The scriptwriter Hill really recalled that when he was in the fifth grade of elementary school, he and his father, the well-known scriptwriter Takashi Takayama, said: “I also want to write a story.” So the father loaned his computer that he had eliminated. He indulged in it and wrote a story about “Junior Fighting to Save the World”. He showed it to his father with excitement. His father said, “Your story is not good, just like Akasaka!”
This “赤堀” refers to the high-ranking high-altitude gate of the hill, known as “Abe Wild Bridge Magic Street”, “Magic Knight BLADE”, “Sakura Wars” (series games & animation), and later Script writer and novelist in the novel world
So Hill really thinks about this, and I feel that I might be quite talented

The cartoonist Jiafei Gu said that young people who want to be cartoonists often feel tempted when they submit their manuscripts. If they want to make their works stand out, they will put in a lot of strange ideas. However, because Everyone thinks so, so in the end, there will be ironic results: the most common works become the most distinctive one

Writer Maeda said that entertainment-related work has a very wonderful phenomenon: if you don’t spend money yourself, your senses will be slow. Only those who will watch movies, only those who listen to the sample discs, and those who read only the books sent by others… As long as they have been a few years old, these people are all abolished. It is amazing

The cartoonist Nishikawa Shinji said that in this era, people can easily acquire a variety of knowledge through the Internet, but this is also a double-edged sword. The knowledge that others teach you will be like a curse, and will always entangle you, making you feel “not doing this,” which hinders your progress and makes you feel less fun. If you don’t find the problem yourself and worry about it, you get this knowledge, and that’s even more so
But on the other hand, like Nishikawa, it is almost impossible to learn from others. People who have repeatedly tried and tested their own growth, no matter how far they go, will always be uneasy: “I am doing this right? Is there still? Any other more appropriate approach?” This is also a curse that cannot be rid of

The contributor Hiroyuki Hirota said that when people encounter expressions that they hate and feel disgusting, they rarely think deeply about why they feel this way, but simply treat people who like their expressions as enemies. Reflexively blame them. And Hirota believes that only people who think of this as their own problems, rather than as other people’s problems or social problems, can progress
