I'm drawing an action-packed anime within a depressing one!

First, he drew the classic image of the Monkey King from the animated version of Journey to the West.

Although He Zhou wanted to carve it properly, he was going to go inside the hospital this weekend and wanted to hold onto more cards, so he just sketched it out roughly with crayons.

When He Zhou was drawing the cover of Journey to the West, everyone else immediately gathered around, and Xiao Wen was so excited he almost jumped up.

"Monkey King!"

"That's Monkey King!"

"Old He! You've finally started drawing Journey to the West!"

Just thinking about it makes him excited.

This is Journey to the West!

Although Jujutsu Kaisen is also very good, he still looks forward to watching Goku more than Goku.

"Although I like Gojo Satoru very much, I still prefer Son Goku."

"But Old He, your Jujutsu Kaisen isn't over yet, Gojo Satoru hasn't been unsealed."

...

He Zhou nodded.

"Okay, I'll draw Journey to the West first, and I'll draw an ending for Jujutsu Kaisen later when I have time."

"There isn't much more to the story."

"It was the unsealing of Wutiao Wu and the defeat of Taoyue Aoqiang's father, the magnetic umbrella!"

The early part, up to the Shibuya Incident, has been fully presented.

The sealing of Gojo Satoru and the highlight battles of the other main characters were all drawn during this period.

It's a version with absolutely no dull moments.

Drawing with crayons is much faster than using a computer.

Drawing on a computer requires time and effort, but when you use crayons, most of the lines are sketched, and you can finish a drawing in less than 20 minutes, which is dozens of times faster than the meticulous drawing on a computer.

But the part after the Shibuya Incident is different.

The original manga contained a lot of redundant battle scenes after the Shibuya Incident, and the main plot was loose, failing to grasp the main storyline of the protagonist group unsealing Gojo Satoru and forming bonds.

The early expansion of the domain is equivalent to a trump card, while the combat power collapses in the later stages.

The most absurd part was when Gojo Satoru and Sukuna were cut in half at the end. Their fighting power was inconsistent. According to the original rigorous setting, Sukuna's overpowered victory over Gojo Satoru was utterly ridiculous.

Furthermore, the five lines of enlightenment that were laid out in the early stages to reform the world of sorcery have not yet been implemented.

Most of the content that follows needs to be cut and changed.

...

When the comic book readers heard He Zhou and Xiao Wen discussing the upcoming plot developments, they immediately became engrossed.

[Aaaaaaah, Xiao Wen is practically my mouth double! So, will Gojo Satoru not die in the next episode?]

Judging from this, the lockdown should be lifted and the person shouldn't die.

[Great! This is exactly what I've been waiting for! Lao He, remember you're drawing a shonen manga!]

Xiao Wen couldn't help but mutter, "Old He, didn't you say before that Jujutsu Kaisen wasn't a traditional wish-fulfillment manga, but rather about individuals struggling in an unfair world?"

"Won't this ending break away from what you've already covered?"

"..."

He Zhou looked at Xiao Wen, who was completely immersed in the comic and no longer wallowing in self-pity, and chuckled: "Yeah, so what kind of ending do you think wouldn't feel so disjointed?"

"This……"

"It's not only struggle and failure that make a shonen manga tragic and heroic. Being cut short, dying, or other battle-stricken endings do not mean that a shonen manga is tragic and heroic."

"To overcome the opponent by paying the price of struggle."

He Zhou pondered for a moment: "For example, if someone comprehends a technique that requires all of their magical power in a desperate situation, turning Gojo Satoru from the strongest into an ordinary person who has lost ninety percent of his magical power, wouldn't it be tragic to change the world of magic?"

"Changing the world of sorcery, everyone's survival, and the tragic sense of struggle of individuals in an unfair world are not contradictory."

After that explanation, manga readers should have a general idea of ​​Kazuki's next move in Jujutsu Kaisen.

I was completely looking forward to it.

Most of Gojo Satoru's readers were able to accept it and breathed a sigh of relief.

...

After discussing the aftermath of Jujutsu Kaisen with Xiao Wen, He Zhou began drawing Journey to the West.

"Let's draw a preview first!"

“Draw the part where the master and disciple meet.”

"Let's add another background story about Tang Sanzang."

After he had made up his mind, he started drawing.

Journey to the West comics.

"You damned Buddha! You've pinned me down here, I can't even turn over!"

Sun Wukong was imprisoned under the Five Fingers Mountain.

The highest peak of the Five Elements Mountain radiates thousands of golden rays and auspicious clouds. On a square stone, there is a seal with the six golden characters "Om Mani Padme Hum" written on it.

He only needs to move slightly.

Lightning will strike him.

The comic book readers were extremely excited to see Sun Wukong finally appear.

[My Monkey King! My Monkey King is still sleeping!]

To be honest, this version of Monkey King actually looks quite pleasing to the eye.

[Only my Monkey King could be suppressed for five hundred years. If it were anyone else, their arms would be ruined.]

[The Monkey King is still too good-natured; he hasn't become abnormal in the past five hundred years and still has the mind to sleep.]

Everyone was happy while watching Journey to the West, and they were all excited at the thought that Sun Wukong was about to leave the Five Fingers Mountain.

I was almost impatient to know how the story would unfold.

revenge?

Are we going to cause trouble in Heaven again?

Why is this comic called Journey to the West?

Journey to the West...Where does it go in the west?

...

Everyone continued reading out of curiosity.

Journey to the West comics.

And a day in heaven.

A century underground.

The Buddha and Guanyin were preparing to find someone to retrieve the scriptures.

"It has been five hundred years since the demon monkey was suppressed at Five Elements Mountain."

“I have observed that the Great Tang Dynasty in the East has been waging war for years, with a murderous aura soaring to the sky. We now have the Tripitaka, which consists of 35 parts and 15,444 volumes, in order to persuade people to do good.”

"Jin Chanzi has been reincarnated."

"Guanyin, go to the East and teach him to come to me to seek the true scriptures."

at this time.

The reason why Journey to the West is called Journey to the West is finally beginning to be revealed.

Tang Sanzang, the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, wearing a cassock, chatted with Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty: "The Buddhist scriptures that our Tang Dynasty currently has are incomplete, and the Book of Changes has many flaws, making it impossible to study the true essence of Buddhism."

"I heard that the Tripitaka scriptures transmitted by the Buddha are in the Great Thunder Temple in India. I want to go to India and bring them back."

Upon hearing that they were to travel to the Great Thunder Temple in India to obtain Buddhist scriptures, Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty looked quite surprised.

"India?"

"Ah."

India is 108,000 li away from here.

There were countless demons and monsters on the road.

For a frail monk to go is clearly a pipe dream.

Chapter 155 Journey to the West 2

After witnessing Tang Sanzang's determination, the Tang emperor decided to become sworn brothers with him and presented him with a purple-gold alms bowl, a horse, and two professional attendants.

Tang Sanzang immediately agreed.

They will not return until they have obtained the true scriptures.

By this point in the story, many comic book readers will know that Journey to the West is about the journey to India to obtain Buddhist scriptures.

in reality.

"India?"

What is India?

Although the world Tian Xiaoxi lives in, which is mainly based on comics, is a parallel world to Xu Zhou's original world, with a larger population and a larger map, the general countries and regions remain largely unchanged.

"Ten thousand miles," plus the simple location description in the animation.

They quickly identified several suspicious points.

...

India?

Myanmar?

Everyone was stunned when they realized that they were learning from these places.

[India? Damn, could it be India? Going to India to fetch scriptures? What for? Water from the Ganges?]

Don't make me laugh; it might be the Ga Yao Zi region of Myanmar.

[Can you guys please stop projecting this onto reality? I can't concentrate on watching it if you do. The thought of them going to India and Myanmar to learn from their experiences makes me want to laugh.]

What is this "Journey to the West"? Can someone knowledgeable explain it to me?

The maps only partially overlap, but the cultural aspects are completely different.

Most people only have a superficial understanding of the Journey to the West and don't really understand what it means.

But soon.

He Zhou then gave a detailed explanation.

...

In the comics.

Xiao Wen was practically watching He Zhou's Journey to the West from the sidelines.

When he saw the Journey to the West, he didn't understand it at all and was completely confused.
