[Medalist] The title of the Ice Flame Beast is so lame that the thread is in an uproar, lol.

Otaku Review Image

**Characters extracted from the image:** Beast of Fire and Ice Exhibition The Beast of Fire and Ice The title “Beast of Fire and Ice” was tentatively set with the editor before confirming the title “Metalist,” but it was rejected by the editor-in-chief who said, “That’s super lame!” PEKINUMA

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:25Yeahx26

That’s so lame.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:26Yeahx10

It’s an extra edition, so it’s fine, but the story is too haphazard…

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:29Yeahx7

>>2A few pages as a bonus in a paperback would have a nice vibe.
The number of pages is unnecessarily excessive, isn’t it, Hyouen…

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:18

>>4It’s a bit tough when they do this with the volumes when I want to read the main story.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:26Yeahx21

Is it a fantasy work from another world?

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:35Yeahx1

>>3It looks like you’re wearing armor even more…

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:29Yeahx1

Since the beast of ice and flame didn’t work out, I suggested Medalist!! as the next option, and it came back as Medalist, which was hilarious.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:30Yeahx6

>>5The basics are too passionate.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:45Yeahx2

>>5I think it’s fitting for Inori-san’s nickname.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:30Yeahx7

It’s either Freyzard or the fierce light Gundam, isn’t it?

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:31

It looks boring.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:32

It doesn’t really feel like a great title, even for a medalist.
Of course, it’s not that it’s a bad thing, but…

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:32Yeahx1

Medalist!! I think it’s not that bad because you’ve considered it to the extent of likening the blades of the skates to that!!

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:32Yeahx1

The title “Medalist” has a somewhat poor searchability for a work from the Reiwa era, doesn’t it?
It became that way because I hit it, but…

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:34

Considering that it’s difficult to come up with titles for stories in a serialized format,
In any case, attracting attention is prioritized.
The ice flame and the medalists are both… well, it’s hard to say.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:34

I think being a medalist is good.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:35Yeahx3

When I hear “medalist,” it doesn’t connect to figure skating for me.
Of course, there is a certain power in the picture, but…

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:35

It’s a bit embarrassing to buy the manga “Beast of Ice and Flame.”

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:36Yeahx2

The only highlight is Hikari-chan being completely taken aback by Inori-san passionately talking about earthworms.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:36

Is the thread image some kind of self-deprecating gag?

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:36Yeahx3

Originally, it was evident from the editorial department’s expectations, as there were awards won and manuscripts circulated for the Shiki Prize even before the serialization began.
It seems that they intended to solve the poor searchability with a strong style that raises awareness through the power of the editorial team.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:37

Otherworldly Skating Fantasy or something like that.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:37Yeahx2

It would be better if you just put the character settings instead of using this kind of page…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:39Yeahx5

>>22I don’t see the point when it’s said by someone who hasn’t even bought the paperback.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:51

>>26On the back cover, there’s an extra comic, and there’s also character settings included in the manga itself.
It’s too obvious that you haven’t bought the paperback…

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:38

I like the title “Medalist” because it’s simple.
From the perspective of the one drawing, I wonder if something simple like that puts pressure on them.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:38Yeahx2

The title “Beast of Ice and Flame” is quite a questionable title for a medalist, but it is indeed impressive.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:38

Medalist – Beast of Ice and Flame

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:39Yeahx1

If you are going to complain, you don’t have to buy it, and if you don’t buy it, don’t complain.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:41

Yuri is popular too, but it’s not a title that you immediately recognize as skating…
Blizzard Axel is easy to understand, but it shouldn’t have been that popular…

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:43

Once the serialization is decided, I will change the title!
I don’t want that child to regret when the book is displayed in stores and have people point and say, “What a tacky title!”

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:45Yeahx2

Probably a not very interesting battle manga that follows the trend of Demon Slayer.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:47

I want you to post the extra 4-panel comic from “The Beast of Ice and Flame.”
I was a little disappointed that it wasn’t a 4-panel comic but just the thread image.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:47

As for Inori’s inner self, or rather… I kind of understand it well enough…
On the ice, she’s quite the berserker, Inori-san…

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:48

Honestly, I think “Medalist” is quite something…

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:51

When you pursue searchability and clarity, the format of just saying the content as is becomes too strong.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:52

At least like a beast on the ice…

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:15

>>37But life is something to be burned.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:52Yeahx1

The special edition from last month was great.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:53Yeahx1

Is it actually a problem for medalists to be associated with other sports?

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:54Yeahx4

Rather than doing Ice Flame twice
It would be nice if they could explore the side characters who don’t interact much with Inori and the others’ stories, yeah…

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:54Yeahx2

This feels like a beast of ice and flame in the final act… I think it would be funny if a mob character said that.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:56

There are relatively few student athletes who are fully aiming for Olympic gold medals, so it might not be such a bad thing for medalists after all.
Oh, but did it start from 18?

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:57

Well, right now Inori is perfectly suited to the title of Beast of Ice and Flame.

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:57

It’s clear that it’s evolved to be more recognizable as a sport, but I still have no idea what sport it is, even with the medalist…

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:22

>>44At first, I thought it was a title like “Ganbarist Shun.”

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)17:59

I think it’s amazing that the title “Medalist” doesn’t convey what sport the work is about at all.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:00

Since they said officially to use hashtags for easier searching with “Manga Medalist,” I hope you can be lenient about that.
Why did I choose this title?

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:03

If you mention a medalist on the silver rink, it’s easy to associate that with figure skating, but…
I think that, in terms of afternoon color, the title is intentionally one that makes it difficult to imagine the content just from the title.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:04Yeahx2

It’s a commonly used word, so I guess it has a nice feel to it, like “medalist”… but I think the searchability and other aspects are pretty terrible.

Foreign works often have super simple titles, but how do they manage to catch people’s attention?

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:14

I just set the goal to be a medal in terms of the conversation.
For Inori and the teacher, it’s completely different from the initial impulse, so they can’t even express the content.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:18

>>51But I love skating and I can’t live anywhere else, so wanting to become a gold medalist has been my motivation from the very beginning.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:17

I think there are plenty of manga where you can tell what it’s about just by the title, so that’s fine. I’ll refrain from commenting on “The Beast of Ice Flame.”

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:17Yeahx2

The author really lacks naming sense, not just with character names but in general.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:21

>>54I feel that the name “Yodaka Jun” is really cool.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:25

>>58Wasn’t “yotaka” a slang term for a prostitute?

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:27

>>65What I sacrificed to become a gold medalist…

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:29Yeahx2

>>65If it’s a female character, the fan art is so bad that it seems buried.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:34

>>65When I look at the story, there are characters like Professor Ori and I wonder if it’s inspired by Kenji Miyazawa’s “The Nightingale Star.”

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:27Yeahx2

>>58Isn’t it cool, but isn’t it a character from the Beast of Ice Flame instead of a medalist?

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:19Yeahx1

I understand that since I’m a person who touched on it a bit late, the title “Medalist” might not be immediately clear in terms of its content and genre. While it can visually suggest something related to skating, there are cases nowadays where first impressions can be misleading.
In that regard, the title “Beast of Ice and Flame” is amazing; if you imagine it featured on the main visual, you wouldn’t have a clue what kind of manga it is. I definitely thought it was some sort of special isekai work.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:22Yeahx1

I think the name “Kessoku Inori” is easy to remember and has a nice sound to it, making it a great name.
As for Dr. Shi… um…

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:23Yeahx2

>>59It’s interesting that when you lay down Sensei, she becomes loli…

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:22

“In other words, a beast of ice and flame.”

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:24

Worm

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:24

You suddenly say something that sounds like it’s wrapped in aluminum foil, don’t you?

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:27

But after it becomes a hit, a title with a simple phrase feels more significant or cool.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:28

“Night Hawk,” right?

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:29

Medalists are fine, I guess.
It’s like a major league sort of thing.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:29

The content is persuasive, so “medalist” is a universally accepted term that carries power as a title, right?
I’m glad it’s not a beast of ice and flame.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:30

Inori-san is going to the Olympics.
The skating rink is filled with stuffed worms.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:30

(Absolutely, it can be placed alongside Avan-sensei’s spin-off…)

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:33Yeahx3

It’s not that Inori-san wants to skate for fun rather than focusing on the results.
It’s a good title that includes being seriously obsessed with winning medals.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:35

It feels more like the name of a short story than the title of a work: “Ice Flame Beast.”

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:37

There may be parts where the story is led by the title you gave it.
This story has no way out other than going to the Olympics.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:39

It seems like just having fun sliding turns into something like “I’ll kill everyone with my performance!” before I know it…

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:42

>>79In other words… a beast of ice and flame!

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:41

Because there are too many years until the age of competing in the Olympics in the story’s timeline, I can’t take it easy.
I think there is definitely an aspect where we have to keep time skipping repeatedly as a result.

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:41

What is the flame?

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:42

“Maybe be a little gentle with Main-chan…”

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:42

The day may come when the Beast of Ice and Flame is quietly revealed in the subtitle.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:43

I think I could draw about one episode’s worth with the effort spent on a bonus comic.
It should be kept to about four panels.

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:43

Inori is a beast aiming to win since the first tournament.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:44

The character naming is not so much uncool as it is unmemorable.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/07(Sat)18:45

I wonder what kind of Olympics Inori-san’s Olympics will be.
Los Angeles?
