Chapter 451 How Invincible Is...

Oda Shingo's "Koga Ninja Scrolls" achieved unprecedented success.

Both his personal achievements and his ninja themes are unprecedented in the comics market.

The sales of "RED" were instantly boosted, the number of advertisements increased several times, and the two condom companies, Okamoto and Sagami, competed to print color pages.

Especially after hearing that there will be bonus scenes released in the second serialization, the Condom Company became even more excited.

"I'll donate to the comics! The license is a matter of page count, there's no limit on black and white or color, right?"

"We at Sagami have bought all the color pages for Koga Ninja Scrolls! What? You said this comic is in black and white? We'll pay, and we can print it in black and white with color pages anyway, right?"

Okay, that seems to make sense.

At least it proves that "Koga Ninja Scrolls" is a big hit.

Online subscriptions also quickly exceeded 10,000, which is very impressive considering the comic subscription figures in Japan, and can even be said to have exceeded that of "One Punch Man".

Although One Punch Man has accumulated tens of thousands of average subscriptions after the reopening of Qun Ying Sha, it inherited the previous figures, but the speed of reaching ten thousand subscriptions is definitely faster than that of Koga Ninja Scrolls.

"Please! The advertisement of the Ninjutsu Academy is only to further promote the Ninja Way!" The contact person of the Ninjutsu Academy has been waiting at the door of the editorial department of "RED" for a long time.

"Oda-sensei must also enjoy visiting the Ninjutsu Academy!"

"He will be very happy if we are lucky enough to be featured in your magazine!"

The liaison of the Ninjutsu Academy kept bowing.

Even though the editors of the "RED" department explained it earnestly, he still refused to accept it.

Japanese magazines and weekly publications are not allowed to easily advertise for recruitment, especially comic magazines. If they publish school advertisements without approval, they will be severely punished by the government. Not to mention Ninjutsu Academy, a non-first-tier educational institution that is run by amateurs and private individuals.

However, this at least shows the popularity of Shingo Oda's new manga.

Everyone noticed that ink painting and ninjutsu were made popular by teacher Oda Shingo.

There are even people from the Tokyo Broadcasting System's project production team who have come to inquire about the intention of live-action adaptation, and expressed their hope to help contact and introduce Mr. Shingo Oda if possible.

Everyone wants to connect with Oda Shingo.

Everyone discovered that this great cartoonist was not a big devil at all, but a treasure trove!
Those who can influence the prosperity of an industry with just a gesture are definitely the national teacher reserve.

"I was just about to invite Mr. Oda to consider a third educational manga, but it looks like it won't be necessary for the time being." Director Shunji Yonekura of the Agency for Cultural Affairs looked at the public opinion summary report and smiled proudly.

The assistant understood what he meant and stood at attention: "I understand. I will arrange for the dissemination of traditional ninjutsu culture right away!"

"Very good! I am confident in your work!" The director was very satisfied with the assistant's ability to understand.

The staff of the Agency for Cultural Affairs also had great trust in Oda Shingo.

The two consecutive comics have given the Ministry of Culture a very large advantage in the public satisfaction vote. It is foreseeable that the performance evaluation at the end of the year will receive a first-class evaluation.

Japanese government agencies have performance rating standards, one of which is public satisfaction. Without high public satisfaction, it is impossible to get a first-class rating.

This is directly related to the year-end bonuses of government employees, so to some extent, Oda Shingo is like a god of wealth to them.

In previous years, it was very hard to improve the public's evaluation, such as frantically handing out flyers on the streets, communicating with folk performance groups, and arranging activities to promote the cultural atmosphere. Especially for the front-line cultural workers, it was very tiring and hard.

However, the two comics written by Shingo Oda in the second half of this year directly raised the public satisfaction score by two levels, from around 60 to around 80.

"Teacher Oda is the savior of us cultural workers!"

"Thanks to Mr. Oda, I don't have to worry about my performance evaluation for this year's public office!"

"Teacher Oda is the Ebisu God of Wealth who blesses me with my year-end bonus!" Ebisu is the Japanese God of Wealth, the one with the golden axe and the silver axe.

Of course, what everyone is used to now is the dishevelled female river god...

So when Takano Ran went to the local cultural bureau to apply, the clerk saw that the reason was the serialization of Oda Shingo and immediately asked his superiors to give the green light.

This is the celebrity effect in Japan. Japanese society generally worships the strong, and most people even think it is natural for ordinary people to give in to the strong. It is generally accepted that celebrities enjoy privileges, and it is very easy to get things done in many aspects.

For example, if some Japanese celebrities, especially men, flirt with many girls before marriage, it will only be considered a manifestation of romanticism, and rarely considered a bad record that violates public order and morality.

Therefore, the Japanese public is very tolerant of unmarried men having mistresses.

As long as you are not married, it doesn't matter how many girls you live with and have sex with. Even if the police come to arrest you, there will be newspapers criticizing you for interfering with other people's freedom. As long as you don't cause a death or two, it is hardly considered morally corrupt.

But what is distorted in Japanese society is that many love action movies feature a lot of young women plots, but this is not allowed in reality.

If the male celebrities who flirt with girls mentioned above were to cheat on their spouses or flirt with married women, it would be an absolute scandal and they would be severely criticized and banned.

Oda Shingo, who started the trend of ink painting and ninja, is currently painting ink painting with a female ninja...

There are already quite a few tools for ink painting in the studio.

"The brush is the foundation of ink. When the brush is in place, the ink is formed..." Oda Shingo, wearing a white robe, waved the brush to show off like a god praying for rain. "The brush holding method of ink painting includes dragging the brush, dry rubbing, flat brushing, and reverse brushing..."

He demonstrated it himself, looking like a master of ink painting.

Namikaze Yuzuru looked at Oda Shingo, his eyes sparkling with stars.

She only had eyes for him and didn't really pay attention to what was being painted.

It's just that the ink painting on rice paper, in the eyes of others...

"Is it pork? Or Houqiu?" Fujido Xiangcheng who was watching from the side suddenly pointed and asked.

Oda Shingo's forehead was bulging with veins: "It's a rock!"

"So this is the soap you used when you were a child?"

“This is the Rock!”

"Is this hair?"

"It's water! A flowing stream!"

“…Hahaha! So ink painting is abstract painting?”

“…No.” Oda Shingo could no longer bear it: “So this time, I’ll let Youhe draw the comic with me, it’s none of your business.”

He pushed away the dissatisfied Fujido Kaoru, waved his hand, and asked Namikaze Yukaku to pick up the brush himself to experience the ink painting method.

The huge success of the comics prompted Oda Shingo to pursue higher artistic attainments.

Then he found that the artistic appeal of his works was too high and people like Fujido Kajuu could not understand it at all.

"Invincible, how lonely. Invincible, how empty..." Oda Shingo groaned, "Actually, what I want to say is that the key to ink painting lies in the artistic conception, not in the resemblance of form..."

"Nobuo, I understand you." Namikaze Youzuru took the paintbrush and carefully imitated Oda Nobuo's previous brushstrokes to paint on the rice paper.

Then Oda Shingo discovered to his embarrassment that she drew better than he did...
