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

Chapter 648 Support! From the enemy camp!
Judging from the market feedback, the release of "Sacred Legend" was lukewarm.

Spring Bookstore's new magazine "Yuri" started to be distributed very smoothly. There were no returns or withdrawals from the shelves, and it has secured a firm position on the new bookshelf.

Judging from the real-time data of same-day checkout at physical bookstores, the sales on the first day were only 180,000 copies, which seems to be only mediocre.

Although many new comic magazines online fail to sell even 100,000 copies, this one is after all a new work by Shingo Oda, so it still has considerable market appeal.

There are only 180,000 copies, barely enough to pass.

However, the big Vs with high traffic all had a collective climax.

Because as long as it involves Oda Shingo, there will be traffic, how can people miss such an opportunity. And if it is not a big hit, it is considered a failure. This is the high standard that should be set for the existence of the Great Demon King.

[Oda Shingo's new work is not well received! Comics for women are not popular! 】

[Miscalculation! The Great Devil's decision! The Great Devil produced a comic for women, perhaps it was a serious mistake caused by his overconfidence! ]

[The market response to Shingo Oda's new work is not good, as we can tell from the queues at the bookstore entrance.]

The big V confidently released a comparison of bookstores. One photo showed the rush to buy "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" on the release day of "RED", and the other photo showed the queues on the release day of "Yuri".

It was the same bookstore, but the size of the queues was so different. It was clear that the release of Yuri was not comparable to that of RED.

Reactions to this in the forums were mixed.

"Oda-sensei also has times of failure? I can't believe it."

"Is there no hope for comics targeting women? I haven't heard of any hits in the past few years."

"I don't think it's Mr. Oda's fault. It's a market problem."

"Even if it's a market issue, it can be considered a mistake in decision-making by Mr. Oda, right?"

"Brothers, shouldn't we celebrate? If the Legend fails, and the more thorough and quicker the failure, Mr. Oda will come back and draw comics for us as soon as possible!"

This sentence immediately awakened countless comic fans.

"Good idea! Let's not advertise it."

"Yeah! Everyone, please don't buy it just to support Oda-sensei."

"The closure of Yuri is actually a good thing for us."

All kinds of reverse movements are so stunning.

The editors of the old three major companies such as Qunyingsha were simply in tears and laughter. Was there anyone who took the initiative to help?

But is this considered a favor or something else? Oda Shingo serializing a female-oriented manga is a good opportunity for our standard manga publications to take a breather. What if he comes back...

This mentality is very contradictory. Oda Shingo's enemies hope that his new work "Saint Seiya" will fail, but they are also worried that he will return to male-oriented comics.

"Don't come back! Oda Shingo, please just throw yourself into the career of female-oriented comics!" A male cartoonist expressed his feelings directly in the editorial department.

This immediately triggered the "inspiration" of many cartoonists.

Yes, we can't let Oda Shingo's "Sacred Legend" end too early, otherwise he will come back too soon, what should we do? We only have a few days of good life.

Oda Shingo has been away recently, and it seems my popularity has gone up. I have the nerve to resist the editor's urging for submissions, at least there's no huge, dark shadow of the devil hanging over my head!

What should we do? How can we make Oda Shingo stay longer in "Yuri"?
Finally, these smart colleagues came to a conclusion: We have to help him!

The big devil is in danger, how can we not help him? Is it worthy of our conscience? Is it worthy of our professional ethics?

Thus, the grand operation to save the great devil began... [Oda Shingo's new work "Saint Legend" is really great! ]

The first person to express his feelings on his YouTube account was a young cartoonist. He was a habitual procrastinator, obsessed with being a commander every day, and was often whipped by the editor with the example of the big devil's terrifying updates.

It is very rare for Shingo Oda's works to be recommended by his peers.

At the beginning, because the Qunying Society made things difficult for him, many of his peers watched and dared not touch him, so few people would promote him as a friend. This time, he was particularly eye-catching.

But before everyone could react, several cartoonists came to help promote "Saints" on their personal accounts.

[I didn't expect that even men can read comics for women. Mr. Oda is indeed the great devil! ]

[The Legend is worth watching, very worth it, no matter what your gender is. ]

[The quality of the work is absolutely excellent. Even if you want to show your support for Mr. Oda, you should buy a copy of "Yuri". ]

A large number of spontaneous cartoonist promotional articles have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

Many people working in the comics industry were confused by this.

When did Oda Shingo become so popular? When he claimed to be able to take Springfield Books to the top, didn’t many of his peers in the industry sneer at him?
What are you doing? You are helping the enemy, but it seems to make sense... The editors of the enemy companies such as Qunyingsha felt like crying after reading it...

As a result, a large part of the promotion of "Saint Legend" was really helped by peers.

So many cartoonists recommend it? Is it suitable for men? More and more male readers are curious and read it.

The second issue of "Yuri" has just been released.

The appearance of the Dragon King is just a way to meet the diverse needs of female readers.

The energetic boy who is similar to the shota brother is a character that often appears in girls' comics, but it did not cause much waves. Only some female readers who love shota cheered.

However, in this series, King Garuda, who was born with birds, has more and more roles.

The image of King Garuda actually attracted a lot of attention as soon as she appeared in the first serialization. However, she didn't have many scenes at that time, and only showed her upright image.

But this time when he appeared, his fighting power was directly demonstrated.

"Garuda flies to the sky--!" With a domineering and handsome move, the big bird born with King Garuda turned into a fierce attack and smashed the monster directly.

This is so heroic! Absolutely beautiful and heroic!
The first issue of King Gandharva also has long straight black hair that is quite aesthetic. And those big eyes are just touching. With a nearly perfect face and figure, she is the standard type of dream lover for male comic fans!
But this is a comic for women, so it seems a bit embarrassing for us to buy it directly...

However, the female characters in it are really pretty. Therefore, many male comic fans quietly bought "Saint Legend" after seeing it.

Most of the people lining up to buy books in the bookstore are girls, and the online physical copy of "Yuri" is selling very well.

Springfield Books' market data statistics report came out three days later.

Gao Yelan, who was already a little angry and had a swollen head, looked at the report and couldn't believe it:
"What's going on? The subscription of the electronic version is not impressive, but the sales of the physical publications online have reached the same level as the shipments of bookstores?!"

Moreover, seeing the sales momentum growing, the limited-edition goods from the previous period have been consumed, and pre-orders have already been received for the new period!
The phones in the new magazine's editorial department kept ringing, with distributors from all over calling to request supplies.

After receiving the news, Oda Nobuo was stunned for a long time.

Inexplicably, the new magazine "Yuri", which had originally been relatively unknown, suddenly became a huge hit!

No, it's not weird, just weird.

Because this wave of support actually came from the enemy camp!

However, he was too busy to do more analysis. After he and his three female assistants compiled the manuscripts in the past two days, they were busy moving into their new home!
