Chapter 196: No Regrets
"Oh, this is what the plot requires," Ren blinked innocently. "This is the only way for everyone to remember Himeno, and this way of portraying her is very nice, isn't it? It makes everyone remember her, right?"
Not only did the fans remember Himeno, but she was also unforgettable. Anyone who has read the Chainsaw Man manga will not forget that in this story, there was a beautiful senior student named "Himeno."
Although she often seems irrelevant and arbitrary, she is a good woman who would risk her life for the person she likes. It's just that in Chainsaw Man, the good women are all dead women.
Sakura still seemed somewhat sad, and she didn't blame Ren.
After all, this is just a manga, but... Himeno's plot is truly too sad.
Yuka, Hiroki, and Akutami Yuta were also a little sad, but at that moment, upon hearing what Ren said, their understanding of character creation deepened.
"So... does Aki Hayakawa like... Himeno?" Sakura asked, biting her lip.
Although Himeno didn't care if Aki Hayakawa liked her or not, or didn't want her love for him to disturb him.
Even if Aki Hayakawa didn't like her as a lover, she would give everything she had without hesitation in exchange for his chance to survive.
But Sakura and the manga fans care a lot about this matter.
Because they still hope... that Himeno's love will be rewarded.
And what Aki Hayakawa said before killing the Ghost Devil sounded as if he were saying he also liked Himeno.
It's just that in the previous plot, his feelings for Makima were also of evident admiration.
This leaves everyone a little unsure.
"Yes," Ren nodded and said with a smile. "Aki likes Senior Himeno."
"And Makima?" Sakura asked with some doubt. "What's the story between her and Aki Hayakawa that makes Aki Hayakawa ignore Himeno?"
"Ah~~ Well, I'll keep it a secret for now," Ren blinked and said. "Anyway, Makima and Aki Hayakawa are not as... good as you think."
"Well... okay."
Sakura had to suppress her curiosity and said.
She also understood Ren. After all, it wasn't good to reveal the plot in advance.
"Alright," Ren said with a smile. "Now comes the end of this story. Yuka, Hiroki, and Yuta, we have to keep drawing this plot."
"And I... also have other work to do..." he said with a smile. "I want to give the character of Himeno... some tribute."
"Actually, I don't understand..." Yuka suddenly said at that moment. "In the end, why let Aki Hayakawa finish the cigarette Himeno gave him? Wouldn't it be better to keep it?"
"Yes, after all, it's a memento from an old friend."
Hiroki hesitated for a moment and also suggested, "Wouldn't it be better to keep it as a memory?"
"Or you can arrange for Aki Hayakawa to finish smoking this cigarette and die in peace when he retires in the future..." Akutami Yuta also nodded and said. "Isn't that better?"
"Aki Hayakawa... is he going to finish the cigarette Himeno left him?"
At that moment, Sakura also knew that the final plan would be like this.
"That's right," Ren nodded and then said. "Although it would be better to keep it, have you ever thought about it? Even if you keep it, how long can Aki Hayakawa keep this cigarette?"
Sakura, Yuka, and the others were also stunned when they heard this.
"Aki Hayakawa... He is a public safety devil hunter and will face countless dangers in the future," said Ren. "So he could die at any moment, just like in the previous attack."
"At that moment, even if he wanted to finish smoking this cigarette, he might not have the chance."
"Instead of keeping it and possibly regretting it, it's better to finish this cigarette here."
"Then... follow Himeno's words and have a happy revenge!"
Although... Aki Hayakawa won't be happy in the end... but let him not have regrets now.
This is also an adaptation of the plot that he considers better in the animation.
"Yes..."
Suddenly, when Ren said this, Sakura, Yuka, and the others also understood.
Yes... Instead of keeping it and waiting to finish this cigarette in the future, it's better to finish it now without regrets.
Especially for Aki Hayakawa himself, he is not a spectator and does not have a God's perspective.
He doesn't know when he will die, so he might as well finish smoking the cigarette.
"Alright, Sakura, are you having dinner here tonight?" Ren asked with a smile. "I plan to cook delicious dishes tonight."
"Okay... no problem."
Sakura nodded and said.
"Then play with Pochita first, we have to finish the draft," said Ren.
"Alright."
Soon, he, Yuka, and the other two were working.
It's just that Yuka and the other two were drawing, while he... was making sheet music and accompaniments.
After Aki Hayakawa finished smoking the cigarette, Himeno's story officially ended.
But he planned to use two songs he had really liked in his previous life to commemorate this unforgettable character.
Sakura was resting today, but she had nothing to do.
So she came to Ren's, and now she was joking with Pochita and watching the latest anime series.
After all, she is also an old hand.
And while Ren was working...
"I was so looking forward to you coming to clean the closets!".
Suddenly, Ren's cell phone rang.
Ren looked at the phone and was stunned for a moment.
But he still answered, "Hello, Mr. Yamamoto?"
Haruto Yamamoto, on the other end of the phone, heard Ren's voice, chuckled, and said, "Amamiya-sensei, you can call me Haruto."
"Alright, Haruto, what's up?".
Ren was very curious. After all, after the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 and its excellent reviews, his work at Hyperion Game Development had completely ended.
So he has had practically no contact with Hyperion Game Development lately.
Now, Haruto Yamamoto suddenly called...
"That's right, Cyberpunk 2077 is having very good sales and profits, so we plan to celebrate with a banquet."
"Amamiya-sensei, are you free this Friday night...?"
