Moreover, given the scene and the image, it's hard to imagine how she managed to express her true feelings while doing the voiceover.

Although she felt extremely embarrassed and kept blaming herself in the anime, Goto Ichiri couldn't help but peek at the TV screen through her fingers.

Fortunately, the death only lasted a little over a minute, and Hongxia and the others didn't laugh at them.

I watched until the very end, and when the ending theme played, I felt a pang of reluctance to leave.

Just as the preview for the next episode ended and the commercials started, my phone suddenly rang.

Goto Ichiri hurriedly picked up the phone and found it was Kita Ikuyo calling. She quickly pressed the answer button.

"I want to perform with everyone again, Ichiri-chan."

"Ah."

"It's not just next week's show, but also next month, next year, and the year after. I'm very fortunate to be able to form a band with everyone."

Goto Ichiri hesitated for a moment, then whispered:

"Me...me too."

"My guitar skills are about the same as the one at the end of the anime; for now, I can only play accompaniment. However, I seem to be quite good at playing along with everyone, and I will work even harder in the future to help Ichiri-chan as soon as possible."

This sounds so familiar.

The next moment, Goto Ichiri suddenly realized, wasn't this the original line from the anime? Why was it being repeated?

"Ah."

"I really like Ichiri-chan, let's cheer each other on!"

"Why…?"

Before Goto Ichiri could react, he suddenly realized that the call had been disconnected.

"Did a girl confess her feelings to my sister?"

"No, she must be talking about animation."

"I like my older sister very much too."

"Thank you."

Goto Ichiri looked away shyly.

Even so, she didn't run back to her room, because she also really enjoyed the next three animated series and watched them every week.

Shortly after the commercials, "That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime" began airing.

……

"The plot of this anime, 'That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime,' isn't particularly original, so why is it so interesting and I can't stop watching?"

"The adorable king is so cute, good-looking, and has a gentle personality. It would be strange if he weren't popular, right?"

"This animation has a magical power that makes it endlessly watchable. It once reached the second position of this season, but unfortunately it was overtaken by the constantly quirky Lonely Rock and the later-stage powerhouse CL."

"That's true. Cuteness is justice. As expected of Musashino, he truly understands the way of justice."

"In other anime, female protagonist merchandise sells the best, so why is it that male protagonist merchandise sells better in this anime? Doesn't that say something?"

"Agreed! This is the only anime that made me drool over the male protagonist after watching it. Musashino Animation is becoming more and more worth looking forward to."

"Musashino's fan service is also top-notch. Legs, necks, and absolute territory are all drawn very well by Musashino. Almost every frame can be used as wallpaper."

It's Musashino again.

Adagaki Aki impatiently swiped her phone screen back and forth, but no matter which anime forum she entered, the discussion was all about the Musashino anime.

Even a light novel like "Slime and Me," which wasn't very good in its original form and which I didn't initially think much of, has been adapted into such a brilliant anime.

The plot, pacing, art style... they can't beat it at all. How can they possibly win just once?

Although they acquired the production rights to the second season of Eromanga from Musashino, it's clear they can't beat Musashino with that alone.

"Yoshino!"

"Miss Aiki."

"Forget it, asking you is a waste of time."

After a moment's hesitation, Adagaki Aiki slowly spoke:

"Even the most amazing animation studios can't produce masterpieces every time. No one can know in advance whether an animation will be a hit before it airs, unless the production is particularly bad."

"Otherwise, even if the production is excellent and the plot is superb, it cannot guarantee that the audience will like it."

"But Musashino is different. It seems like they knew how popular the anime would be before they even started production."

"Aside from that, many viewers don't really care about differences in art style and other aspects."

"So, Yoshino, I'm giving you a task now: find a way to uncover the secrets of Musashino."

? ?

Why the sudden urge to send in commercial spies?

What's the budget?

No, you'll have to figure it out yourself.

Yoshino Koiwai was speechless. If she didn't have the money, she would have to take matters into her own hands.

But Musashino was right across the street, and almost everyone in the company knew him, so it was impossible to sneak in disguise.

Bribery is also out of the question.

Since that's the case, let's just give a perfunctory answer and actually do nothing.

After a while, she'll probably forget about it.

If I suddenly remember one day and ask for the result, I'll just make one up.

"it is good."

Upon noticing that Adagaki Aki was not responding, Koiwai Yoshino instinctively looked up.

At this moment, Adagaki Aki is resting her chin on her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

Since the summer before last, she has completely lost her cruel and ruthless charm.

However, there's nothing that can be done about it. Some people and some things, once missed, will be a lifelong regret.

“Miss Aiki, I have a suggestion.”

"what?"

"Under the guise of exchange and learning, we organized a study group to go to Musashino to help. Firstly, to learn their painting and production techniques, and secondly, to take the opportunity to uncover their secrets."

Yoshino Koiwai paused for a moment, then added:

"Moreover, those who had previously worked with Musashino performed noticeably better upon their return."

It seems so.

Adagaki Aki snapped out of her reverie and nodded slightly.

"Okay, let's do it that way."

Chapter 325 Arrogant Prince Masamune

With many anime series coming to an end this season, Musashino Animation's four anime series currently in production are also nearing their conclusion.

Meanwhile, the scriptwriting department has completely shifted its focus to perfecting the scripts for the four anime series scheduled for the next quarter.

Compared to Re:Zero, which has a source material, the other three anime series were significantly more time-consuming and labor-intensive to produce.

Even though Masamune had made a good start, with the beginning and the end already set in advance, perfecting it was still not an easy task.

To this end, the scriptwriting department adopted a group model, with each group responsible for one script.

Although Masamune is not specifically in charge of any particular group, he is very concerned about the plot and comes to the scriptwriting department every day to discuss the plot development.

That morning, right after the meeting ended, Mai-chan pulled a document from the pile of files on her desk and proposed:

"President, Xiao Lü has compiled a list of the main scenes that appeared in these three anime."

"Since these are all real locations, I want to visit them in person; that should give me more inspiration."

Masamune seemed to be deep in thought. Painters need to refer to real places to make the background and story more relevant, and screenwriters are also a profession where references are helpful.

"In that case, how about we call them Haizaki and Hino? Consider it a return visit."

“Alright.” Mai nods slightly. “If we encounter anything we can’t figure out, we can ask the person involved to rehearse it.”

"President, in that case, how about we include the parties involved in the other two anime as well?"

"Mashiro is probably busy drawing manga, but Takagi should have time."

"As for pure white..."

Masamune instantly realized what was happening and laughed:

"Sure, both Mashiro and I are free. As for the site visit, how about we go to my house?"

"Let's visit the president's house one last time. First, let's go to Shueisha and get the collaboration with Bakuman sorted out, then we'll go to the school."

"Alright."

……

"Has Mashiro's art style improved a bit? Bakuman's art style is obviously much better than his previous manga."

"It's probably because all the characters in this manga actually exist in real life? And Mashiro knows them all."

"That's true. With real people as references, you don't need to draw them exactly the same, but the capture of their spirit and movements is unmatched by other comics."

Inside the editorial department of Shueisha's Shonen Jump, several editors are discussing Bakuman.

Compared to other comics, this comic, set in JUMP, is more likely to evoke empathy and create a strong sense of immersion.

Moreover, because many of the editors appear in the comics, everyone is very concerned about their image in their respective works.

In addition, having a JUMP background naturally gives it an advantage during the review process.

As long as the grades aren't at the bottom, it's impossible for them to be cut in half.
