Chapter 101: Qiaoqiao Doesn't Understand Manga Creation

Hoshikawa Gogan had just finished her lunch at the temple and was preparing to rest by sleeping a nap while dreaming of Buddha. Her phone suddenly vibrated. It was a message from the Tokyo Exorcism Club. "Hm? Who would this be at this time?" Hoshikawa Gogan looked at her phone. Newcomer: Do any of you have any ideas for an erotic comic involving exorcism? Waiting online, very urgent. "?" Qiao Sang had started the exorcism so quickly? Wait, what was the connection between ideas for erotic comics and exorcism? Especially since Qiao Sang was an underage girl, why would she need ideas for erotic comics? Fortunately, it was a group chat. Hoshikawa Gogan thought she could simply pretend not to see it. Instead, she might fall asleep and wait until the afternoon, probably the matter would have been resolved by then. While pondering this, new messages appeared in the group. Unique-specified Ghost God: What aspect of erotic manga does "O" refer to? Is it violent and bloody, or ero—expose ero—? Suzaku my wife: Of course it's the small ero—book, you idiot, hehe, I understand. Lately, the content of "Fast O Heaven" has indeed become much tamer, and it's only natural to seek stimulation. I suggest checking out Koushun Takami's works, it will definitely open the door to a new world. Doll Machine Killer: Teacher Takami is too heavy for newcomers, it's a bit stimulating. Unique-specified Ghost God: Haha, that dead otaku only rushes towards such heavy comics, fundamentally not understanding the true essence of erotic manga. Newcomer: No... To be accurate, I am currently beside Teacher Koushun Takami. Qiao Qiao saw that the group, instead of giving suggestions, was seriously discussing ero— preferences, so he timely spoke up to correct. Although according to the entrustor's privacy rules, he should not say these things, but to better solve the event, after consulting Koushun Takami, Qiao Qiao simply explained the situation. Suzaku my wife: To surpass Teacher Takami's current works without adding heavy elements is very difficult, it's like the airplane ero— have already become giant ero— shapes, too small a size probably can't satisfy. Unique-specified Ghost God: No, I think the opposite, after reading those decadent stories, adopting some pure and fresh plots would actually make readers' eyes freshen up, pure love is always the biggest audience at any time. Wishbow Dao Onceover: Compared to pure love... isn't the resonance of forbidden love more able to cause people's resonance? Newcomer: Hm? How do you mean? Seeing the unexpected person, Qiao Qiao felt some curiosity. I wonder what high opinions Fujiwara Miko has. Wishbow Dao Onceover: For example, the gap in identity and status leading to the unpermitted of love, or even the hindrance of different genders, such stories naturally carry strong narrative quality, don't they? "?" Qiao Qiao saw Fujiwara Miko's remarks, somewhat not understanding. Identity and status, he could still reference Shakespeare's stories. But the hindrance of gender? Would it turn into a completely different manga? Wishbow Dao Onceover: Imagine an elegant monk and a handsome international student, originally no intersection, but by chance they jointly acted, conflicts in concepts, differences in identity and status, making them confront each other, but with the progress of the story, the two finally discovered that they were already inseparable, and on a rainy night, the two finally took that forbidden step... Ghost Shark: ! Cat Noodle Really Delicious: ! Heart Calm Every Day: ! Yong Cheng Today Reciting Sutras: ? Newcomer: ? Qiao Qiao felt that his understanding of the group members was refreshed again. Yong Cheng Today Reciting Sutras: Although the young monk hadn't read similar comics, perhaps one could start from the precepts of the Buddha, acts violating the precepts could probably serve as reference. Doll Machine Killer: Why not simply set a male protagonist who is everywhere, so that the readers' sense of substitution is better, after all, Takami's previous works, although heavy taste, were still one-on-one, speaking of erotic comics, multiple ero— isn't it a classic? Suzaku my wife: Right, the Vtuber elements are very popular now, if added, it might be very interesting! Unique-specified Ghost God: This person is so disgusting, wanting to see his own wife ero— with other men, are otaku like this? Wishbow Dao Onceover: Forbidden love attracts the most eyeballs! Especially two strong males, mutually not yielding, filled with muscles and sweat battles, absolutely can let the audience enjoy! The group gave many suggestions with their various voices. Qiao Qiao collected them properly, slightly processed them, and handed them to Koushun Takami. "?" Koushun Takami looked at these suggestions. For a moment, he was a bit unclear who was the real evil ghost. "But... maybe it can work." Koushun Takami looked at these suggestions, suddenly inspiration surged. "Master, I'll go draw the storyboard first, you do as you please." Once the creator's inspiration for creation surges, they can't control themselves, only wanting to spray freely. Koushun Takami was exactly like that. Qiao Qiao was tactful enough not to disturb him, but tidied up his things and waited on the side. Two hours later, Koushun Takami let out a long sigh, he had finally finished drawing the storyboard. "Master, please look." He handed the storyboard to Qiao Qiao. There were many different styles for comic storyboards, some liked casually sketching with matchstick figures, some liked detailed drafts, Koushun Takami's storyboard already had some comic form, not requiring excessive imagination to read. The story started from the battlefield. "Battlefield?" Qiao Qiao suddenly had a surge of curiosity. The protagonist was an experienced mercenary, at the beginning of the story, it was him just having killed an enemy, his comrade had sunk into meat ero— and was assassinated. Then, the protagonist received a task to return to the country to protect a male Vtuber. This Vtuber had a bad temper, often falling into danger multiple times, fortunately the protagonist was experienced and resolved the crisis. At the same time, this Vtuber would occasionally flirt with the protagonist, making the story full of an atmosphere of given. The storyboard had passed six pages, and the main plot hadn't started yet. This comic actually gave Qiao Qiao a feeling of reading seinen manga. As time passed, after saving the Vtuber again, the protagonist suddenly realized that he had already fallen in love with him. When the two fleeing were drenched by rain in a rundown temple, the protagonist discovered that this male Vtuber was actually a girl. The two finally opened their hearts and understood each other. Then it was a continuous battle plot of over ten pages. Although the battle plot had no heavy erotic elements. But the battle style using various weapons as props, combined with Koushun Takami's exquisite human anatomy, made the overall scene full of impact. Especially the scenes of the two fighting in front of solemn and majestic Buddha statues. Three consecutive frames, using fixed shots, reflecting the passage of time with changes in sunlight. Under the Buddha statue, the world is vast. It had a sense of sacred art-like beauty. In the entire story, the protagonist changed from the cold killing machine that didn't trust others at the beginning to gradually being softened, becoming a man with normal emotions. And the female protagonist's change from the initially mischievous little devil-like male persona to later becoming a soft and weak girl, the change also made people heart-wrenching. Even, Qiao Qiao also saw the anti-war thoughts behind the story. War is cruel, it can turn humans into demons. And love is beautiful, it can turn demons back into humans. The male protagonist was fortunate, he had his lover, away from the battlefield. But there are more people deeply trapped in the war, unfortunate people, who will rescue them? The last storyboard of the comic was a wasteland after the war. On the broken walls of the wasteland, in the scorched earth, a pure white flower was blooming tenaciously on the discarded gun barrel. This scene was thrilling and heart-stopping. Undoubtedly, this was not only an erotic comic. This was more of an artwork!
