Popularity is everything, and my art style is just too quirky!

Author: Just asking a question

Summary:

Summer nights are transported to a world where popularity reigns supreme, a world interwoven with different anime series and games.

Here, everyone who gets a role is trying their best to increase their popularity.

Because in this world, popularity represents everything.

"Got it, so as long as you're popular enough, that's all that matters, right?"

So it is said in the summer night.

……

"What do you mean I don't have psychic powers? My psychic powers are called 'powerful'!"

In the anime series "Mob City," a guy who only used simple line drawings for modeling said this.

"Haha! Instead of running away, it's walking towards me?"

In the game "Villains Index", a guy with a strange and demonic laugh stares at the protagonist group who come to challenge him!

"Do it! Pity!"

In "Reboot: The Road to Heroes," the guy who famously said, "Even a dead hero won't be out of character," said this.

Thus, Xia Ye, the queen of popularity with a unique art style, makes her dashing debut!

Name: Xia Ye

[Characters who have appeared so far: None.]

[Location: Main World!]

[##Small-amount popularity-based loan service is now available! No more asking others for popularity points!##]

……

Dimensional Federation, Star City.

In a very ordinary single apartment.

Xia Ye calmly stared at the virtual prompts that appeared before her eyes, muttering to herself.

"Finally, a role!"

I've been in this world for a while now.

After figuring out the true nature of this world.

He had been waiting for this day to come.

Without him.

Because this is a world where different anime series and games are intertwined, and popularity reigns supreme.

Everyone in the main world after reaching adulthood.

They will receive character invitations from anime or game worlds.

Step onto the stage and portray your character.

Gain popularity points!

Once the anime series ends, as long as the character portrayed has a high enough level of recognition among the audience.

You can even spend popularity points to materialize your character's abilities in the main world!

This is the most fundamental logic of this world!

Looking at his personal panel in front of him.

As a seasoned anime and manga enthusiast who immersed myself in various games, anime series, and comics in my previous life.

The summer night is very clear.

To make your character popular in an anime series.

The first step is to figure out the type of anime series.

"View the world of the 'Mob City' anime series, and the character profiles I've acquired."

The virtual light screen in front of you changes accordingly.

[Anime series: Mob City]

[Status: Season 1 has not yet started.]

[World Introduction: This is a city where monsters and psychic powers coexist. Shingo, a flame psychic burdened with secrets, embarks on a journey to this psychic city in search of the truth behind a certain event.]

[Character Introduction: Your name is Xia Ye. You are an ordinary psionic user who likes games and appears early in the story in the Fifth Division of the Psionic Management Bureau.]

[Special Note: Before the anime world opens, you can spend popularity points to adjust your character settings.]

[Shall we begin adjusting character settings?]

That's right.

Before the anime series started.

It is possible to make certain adjustments to the basic settings of the characters you have already acquired.

You can also spend extra popularity points to enhance the character's design!

Taking battle anime as an example, within the scope allowed by the anime's world view.

Modeling, abilities, special effects, background music, etc.

Any reasonable setting can be adjusted, changed, and reinforced.

In this world where popularity reigns supreme.

This is essentially equivalent to investing in advance.

It is a choice that involves both risks and rewards.

"Yes!"

Judging from the introduction.

Mob City should be a battle anime!

The role that Xia Ye was given was utterly insignificant.

Its only advantage is that it appeared relatively early in the game.

Therefore, changing the character settings is imperative.

It's best to make your appearance early to immediately capture the audience's attention.

If we were to talk about what kind of characters are popular in action anime...

Xia Ye's first thought was, of course, that of a character who is both handsome and sophisticated!

Later, Xia Ye discovered that this answer was wrong.

Because that's what everyone thinks.

These are the times we traveled through.

Summer nights have been watching a lot of anime and games from this world.

Basically, it's all about battle anime.

Then there must be similar high-class characters.

This includes, but is not limited to, characters with white hair, blindfolds, high-resolution models, and posing, etc., the list goes on and on.

Sometimes, four or five similar characters can even appear in a single anime series.

The boat is high and the water is high.

It's too difficult to get involved in the race for these high-profile characters again now!

I need to find a different path.

"Mob City is a battle anime."

"Then combat strength is definitely the best entry point."

Xia Ye's extensive experience watching anime in her previous life told her this.

In action anime, discussions about combat power are always an unavoidable topic.

"But combat power alone is not enough!"

"It also needs to have unique features."

"Points that will make the audience remember, approve of, or like!"

Xia Ye thought of this.

An interesting soul, coupled with a ceiling, or the ability to break through the ceiling!
