There are various things that are bad, but the typographical errors in the phototypesetting are really the worst…!
>>1
Masopp!
>>8
I got a boyfriend.
Well, there are people who don’t really have the motivation and think of themselves as just carriers of the manuscript.
>>2
This protagonist is a passionate editor who is striving for the sake of manga artists to release popular works to the world.
>>6
They have motivation and probably speak about that vision beautifully from the heart, but…
There are people who don’t study or make any effort at all.
>>11
You’re suddenly stabbing me from behind, aren’t you?
Incompetent enough not to disturb the writer.
Even if you say there are a lot of works, there probably aren’t that many episodes.
I did it!
I will do it now.
>>7
Monster…
The penis is out!
A spin-off project is being developed without permission…!?
Well, I wonder if that’s really how it is…
>>13
Since there are indications that the original creators are enthusiastic, a spin-off story has emerged from the original author and the editorial side.
If they are moving forward without getting the consent of the person in charge of the main story’s comic adaptation, then it might be possible.
In terms of rights, illustrators are really weak.
What’s scary is this editor.
I understand that, in manga, the role of introducing how-tos is often done by making mistakes.
“Everyone around me lacks motivation, but I am overflowing with enthusiasm.”
It’s a matter of self-awareness.
I don’t like that it feels like a story or episode based on actual editing experiences.
>>17
I think it clearly goes beyond what the protagonist should be doing, but if it’s based on real experiences, it might have become desensitized…
Based on what the anonymous person is saying…
Does that mean there are no erotic scenes edited by a sadistic editor…?
I wonder if she was wearing that ribbon during the job interview.
Huh…?
“Are you telling me to take off the ribbon while I am supporting the proofreading work on my own…?”
“I thought it was seriously scary to have an uneducated worker who thinks they are a motivated good person.”
>>21
Too much of an incompetent worker.
Shoot to kill.
I understand that the story is about a passionate but inexperienced protagonist and a capable senior who has something in their past.
I have a feeling that it might be set up a bit too immaturely, and I’m wondering if it can depict growth.
The ribbon that looks like it’s from an anime character stands out among the other characters with regular hairstyles…
I can understand not wanting to cause waves and opting for ambiguity because of things like this being said.
I thought having 21 volumes already published is quite a lot, but since I’ve written over 10 works, it basically gets canceled…
My penis is out.
I don’t really care, but I dislike the roundabout remarks unique to proofreading and editing.
The protagonist is motivated but has no knowledge, skills, or experience at all, causing failures and trouble for those around them.
It’s a typical manga template where a senior teaches and helps out with various things as one learns.
If we limit it to the former, there are quite a few in real life as well.
You shouldn’t use spin-off manga like a surprise party.
My best friend has become a successful manga artist, and if I had gotten involved, it would have just been a hindrance.
Rather, not having motivation was still less frightening.
It’s scary to think that they are actually motivated with this.
>>33
It’s still good if you’re motivated but aware of your own inexperience.
What’s scary is that there was nothing even up until this incident.
Since there are only useless seniors around me, even though I have the motivation, no one tells me how to do my best, so I remain incompetent.
But since a capable and exemplary person has emerged, it’s not strange to say that I’ll learn from this person and surpass them, right?
>>36
It’s really scary that someone with drive has been incompetent all this time.
They believe the reputation of the initial move online, allowing it to be serialized and then canceled, causing real harm.
It’s really lacking for you not to have read the past works of the author you are in charge of…
I’m glad it clearly states that editing is not allowed.
It’s only natural to be sincere about the work of the person in charge…
>>41
So what was this child trying to be caring about in the author?
>>43
So, you thought it didn’t matter if it didn’t sell because you were really invested in it, right? You weren’t thinking at all about the future of a manga artist’s life, were you? That’s what they’re saying!
The protagonist is wrong about everything, incompetent, and all their mistakes are clearly pointed out!
>>51
Until now, I didn’t know what I considered to be a passionate editor on the side of the author, as pointed out.
But it was my misunderstanding, sorry.
This writer didn’t care at all.
>>41
Sincere.
It’s not good to try to balance both.
Isn’t the mistake between brother and younger brother worse than getting a penis out?
Let’s at least read the manga we’re in charge of…
The editorial department surviving through isekai manga adaptations.
It’s quite outrageous that there’s no need to inform the artist in charge of the main comic adaptation about the new spin-off story, and that it’s intended as a surprise gift.
Is confusing an older brother with a younger brother originally in English?
Huh? Sorry, I might have read that wrong.
This guy doesn’t care about writers at all and has no interest in them.
Are you just trying to take credit as the editor of a popular work?
In that case, it’s not surprising to neglect the writer.
>>49
That’s right.
I was told to properly wear a ribbon on my head, and I realized that wearing a ribbon on my head shows that I take my work as a manga artist seriously, so in the end, I decided to follow your example.
>>67
I mistook you for someone who was working hard for the sake of the writers, sorry…
This guy was only doing everything for himself.
I had strange expectations because you were acting like a good person.
>>72
This guy’s dream is to create the most interesting manga, not to cater to the circumstances of manga artists or to create popular manga.
So from the beginning, why did you have me draw with this theme when it was never going to sell with the ribbon? It’s bound to get criticized.
In the first place, if manga creators don’t sell their work, they can’t draw manga, right? So I end up reflecting on that after hearing it at the end.
>>105
Despite aiming to be an editor based on my experience with my best friend, I guess I had been treating the idea of becoming a manga artist as disposable until it was mentioned to me…
That’s why the passionate editor has a scary personality.
>>112
I actually think there are probably people like this.
It’s like showing motivation without any achievements or studying.
There are quite a few people who don’t really make an effort but, for some reason, have a high self-awareness and end up doing nothing but unnecessary things, thinking they are motivated.
You don’t need to make that part so real…
For now, I feel a hint of yuri from Ribbon-chan, so I think I’ll read it.
Since they are the incompetent workers that Zeekt mentioned, I guess there’s nothing to do but kill them.
If the story is about the protagonist of a work-related manga growing, then this position is suitable for storytelling.
However, it is essential to depict them as inept workers, and neglecting this will lead to negative reviews.
It seems that this manga has cleared that part, at least.
I really think it’s terrible to pretend to be enthusiastic like this.
There may be parts that resonate with me.
People who ridicule the entire manga often blow up one aspect of failure in work-related manga.
>>58
I don’t know what you read to think that, but the link to the manga in the thread is posted above, so go read it.
Did Zeekt really say something like that?
What was the rumor again?
>>59
There are various theories.
Whether I actually said it or not.
I was just joking and not being serious in my argument.
It was someone else who said that.
and so on
I feel like I’ve seen the phrase “ochinko deru” somewhere.
Well, you don’t have to worry, I quickly drop any mediocre manga in Ultra Jump.
Isn’t it a great use case for how incompetent workers can cause discord?
>>62
I understand why I felt so uncomfortable.
I wanted to become an editor since my student days, but I was too lazy to study.
>>63
Despite having admired this world for decades, it seems they don’t know anything at all and have been criticized for it all along.
The same mistakes keep being repeated.
The best way to enjoy work-related manga is to be unemployed… is that what you’re saying?
If it’s a crappy edit, is editing in manga really necessary? There are a lot of things that come up with that.
Ms. Miyabi is sexy.
>>70
Perhaps the image is of Kaoru Mori-sensei.
If the protagonist were reflecting on their own faults, it would be one thing, but the rivalry vibe of “I won’t acknowledge someone like you, deputy editor!” is really pathetic.
>>71
Since they fail because of that in the story, just read the whole first episode or something…
>>81
Whether to fail, reflect, or change.
>>71
Are you reading a different manga than me?
Making other characters shine by making the comparison characters excessively incompetent tends to push readers away instead.
Perhaps because it’s too easy to depict, I still see it in various places now.
This protagonist will get into a love triangle with a ribbon and a super popular author, right!
I understand!
I thought the ribbon head was big, but in other panels, it looks small, which confuses me.
In other words, the height is obviously variable.
In the first two pages, it clearly states that editing is the job of selling the writer, and the protagonist couldn’t imagine what would happen to a manga artist if they couldn’t do that. Despite their intentions of having motivation and sincerity, they are just a fool. Even though it’s the first episode, I can only say that it’s true that they are incompetent.
>>79
That’s right, so it’s scary.
I want to depict the protagonist who has enthusiasm but is still inexperienced, and the capable but ill-natured sub-editor.
The protagonist just looks like a loser because they are slacking off to the point where you would think they would be doing it if they had any enthusiasm.
Sometimes there are people who think of their editor as either a dad or a mom, or both.
It’s just a site supervisor acting as a subcontractor for a general contractor, right?
>>87
You don’t need to take care of areas outside of your job scope, but aren’t you supposed to do your job properly?
>>87
You can’t even do the job of that site supervisor.
Most readers are likely to drop out before the protagonist grows.
Do you need a massive ribbon?
The teacher who doesn’t get angry at the excessive poor edits is just too common.
>>90
As a result, it’s hard for the person to think of it as anything other than being looked down upon.
It’s nice that they neglect tedious tasks like proofreading but still put in effort for pointless surprises…
It seems that there are some people who interpret that I didn’t come to like you because I recognized you as a goal and an opponent to surpass as an editor.
>>94
Is that what you call tsundere?
>>96
Earlier, Ribbon said to me, “Someday you will come to like me!”
I admire it, but I’ll surpass it someday! Besides, this is different from what I fell in love with! I said.
>>114
(That’s so tsundere…)
>>94
It’s an otherworldly uncle!
◆What about this edit…?
It looks like I’m getting angry in the end because my boss, who is also at a level where he gives guidance based on work quality.
The reason this protagonist is no good is that it’s disrespectful to the author and the art; someone should guide them before the new editor arrives.
>>102
It’s just handling the aftermath of a defeat on the verge of going out of business, and since there’s no motivation and it doesn’t matter, no one points it out, right?
>>102
Looks like I don’t have the motivation.
On the contrary, I hope you don’t show off your enthusiasm and capability in future discussions.
If it happens, it will turn into malice because the protagonist has not been educated until now.
>>102
It is said from the protagonist’s perspective that the motivation around them is low.
Well, I’m not sure how it is with this feeling, though.
>>102
Everything around is depicted as trash, right?
The role of an editor is too vague and I don’t understand it.
Are you fulfilling your official duties from the company just by transporting manuscripts without being involved in the work?
Is it part of the job to go through past works like in the thread and give descriptive advice, or is it just a way to drain motivation?
>>107
In school-themed stories, the editor might create an overall map of the school.
The only thing I can praise about this guy is that he’s great for not dragging his best friend down by staying away!
It’s like a story where a genius first-year ace shows up in a baseball club that’s falling apart and full of delinquents.
>>110
In that analogy, the only motivated protagonist is so ignorant about baseball that it makes you think, “What is this guy?”
From the writer’s perspective, I want the editor to be a host.
Editing feels like a job I do because I dislike customer service.
This teacher’s expression of strength and surprise is about 90% due to the unexpected attack from behind, so please try not to draw it out of habit next time.
I was confused by a panel where I couldn’t tell if the character was facing backward or forward.
Is it necessary to get permission to start a spin-off, just as an adaptation of the original work and not as the original creator?
>>123
If you think it’s unnecessary, you can do whatever you like.
Even the comic artist in charge has the right to step down from a job that they’ve been treated poorly in.
>>123
There shouldn’t be any legal issues, but…
It’s an example of how failing to follow through can lead to trouble.
>>123
If there are depictions not found in the original work and it’s still established, then it’s fine.
>>123
One of the stakeholders in the story is explicitly identified as being concerned about profit distribution; do you have any thoughts on that?
>>123
I will contact you as usual.
>>123
Since the comic is based on a minor web novel that hasn’t been published in book form, I think there are considerable rights involved.
Manga editor Takeda-kun
There must be many manga artists whose potential has been crushed because of this guy, and in that regard, it’s already impossible to follow up.
If I had to say, I feel like this guy growing up and being able to create hits instead of just having his works canceled would be a form of atonement.
My penis is out!
Could it be that the manga artist’s personal grievances are somewhat reflected in this protagonist?
Aside from the unpleasant aspects, it was a fairly intriguing work that left me wanting to know what happens next.
Reading the already published 21 volumes…!?
>>134
What are you going to do if you become a mob character in another world?
This is fiction, but I’ve seen a series (that was canceled) that was so full of typos every time that I wanted to doubt the editing process.
At least let’s surprise them and make them happy! It’s not something to keep quiet about.
T, who is just annoying, has actually been involved in several hit works, so they must be capable.
>>138
Seriously capable.
There are times when the bad jokes with the original creator are really bad.
Isn’t it a bit too reckless not to read the past works of the assigned author…?
>>141
Are you saying I should buy it?
>>145
It’s fine if you read it without buying.
The work doesn’t feel unpleasant because it’s intentionally drawn as an incompetent protagonist.
>>143
It is also a double protagonist compared to the capable deputy editor.
Isn’t it too harsh to tell a veteran of this series not to write out of habit? Just say it yourself…
>>146
The number of installments and the number of published works…
Usually, that’s not the case, but the animator treats the protagonist like a bodhisattva and gets constantly disrespected, so it’s no wonder they lose their temper.
>>148
What the… just because I mistyped “forgive” as “kill” and changed the planned 10 signed copies to 100…
>>158
It’s terrible how plausible the screw-up seems.
>>162
In a way, it’s an inside joke, and similar things probably happened.
>>162
It’s out…!
>>158
The latter wouldn’t be surprising if a denunciation manga were released, or rather, it has already been released.
Why do they criticize the portrayal of incompetence in the first episode so much when it’s clear that it’s a story about the growth of an incapable person?
In Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai, is there a person who just can’t forgive Pop for how cowardly and useless he was in the beginning, no matter how much he has grown?
>>149
I can understand if it were a rookie like in “Shuppan Shutsujin,” but this guy has a decent career and has caused victims.
>>149
Before convincing Maho, it’s generally not allowed…
>>149
I understand the intention, but isn’t this a typical case of a problem with the way it’s presented?
As expected, being too inexperienced as a working adult before growing up is problematic.
>>149
That misunderstanding that if a new work has the same elements as a past masterpiece, it should have the same value is already annoying.
To be honest, there’s no reason to keep quiet, and if there’s movement in the overall work, it’s better to report it…
Well, if you show me a tale of growth, then I’ll praise you at that time.
There must be many works in the world that end up being “why is this?” because their passion went awry.
It’s also great that the character who is set up as capable actually has depictions that make them seem capable.
There are many manga with amazing settings but poor descriptions.
It looks like someone who makes oversized rice balls at a rice ball shop.
I think the most unpleasant aspect of this protagonist is how they look down on their colleagues.
I don’t understand the deletion criteria.
Are you deleting them randomly?
It’s a story about someone who’s nothing but an incompetent worker, but is going to become a capable worker from now on, right?
Based on reading the first episode, it seems my best friend is a popular manga artist, but I wonder how the story will connect.
>>171
The best friend is a fiercely dedicated lesbian who has climbed to success because she wanted to work with the protagonist!
…How is it?
>>174
Yuri brain!!
>>178
B-but…!
A rave review…!
>>171
I really hate the very existence of editing, and I had a conflict with Ribbon because of it, which is probably why Ribbon got exiled.
>>171
The deputy editor is probably the former editor-in-charge.
>>171
It feels like I’m drawing commercially successful manga, but I’m not able to draw the manga I really want to.
Isn’t it a story about reviving the magazine with the responsibility of a close friend?
Surely this ribbon is also from when Yamanoi was aiming to be an editor since middle school, and while they might be saying it’s a nice story, inside they must be thinking, “Huh…!?”
I also enjoy the development of “I hated you.”
If there are too few expression patterns and it just looks like it’s drawn out of habit, it really loses its appeal on the page…
I’ve never seen someone who’s supposed to follow up after being harshly criticized suddenly stop halfway through.
I think you’re being seen as someone who can’t be helped even if told.
>>181
Not being a bad person and not being a capable person can coexist.
What you want to do is clear, but if you drag out the growth too long, this manga itself might get canceled, so be careful!
I wonder if they’re deleting it for a summary.
It’s hard to understand, so please mention specific names of other manga to explain it.
