Pokémon, but cultural invasion

The comic's perspective was unique, reminding her of the books she had recently read, "Ratatouille" and "Crazy Elf City".

It has a cinematic feel.

A word popped into Ziyu's mind.

As she continued reading, she understood why the comic had this style.

It turns out that this was a video that the male protagonist, Jude, filmed for his deceased mother.

The story told in the comic doesn't start in a complicated way: Jewish people take photos of their own photographic works—about their deceased mother—at a school performance.

The movie doesn't end with the mother dying, but with an explosion at the hospital where she was bedridden due to illness.

Poor filming techniques and an inexplicable ending led to the students' reactions not being as wonderful as Jewish people had imagined.

They bluntly called it a bad movie and a weird thing. Even his teacher approached him, believing that the explosive ending was a desecration of his mother's death.

As a result, Jewish students discriminated against and ostracized him. He was devastated and hesitated about whether to jump off the hospital roof.

At that moment, a girl named "Eri" stopped him.

They took the Jewish man to an abandoned school building and invited him to watch a movie together.

Eri is a hardcore film buff. She appreciates Yuta's films and encourages him not to give up and to continue making his next movie.

With Eri's help, Yuta regains his confidence.

After watching a large number of movies to accumulate experience and repeatedly polishing the script, the second film, "Boy and Vampire," began filming.

However, Eri fell ill during filming.

She revealed the truth to the Jewish man: she had long been suffering from a terminal illness, and her condition was critical.

Eri chose to have a Jewish woman make the film because she wanted to record the most beautiful moments before her death, just like her Jewish mother.

Judah was devastated again, but he eventually rallied and decided to grant Eri's every request and photograph everything about her.

This time, he won everyone's tears and received thunderous applause.

As the movie ended, the comic book fast-forwarded through a few pages, showing the Jewish man graduating, starting work, getting married, and having children.

He lived the first half of his life according to societal expectations, and continued to edit and film Eri's scenes.

Eri's story seems to end here.

The comic book only came to an end when a sudden car accident took away the Jewish man's wife and daughter.

Jude returns to the small room where he and Eri used to watch movies together, intending to commit suicide in this place filled with memories.

Then, a miracle happened.

Judeo once again encountered Eri, who was supposed to be dead. She looked exactly the same as before, as if time had left no trace.

She is the same character she once portrayed in the movie—an immortal vampire.

Vampires have limited brain capacity and lose their memories after death, which is why the Jewish man filmed her life so she could remember him.

"I see you every time I watch, and no matter how many times I forget, I can always remember you. Isn't that wonderful?"

Eri's words made Judas understand why he insisted on editing.

"It's missing a touch of fantasy."

He picked up the suicide tools, walked out of the room, and out of the old school building.

Then, the school building exploded, just like the ending of the mother's movie.

The comic is finished.

"So, are the last few pages a Jewish-edited film, or actual events?"

Zi Yu was confused. She was drawn in and read it all, only to find that she didn't understand it at all.

Too much ambiguity and suspense are left in the comic, giving it a unique flavor.

She casually shared the comic and captioned it:

"Can anyone understand this? I've never seen a comic like this before."

Ziyu, a senior student, is very popular at Blueberry Academy, and her tweets immediately attracted attention.

This unique manga, along with "Foolish Metal," entered the public eye.

Chapter 154 Filming in Tingxiang

Unlike the two historically significant colleges in the Padia region, Blueberry College is relatively new, having been built around the same time as the resource development facility on the seabed of Unova.

It has implemented its own Pokémon strength ranking system – the Blueberry League.

This new generation's characteristics, coupled with its unique geographical location and innovative system, have made the school's atmosphere completely different from that of typical Pokémon research schools, making it more unconventional and distinctive.

Ziyu is one of the four kings of the Blueberry League and a popular idol in the college.

The first group to appear under her tweet were her loyal fans from the same academy, who were restless and anxious at night.

"I want to eat two blueberries from Senior Ziyu: I haven't read the comic yet, good evening, Senior."

"High Temperature and Heavy Pressure on Flower Leaves and Stems: Strange Storyboard, Are You Sure This Isn't a Movie Script?"

"The big root was stolen by the Purple Yu magic trick: After watching it, I was actually a little inexplicably moved at the end."

"The plastic film supported the thorny vine: Was the Jewish man forced to film by his mother? Both films beautified the protagonist. The Jewish man is so pitiful."

"The Thunder Fang has an outstanding effect on Senior Purple Yu's pearl shell: a manga with a strong aftereffect, to be honest, it's a bit crazy, not like a human product."

"Get out of Blueberry Academy if you have an invincible ID: The author's name is Yumu Metal, but I can't find any information about it."

Some students who hadn't fallen asleep yet went to Ziyu's tweet, and after reading the whole comic, they felt terrible.

They had never seen such a bizarre art style and unique narrative style. The movies and reality in the comics are intertwined and blurred, brewing a kind of "inhuman" richness.

It was automatically categorized as "History with Unique Tastes" and moved to the chat group.

After Ziyu forwarded the comic and went to sleep, "Goodbye Eri" began its viral spread.

From one chat group to another, through the combined efforts of these "masters of copying," an obscure comic was somehow precisely fed into the mouths of night owls.

Ziyu woke up the next day.

The hundreds of comments on her tweet, all from people who had come because of her reputation, left her completely bewildered.

"Senior Ziyu, Principal Xilan said he has something important to discuss with you."

The message from the navigator's junior left Ziyu no time to figure out the truth behind the tweet, so she rushed to the principal's office after washing up.

"The important matters that Principal Xi Lan mentioned are mostly just miscellaneous trivial matters."

Zi Yu made up her mind that she would still reject him cleanly and decisively later.

...

Principal room.

"Zi Yu, you've finally arrived."

The bronze-skinned man behind the desk, dressed in a stylish white tuxedo, adjusted his top hat with a melancholy gaze.

"The Unova Trainer School contacted me, and I can't handle it on my own."

"Principal Xi Lan, this is your job, please take it seriously."

Zi Yu's thick eyebrows furrowed, expressing his dissatisfaction without any politeness.

Xi Lan immediately slid to her knees and protested, "I'm innocent! It's wrong of me to push so many things onto you, but this school-level exchange really does require a student role."

Zi Yu's resentment subsided slightly, and she picked up a few faxed documents from the table.

Seeing her expression soften, Xi Lan quickly began to explain: "You know, Hollywood in the United States used to be glorious."

"During the golden age of film, people had high expectations for it, and the entire industry was indeed thriving."

"Back then, the Unova Trainer School had a community activity where students who volunteered could go to Hollywood to experience the movie filming process."

"This social activity is very popular among students, especially trainers, and many students have embarked on a career in the performing arts through it."

"But with the end of the golden age and the decline of the film industry, the event was abandoned."

Ziyu flipped through the proposal from the Hinoki City Trainer Academy and said, "So, with the resurgence of the film industry, the principal of Hinoki City has the idea of ​​restarting this social activity?"

Well, that's about it.

Xi Lan smiled and said, "If a student becomes a big star because of this, it will be an honor for the school, and accumulating some popularity will also help the Grand Contest."

"Their principal and I discussed sending a student representative each to conduct an on-site investigation to determine if the conditions for restarting social practice were met."

"That's why I thought of you, Ziyu. As the popular idol of Blueberry Academy, you're about to debut all over the world. Aren't you excited?"

"Dudu-"

Zi Yu crossed her arms in front of her, making an "X" shape, and said, "I don't think this is a good idea."

"There are clearly more suitable student candidates. Wouldn't it be more reasonable for the strong-willed senior, Danyu, to conduct on-site investigations?"

"But you're trying to push this job onto me..."

As Zi Yu spoke, she flipped through the documents, the words "Tingxiang" flashing by.

"That's truly ruthless!"

Xi Lan sighed. He was also responsible for pushing all the trivial matters onto Zi Yu, which led to the most efficient student going on strike.

"But then again, is the film production company actually Niigata from Kanto?"

Zi Yu could not hide her surprise; she still had a deep impression of the movie "Crazy Elf City" that she watched with her father.

If I can go to Tingxiang for social practice, does that mean I'll get to meet "Judy" and "Nick"?

Zi Yu swallowed hard. She really had no resistance to this adorable pair!

Xi Lan retorted, "Where else could it be? Don't let my frequent mistakes at work fool you; any Pokémon training school is very reputable."

"In the process of sifting through the waves, some students from each graduating class are tempered into great figures, and our school has influence in all walks of life."

"Besides, the film industry only recovered because of Tingxiang, so wouldn't it be meaningless if we didn't seek their experience?"

The film industry cannot ignore Tingxiang, which has completely replaced Hollywood and become the golden starting point of a new era in the film industry.

It's only natural that the Higishi City Trainers Academy was able to establish a partnership with Hollywood back then, and now the two schools are joining forces to form a mutually beneficial relationship with Niigata.

Xi Lan rubbed her head and said regretfully, "Since you really don't want to go to Guandu for your studies, I'll have to find someone else. Sigh, this is such a hassle."

"Wait, I haven't completely refused yet."

Zi Yu tapped her chin with her fingertip and said seriously, "After careful consideration, I am indeed the best candidate for this inspection activity, so I will be the student representative."

"This...could be perfect."

Xi Lan was puzzled by her change in attitude and said, "However, the specific details still need to be confirmed by our two schools and Tingxiang."

"If all goes well, the school will arrange for a teacher to lead you on a field trip. Just wait for good news."

"Then I'll wait for the principal's good news."

Zi Yu suppressed her anticipation; if she went to Tingxiang, she might even catch a glimpse of the new movie in preparation.

Chapter 155 God-Man Module, Love in Sinnoh

"No, where exactly is the problem?"

Izumi Tree, playing with Eevee in a two-person row, stares into deep thought as the compatibility score decreases.

His partnership with Ibrahimovic was flawless; Ibrahimovic always managed to pull through when he was eliminated.

The few times he died were all caused by him.

"My affection for you is skyrocketing, so why is our compatibility rating getting lower and lower?"

"Boy!"
