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

Chapter 210

It’s time for a new issue of “jump” to be released.

Now, people no longer think it’s strange to see queues outside comic shops, because this is the update day for Shingo Oda’s comics.

For example, many people are already waiting at the store door early - 11 o'clock in the morning, which is considered morning according to Japanese customs.

Traditional comic book stores adhere to the tradition of opening at 11 o'clock. This is a kind of stubborn dignity, and in fact, it is also to prevent people from breaking down the door.

In the last era of the last century, when the comics industry was at its peak, comics stores often had their doors smashed early in the morning.

The door-smashing phenomenon was alleviated only when all bookstores agreed not to open before 11 o'clock.

bang bang bang-

"It's 11 o'clock! Why don't you open the door?!" Some comic fans started banging on the door.

Now it is 2024. Seeing such readers, the boss feels like he has traveled back in time.

“Is this issue of Parasyte still 150 pages?”

"The news on the Internet says that it is still the case."

"Wow, Oda-sensei is a god!"

"It's really amazing. 150 pages a week, that's already the number of pages of most of a single volume."

"Some harem comics have more than a hundred pages!"

"That's a comic book..."

"Haha, you're exposed."

The comic fans chattered non-stop as the shop owner opened the door.

The new issue of "Jump" has been put on the shelves. The comic fans who rushed in saw it at first sight and exclaimed: "It's still 150 pages, awesome!"

On the cover, there is a close-up of Oda Shingo's parasyte, but it is a scene of Goto and Izumi Shinichi facing each other.

Goto's shoulders revealed the blade-like muscles unique to Parasyte, while Izumi Shinichi was assisted by Koyou.

But behind Goto, there are multiple tentacle-like parasitic blades.

Obviously, Izumi Shinichi was at a disadvantage.

Goto's body is made up of multiple parasitic beasts. Although Izumi Shinichi's body has been strengthened, it is not easy for him to fight with only Koyou's help.

Izumi Shinichi is in a panic because Goto says he's coming to kill him.

He had nightmares, was paranoid, and even when touched by a little girl from behind, he would jump far away as if by reflex.

Especially during the four hours that Xiaoyou was asleep, he was completely panicked.

Fortunately, Misato comforted him and helped him regain his courage.

Goto attacks.

Izumi Shinichi and Xiaoyou kept thinking, and the man and the beast tried various ways to fight Goto.

After failing to smash the car down, they entered the woods.

Xiaoyou temporarily leaves Shinichi's body and fights separately.

But it still failed, as Xiaoyou, who had left the body, was not strong enough to be fatal.

Goto, whose neck was broken, is recovering quickly.

"Run away! Shinichi! If we have to die, there's no need for two to die!"

Xiaoyou held Goto back, allowing Izumi Shinichi to escape alone.

It's getting weaker and weaker.

Goodbye, Shinichi. I'm really glad I didn't occupy your mind...

That's why I can be your friend and have many happy memories...

My consciousness started to blur...

Is this death...

With tears on his face, Izumi Shinichi escaped with one arm.

An old woman who lived alone took him in. Quan Xinyi began a very short rural life.

Some villagers were killed by monsters, and their body parts were horrific.

Izumi Shinichi knew that Goto had come.

"Isn't it good to be alive?"

"I wanted to live, but since my friend died for me, I had no reason to escape alone."

The conversation with the old woman is like Izumi Shinichi's own inner struggle, and also a debate between human rationality and sensibility.

Izumi Shinichi picked up a rusty hatchet with his only remaining left hand and set off alone.

The plot of this episode of "Parasyte" ends here. After reading it, the fans cried out in grief again.

"Not good enough, not good enough at all!"

"You old thief Oda! Please update me soon!"

Many comic fans are optimistic about the physical book and immediately take out their mobile phones to the forum to ask for updates.

On the web-based comics site, the number of tips and requests for updates for "Parasyte" has long been ranked first on the entire site, and this time, even "One Punch Man" has soared in popularity.

Because of their love for the comic, many comic fans also started following the web version of "One Punch Man".

Meanwhile, the 10th volume of One Punch Man has been published. The demand is outstripping supply! Not to mention the second reprint, even the third reprint has been sold out.

Hanbei, a loyal manga critic and fan of Oda Shingo, published an article directly in the column.

[The people who know cartoonists the least are the Cartoonists Association! ]

"Just as the Football Association knows the least about football, the Cartoonists Association knows the least about cartoonists!"

"Bookstores have long lines because of him, and the single volume has been reprinted three times. Cartoonists Association, are you blind?"

"He was nominated for Best New Artist of the Year, but the award was not presented. Are you crazy?!"

"Are you the Cartoonists Association or the Capital Implicit Rules Association?"

He started cursing directly in his column.

Many media outlets have raised similar questions, and as for the Cartoonists Association’s official message board…

It was washed away on the night of the awards ceremony.

After the new episode of "Parasyte" was released, the website of the Cartoonists Association was forced to close.

It just so happened that some fans who were tech-savvy started to attack the Cartoonists Association’s website.

Many subsequent live events of the Cartoonists Association were also disrupted by fans of Shingo Oda.

Do you invite the winning cartoonists to sign on the spot? We brought Oda Shingo's single volume and the original Jump magazine, and signed on Oda's works.

Your work? Sorry, I didn't see it!

Even Adachi Yutaka, who won the annual comic award, was rushed.

He is really depressed.

"First of all, I haven't offended anyone..." Fortunately, Andafong was old and calm, so he endured it.

Signing event suspended!

The Cartoonists Association’s recent activities have officially been postponed!
Oda Shingo, who was at the center of the vortex, was just busy drawing comics.

No one blamed him.

Because everyone, including his enemies, knew that his weekly drawing workload of 150 pages was too horrific.

Some ignorant big Vs even said: "Oda Shingo, take care of your fans!"

then……

"How dare you disturb Oda-sensei from drawing comics, Sina——!" The number one cosplayer fan leader [Yuzu is a Titan] and his fans blew up his YouTube channel.

In less than a day, this big V ranked first on the YouTube weekly follower loss list...

Oda Shingo has really been risking his life these past two weeks.

He has activated the acceleration potion given by the system.

This potion can increase the speed of painting, but the cost is that a certain part of the body will remain stiff.

But fortunately, there was a line of small notes in my mind saying that the system was safe and would not cause blood stasis.

After drinking the potion in his mind, a strong vitality ran through the eight extraordinary meridians from his forehead, passing through the upper dantian, passing by the lower dantian, and deposited in the lower dantian...

The effect is amazing! He was pleasantly surprised to confirm that the speed of drawing comics is like racing a car!

But the physical cost is also great!

Then, he tried not to get up or go to the toilet throughout the day…

Meals are eaten at the work table.

He couldn't hold it in any longer, so he bent his waist and jogged along the wall.

Because it's summer now, clothes can't cover it at all.

However, he underestimated the observation ability of the girl next to him.

Fujido Kaoki tilted her head and said worriedly, "Is Mr. Oda sick? He can't even straighten his waist. Ah, could it be that he is overworked and his kidneys are damaged? It is said that he will have blood in his urine!"

"I'll go ask Oda-kun." said Namikaze Yukaku.

But thinking that he would never admit it, Namikaze Youhe simply made a circle, jumped lightly, and went to the small window outside the bathroom...

Then she came back with a flushed face.

No matter how much Fujido Kaoru asked, she remained silent.

Now it was Fujido Kaoru's turn to be curious.

In the afternoon, Namikaze Youhe seemed a little absent-minded and blushed from time to time.

When it was time to rest in the middle of the night, Oda Nobuo was using a thick manuscript to cover his hunched body as he slowly walked up the stairs.

Don’t grow too fast, or it will grow too fast.

At some point, Namikaze Youhe had followed him and suddenly whispered, "That..."

"Oda-kun...if you..."

"If there's anything I can help you with, you can..."

Before she could finish her words, she turned and ran away, her face red.

Oda Shingo: “?”
