Chapter 72
Chapter 72
If it is doubtful whether the first chapter of “Lelouch” will unfold smoothly, then in the second, third and fourth chapters, the coolness is obvious.
First is the second story:
An enemy controls the mecha and finds Lelouch. Lelouch pretends to be the son of the duke, tricks that person down, and then uses the power of the king to take the mech away.
Then, he drove the mecha, hid somewhere, remotely commanded the so-called “terrorists”, and launched a fierce battle with the mecha on the side of the empire.
The whole battle seemed to be turned into a chess game. Under his command, the empire’s mechas were destroyed one after another. If the enemy hadn’t dispatched Lancelot, the stronger mecha, I’m afraid the hero would get one. Great victory.
After getting rid of Lancelot, the male protagonist used his abilities to mix into the enemy’s base camp.
Just when those “terrorists” were found and were about to be caught in a pot, the male protagonist hijacked the three princes of the empire and gave orders in the name of the three princes to rescue those “terrorists.”
At the end of the second chapter, the true identity of the male protagonist is revealed-the eldest son of the late Princess Mariana, heir to the 17th throne of the empire.
In the third chapter, first mention the situation of the male protagonist.
The empire thought that the male protagonist was dead when Neon was occupied. The third prince asked the male protagonist to go back with him, but the male protagonist said, “Do you want me to be a diplomatic prop?”
Then, the situation of the mother of the male protagonist is introduced: the status is expensive as a knight-in-law, but he is a commoner, which is quite an eye-catching existence for other princes and princes. Therefore, if he is assassinated, the male protagonist will become a diplomatic tool, and The mother’s death is related.
The male protagonist wanted to know who sent someone to assassinate his mother.
Later, the man took the initiative to use his abilities and asked for relevant information, saying that the second prince and the second prince knew about it.
After obtaining valuable information, the male protagonist shot and killed the three princes.
Afterwards, enter the plot of the school.
A female classmate who hadn’t seen much came to the school, and this female classmate named Karen was actually one of the “terrorists” at the time.
When the male protagonist studied the abilities he had acquired, because he was not familiar with it yet, he made operational mistakes, which led to Kalen’s suspicion.
But later, the male protagonist used his abilities to dispel Karen’s suspicion of him.
During the period, there was also a plot of Karen taking a bath. Although it was necessary for the plot, it was equivalent to sending a wave of benefits.
At the end of the third chapter, Suzaku, the boy’s playmate when he was a child, was arrested on the charge that Suzaku had killed the three princes.
This was framed because the three princes were clearly killed by the male protagonist.
The male protagonist will naturally not sit idly by, so in the fourth episode, he put on a black shirt, a black cloak, and a black helmet. Under the code name “zero”, he used his power to show off in public. He rescued Suzaku and gained the trust of Karen and others.
In short, the three consecutive words are very refreshing.
Those viewers who were worried about Takagi’s false propaganda were completely relieved.
It belongs to the subject of abilities and mechas, and the audience is very wide. Coupled with the excellent production of animation and the influence of Makoto Takagi, this animation has gradually aroused hot discussion on the Internet:
“Old Thief Takagi is finally willing to be a good individual.”
“It’s not a lie, it’s really cool.”
“Although it is not a pure mecha, it even focuses on the power of the king acquired by the male protagonist Lelouch and Lelouch, but this is more beautiful.”
“It feels a little second, but inexplicably handsome.”
“The only people who can shoot are those who are ready to be killed… They are really handsome.”
“I haven’t watched CL, but I like Lelouch very much.”
“This animation is indeed very good, I am a girl who watches it with gusto.”
…
DOS.
Seeing the good comments on the Internet, everyone seemed very happy.
“As long as this momentum can be maintained, maybe it will be another big-selling animation!” Someone said very excitedly after joining the company for a short time.
Esaka Noe couldn’t help but asked Uchida, “Uchida-san, do you think our Lelouch can sell more than CL?”
“it should be OK.”
Uchida said, “The audience of this animation is much larger than that of CL. In addition, it is well-made and has a wonderful story. The male protagonist is very attractive. It is not impossible to surpass CL. Moreover, the president said before. The goal of the animation is to sell more than 40,000 and hit the top ten of the total sales list. By the way, it won the Shiraishi Award and the Kyoto Animation Award…”
After a pause, he continued: “I don’t have a certain degree of certainty, the president probably won’t say that.”
“Forty thousand sales.”
Esaka Noe thought about it, and quickly said, “If it can break through 40,000, that would be really amazing.”
On the opposite side, Taro Komura, who had been in DOS for less than two years of production, suddenly interrupted and said: “The “Girl named God” in Kobe can break forty thousand in the first week. I don’t think our anime’s first week of ten thousand is nothing. Big problem.”
“It’s hard to say.”
Uchida Okichi has a different opinion on this, “It is one thing that the animation itself is excellent, but a large part of the credit is attributed to the group dance of the Gods and Demons Research Club. Unless our Lelouch can resemble that animation Tuan dances are widely imitated, otherwise it is unlikely that they would break 40,000 in the first week.”
“If it is widely imitated, our Lelouch did it.” Taro Komura replied without looking up.
“Um?”
Uchida Chong felt a little dazed for a while.
The others were also stunned, so that the small area where several production stations were located suddenly quieted down.
Realizing something was wrong, Taro Yukura looked up.
Seeing everyone staring at him, he quickly explained: “When I was out these days, I often saw some elementary and middle school students imitating Lelouch’s actions and lines. This is just what I saw, but I didn’t see it. There should be more people imitating.”
“what!”
Esaka Noe exclaimed, “Why didn’t I see it?”
“One by one, you basically only need to collect the original drawings within the company. Where do you need to run around like me?” Komura Taro exclaimed.
Esaka Noe blinked: “What you said, how do you feel worse than me?”
“It’s all miserable.” Taro Yukimura sighed. “The production process may be the worst in animation-related professions.”
“Hey! Isn’t the animator the worst? He is busy and tired, and I heard that the salary is much lower than the others.” Esaka Noe wondered.
“Hello~”
Uchida hurriedly reminded: “Esaka, next door is the painting team, what are you talking about? And our company’s treatment can now be said to be the best in the industry, even if it is miserable, it will not go anywhere.”
Only then did Esaka Noe realize that he had said something wrong, and quickly raised his hand to cover his mouth, and then looked at the area where the painting team was with a guilty conscience.
The so-called “animator” does not refer to people who are engaged in the animation industry, but an artist who is responsible for the work of cutting, that is, drawing lines and adding intermediate frames to the original painting.
The animator is different from the original artist, but they are all the person in charge of the painting process, so the work station is in the same area.
Seeing no one on the painting team paid attention, Esaka Noe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: “The animation is very miserable, not the worst, only worse.”
