Chapter 148 Is there really a bit of Showa style?
The serialized chapters of "Parasite Beast" basically follow the original works on Earth.
But in terms of detail processing, Oda Shingo has greatly enhanced it.
When the original work was serialized in "Monthly AFTERNOON", it was serialized in the form of two chapters per month.
The author, Mr. Iwaaki, inherited from his master, Kazuo Uemura, not only the concept of plot as the main focus and the painter as a supplement, but also the old traditional habit of not liking to set up a studio.
This makes Teacher Yanming very hard to update even if it is only half a month. Not to mention the update of another masterpiece "The Eye of History", which is like getting constipated every year.
Of course, a lot of time was spent on refining the plot.
But this has also led many comic critics to comment: "Parasite" is generally passable in terms of storyboards, and there are often bright spots, but there are also many shortcomings in the effects.
Oda Shingo actually doesn't have much time to paint "Parasite Beast" now, and it can even be said that he has quite a lot of time.
The main time he spent was on enhancing the storyboards and picture effects.
Therefore, Oda Shingo's version of "Parasite" takes a step further in terms of story expression and can bring higher visual enjoyment to comic fans and a more profound expression of meaning.
In front of the bookstore, four comic fans sat in a row and didn't move for a long time.
The shop owner thought something was wrong at first.
Looking carefully, he was stunned.
I couldn't wait to get the comic book. I squatted in front of the bookstore and looked like this scene hadn't happened in many years, right?
Why? It seems that there was a comic magazine recently, and a reviewer was talking about Showa style?
The shop owner glanced at the bookshelf and happened to see the review article.
"The Wind of Showa?" Popular tags of manga artist Shingo Oda! 》
Oda Shingo? Sounds so familiar, these comic fans seemed to have mentioned it just now.
The shop owner picked up the new issue of "Jump" and looked at it. The new serial was really Shingo Oda.
"No way? This author really brought the Showa style?"
After looking at the comic fans at the door, the shop owner scratched his head, wondering what kind of cartoonist could bring back time to that era.
"That Oda Shingo, is he so powerful?"
but……
The shop owner has also been running a bookstore for many years. Although he seems to be returning to the beauty of the Showa era, he still does not approve of it.
They were too noisy just now! Manga people in the Showa era didn’t chatter when they were reading.
I clearly remember that during the Showa era, manga fans squatted at the door of bookstores to read books. After reading, they would carefully put the books away, lower their heads and leave quietly.
They wouldn't chatter as much as those few comic fans just did.
"The connotation of comics is the reader's own gain, and it is also the wealth hidden in his heart!" The shop owner said to himself matter-of-factly.
With this self-consoling thought, he stopped classifying the performances of several comic fans as the reappearance of the Showa style.
However, when the four comic fans were optimistic about the fourth episode of "Parasite", they actually stayed in a daze for a while.
Then they stopped communicating with each other and left one by one.
"Huh? It really looks like the style of Showa..." The shop owner looked at the comic fan's back in surprise.
Could it be that this comic really has some skills?
The shopkeeper also picked up Jump and started watching "Parasite".
Then, Oda Shingo’s fans +1.
Just now, the four comic fans were sitting in front of the store, looking down at "Jump", which was like a set of living signs.
"What's wrong? There are people sitting in front of bookstores reading books these days?"
Some passers-by looked over curiously.
Some trendy girls even took this picture online.
As a result, another discussion started, and finally the focus of the topic fell on the new serialization of "Jump".
This can also be regarded as adding traffic to Oda Shingo's new comics. In fact, it's not just his store, there are similar situations in many places.
It’s just that you don’t necessarily sit in front of the store. Many comic fans read the book on the tram or subway.
Some netizens were reminded by Moments or forum posts that "Parasite" was actually published today.
"It's better to hold it in your hand and read it, it will feel more like reading comics..." A comic fan walked out of his house and went to a bookstore that he had not been to for many years.
But it is undeniable that many comic fans do stay in bookstores longer because of Parasite.
The key is that more comic fans asked the shopkeeper by name whether Parasite was serialized, which made Oda Shingo's name even more popular in the bookstore industry.
Bookstore people have many social groups with friends, such as the online life information circle, etc. Many people have mentioned that "One Punch Man" and "Parasite" are written by the same new author, Oda Shingo.
"Good guy, a newcomer is serializing two comics at the same time? I have been working in bookstores for so many years, and it seems that I have only seen such talented people in the Showa era."
"Don't be ridiculous, this must be fake."
"It's true, it's true! Oda Shingo, a new manga artist, is very good! I asked several readers who came to buy books!"
"Although the sales volume of this issue of "Jump" has not increased much, many readers bought it because of the parasitic beast. Almost all of them are new faces, rather than regular customers who often come to buy in previous years."
"The sales of "One Punch Man" in my store are indeed very good. They were sold out last month, and people almost kept coming to pre-order."
"It is said that this newcomer was suppressed by the top management of Qunying Society."
"It doesn't need to be heard, and it has been reported in the news. It is certain. This is why geniuses are easily jealous!"
"Wait a minute, let's not mention the books. Do you still have the one-punch scenery figurines in your store? Send me some. The delivery people above said they don't have them anymore."
"Huh? I'm sold short here too."
Starting from the new issue of "Jump", Oda Shingo's name is constantly mentioned.
"A sneeze——" Oda Shingo sneezed.
"Someone is talking about you." Todo Xiangcheng teased from the side.
Namikaze Yukaku glanced at Oda Shingo and handed over the paper box.
It feels weird, why was the girl handing me the artifact box? Oda Shingo said thank you.
According to Oda Shingo's request, Todo Orange collected various information from the Internet, and after summarizing it, he gave feedback: "Teacher Oda, those Internet celebrities are still complaining that your work has no connotation. Do you want me to mobilize fans to criticize you back?"
"No need. Being pregnant is like being pregnant. It will become apparent as time goes by, and the connotation of "Parasite" will become more and more apparent."
Toudo Xiangcheng smiled and said: "Teacher Oda, you can't talk like this outside. Be careful of being accused of sexual harassment."
After she said this, she even winked, which made people feel proud, implying that we discussed this matter privately.
"..." It seemed that this was really the case. Oda Shingo quickly reminded himself to be alert.
I eat and sleep with these two girls every day, ahem, sleep in separate rooms on the second floor. After getting too familiar with each other, I can't hold my tongue.
"Sneeze——" Thinking of this, Oda Shingo suddenly sneezed again for some reason.
"Huh? There's more than one person who misses you?" Todo Xiangcheng said in surprise.
"..." Namikaze Youhe glanced at her.
"Oh, everything seems to be normal." Todo Xiangcheng raised his brows and had a good attitude of self-correction.
Oda Shingo kept sneezing during the rest of his work.
"Teacher Oda, you want to be popular!" Todo Kouchi was surprised.
"Talk too much. A sneeze - a sneeze -"
However, these sneezes are really bad.
Oda Shingo has a cold.
And it's a bad cold.
