My Cartoonist Girlfriend

Chapter 215 Library, Animation Episode 2 (2/)

After watching the video, I found that it was a recording of a live broadcast, and the content was still complaining about his own family.

The reason why Kei Shirogane appeared later was mainly because Shirogane's father went to the bathroom, so he asked his daughter to come out and broadcast for a while. Unexpectedly, as soon as Kei Shirogane came out, the live broadcast room exploded, and Asakura Kaede saw that the 10,000 yen rewards came one after another.

Never mind, I understand. After all, the little ghost is really cute.

After watching the recording, Asakura Kaede asked Eriri to look at the channel of this account and found that the number of fans was almost 50,000. Although the content of the videos was mostly complaints about family members, the popularity was unexpectedly high.

"Hmm~"

After thinking for a while, Asakura Feng smiled and said, "Although it is a little surprising, it is also a good thing. Nowadays, being a YouTube anchor can bring good income if the business is well managed. At least the family situation of the Baiyin family can be alleviated a lot."

Ying Lili also agreed and nodded, "That's right, but I really didn't expect that Uncle Shirogane would be so popular as a host at his age."

Kitamura Yusaku, who had been watching for a while, said, "I think it might be that the target group just happened to match. After all, there are many women who like men like Shirogane's father. Although he is middle-aged now, it can be seen that he must have been very handsome when he was young."

This is true. Middle-aged men, especially those like Baiyin's father who have maintained a good figure, are indeed quite popular in the market.

Asakura Feng nodded thoughtfully, thinking that she could ask Shirogane Miyuki later to find out how Uncle Shirogane came up with the idea of ​​becoming a YouTube host to satisfy her curiosity.

At this time, Kitamura Yusaku raised his hand: "Well, the emergency is over, can I continue my topic?"

"...Sorry, go ahead."

Afterwards, Kitamura Yusaku talked about some things about Kano Sumire.

After listening to this, Asakura Feng folded his arms, leaned back in his chair and said, "Well~~~ I understand almost everything. From the looks of it, I won't say whether the president has a good impression of you, but at least she trusts you and has entrusted some important matters to you. For a freshman who has just joined the student union, you have made a very good start. After that, you just need to work hard to improve her impression of you. What do you think, Eriri?"

"I think so." Eriri thought for a moment and said, "I don't know much about Kano-senpai, but since she is still single, it proves that she is still very cautious about love, especially in choosing a boyfriend. In terms of relationships, Kitamura, you are already close to her, so you just need to follow the steps. Yeah, I think."

Ying Lili didn't dare to say it too confidently, after all, she was just making a simple guess.

Kitamura Yusaku thought about it, and in the end, he didn't say out loud the actions he had thought of, so he directly rejected them. He decided to listen to the suggestions of the two people in front of him and proceed step by step.

After chatting, the lunch break was almost over, so the three of them left the restaurant and returned to the classroom.

...........

Asakura Kaede and Eriri did not participate in the club activity this afternoon. After showing up, they left school and came to the Fuzugawa Bunko.

After greeting Takasu Yasuko at the front desk, as they walked in, Eriri pulled Asakura Kaede's sleeve and whispered, "Kaede-kun, there's no beautiful painter coming today!"

"Hmm? No?" Asakura Feng asked back, then looked at Eriri who pouted and said, "Aren't you?"

Ying Lili's face immediately returned to a smile, and she tilted her head back happily: "Don't think you can fool me like this!"

No, you clearly look very pleased.

Asakura Kaede smiled, grabbed Eriri's little hand, and came to the editorial department.

I'm not here today to talk about Asakura Kaede's new volume. Soharu's new volume won't be released until October, so it's still a long way off. But it is still related to his novel, and there's also the matter of Eriri.

After coming in, Kasumigaoka Utaha had already arrived and was sitting with Machida Sonoko, drinking tea.

Walking over, Eriri looked at Kasumigaoka Utaha and said, "Why didn't you wait for us? I was thinking of coming together."

After taking a sip of tea, Kasumigaoka Utaha chuckled and said, "I don't want to be a light bulb, and it's mainly because you guys are too slow. I just finished class normally and came here, but I was still a little faster than you. But it doesn't matter. The sample is out, let's take a look."

Love Metronome is also being published at an extremely efficient pace, the sample of the third volume is already out and it will be on the market in a week.

After receiving the sample from Kasumigaoka Utaha, Eriri looked at the cover and nodded with satisfaction: "This cover is printed very well."

Eriri had already read the contents of the third volume, so when she opened it, she mainly looked at the illustrations she had drawn and how they performed on the actual samples.

Although there are not many illustrations, they still maintain the excellent painting skills of Eri Kashiwagi. Even after she started to switch careers and become a cartoonist, Eri's painting skills made a step-by-step leap.

While Eriri was flipping through the novel, Kasumigaoka Utaha said, "Your drawing skills have improved significantly. When you put the illustrations of the third volume next to the first volume, although both are excellent, you can see that the illustrations of the third volume are better. I kind of regret that I couldn't wait until you debuted as a cartoonist before publishing the novel."

"Hehe, there aren't so many good things in the world." Looking at Kasumigaoka Utaha, Eriri said proudly, "If that's the case, I may not necessarily cooperate with you. There is still a big difference between cooperating with a cartoonist and a doujin artist. You have to pay more, you know?"

"Tsk, when did you become so greedy for money?"

"This isn't called greed!" Eriri said, looking up, "I'm just maintaining my own status, you know? Not just any Tom, Dick or Harry can work with me! To be honest, I'm already a serialized cartoonist now, and I haven't charged you a premium for drawing illustrations for you, so just be happy!"

"..."

Kasumigaoka Utaha thought about it and it seemed to be true, but after Eriri said it, she still felt very unhappy, but she could do nothing about it.

"Okay, you're the boss and you have the final say."

"Humph!"

It was rare for Eriri to see Kasumigaoka Utaha surrender, so she straightened her body proudly with a look of satisfaction on her face.

Asakura Feng looked at Eriri helplessly, patted her head, took the third volume of Love Metronome, opened it and took a look.

"Well...it would be reasonable to raise the price, but we should stick to the contract."

Machida Sonoko, who had been silent the whole time, looked at the couple in front of her with regret, not knowing what to say.

After looking at the sample, it was Kaede Asakura's turn.

Editor Nakajima, who had been waiting, came over with a smile and patted Asakura on the shoulder: "Let's go to the meeting room together. Don't let too many people see it. After all, it's a first-hand image."

What we are going to watch today is naturally the first episode of the animated version of Sore No Haru. The finished product has come out.

Chapter 216 Too Stupid (1/2)

Because it has not been announced yet and is just a finished film for Asakura Kaede to watch first, it is not appropriate to play it directly in the editorial department and can only be played in the conference room.

In fact, Asakura Kaede wanted to go home and read it, but considering that editor Nakajima also wanted to read it, she just read it in the library.

When they arrived at the meeting room, in addition to the three of them, Machida Sonoko and Kasumigaoka Utaha also followed closely. These two were their own people, so it didn't matter if they added two more.

Kasumigaoka Utaha said with curiosity, "It's a light novel adaptation animation, and it's a work by someone I know. I can't miss such an event."

According to the two editors, as long as Her Love Metronome continues to be completed steadily based on its current popularity, the library will definitely arrange for it to be adapted into an animation. It can be said that it has already been decided.

This time, Asakura Kaede's work is being adapted into an animation, and Kasumigaoka Utaha also wants to see what the current level of studio DEEN is and whether it is suitable for cooperating in adapting her novel.

There is no way, these days, there are too many failures in the animation adaptation of novels, even popular novels sometimes can't escape collapse. If the cooperation with Asakura Kaede is good, then there will be a reliable choice for cooperation.

After sitting down, Editor Nakajima turned on his computer, connected to the projector in the conference room, and then clicked on the video file sent by the production company.

"Okay, let's take a look. Although I received it at noon, I haven't read it yet."

Obviously, although the author's works have been adapted into animations, editor Nakajima is more interested in the animation of Soharu.

The animation started and everyone finally sat down quietly and stopped talking.

Although Asakura Kaede had been to DEEN twice before, she had not seen the entire film. She mostly understood the plot arrangement and character settings. After watching some clips, she felt that there was no problem, so she felt relieved and did not go there often afterwards.

The first scene of the animation is naturally about the accident that happened to the male protagonist Kazuma after he came back from going out.

Everyone present had read the novel. After hearing Aqua tell the true circumstances of the hero's accident, that he was not hit to death but was frightened to death and even peed his pants, everyone laughed.

Eriri hugged Asakura Kaede's arm and laughed happily: "Hahaha, Kaede-kun, how on earth did you come up with such a plot? The male protagonist is too miserable, especially myself. Even the doctor couldn't help laughing after seeing me like that."

Asakura Feng also laughed, looking at the scene in the animation that completely met her psychological expectations, and said: "Originally, I didn't intend to make the male protagonist too miserable, but in order to immediately show Aqua's distinct personality that is contrary to her status as a goddess, I still did it this way."

Anyway, Kazuma is not a male protagonist with a serious personality, so it doesn't matter if he is a little miserable. Later on, he was given the stealing skill with outstanding effects. Asakura Kaede felt that as an author, he had treated him well enough.

Kasumigaoka Utaha also said at this moment: "Not only the male protagonist, I remember that the voice actor for Aqua was announced to be Amamiya Sora, right? Is she willing to voice such a mentally retarded goddess?"

Asakura Kaede smiled and said, "I just gave DEEN some suggestions, but who would have thought that he would actually invite me directly. But isn't this great? Whether it's the characters or the voice actors, there is a huge sense of contrast."

Whether it is the production of the animation or the selection of voice actors, Asakura Kaede feels that she is quite lucky and it is very much in line with her expectations.

Stroke his chin, Asakura Feng thought that this cooperation was very pleasant. He could cooperate with DEEN more often in the future, which would definitely be worthwhile.

The animation continues, and later on Aqua gets into trouble and is dragged by Kazuma to a different world. After joining the Adventurer's Guild, she gets her own career, but still has to live a poor life of working part-time.

The first episode had a very good pace, with some funny moments, some explanations of the world view, and it made direct transitions where necessary. I finished watching it in no time.

At the end, everyone's mind kept thinking of the rainbow that came out of Aqua's mouth when she was drunk, and the miserable image of them working hard.

After cutting the file from the computer directly into a USB drive and handing it over to Asakura Kaede, editor Nakajima said, "I talked to the producers at DEEN before, and they said that the quality of the entire animation can be guaranteed. As for the voice actors, a series of subsequent radio programs are also ready."

Taking the USB drive, Asakura Feng said with a smile: "That's good. I am still very confident about the production of DEEN."

After watching the anime, they left the library and said goodbye to Kasumigaoka Utaha. Asakura Kaede and Eriri took the bus home.

Sitting by the window and looking at the scenery outside, Eriri said to Asakura Kaede, "Kaede-kun, the animation will be broadcast next month, right?"

"Yes, but because of the nature of animation, it can't be broadcast during prime time, so it can only be scheduled in the early part of the late night time slot." Asakura Feng nodded, "But late night time slot is also fine. Although animation doesn't have anything too explicit, if it's a late night slot, the production can be a little more relaxed."

"Hey, you mean Darkness?"

Asakura Kaede glanced at Eriri, and they both laughed at the same time.

Although the masochistic knight will not appear in the first episode, Asakura Kaede believes that after the animation is broadcast, the audience who have read the novel will be curious about how it will unfold later.

But in this first episode alone, this mentally retarded Aqua is enough to make the audience laugh, not to mention the male protagonist Kazuma.

After returning home, Eriri went to change clothes, and Asakura Kaede turned on her computer and sent a tweet. The content was very simple, it was about animation.

[Today I watched the first episode of the anime Sore no Haru. Please look forward to the broadcast of the anime next month. I will definitely not let you down. ]

Below the text, there is a screenshot of Aqua looking like a goddess, which was taken after reopening the animation. It is obvious that it is an old photo.

After posting it, I refreshed the page twice. Sure enough, at this time, quite a few people were refreshing the page intensively and had already started leaving comments.

After taking a quick look, Asakura Kaede didn't bother to care about the readers and fans' chaos. He closed the webpage, walked out of the studio, and went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

As soon as I walked to the refrigerator, I saw two little guys crawling on the floor.

Wow, it’s only been a few days since I brought it home. After replenishing its nutrition, it has started to become lively. When I just got home, it was still in its nest, but now it ran out.

Just as he was about to catch the two running little guys, Camilla came over leisurely, picked up one of her cubs under the gaze of Asakura Kaede, went back and put it in the nest, then repeated the process and brought the other one back.

Although he couldn't understand Camilla's cries, Asakura Feng, who was following behind, seemed to be able to feel the helplessness of this guy when taking care of the naughty child.

He took out some nutritional paste and fed Camilla some, then smoothed her hair. Eriri also came out, and then Asakura Kaede got up and walked towards the kitchen.

Chapter 217 OHHHHHH! ! ! (2/2)

After changing into her regular clothes, Eriri heard Asakura Kaede talk about the kitten and immediately ran over excitedly. As expected, she saw that the little guy was much more noisy than before.

Seeing the kittens tugging at her fingers and even trying to open their mouths, Ying Lili smiled and broke free, scratching the kittens' bellies with her fingers and saying, "Hey, you're growing so fast, you need to grow up quickly. I haven't even used the cat climbing frame I prepared for you, and you're the only one playing with it."

Camilla, on the other hand, had already climbed onto the cat climbing frame and was looking down at the scene with a lazy expression.

After playing with the cat, Eriri came back to the kitchen, washed her hands, put on an apron, and helped Asakura Kaede cut vegetables.

"Feng Jun Feng Jun, after we wean the kitten, should we also take Camilla to get sterilized?"

Asakura Feng nodded and said, "Of course, if we only keep these three cats in the future and don't let Camilla continue to have babies, then sterilization is definitely better."

After thinking for a while, Ying Lili said, "Hmm~~~ Three cats are enough. I'm not the kind of person who thinks the more cats the better."

In this way, Camilla's future destiny was determined by Asakura Kaede and Eriri.

However, Camilla already has two offspring, so she doesn't have any regrets.

If there is anything regrettable, it is that Asakura Kaede and Eriri don’t know who the father of the two kittens is.

Anyway, his name will definitely not be Tiga.

After dinner, they made a cup of tea and took a rest. Eriri took the two kittens who had just eaten their fill and put them on her lap to play with them, while Asakura Kaede moved a laptop to the living room and logged on to YouTube.

At noon, because of Eriri's discovery, I learned that Shirogane's father was a YouTube host, so I followed him directly. It was just time for dinner to end, so I could see if he had started broadcasting. Asakura Kaede was still very interested in this.

After seeing Asakura Kaede's actions, Eriri asked with a smile, "Kaede-kun, should we tell Kaguya-senpai about this secretly?"

"Ok?"

Asakura Feng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Eriri and said with a smile: "Girl, how come you are getting better and better at making trouble?"

"Hey, I learned this from you!"

After pinching Eriri's cheek, Asakura praised her, "Not bad, not bad, but let's wait for now. Anyway, the matter between Senior Shirogane and Senior Shinomiya is basically settled. It depends on when Senior will take action again. As for Uncle Shirogane becoming a YouTube anchor, we can talk about it later."

Asakura Kaede decided to let them see such an interesting thing for themselves first. Anyway, for the current Kaguya Shinomiya, Shirogane Miyuki's father was not something she needed to consider. At most, she could first deal with her relationship with Shirogane Kei.

He clicked on the live broadcast room, but Asakura Kaede also followed the Twitter account and found a preview that the show would start in half an hour.

"Oh! There's actually a live broadcast today. The previous live broadcast was three days ago!"

Ying Lili came over to take a look, then said with a smile, "Feng Jun, do you want to take a look later?"

"Of course. I haven't watched a live broadcast for a long time. I think it should be very interesting." Asakura Feng nodded and said, "But before that, Eriri, don't forget that you still have homework to do."
