Higashino Hibiki saw Hana Chao with tears streaming down his face. He was really unwilling to do so. He thought that if he could work harder and harder during training, he might be able to win.
Unfortunately, there is no if in reality.
Akagi Kyouko went to comfort him, and Higashino Hibiki left Meiji University.
Hua Chao definitely didn’t want to see this fragile side of him.
…
Higashino Hibiki returned to Musashino and drew a sketch of Hana Chao with tears in his eyes. Such a wonderful game gave him a lot of inspiration.
On Monday, jump goes on sale.
“Slam Dunk” has another updated chapter, which is very interesting content.
Sakuragi Hanamichi shot and was blocked by Yuzhu.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and quickly grabbed the ball.
At this time, everyone present thought that he would pass the ball to Rukawa Kaede. After all, Rukawa Kaede was an absolute ace. But Sakuragi Hanamichi passed the ball to Mumu.
Mu Mu scored two points.
Tian Gang couldn’t help but feel nervous. He felt that Sakuragi Hanamichi was an outsider and could not possibly see through his plan to keep a close eye on Rukawa Kaede!
But I was also confused in my heart, why didn’t he pass the ball to Rukawa Kaede?
Once again, Sakuragi held the ball to Lingnan’s basket. Taoka still believed that Sakuragi would pass the ball to Rukawa Kaede.
But when Lingnan continued to guard Rukawa Kaede, Sakuragi passed the ball to Kumu again, and the score was shortened to three points.
Tian Gang gritted his teeth and had to admit that Sakuragi had his own way and he was very talented.
But what he doesn’t know is that Sakuragi Hanamichi’s ball will never be passed to Rukawa Kaede. This is his bottom line now.
I would rather lose than let Rukawa Kaede be proud.
Sendō once had a strong record of scoring 47 points by himself. In the game against Shohoku, the reason why he did not perform as well as before was because Rukawa Kaede was there.
In the fierce competition between the genius Rukawa Kaede and Sendō, he was exhausted and fell to the ground with leg cramps. Sendō made an easy layup.
Last time it was Rukawa Kaede who saved Sakuragi Hanamichi. This time Sakuragi followed suit and kicked Rukawa Kaede’s cramped calf. This actually made Rukawa Kaede recover and the game continued.
Shohoku’s player missed the shot, but Rukawa Kaede jumped high and made a tip-in.
Such a jump shocked Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Because the technique Rukawa Kaede used was the rebounding technique Akagi Takenori taught him last night.
“Whoever can control the rebound can decide the outcome of the game!”
Looking at this scene, Sakuragi Hanamichi was moved. I am more aware of the importance of rebounding.
…
“Damn it!”
In the pink room, Hidemi Kikuchi turned over.
She put the “Weekly Shonen Jump” aside and looked up at the ceiling with messy hair.
“It’s so short!”
She is very interested in reading comics.
It just took too long to wait.
I had this idea when I watched “Sailor Moon” in junior high school.
“It would be great if the author could be locked up and draw comics 24 hours a day.”
“However,” Kikuchi turned over and touched Jump, “male cartoonists draw really well…”
Every time she sees Tori Akino’s paintings, she feels a sense of shock.
It is different from the blank style of Naoko Takeuchi, the author of “Sailor Moon”.
Tori Akino’s paintings are very realistic. The muscle lines, characters’ facial features, and movements are all extremely realistic, tough and vivid.
This was a style she had never experienced before when reading girls’ comics.
Suddenly, I had the feeling that comics could be drawn in such detail.
“The amount of work must have been amazing.”
From the comics, she saw a cartoonist who was diligent and never lazy, and she immediately admired him.
“Perhaps he has been locked up in a small dark room by the editor to draw comics? How pitiful.” She thought.
Although Hidemi Kikuchi is a girl, she is extremely cheerful and lively. Her parents often say that she was born in the wrong child and should be a boy.
When she was little, she often caught toads to scare the boys in her class.
He is the tallest one in climbing trees, and he is also the liveliest and mischievous one.
Kikuchi has been interested in playing basketball since elementary school. Because her parents had to work in Tokyo, they could only go back to the countryside a few times a year. When they came back in the first year, they brought her a basketball.
“All the kids in Tokyo are playing with this.”
Later she discovered that her parents were lying.
Because there are very few children playing basketball in Tokyo.
But because of this sentence at that time, she became very interested in basketball. She took her younger brothers to play together and beat all the invincible opponents in the school.
But in junior high school, the physical disparity between boys and girls forced her to give up her basketball dream.
At that time, or even now, there was no women’s basketball team in the school. With nothing to do, Kikuchi began to watch basketball games.
From the countryside to Tokyo, she has watched no less than 100 games.
There are only three or five spectators, and there are thousands of spectators in major league games.
However, the match between Meiji and Tokai last weekend left a very deep impression on her.
It was just a friendly match at the school level, and she felt the atmosphere that can only be found in the league.
Not only that, there are also many strangers in the basketball circle.
Just like the uncle next to her who was suffering from kidney deficiency, he was definitely not a basketball fan.
All this is the credit of Tori Akino Mirai!
“I really want to see Tori Akino in the future.” She had this idea.
…
In the afternoon, Sasaki came to Higashino Hibiki’s studio with the photocopied storyboards.
These are all works that need to participate in the serialization meeting. The reviewers need to read them in advance and write their opinions and evaluations, so that they can quickly express their opinions at the serialization meeting.
Hibiki Higashino is very curious. This is his first time participating in Jump’s serialization meeting. I wonder what familiar works he will encounter?
With curiosity, Higashino Hibiki watched each book.
He kept nodding. As expected, the works that can participate in the serialization meeting have two brushes.
At this time, we are not looking for the advantages like in the Newcomer Award, but looking for the shortcomings of the work.
The works at the serialization conference are basically accumulated by the author over several years, so they are all very complete.
Higashino Hibiki was amazed when he saw it, lamenting the degree of involution in this industry.
But even for such a work, the hope of being able to be serialized in Jump is very slim.
There are a total of seventeen works participating this time, and only three can be serialized. The competition is really fierce.
After sighing, Hibiki Higashino came up with a new work, which made his eyes widen as he found the treasure.
The background of this work refers to Egyptian culture. The protagonist is a cowardly student who is often bullied.
His hairstyle is very distinctive, and he is one of the most high-profile in jump.
Compared with him, Sakuragi Hanamichi is simply a good boy.
The paintings in this work are very sophisticated, and it looks like they were painted by the author who has been immersed in painting for many years.
There are no problems with the painting, and the plot unfolds very interestingly. Among these serialized works, it is one of the best.
The point is, Hibiki Higashino loved this work and witnessed his success in the future.
So I picked up my pen and wrote my own evaluation.
Sasaki was surprised when he saw it, “Is it rated so high?”
“Well,” Hibiki Higashino nodded, “I feel that this will be a work that represents the future,”
Sasaki was shocked. He had read this manga and it was indeed interesting. However, in Jump, it was only at a mid-range level. He did not expect Hibiki Hibiki to have such a high evaluation.
He wanted to ask more questions, but after Hibiki Hibiki wrote the review on the leather bag, he took the time to read the next work.
He could only purse his lips and look forward to the serialization meeting.
…
A week later, on Sunday, Hibiki went to Shueisha.
Putting on his badge in the lobby, Hibiki Higashino came to the editorial office again. He remembered that the last time he came here was after he won the “Tezuka Award”.
Time flies so fast, almost three years have passed since he was a sophomore in high school and realized his dream to study at Musashino Art University.
The turning point of my destiny is to draw comics.
After exiting the elevator door, Higashino no longer had the shock of the last time, but his heart was even more agitated.
At the elevator door, in addition to the previous Goku and Jotaro, there are also Fujiwara Sawei and Sakuragi Hanamichi.
Full of emotion, he followed Sasaki into the editorial office.
“Toriakino is here!”
“The pillar of jump!”
The editors saluted him.
A college student actually drew Jump’s most popular work.
They can now work here leisurely, thanks to Teacher Tori Akino.
“The serial meeting is about to begin.”
There are also many editors who are pinching their fingers because they are the editors responsible for the work entering the serialization meeting.
Those authors handed over the comics to them with great expectations, and really didn’t want to see these authors feel disappointed.
“It must pass!”
…
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Hibiki Higashino entered the serialization conference room after exchanging pleasantries with Kazuhiko Toshima.
The people here are either the editor or team leader, and they are Jump’s management.
All of them are experienced people who have made outstanding contributions to Jump.
Editor Kazuhiko Toshima, deputy editor Kondo, deputy editor Nao Sasaki.
Team leader Azo Yoshihisa, team leader Asada, team leader Yahagi Kosuke…
Hibiki Higashi was sitting among these people. He always felt like a husky had gotten into the wolf pack. After he came in, the style of these elites became strange.
This serialization meeting, except for that one work, was actually not a big deal. At least Higashino Hibiki had no impression of those works.
Jump holds several serialization conferences every year, and only then can we find the real gold.
The countless efforts of these cartoonists were all in vain.
So some people say that drawing comics is like a gambler, and the chance of success is only one in ten thousand.
Those who can enter the serialization meeting are all capable, but most of them cannot even do the cornerstone of jump comics.
After skipping each work, Hibiki Higashino expressed his own opinion. He comes from the future and his vision is still good.
Torishima Kazuhiko was a little surprised. Hibiki Higashino’s idea was somewhat similar to his. In addition to the quality of the work, he valued works with peripheral development capabilities.
