Entertainment: You're asked to make a healing animation, but it will make the whole internet de

The day after the anime aired.

The internal atmosphere at Healing Animation Co., Ltd. reached an unprecedented high.

Every employee's face was beaming with joy and pride, and they walked with a confident stride.

Just two weeks after its premiere, the anime "Your Lie in April" has become more than just a dark horse of the season.

Instead, it firmly established its hegemonic position with an undisputed kingly demeanor.

Its influence has long since broken through the barriers of the animation industry.

Discussions about it can be seen on almost all mainstream social media platforms.

From analyzing the plot development to discussing the characters' personalities, and then to examining the details of every frame.

Even classical music pieces appearing in the animation have become popular search terms.

In the office, Shen Qingyue held a newly compiled weekly report and walked briskly towards the innermost office.

She knocked on the door, and after receiving permission, she pushed it open and entered.

"Su Bai, take a look."

Shen Qingyue handed over the tablet, her face beaming with excitement that hadn't faded in days.

"After the third episode aired, our overall rating across the internet stabilized at 9.9, and the number of viewers on Bilibili officially surpassed 80 million, which is another new record."

"More importantly, it's about reputation; look at the reviews from these mainstream media outlets."

She swiped the screen, which displayed the titles of articles published by several influential cultural media outlets.

Dragon Kingdom Youth Daily: Using animation to tell stories of youth, using color to heal hearts.

Global Entertainment Weekly: Su Bai, a young director who turns animation into works of art.

"Now everyone thinks you are the undisputed master of healing, the god of pure love."

When Shen Qingyue uttered the phrase "God of Pure Love," there was a hint of strangeness in her tone that she herself didn't realize.

Who would have thought that the melancholic old man who once made the entire internet cry with Anohana would now be given such a title?

Her gaze fell on Su Bai, trying to discern some different emotions on the man's face.

For example, being happy or pleased with oneself.

However, Su Bai simply accepted the tablet calmly.

His gaze swept over the exaggerated headlines and soaring statistics, his expression remaining unchanged.

It's as if it has nothing to do with me.

"Anything else?"

Su Bai's voice remained calm, revealing no emotion.

Seeing Su Bai's appearance, Shen Qingyue's excitement cooled down slightly.

She took a deep breath and continued her report.

"Our official account, private messages, and comment section have been completely flooded with thank-you letters from fans. Many people say that this animation has allowed them to rediscover the beauty of youth amidst their busy and stressful lives."

"They thank you for creating such wonderful characters as Arima Kousei and Miyazono Kaori, and thank you for creating such a tender work."

At this point, Shen Qingyue paused, looked into Su Bai's eyes, and spoke hesitantly.

"Su Bai, they all really love this story. We really need to..."

She didn't finish her sentence.

But that reluctance was written all over his face.

She knew the plot unfolding better than anyone else.

Now, all this overwhelming praise and this tidal wave of affection are like sharp swords hanging over the heads of all the viewers.

Su Bai, of course, understood what Shen Qingyue wanted to say.

He put the tablet aside and leaned back in his chair.

"Shen, the campus belle, what kind of tragedy do you think is the most unforgettable?"

He suddenly asked a completely unrelated question.

Shen Qingyue was a little confused, but she still followed his line of thought and thought about it.

"Is it the kind of process where you tear apart the most beautiful things, bit by bit, in front of everyone?"

"That's right."

Su Bai withdrew his gaze, turned to look at Shen Qingyue, and a smile curved his lips.

There was no joy in that smile, only a serene understanding of everything.

"The louder their praise is now, the more devastating their cries will be in the future."

He paused, his voice not loud, but it struck Shen Qingyue's heart like a heavy hammer.

"An animation that is merely enjoyable will soon be forgotten. But if it can cause pain, pain that is unforgettable, then it truly endures."

Shen Qingyue stared blankly at the man in front of her.

His words sent a chill down Shen Qingyue's spine.

She opened her mouth, but in the end, she didn't say anything. She just nodded silently and left the office.

The office door was closed gently.

Su Bai's smile gradually faded.

He picked up the tablet again and opened his personal social media account.

The latest comments in the comments section look like this.

"Teacher Su Bai! Thank you! You made me believe that there is still light in this world!"

"Please, please let Kousei and Kaoru be together! They are my reason for living!"

"Daddy Su! You're my god! I declare that from today onwards, you are the pinnacle of pure romance animation! Who agrees? Who disagrees?"

Su Bai's fingers lightly traced the words, his eyes remaining completely calm.

He was just waiting quietly.

Waiting for the moment when the lie is exposed.

Waiting for the moment when the beautiful dream woven with the most splendid spring will shatter.

......

at the same time.

Inside the company's recording studio.

Lin Xi sat somewhat uneasily in the corner.

She wasn't as excited as the other employees in the company.

In the past few weeks, she has experienced the highs and lows of life.

From a marginalized individual reprimanded by his mentor and ostracized by his classmates, he has become a mysterious violinist who is highly sought after online.

After the PV was released, her violin performance sparked huge controversy in the music industry.

Led by Yan Su, the academic faction launched a scathing attack on her, deeming her playing amateurish and rubbish.

But many ordinary listeners were moved by the rich emotion in her music.

With the anime's popularity, voices supporting her have completely overwhelmed those critics.

Her solo performance has been set as a mobile phone ringtone by countless people.

Some professional music content creators even analyzed her bowing and fingering frame by frame, calling it a masterpiece full of wildness and spirituality.

These sincere compliments gave Lin Xi an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and recognition.

This was a scene she never dared to dream of.

But after the joy came a huge sense of guilt.

Because she knew that all this beauty was built on a lie.

She knew Kaori Miyazono's fate.

She knew that her performance, praised by countless people as full of vitality, would ultimately become a lament for life.

Looking at the comments section, where people expressed hope for life because of the animation, she unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes.

Are we really doing the right thing?

She was somewhat confused.
