Chapter 209: Thoughts of the Assistants
At that moment, in Ren's apartment.
Yuka, Hiroki, and the others were also very surprised.
"That The Gods... has surpassed the popularity of the sensei's Chainsaw Man for two consecutive weeks."
Yuka exclaimed, "But... the plot and setting of The Gods are really good, it's a bit like the British..."
"Harry Potter, right? It's a bit like it," said Hiroki. "But it's really excellent, though the plot feels a bit immature, and I still think it's not as good as the sensei's Chainsaw Man."
"I think it's okay..."
Akutami Yuta shook his head at that moment and said, "The plot is reasonable and shows the fearless courage of humans when facing gods. It's very moving, but many cuts are also expected."
Like the god-extermination team that was wiped out in the underground palace operation, whether it was Ye Sheng and Masaki who died in the underground palace.
Or the professor who planned to kill the second-generation god, Samson, in the end, those were expected sacrifices.
But to say that The Gods is not as good as Chainsaw Man, it's really Hiroki being embarrassing.
"Well, The Gods is a very good work, I think that's true," Ren said with a smile. "There's nothing to praise or criticize."
He was also a fan of the original work "Dragon Clan" in the parallel world in his previous life, so he knew that The Gods in this parallel world would definitely be a very good work.
It's just that he hopes this parallel world gives The Gods a good ending.
Instead of being a bit disappointing like the later one.
Well... to be precise, it's... Not just a little disappointing.
It's... very disappointing.
Hiroki felt embarrassed upon hearing what Ren said.
He intended to please him. But he also felt that Chainsaw Man was better than The Gods.
"Uh... the author of The Gods is still the same as the sensei, a newcomer who debuted last year."
At that moment, Yuka seemed to see something on the computer and turned to ask.
"Yes, he debuted with me last year," Ren nodded and said.
"That's amazing... He used to be a mangaka's assistant and worked with the famous mangaka Michael," Yuka continued.
"I also want to be like him and become a professional mangaka as soon as possible," said Akutami Yuta with some envy.
Hiroki was also very envious. He was a mangaka who went from being a professional mangaka to a mangaka's assistant.
This, in reality, seemed a bit downcast.
But he also wanted to continue being... a professional mangaka.
"Don't worry," Ren said with a smile. "You'll have a day like that too. If you want to draw someday, you can let me know in advance."
"When the time comes, I'll recruit new assistants, and you can draw whatever you want and submit it."
"Thank you, sensei!" asked Yuka and the other two in unison.
"By the way, do you have any ideas?" Ren asked with a smile, looking at the three and asking with curiosity.
Yuka thought about it and said with some embarrassment, "Actually, I've had some ideas lately...".
"What ideas? Tell me?" Ren asked with bright eyes.
"It's... a passionate manga about a young man fighting a man-eating demon," Yuka said somewhat embarrassed. "The routine seems a bit old... isn't it too good?"
"No, no, no, the passionate manga routine never goes out of style!" Ren gave a thumbs up and said. "Come on! Yuka, your idea is very good! Keep improving it. If you want to draw your own manga someday, just tell me whenever you want."
"No..." Yuka said humbly. "I still have a lot to learn from the sensei. I want to... continue learning from him for a while, and then think about my own creation."
"Well... okay."
Ren smacked his lips and said with some regret.
It would be great if Yuka could draw the famous "Demon Slayer" from his previous life.
But now that she had said it, Ren couldn't say anything.
And, in fact, he could teach Yuka and the others many things, like painting.
Ren, who possesses the [Kaleidoscope Painting (Master)] skill, often helps Yuka, Hiroki, and Akutami Yuta improve their artistic skills, which is also very effective.
This has allowed the three of them to improve their artistic skills recently.
Not to mention that, for Yuka, Hiroki, and Akutami Yuta, Ren's plot design is undoubtedly master-level.
The most important thing is to learn Ren's skill in organizing the plot!
"Actually... I also have some ideas."
At that moment, Akutami Yuta saw this and said, "I was referring to the setting of the sensei's Chainsaw Man. Negative human emotions can generate a creature called a curse spirit, which will cause great damage to human society."
"There are also sorcerers who can use the power of the curse to undo the curse spirit and protect humans."
"This setting has nothing to do with my Chainsaw Man...."
Ren scratched his head and said somewhat uncomfortably.
How could the Jujutsu Kaisen from his previous life borrow the setting of Chainsaw Man?
This made him feel a little strange.
However, Akutami Yuta still firmly asserted, "Actually, I came up with this idea based on the sensei's setting of Chainsaw Man, just as the demon setting in the sensei's Chainsaw Man is based on human fear."
"Ahem, that's not it," Ren hurried to say. "Demons are not based on human fear, but the greater the fear of humans, the stronger the corresponding demons...".
"That's right..."
Akutami Yuta suddenly realized, and felt a little embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, as the sensei's assistant, he got the setting of Chainsaw Man wrong...
He really seemed too amateurish.
"Great idea! Yuta, you should strive too!" Ren hurried to say. "You'll become a famous mangaka in the future!".
"Thank you, sensei...".
At that moment, it was finally Hiroki's turn.
Hiroki looked at Ren, took a deep breath, and then said, "Actually, sensei, I have an idea...".
"What if one day all the characters in the manga encountered reality... the reality where the corresponding author is?".
"Huh?" Ren blinked and said "ah" in surprise.
"Actually, I thought of the sensei's work...".
Hiroki looked at Ren attentively at that moment and then continued, "For example, David and Lucy from Edgerunners encountered reality and met the creator of their world like you...".
