April 22, Saturday morning.

　　 Today is supposed to be Earth Day, but it is a peaceful and stable day.

　　 But... for Shueisha, it was a terrible day. The entire company revealed a deep breath. It should be said that it has been in this state since it received the news that "Reaper" was about to be cut.

　　 Anyone who has a little contact with the comics industry knows that the major comic publishing houses of Neon, Kodansha, Shueisha, and Xiao Xueguan, are also known as the three males of the neon publishing industry.

　　 is also the three most powerful comic publishing houses in the world today!

　　The Baiquan Society, which has gradually caught up recently, should not be underestimated. In other words, the relationship between Baiquan Society, Shueisha, and Xiaoxueguan has been a bit complicated since the past.

　　 Kodansha, Shogakukan, and Shueisha all have similar influence in Neon, but if it is said that the most influential overseas publishing house, it is undoubtedly Shueisha!

　　 Every week, it’s all neon... No, it should be said that it is the big comic friends all over the world. The people who have expectations of Weekly Boy Jump have always been the most.

　　 If you really want to ask the reason, in addition to Shueisha's strong strength, the reason is that the influence of "Reaper" is too great.

　　 belonged to Shueisha in the Kubo era. At that time, it had become an invincible giant in the comics industry, creating an incredible industry myth and inheriting its glory to this day.

　　Of course, even without "Reaper", Shueisha is still one of the three biggest comics giants in the world. After all, the fans and fame gathered for so many years, as well as the world's top comic quality, is an untouchable fact.

　　Although Neon has thousands of comic publishers of the same nature, and once wanted to follow the example of the three great masters, it was just a matter of thinking in my heart, because it had no influence or capital.

　　 To say why, the explanation is very simple.

　　 The reason why the three masters can succeed is because they have accumulated many years of accumulation and can squander the credit capital at will.

　　In this era, or in any era, the most valuable has never been money, nor is it hard goods such as real money, but the credit that people most easily ignore.

　　 You can't buy money, but you can definitely get money with it.

　　 This is why other comic publishers, even if they have enough funds, cannot follow the example of the three great masters.

　　 Kodansha, Shogakukan, and Shueisha, the three giants of the comics industry, undoubtedly, have already formed a virtuous circle. The three parties only see each other in their eyes.

　　 It can even be said that there have never been thousands of other comic publishing houses in the eyes. Even if there are some comic publishing houses that are beginning to emerge, the three people just look at them with their straight eyes.

　　Competitor? Non-existent, non-existent...

　　Because of the confidence of the three masters, in addition to the top quality of the comics in the series, they can directly cut down the unqualified comics directly based on the opinions of the readers.

　　 sounds capricious, but it does meet the needs of the public, so it can be successful.

　　 If other publishers cannot receive quality manuscripts and still do so, it is estimated that it will go bankrupt soon.

　　 That is to say, the current situation in the comics industry has been in the internal competition since the three-legged period.

　　 Shueisha will not worry about withdrawing from the ranks of the three majors, because as long as you don’t do it yourself, your position will basically be firmly established.

　　 What Shueisha is now worried about is that without the phenomenon-level comic "Reaper", facing the other two increasingly popular "Inuyasha" and "Fairy Tail", the position of the dragon's head has begun to loosen.

　　Especially "Inuyasha", if it is not from the perspective of the female protagonist, it may have become a phenomenon-level comic, but if the protagonist is changed, it may not be as good as the original.

　　……

　　 is still the same room the last time, and the people sitting in it have not changed. The president Marue Horiuchi had the meeting in person, but I didn't mean to say anything. The whole venue was quiet and scary.

　　 For a while, Horiuchi Marue made a gloomy face, sighed heavily, and said weakly, "Could it be this simple end..."

　　 "President... this is no way."

　　 After the editor-in-chief Matsumoto said this, the figure that originally looked vicissitudes of life became even more lonely in an instant.

　　 Everyone also kept silent, because the news reported by major TV stations just now brought the storm to come.

　　 "Reaper" author Kubo Tairen has already mentioned the cut manga several times, and Shueisha has indeed released the news.

　　 They still remember that as soon as the news of "Reaper" was cut in half, it immediately triggered a sit-in and various parades across the country to express their dissatisfaction.

Forced by the helplessness of the society, the Shueisha at the time went back to beg Kubo to lead people, and continued to serialize for a while before stopping public opinion~lightnovelpub.net~ If there is a better choice, or a slightly worse choice, both It's not like this.

　　 Kubo takes the man as the Tarzan Beidou in the comics world. The success of "Reaper" is undoubtedly, it has gained great popularity and has become a phenomenon-level comic.

　　 But in the later stage, the same repeated fighting plots and various routines, various problems continue to appear, and "Reaper" has come to an end.

　　 Kubo Tairen was unwilling to continue painting. Shueisha also wanted to respect the opinions of Kubo Tairen. However, the news of "Reaper" cut the manga in half had too much impact, and both parties could only temporarily compromise.

　　 The senior executives of Shueisha know that if the "Reaper", which has collapsed in the later period, continues to be serialized, the price to be paid is credit, and the future is the overdraft.

　　 But from another point of view, there is also a comforting place, that is, the influence of the **** of death!

　　 I had to let "Reaper" continue to be serialized for a while. When the public opinion reached the smallest point, Shueisha and Kubo Taito finally made a decision and officially cut the "Reaper" manga!

　　 Although this is a pity, the price of continuing to serialize "Reaper" is too expensive.

　　 Once the official news came out, it still caused a great impulse, but it was only when Kubo led the person to explain it in person, and the commotion gradually subsided.

　　 Not long after the incident of "Reaper" cut the comics, there was another Shueisha that had known in advance what would happen, but when it happened, there was still a moment of silence.

　　 Just now, Fuji, TBC, ANB, TV TOKYO, etc..., as well as major network broadcasting platforms, are all promoting the same news.

　　 The animated version of "Reaper"... cut in half, the Kubo era, officially ended! !
