Suddenly, a man like "HR" appeared.

Congratulations, you have received 70,000.
Oh, it's so miserable, what else do you care about, at least you can pay back the interest for a week.
The male protagonist smiled and took the money to go home.
The boy who loves to laugh is not too bad.
As soon as he walked into the street, the boy ran into the big boss and passed by in a luxury car.
Well, here comes the tip:
Hey! Stinky dog!

Watching at Sir, this totally fictional animation really hits on some of our hidden emotions.

A world where a person, a demon, and a half-human and half-demon coexist and depend on each other.
The plot is crazy.
There are more than 70 important characters with names and surnames in a comic, and only a few are left in the end. The style of
is crazy to a new height.
But that's just the surface.
Dare to stare at such "crazy" people, often, can keep the last "sober".

SM
The male protagonist is named Dianji.
A boy who was repeatedly abused by reality but could only smile bitterly.
He is not a complete loser either. He talks about two dreams every day:
1, to eat toast with jam;
2, to talk about a girlfriend.
Obviously, the latter is more important for juveniles.
If I die, I also hope to hug a woman before I die.
△ As expected of Fujimoto, you
are very fast, and the next day, the dream came true and got a hug from a woman.
But, there is a price to be paid.
He has gone from being a human to being a mix of ready-to-kill rampages. The new addition to

Everything has to start with the death of his father:

So they made a covenant - Dianji feeds it with blood, and it follows Dianz all his life, helping him become a demon hunter.
Who knows, they encountered a black-hearted boss.
The boss of the underworld wanted to become bigger and stronger, so he made a contract with the zombie demon, but he was attacked by the inflated desire and became the slave of the demon.

And the idea of the zombie demon is very simple, destroy the demon hunter, that is: electricity, go to death.
Next, the first knife in the play appeared: the male protagonist was stabbed before the villain could say anything, and he died if he said it.

After a warm current entered his body, Dianji finally removed his chainsaw weapon and returned to his human appearance.
At this time, there are only two options for Dianji: either choose to be killed or be raised to live.

- toast with butter and jam lettuce salad coffee plus dessert

OP, this deformed and unbearable tie was foreshadowed early:
In the play, the electricity is abused by the boss, and the reader is abused by the author outside the play.
Here, readers who are unfamiliar must also feel the strong personal characteristics of Fujimoto: cult films have vivid narratives, chaotic and disordered; scenes are bloody, and is respected for violent aesthetics ; the author's self-expression overrides the perception of the plot .
In fact, Fujimoto has expressed his love for Quentin more than once, and he is also deeply influenced by Quentin.
from the picture, composition to plot setting, to violent aesthetics.
Fujimoto has formed a strong and unique personal style on the basis of fully absorbing external influences. This made him famous and stood out, and also established a group of loyal fans and fans for him.

However, expand the sight to the entire Japanese manga.
There are many cartoonists with distinct personality like Fujimoto. The personality of
has made Japanese comics one of the most prominent features.

Jump!
The recent explosion of Japanese anime is more than "Chainsaw Man".

has the longer-lived "Ultraman", the new theatrical version makes the circle of friends shout Ye Qinghui;
also has 18 Year of the pigeon man.
finally officially announced to continue writing our youth.
The question was raised again:
Japanese comics, why is he still the overlord?
Sir would like to say a cold knowledge first.
Anime is an industry that rarely experienced explosive growth during the Japanese epidemic.
According to the latest data from the Japan Publishing Association, the total sales of the Japanese manga market in 2021 will be about 675.9 billion yen, which has been hitting a new high for two consecutive years.
Second cold knowledge. Fujimoto, the original author of
"Chainsaw Man", has also been "banned" by the industry.
Although Chainsaw Man is only updated for a few episodes now.
Ke Fujimoto's style has long been popular in the animation circle. How to abuse
. How come
is not mainstream.
's debut work, "Dead Frame", is completely crazy:
, a vampire who has lived for 3,500 years, decided to die because he couldn't find anything interesting. The method of death is also very unconventional, he hired a killer to kill himself. As a result, the killer fell in love with vampires again...
This is his first work in a magazine.
"Dead Frame" is a work that puts the incredible characters portrayed by Fujimoto into practice in a form of entertainment for the public. If you have been moved by enthusiasm and tenacity before, then after seeing "Dead Frame", you are convinced of Fujimoto's talent. People who become writers.
said Lin Shiping, the editor who discovered his talent at the time.
Not everyone accepted him at the time.
One of Fujimoto's representative works, " Flame Fist ", was initially rejected by "Junior JumpSQ" due to its depressing worldview and dark plot. The editor Lin Shiping really cherishes his talents, and with his works, he argues with the upper management of the company.
Finally, "Flame Boxing" came out, albeit on 's other online magazine " Junior Jump+" with an older audience and a more relaxed review environment. The two magazines,

This is the right soil for the "psychotic" vines to grow.
As a result, a large number of soul cartoonists with distinctive personal characteristics have emerged in Japan. The creator of
, constantly broadening the boundaries of creation. The
market, while expanding the scale, adjusts and refines it, and feeds back all kinds of new authors.
In Japan, most major publishing houses have their own complete and rich product line of comic publications, ranging from children's comics to juvenile comics, youth comics, and even teenage comics, 18 banned comics, covering all ages.
Manga giant Shueisha.
has set up children's comics magazine "The Strongest Jump"; " Weekly Junior Jump" ("Dragon Ball", " One Piece ", "Saint Seiya", " Naruto ") which focuses on "friendship and love" Serialized in this publication);
At the same time, there are also "Weekly Young Jump" suitable for young people, which are more realistic and social themesmagazines; and "Grand Jump", a general male manga; "Cocohana", a monthly magazine for girls' manga.
The boundaries between different ages are strict, and relevant conventions are strictly adhered to. Even if the same comic is released in different media, will have different requirements for the age of the audience.
Let's look back at Fujimoto's emergence.
We exclaimed at his "psychopathy".
But perhaps, the surprise wasn't "psychopathy" itself.
Participate in social creation to express oneself and form resonance among groups, which is the beauty of "psychopathy" that makes people climax.

Stop!
The story that Sir wants to tell next is not so optimistic.
Few people know that this "Chainsaw Man" comic was "reported" by Chinese parents.
because it involves dismemberment, bloody violence, and nudity.
The reason for the report is familiar to us: "The child may imitate involuntarily, or try it out of curiosity, whether it is violent or pornographic, the harm is terrible."
But there is always a more absurd side to the truth.
The audience of this "Chainsaw Man" comic is not the "children" in the whistleblower's mouth.
In Japan, "Chainsaw Man" is published in the most mainstream comic magazine "Weekly Shonen Jump", but at the same time, there are strict restrictions on the reading group: is over 16 years old.
of course.
This report is just a small episode, and there may be more serious questions behind it:
Is there really enough space for mutual understanding between our audience and our works?

Once upon a time, every post-80s and post-90s generation of us could proficiently say the "Three Migrant Workers".

The branches and vines born in their works have their own unique flavors.
Not to mention the ancient gods of Japanese animation movies that we are most familiar with.
Which work is not engraved with its own DNA.

Three Kamen Riders teamed up to fight monsters.
Kamen Rider conveys the meaning of the mask, and the person wearing the mask becomes the core of the film's expression.
Kamen Rider fights the monster, its name is "BUG".
Min Jin uses a child-like plot to reveal the film's adult-style introspection.
This is a movie against the illusory self of the Internet, and it is also a movie that begins to take off its "mask".
works have gradually completed the common progress with the audience through their respective exploration and mutual reflection.
Actually we have had a similar stage.
from 2015. Works such as
" Return of the Great Sage " and "Big Fish and Begonia" have proved the market potential of adult animation in China through grand production and strong oriental style. After

Up to now, domestic animators are still insisting.
And when the director of "The Return of the Great Sage" Tian Xiaopeng returned with his new work " Deep Sea ", which he had polished for six years.
The film was not released on time, the director lamented late at night. The creator of
is a stylized exploration of animation themes, which seems to sink into the deep sea again.
Why are our adult animations so hard?
largely, adult, means poked.
It's not just about showing sensory and physical scales that reality can't hold.
is to tell you that when you grow up, the world is full of contradictions and speculations, balance of interests, and hypocritical struggles. Your cognition will be constantly broken through, your thoughts will be reshaped, and your three views will be continuously shocked and subverted.
These are still not the most important.
In the end, after being baptized by many values, you have to choose what kind of person you will become and what kind of life path you will take.
How far are we from "growing up"?
Finally, Sir, let me tell you a little story.
In 1956, something big happened in the Japanese manga world.
"The Evil Book Campaign".
At the time, it seemed that it was also a "disease" of the times.
Parents and teachers' unions, Children's Guardian Associations and other civil organizations and cultural groups have jointly launched a campaign to boycott cartoons. The reason for
is also very simple. The content of the comics at that time was vulgar, and the Japanese media listed several major crimes of "lack of conscience, no humor, no dreams, and no love".
Parents believe that many childrenThe child's addiction to comics leads to a decline in academic performance.
They burned books, confiscated children's comics, and burned them all in an attempt to expel the comic medium from the public eye.
Master Osamu Tezuka 's "The Devil with Compound Eyes" and " Iron Arm Astro Boy " were also attacked for no reason.
The movement was voiced by the protests of cartoonists, and the two sides compromised.
and then later.
They took the picture scroll and crossed the ocean to come to us.
