"I'm such an idiot."

After Sayaka sheds tears, she hatches and becomes a witch.

When the Soul Gem is tarnished and turns black, it will turn into a Lament Seed, and the magical girl will be reincarnated into a witch.

This is the fate that those who become magical girls cannot escape.

Seeing this scene, Kusakabe's brain immediately exploded. This adult man in his thirties was so horrified by the world being constructed in the comics that he was speechless.

"It's worse than...worse than I thought...the truth about magical girls is actually so...desperate..."

Compared with this, the world view of "Madoka" that he understood before, fighting and dying with the witch, seemed much simpler.

"I am really naive. I never thought that under the deep darkness, there are even deeper and terrifying monsters."

"What is Tori Akino thinking about in the future? How many times will he have to make the magical girls despair before he is willing to do it!"

"Does he really...have no human emotions?"

Kusakabe calmed down for a long time, then shiveringly took out a card from his jacket pocket. It was Sayaka who had transformed into a magical girl and was smiling happily.

At this stage, she was happy to have saved Kamijou Kyousuke.

He is also proud to protect humans from witches and become a partner of justice.

Follow in the footsteps of the longed-for Miss Tomoe Mami and complete her unfinished business.

But now...

Sayaka, who had empty eyes, shed her last tears and became a witch who wanted to take people's lives.

"A lively and cheerful little girl with a sense of justice, experienced despair over and over again, and finally came to a dead end. Is this what Tori Akino wants in the future? The truth behind the so-called innocent magical girl like a fairy tale."

The plot development of "Madoka" was even sadder than he thought.

After experiencing the incredible shock, Kusakabe became depressed.

…

"Everyone has seen the 16th episode of Puella Magi Madoka Magica."

Yoshida Koji raised his head and looked out the window.

He was deeply amazed when he saw the storyboard of this episode more than half a month ago.

It turns out that the foreshadowing that "Madoka" has been laying down all this time is just for use here.

He recalled Akatsuki Homura's lines, and many of them revealed to readers the cruelty of the magical girl world.

"Give up Sayaka Miki."

"It's the same thing as the dead being unable to be resurrected."

"Once you become a magical girl, there is no hope of redemption."

Koji Yoshida covered his forehead, "Really, Tori Akino-sensei has determined the direction of the plot from the first episode of "Madoka"."

"Even I, the editor, don't know."

If he had known this earlier, he would have understood that "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" is extraordinary and would never have thought it was a vulgar work.

"I shouldn't underestimate the teacher. His last painting was really carefully prepared before he started painting."

He had forgotten why he thought Tori Akino would stop writing in the future.

I just lament that Tori Akino’s final work still retains its quality.

The ability to control the work has improved to a higher level.

Just as Yoshida was thinking about it, the email message on his phone rang.

He picked it up and looked at it, and found that the person who sent the email was Omori.

"My comics have been serialized for more than half a year, so we should meet."

Yoshida was embarrassed.

In fact, "Diary of Despair" was serialized in February, and now in mid-August, the time agreed with them has been exceeded by several days.

Yoshida looked at his phone again. The last email chat between Xiaotian and Dasen was a week ago.

"It's time to end. Speaking of which, all the embarrassments I faced were all for Teacher Tori Akino!"

…

Omori Studio.

Omori put down the phone, his expression unchanged.

"Tori Akino-sensei is too much."

Assistants are chatting.

"That's right. I didn't expect that the righteous magical girl would eventually become the evil witch. Tori Akino-sensei is so calm."

"Calmness should be replaced by coldness."

"Too."

"Teacher," someone looked at Omori, "you used to be Mr. Tori Akino's assistant. What do you think of Mr. Tori Akino?"

"Emmm..." Omori pondered for a while, "It's terrible."

"horrible?"

"That's right, sensei, his ability to control the entire manga is really terrifying. There are very few works like "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" that have no flaws in the before and after comparison."

"Teacher Omori..."

"Um?"

"You are also terrifyingly calm."

"Haha, no way," Omori looked at the comic manuscript he was drawing, smiled and said, "It's just that now, I think more about the creator's point of view. When I read the comics, I always wonder where there is. There’s something to be learned. So the conclusion is different.”

His mind is entirely on the creation of comics, which is different from the reader's perspective, so he is not sad, and he is applauding the exquisite plot advancement of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".

"That's right...that's right." The assistants looked around and nodded.

"If I can grow up to the level of Tori Akino-sensei, I won't have to worry about whether the manga will be cut in half."

Omori raised his head and looked at the ceiling.

Every time he thinks of Niao Qiuye, he realizes his own shortcomings, and then he has fewer and fewer worldly thoughts. He only thinks that with hard work, his ability can get closer to Niao Qiuye.

…

"Homura Akatsuki jumped from another timeline." After feeling the unparalleled impact of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica", Naoko Takeuchi began to think about the role of Homura Akatsuki.

Judging from the details of "Madoka", Xiaomi Homura has experienced all this many times.

What she hopes to change after constantly traveling through time is the fact that Madoka becomes a magical girl.

Chasing Kyubey, being mature and stable under the childish appearance, knowing the way around the school, trying to save Tomoe Mami, knowing about the night of the witch, rejecting Madoka to become a magical girl, etc...

This is the life that Xiao Meiyan has experienced many times.

The first volume of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" just happened to be released. Naoko Takeuchi, who had reviewed the manga, was deeply impressed by the plot.

When Xiao Meiyan saw Madoka for the first time, she bit her lip and raised her head to prevent herself from crying.

“Never become someone else, or you’ll lose everything.”

There must be more stories behind Xiao Meiyan waiting to be discovered. This usually aloof character now seems to have many sad things.

Unknowingly, Naoko Takeuchi had broken her conventional views on magical girls and became immersed in the story of "Madoka".

For such an interesting comic, it would be too boring to worry about whether it has a magical girl setting or not.

…

There are two key periods in "Madoka Magica". One is naturally the death of Tomoe Mami, which brought a lot of traffic and changed the position of the "Puella Magi Madoka" jump crane.

One is the current Sayaka hatched into a witch.

Since the jump was released on Monday, there has been a flood of comments online.

Hibiki searched for magical girls on Yahoo, and the first one that popped up was Puella Magi Madoka Magica.

A large number of people were searching for Madoka in a short period of time.

"A magical girl becomes a witch? How could I have such a dream?"

"It's true! Tori Akino makes a brave man become a dragon, it's true."

"This is different from the hero and the dragon. It is a more relevant and complicated relationship."

Topics about witches also appear a lot on the Internet.

When readers learned that those hateful witches in the past were also magical girls, they became interested in discussing these characters with chaotic lines.

"The witch who killed Tomoe Mami is called the "Witch of Snacks." As you can see in the manga, there are cakes, candies and other snacks everywhere in the Witch's Barrier. Does this mean that the Snack Witch used to be a cute little girl who loved desserts? Because she made a wish to become a magical girl, she ended up becoming something terrible. "

"If you put it this way, the "Box Witch" in the eighth chapter of the manga is also like this. If you look carefully at the witch barrier clip in the comic, you can see the girl with twin tails on the TV. That should be the true form of the Box Witch. "

"In the world of the Box Witch, beautiful things such as Christmas trees and carousels are also sealed in boxes. Does the Box Witch seal the things she longs for? Does this have something to do with her wish?"

"Tori Akino-sensei also painted a lot of details for this witch who only appeared in one scene. There is so much content in Madoka waiting for us to explore."

"That's right. Before, I only thought that the scenes in the Witch's Barrier were just things that fill up the space. It was no big deal. I didn't expect that it was also foreshadowing."

"Tori Akino-sensei is really the king of foreshadowing."

"Subtle things also have meaning, which is one of the reasons for the success of "Puella Magi Madoka Magica."

"So..." someone asked, "What will the witch Sayaka turns into look like?"

This sparked a lot of responses, with some even using stick figures to draw it.

It is a character with tears on his face and surrounded by musical notes.

"Mirai Tori Akino: The painting is pretty good. I copied it."

"Ha ha."

Higashino Hibiki propped up his chin and looked at it. This year's netizens are so outstanding.

Because of the plot of Chapter 16 of the manga, they connected the entire story of "Madoka" and discovered many details.

Some people are speculating whether Xiaomi Homura is Madoka in the future. She made a wish because she wanted to change the past. As a result, through constant efforts, she evolved from an immature girl to an indifferent person.

Many people agree with this guess.

"That's right! Their faces look almost the same!"

"This is what comics are all about. The characters are all the same except for their hair..."

"That's not right. It's impossible for Madoka in the future to turn a blind eye to Sayaka. She will care more about Tomoe Mami and Sayaka than herself. Madoka is very kind."

"that's true……"

"The identity of Akatsuki Homura is actually not important anymore. The manga reveals that she is a character who will appear in the future. Tori Akino-sensei can set up Akatsuki Homura's story as much as she likes. There is no need to force comparison with the characters who appeared."

"it seems to be like this."

"Do you only agree? You said "me too" to three different ideas. I'm really speechless. "

There are still too many doubts about "Puella Magi Madoka Magica".

Before it was revealed, readers had their imaginations running wild and kept discussing.

In fact, this comic has only been serialized for more than four months.

In "One Piece", a chapter has just begun.

"I'm really looking forward to the follow-up content. Although I will be sad when watching "Madoka", at the same time, this is also the reason why I like "Madoka"."

"Manga artists take readers seriously, and I will support sincere works like "Puella Magi Madoka Magica."

"That's right, I'm going to buy the booklet now!"

"+1!"

"+1!"

…

Each +1 seemed to be the same, Hibiki's blood boiled with excitement.

"The more the merrier."

If it is not forced to be depressing and the work has a rigorous plot and does not tease readers, readers will still be able to accept it.

"Don't learn from your father." Behind Higashino Hibiki, Higashi Yexi held Higashino Mirai's little hand and educated him, "Stay in front of the computer and giggle."

"Hehe." Miku Higashino giggled.

This child is naturally optimistic and loves to laugh.

"mua~" However, the elders liked this look, and Higashino couldn't help but kiss Higashino Mirai on the cheek.

"Haha." Mirai Higashino was still laughing, "Grandma, it's tickling."

"If it's itchy, give it another kiss from grandma and it will stop itching."

"Ha ha."

Higashikata turned around, looked at the intimate exchange between his grandfather and grandson, and closed the computer.

"Let's take the future to the square to play today. There is a playground for children there."

"Okay." Dong Yexi looked up, "We are missing a driver, right? Future?"

"Um!"

…

On Friday afternoon, Koji Yoshida came to Tori Akino Studio.

"Where's Tori Akino-sensei?"

He saw only the river.

Xiaohe took out the manuscript of the 17th episode of "Madoka" and handed it to Yoshida Koji, "The teacher and his family went out to play. I'll wait for you here."

He looked up at the sun, "It's been 4 or 5 hours, Editor Yoshida, you're finally here."

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the manuscript of Chapter 17 of "Madoka" was completed.

Xiaohe also thought that he could go home quickly to spend time with his children.

Unexpectedly, not long after, I heard the news that the Dongye family was going out for fun.

He also gave the precious manuscript to himself.

Xiaohe was on pins and needles, always worried that something might happen, so he put the manuscript in his sight.

Now, Koji Yoshida is finally here. He breathed a sigh of relief after handing over the manuscript.

"Going out to play? It's really rare. I have good news to inform Mr. Tori Akino."

Xiaohe was curious, "Can you tell me?"

"It's nothing." Yoshida took out the manuscripts in the document bag and looked at them one by one, "That's just the first place for Xiaozheng in "Madoka"."

"That's it?"

"Yeah." Yoshida nodded.

Xiaohe was a little disappointed. It was inevitable that Xiaozheng won the first place in the sixteenth episode of "Madoka". After all, it was a plot that had been laid out for a long time.

"There is no problem." Yoshida finished flipping through the manuscript and looked around the studio. Even if there was a problem, it would be difficult to modify it. "Excuse me, Mr. Xiaohe, I have received the manuscript."

"I didn't do it for nothing, haha."

Wait a few hours, get paid, and many people will want to replace him.

Then Xiaohe and Yoshida Koji closed the door of Higashino's house and left together.

…

Long Ze looked at "Madoka" with an uncertain expression.

He has no confidence in comparing comics like this.

His follow-up work will only make a fool of himself if it competes with "Madoka".

"I regret……"
