Chapter 28: Sensei Baijie's Goal is the Entire World!
To be honest, because of ethnic differences, Europe and America had a different viewpoint about Loli with Japan. Many 18-year-old Japanese young girls could still be regarded as "Loli" in the eyes of Europeans and Americans.
Therefore, the Japanese government had to stipulate that girls in anime must be over 18 years old at that time.
Mangaka and animation studios responded to the call of the government and actively changed the setting of young girls' ages in their works.
Is she a Loli? No, no, no, you're wrong. She is actually a 300-year-old vampire, but for various reasons, she still looked like a Loli in shape.
Is she a Loli? No, she is actually a demon over a thousand years old.
Oh, and this girl, yes, she isn't a vampire or demon, but she isn’t a Loli. She is the protagonist's 28-year-old sister, she just looks like a Loli but is actually an adult. Why? Well, it's probably because her physical ability is retarded.
"What is the so-called 'legal Loli'? Actually, it's to point at a Loli and insist that she is an adult!"
So the two female roles in the next manga were determined. One was the protagonist Oda's stepmother, and the other was the protagonist's sister who was already 26 years old but had a 14-year-old delicate and lovely figure.
After that, they started to discuss the plot in the story. Kasannoin Ayase wasn't very interested this time, it seemed that she had been doubting and thinking, and hadn't said too much.
It was already late at night, and Ida Shinji was going to leave. Before leaving, he asked, "Sensei Baijie, how many chapters are in the new manga?"
"Probably still 7 chapters."
"Oh, I see. However, I personally hope that the manga could be longer. Of course, you make up your own mind. Oh, it's getting late, I must leave now."
"Take your way."
Shortly after Ida Shinji left, Kasannoin Ayase also left the attic, and the discussion between Shimizu Hakuseki and Kitahara Shimomura became more in-depth…
"If we are going to draw 7 chapters or longer, are two female roles enough? Don’t we need more female characters?" asked Kitahara Shimomura.
"Don't worry, I'm going to introduce career settings this time."
"Career setting?"
"The protagonist's stepmother and sister aren't just housewives, but also office ladies with their own jobs."
"Oh, oh, interesting, what are their careers?"
"Teacher and nurse."
"Of course the stepmother is a teacher, so the sister is a nurse?"
"Yes, so in painting, we need to consider the uniform design and introduce sexy uniforms. The two female roles can change their clothes and identities in different chapters, naturally, they would 'battle' in more places such as hospital and school. And about the painting style, we must make changes and improvements."
"Aren't you satisfied with the current painting style? It's already the best painting style I can think of."
"Yes, this painting style indeed has an advantage in the expression of the roles of pure young girls, but it has some shortcomings in the expression of the roles of attractive mature females."
"So what should we do?"
Shimizu Hakuseki touched his chin and remembered Oda Non's mangas and Izayoi Seishin's mangas. The mature women under their brushes had extraordinary charm and great attraction for young people. Their painting styles were similar and both of them were outstanding mangakas. But in general, Oda Non's painting style was more gorgeous while the lines under Izayoi Seishin's brush were more concise.
In this way, he could only imitate Izayoi Seishin's painting style. After all, the paper and printing of Taboo Paradise weren't exquisite, it was difficult to express complex pictures in the magazine. In this case, simple lines and pictures were more suitable for the present situation.
"I have an idea about the painting style. I will draw an example and you will know what the new painting style is at that time."
Kitahara Shimomura had already felt that his blood was boiling in his body. It was really lucky to follow such a good teacher to paint. In Kitahara's eyes, Sensei Baojie's pursuit of painting seemed endless. Even after he had surpassed the limitations of the times, he was still unwilling to stop. He was still trying to break through his own limit and continue to move forward!
Only this kind of person has the chance to become a world-famous master!
'I really want to start working right away!'
Different from Kitahara, Shimizu Hakuseki clearly knew that the preparation for the next manga was still not complete.
In this manga, he would show the charm of a mature woman's body in two manners. One was to adjust the character's body proportion appropriately. First was to increase the size of breasts appropriately, which was a secret skill of painting that would never change. In the face of young people, there was nothing that couldn't be solved by big boobs. At the same time, the character's legs should also be more rounded but not too exaggerated, keeping the character's body in an acceptable proportion.
Another important part was women's clothes. In mangas, women's charm largely depended on clothes. How to dress a girl was actually a knowledge that needed deep research.
Those who had thoroughly studied the "dressing knowledge" could be able to cheat money in this manner, such as "Cardcaptor Sakura" and so on. Its plot was simple and the structure of the story was clear at a glance. The core selling point was like this: Sakura encountered a monster, she changed into beautiful clothes and defeated the monster; Sakura encountered another monster, she changed into other beautiful clothes and defeated the new monster. In this manner, she changed into a variety of beautiful and lovely clothes to defeat various monsters, and businessmen could catch little girls' hearts and cheat their money by selling Sakura’s toy model with the clothes Sakura had worn.
