Chapter 424 Promotional Preheating
"New animation production decided!"

“Trigger Animation has once again teamed up with C-station and manga artist Aoyama to produce the third season of “Chainsaw Man”, the second season of “Madu Ghoul” and the new anime series “Fate Zero”!”

“In Fate Zero, the heroic spirits from historical legends respond to the call of the Holy Grail and the Master and appear in the same era to gather and fight!”

"The King of Ancient Great Britain, the courageous and victorious general, the rebellious Knight of the Round Table, the conquering king of the Macedonian Kingdom, the oldest heroic king, the wizard in the ancient nursery rhyme... will fight fiercely for their wishes!"

“‘Kill! Akame ga Mikoto’ may be about to reach its finale, with all members of the Night Raid Killer Group killed… The corrupt ancient empire finally collapsed.”

……

Fan Siwei looked at the recent hot searches pushed by Station C. The anime series "Kill! Akame ga Mitsukoshi" which he had been following was not so bad.

Since "Akame ga Kill" is a half-year series, it continues to be updated after the second seasons of "Mato Ghoul" and "Chainsaw Man" were updated.

The second half of the story mainly revolves around the confrontation between the "Night Raid Killer Group" and the "Hunters", a special operations force formed by the Empire specifically to target the "Night Raid Killer Group".

However, the subsequent plot still adheres to the same style of continuous sword-fighting as the first half and the later part of "Akame ga Kill", and continues to promote the plot through the struggles, deaths and ideals of each member.

After Hill and Brand were killed in battle, the Night Raid Killer Group recruited new members from the anti-empire army behind them.

Chelsea possesses the imperial weapon "Gaia Foundation", which allows the user to transform into anything according to their wishes.

There is also a special Teigu, the biological humanoid Teigu "Lightning and Flint War God Xingtian", which was allocated to Nadezhda by the headquarters.

At the same time, what is unexpected is that Tatsumi actually has feelings for the supporting actress Main, which is also unexpected.

After all, it’s obvious that the heroine of this drama is Akame.

And at the beginning, Akame and Tatsumi seemed to be in a good mood.

But in the subsequent plot, it was unexpected that Tatsumi and Mine were together, which was really surprising.

However, Tatsumi also provoked the leader of the "Hunters", the Imperial General Esdeath.

In this situation, some viewers who have watched "Protoss" couldn't help but inexplicably associate it with the plot of "Protoss".

However, in the subsequent battles between the two sides, it was launched continuously.

It's okay that Chelsea died, and so did Polus and Dr. Fashion.

But Maine and Seleu died together.

Mine, who successfully became the heroine, also died...but afterwards, Tatsumi still didn't seem to have fallen in love with someone else.

This is intriguing.

This even led some viewers who liked "The Gods" but didn't like the emotional line Yang Shuzhun arranged for the male protagonist Yang Mingfei to mock Yang Shuzhun.

"Who said that the hero must be with the heroine? Just look at 'Kill! Akame ga Mikoto', that old thief, Itchy Rat!"

"So, Qingshan the old thief is better than you, and his male protagonist is countless times better than yours."

"There is character creation in Yanyangshu Laozei, but my opinion is that Laozei's character creation has only one label, and the highlight of his character creation is only one or two famous scenes. As for other character creations... there is none. It seems that he created a character just for a famous scene, and then ignored the characterization of other aspects."

"The hero and the heroine must be tied together. They must be a pair, even if they have no interaction at all."

"Even though Qingshan Laozei created an animation casually and formulaically, his character creation is much more three-dimensional than that of Yanyangshu Laozei."

"Will the series "Divine Clan" be resumed? It won't be suspended indefinitely."

……

Faced with such direct questioning and ridicule, Yang Shuzhun did not respond.

As for "Kill! Akame ga Mikoto"... that's even less worth mentioning.

Lin Qingshan never thought that "Slash! Scarlet Eyes" could cause such a stir.

But this was just a minor disturbance.

The plot of "Kill! Akame ga Kill" continues to advance, and there are about five episodes left to reach the finale.

However, as the plot continues, and many viewers are familiar with Lin Qingshan's style, it looks like everyone will die in the finale...

Fan Siwei is also looking forward to "Kill! Red Eyes", but now he is more curious about one of the many hot searches on Station C...

The production of a new anime has been confirmed... "Fate Zero"?
Translated literally, it means "Fate Zero".

Of course, you can't tell anything from the name, but look at the slogan in the video.

Summon the heroic spirits from historical legends and have them fight for the Holy Grail in the same era?

There are also the aforementioned "King of Ancient Great Britain, the courageous and victorious general, the rebellious Knight of the Round Table, the conquering king of the Macedonian Kingdom, the oldest heroic king, the wizard in the ancient nursery rhyme..." and so on, as well as the character images that are still in the shadow state in the video and have not been revealed...

However, it is impossible to tell what the images of the Heroic Spirits are like.

However, those text prompts are basically equivalent to directly telling the audience who these heroes in historical legends are.

Even if the audience doesn't know much about history, with mobile phones and the Internet so convenient nowadays, they will basically search online.

but……

Among them, there is the hint of the "valiant and victorious general".

It is hard to say whether there are always victorious generals. After all, there were many victorious generals in the ancient times of the Republic, and some were even undefeated generals who never lost a battle in their entire military life.

But the prefix "full of courage"...

That would be too obvious.

"Zhao Yun?! This must be Zhao Yun."

As a sophomore, Fan Siwei had returned all the high school knowledge in his mind to the teachers, but he still remembered very clearly the subject matter of the Three Kingdoms, which could make boys excited.

He still remembered that this was Liu Bei's comment to Zhao Yun: "Zilong is a man of courage."

When he knew that this was Zhao Yun, he suddenly became excited.

After all, many fans of the Three Kingdoms, even if they support Cao Wei, Sun Wu, or even the Sima family, poor Han Dynasty headed by Liu Xie, will have more or less disgust towards several people of Shu Han because of the different objects they support.

But I really can't hate Zhao Yun. On the contrary, my liking for Zhao Yun is almost the same as that for Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Guan Yu.

Fan Siwei also felt a little excited about this. At the same time, he searched for keywords related to other heroes who were Zhao Yun's opponents.

"The King of Ancient Great Britain... is it this King Arthur? No, the Kingdom of Camelot in Ancient Britain had five kings, including this King Arthur."

Fan Siwei searched for the search terms on his phone and said to himself, "But the only people who have records are King Arthur and his father King Uther? Why? Oh, this is a legend, equivalent to our ancestors Yan and Huang..."

In this parallel world, the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table is only widely known in Europe, but it is definitely not very popular in East Asia, especially in the Republic.

Just like people in Europe and the United States are not very familiar with the two emperors Yan and Huang, the ancestors of the Republic.

He then searched for the identity information of several subsequent heroes with obvious keywords.

"The conquering king of the Macedonian Kingdom is obviously Alexander the Great."

"The rebellious Knight of the Round Table, is this referring to Mordred, or Lancelot who cheated on King Arthur?"

"The oldest hero king? King Elam of the Kish Dynasty, or this King Gilgamesh of Uruk?"

"The wizard in the nursery rhyme? That's too much... Never mind."

"The professional title of assassin... the English name is Assassin! Is he the leader of the Assassin sect who believes in terror... the old man in the mountain?"

Fan Siwei also used the omnipotent Internet to find historical figures with relevant keywords.

However, some keywords are really too vague, such as the keyword "oldest hero king", which means the oldest king in human history, and there are many different opinions about it.

There are various opinions on the Internet.

There are countless evil wizards in nursery rhymes in Europe.

Especially during the Middle Ages, when witch hunts were promoted by religion, nine out of ten villains in horror nursery rhymes that have been passed down are wizards.

The only heroes that can be confirmed at present are Zhao Yun and Alexander the Great Iskandar, the King of Macedonia.

For others, such as the king of ancient Great Britain, there are only two candidates, King Arthur and King Arthur's father, King Uther.

There are more than a dozen candidates for the wizard in the horror nursery rhyme, and with the limited information, there is no way to know which one it is.

This is also the promotional method that Station C chose after a meeting and consultation with Trigger Animation. First of all, Zhao Yun is very popular in the Republic, so it is better not to hide it and directly expose this character for promotion.

Then we can first expose another famous European general, Alexander the Great, who made great achievements in the military field.

This will allow the audience to look forward to the confrontation between Zhao Yun, a famous general of Shu Han during the Three Kingdoms period, and Alexander the Great, the most accomplished general in ancient Europe.

This is the charm and attraction of cyber cricket fighting.

There is still some suspense about the other heroes, which will be revealed one by one when the animation starts to achieve the subsequent publicity effect.

In fact, this is true. The comment section below the promotional video has already been quite excited.

"Zhao Yun? Then he's invincible. Zhao Yun's force should be maxed out."

"Zilong, Zilong is unrivaled in the world!"

"The battle between Alexander the Great and Zhao Yun is a bit exciting."

"But Alexander the Great's military record is better than Zhao Yun's. After all, he was the ultimate ruthless man who unified Greece, defeated the Persian Empire, swept across Asia Minor, the Middle East and the Iranian Plateau, and occupied Egypt."

"Little-known fact: the Macedonian army only used the Macedonian phalanx in battle. It was just a one-trick pony, and there was no tactical basis."

"The Macedonian phalanx is just an infantry phalanx. We started using cavalry tactics during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Europe is just a bunch of weaklings fighting each other."

"It's definitely Zhao Yun who can beat Alexander the Great. One is an old antique from the Warring States Period who can only bully weaklings, while the other is a victorious general who developed various tactics and strategies and was able to gain a reputation during the Three Kingdoms era when many heroes fought for power."

"I can only say that although he is Alexander the Great, he is invincible in Europe with only a phalanx. If he comes to our side, he will be taught a lesson by the powerful armies of the Warring States Period, such as the Wei Wuzu, the Qin Iron Cavalry, the Zhao Bianqi, and the Qi Jiji."

"Not to mention the Three Kingdoms period when tactics and strategies were more developed. Zhao Yun could lead his White Horse Volunteers to kill your Macedonian phalanx, which was composed entirely of infantry."

"You are too arrogant. After all, he is the legendary Alexander the Great of Europe. He was able to build a great empire spanning Asia, Africa and Europe. What is Zhao Yun?"

"I can only say that if it were Zhao Yun, he would be able to conquer not only Greece, Persia, and Egypt, but also Great Britain and South Asia like Attila did."

"It's so funny, this is a little-known fact. The Hun Empire led by Attila the Hun, who was called the Scourge of God by Europeans, was invaded by the Western Han Dynasty and then Europe was conquered by the Huns."

"Stop arguing. Europe was a weakling in ancient times. It was only because of the inconvenience of marching in ancient times, and because we have looked down on people from other places for five thousand years, that's why we didn't think of attacking other places. Otherwise... hehe."

"Don't be too arrogant. Alexander the Great is, after all, a figure like the Emperor Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han. Zhao Yun is just a military commander."

"But the official website says that the heroes are blessed based on their fame and legends, and this is not about marching and fighting. Zhao Yun...is indeed not as famous as Alexander the Great."

"But there is also the blessing of summoning the hero of the country in the local area, which has the blessing of fame, so it is really hard to say."

"Fighting on home turf! I have the advantage! We have to stabilize this wave."

……

As expected by the publicity department of Station C, the topic of the electronic cricket fighting between Zhao Yun and Alexander the Great, which was first exposed, initially brought a lot of popularity and topicality to "Fate Zero".

Some people think that the ancient heroes of the Republic can easily beat the ancient European heroes, while others think that in terms of actual fame and battle records, even with the blessing of local popularity, Zhao Yun cannot compare with European legends like Alexander the Great.

But no matter what, our own people will definitely support our own people.

The same was true for Fan Siwei. He also excitedly expressed his views online and discussed them with other netizens who held opposing views.

But after he surfed passionately for a while.

"Damn——"

The sound of mobile phone push notifications rang out, and Fan Siwei saw the updates of popular comics such as "Dao Guiyixian" and "Jujutsu Kaisen" that he had been waiting for for a long time.

The plot of "The Tao of Strange Things" begins after Li Huowang finishes his journey to the Nestorian Church and expels his "respectable and lovable" half-immortal master Dan Yangzi.

He didn't know what the six elders of the Nestorian Church said next. Although there were "illusions" of Danyangzi and Yingzi around him, he still said goodbye and prepared to return to Anci Temple to reunite with his companions.
