensable, but he was somewhat interested in the title.

Traveling to a parallel world already has a natural buff.

Whether there is a system or not, I will reach the top step by step!
The system only speeds up the process of ascending the throne, and is a small addition to increase the fun.

Oda Nobuo is confident: I will eventually be crowned king!

[Ding Dong—The Anime Devil System has been loaded!] The reminder sounded again in my mind.

Before my eyes, a light blue interface appeared in mid-air.

[Please choose one of the following three options as the host's initial occupation. 】

"You actually let me choose a career?" Oda Shingo was surprised.

[Note: The system will grant different professions assistance, and the effect is an increase based on the host's own ability. ]

[The increase can be increased through mission rewards. 】

The system is to add buffs to one's own abilities, Oda Shingo understood.

Your occupation determines the kind of help you can get from the system over a period of time, so you must choose carefully.

He looked at the system screen carefully.

[1. Illustrator Master (low difficulty): Drawing skills +50%, Talent: Sales of book creation +200%]

[2. Animation Expert (Medium Difficulty): Technology +50%, Talent: Rendering and other technical processing, technical error probability -90%]

[3. Cartoonist (High Difficulty): Efficiency +50%, Talent: Upgradable Team Effect Aura]

The system has question marks to explain the attributes: painting skills refer to the level of painting, technology refers to computer operation and other skills, and efficiency refers to the speed of completing the work.

Initially, Japanese comics were usually updated once a month or half a month, of course there were also experts who updated weekly. In recent years, with the process of comic studioization, the update speed has increased, but weekly updates are simply torture for most authors.

The first profession is a master illustrator.

The improvement in painting skills is the most obvious, and one can be handy during the creative process.

He also has a talent for book sales, which seems to be a very favorable condition. After all, he is very short of money now.

But, what kind of illustration master is this? No matter how you look at it, he is still a [book master], okay?! Oda Shingo really wanted to complain.

More heroic characters began to pop up in my mind.

A Tony who is not a barber, an Iida who was driven back into the sea after landing on the shore, and an amphibian Mizutatsu Kei...

Ahem, concentrate, concentrate.

Second career, animation expert.

Mediocre, but also very exciting. The problem with mediocrity is the professional status. Who would remember an animation technical processor?
Rendering errors are every technical person’s nightmare. Imagine a project that has been rendered for several days and suddenly an error pops up...

The third profession is a cartoonist. At first glance, his specialties are high productivity and teamwork.

Since it is called the initial profession, it means that you can change professions later.

But what you choose as the starting point will determine the difficulty of your own journey.

The profession of cartoonist is considered difficult because the main character's family conditions are poor. For the current comic creation market, which mostly requires assistants, the difficulty level is relatively high.

The animation industry is very competitive now, and only cartoonists who work in a team can optimize the quality of their works and production efficiency.

Oda Shingo stared at the profession of cartoonist for a long time.

The understanding of efficiency is that if you can only draw one page of comics every day, but with the efficiency bonus, you can draw 1 pages every day, and your output has increased.

Halo, this is very attractive...

[Tick, tick] The system actually started the countdown, [Please make a choice within thirty seconds. Otherwise...]

"Hmph, system, do you think I'm indecisive?" Oda Shingo sneered, "Choose a career..."

“A difficult cartoonist!”

I just like challenges! The higher the difficulty, the more excited I am!
Oda Shingo smiled confidently.

This is naturally not Oda Shingo's only consideration.

Even if we don't consider his original body's long-cherished wish to become a cartoonist, he was an animation director in his previous life and had hundreds of people under him. Of course, he understood the advantages of teamwork.

Among the three options, the cartoonist is the only one with the aura ability!

Who doesn't love aura monsters?!
The moment Oda Shingo made his decision, countless starlights surged out of the interface and swirled into his body.

【Cartoonist career injection! 】

[The host's current ability is rated on a 50-point scale: Painting 80, Technology 150, Efficiency (buff)]

Humph, this system is quite sensible.

Oda Shingo was barely satisfied with his ability rating. His efficiency rating was 100 points, and with the 50% system bonus, it was an off-the-charts rating.

[Warning! The simplest ingredients are often... but cartoonists need a team! ]

[The host's professional talent cannot be activated due to lack of a team. ]

Well, that's quite fair. Oda Shingo nodded in agreement.

Don’t worry, try to see how good your comic production skills are first.

But before that, you must have a good living and working environment.

"I can tolerate poverty, but I cannot tolerate starting a struggle in a place like a pigsty." Oda Shingo began to clean up the room.

The working environment has an impact on work efficiency.

After piling up several large garbage bags in the corner, Oda Shingo wiped the sweat off his forehead.

Almost the entire room was wiped clean, and various types of garbage were classified and put into different garbage bags. It was impossible to throw away all of them at once. This is the principle of garbage classification in Japan.

Unlike China, because different types of garbage have to be disposed of on different dates, they can only be placed in the corner.

Take a look at the room again and the living environment looks brand new.

It felt like the small space of this cheap apartment was glowing. Maybe it was a psychological effect, or maybe it was just too dirty before.

Spreading out a piece of white paper, starting the timer on his mobile phone, Oda Shingo raised his pen.

I was originally an art student. Although there were no complete comic tools in the apartment, there were still quite a few paintbrushes.

"What should I draw?" He thought for a moment.

Before I came here, the most popular novel was "The Burial of Frillian".

I don’t know if it’s the influence of time travel, but the impression of the cartoons in my mind is very clear.

"Then let's draw a big puffball." Soon, the image of the girl Philen outlined by black and white lines appeared on the paper.

Wearing a robe, holding a magic wand, with long flowing hair.

Oda Shingo checked the time on his watch.

It only took five minutes, amazing speed!

However, the picture is not stunning, and it can even be said that the painting skills are not even good enough.

Judging by strict standards, the face is a bit like Kurumi Masami's crooked, the eyes are a bit like Fujishima Kousuke's early figures, the distance between them is too large, the background is a bit like Togashi Yoshihiro was too lazy to draw, and even the body shape has big problems...

"No wonder the painting skills only got a score of 50, the system is quite objective..." Oda Shingo sighed.

My drawing skills are very likely to fail in today's comics market. Although there are many famous artists with similar drawing skills, their drawing skills are not worthy of the comics.

With your ability, you dare to make trouble in the comic studio where you work? You're lucky that they want you!
However, this is just painting, what about storyboarding?

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely think that his drawing skills were rubbish, but Oda Shingo was experienced in his previous life, so he changed a piece of paper and began to use a ruler to design the storyboard.

This is the storyboard I drew this time.

It took a long time, but the storyboard of the deceased Frielian was almost perfectly reproduced.

"One storyboard, less than fifteen minutes!" The original body and my abilities are in a superposition state, Oda Shingo confirmed the result with joy.

I took advantage of the time travel. I already had an impression of the animation and comics, and it was extremely clear. I almost copied it from my mind.

In addition, I am already very good at production speed, and with the added bonus of the system, my efficiency is also amazing.

My advantage is the efficiency of storyboarding, but my drawing skills are my biggest weakness. If I want to draw "One Punch Man" or "The Burial of Frielian", my drawing skills are really not up to par.

"We need to find a way to form a team, especially one who can serve as the main artist." Oda Shingo made up his mind.

It seems a bit difficult with only tens of thousands of yen as capital.

But I like a challenge!

Oda Shingo began to think about how to recruit people to join his gang.

[Newbie gift packs are distributed.] The system has prompt sounds in a timely manner.

[Newbie gift package opened: Congratulations on receiving the team member joining assistance prompt, 3 chances. ]

[When a suitable teammate appears and has the potential to become a teammate, the system will remind you and provide assistance in attracting teammates. ]

"Huh?" Oda Nobuo was delighted.

When you feel sleepy, I give you a pillow. It turns out that you are destined to be the protagonist.

A map unfolded in my mind, showing a store on it.

[Teammate joining opportunity, first recommendation! ]

【Location: Bookstore (Bookstore). 】

Eh? Oda Shingo was stunned.

[The function of attracting teammates to help is enabled. One location and one sentence, and the team members will be taken. ]

[Key words for a member joining the team: "Miss, you don't want others to know your secret, do you? Then just come over here obediently..."]

Oda Nobuo was stunned when he heard the system give such a prompt to drag people into the sea.

The profession I chose is a cartoonist, right? Hey, hey, hey! (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻

Isn't this still the master of the book? !
