Chapter 250 "Slam Dunk" Animation Stopped Broadcasting

"I heard that the animation of "Slam Dunk" is going to be discontinued."

"Eh? Why?"

"After all, the animation has caught up with the original."

On April 2000, 4, the much-loved cartoon "Slam Dunk" will go off the air.

Readers who are used to watching "Slam Dunk" every week feel very uncomfortable for a while.

"I catch up on Slam Dunk every Tuesday afternoon."

"It's so sad."

Even Yoshii Yamahisa, who hadn't contacted Higashi Higashi for a long time, came to the studio and asked about the situation of "Slam Dunk".

He was wearing a suit, and he was quite different from the Yoshii Yamahisa in Higashino Hibiki's impression.

Higashino replied: "Supervisor Inoue doesn't want to delay the progress of the animation with retrospectives, summaries, and self-created daily methods, so in the next week, "Slam Dunk" will indeed be suspended."

Speaking of this, Higashino was very moved. He did not expect that Kaede Inoue would be able to withstand the pressure of the upper management before the end of "Slam Dunk" and give "Slam Dunk" a relatively perfect production.

"It's reasonable," Yoshii-sanjiu scratched his head and sighed, "It's just a pity."

"Why do you suddenly think so?" Higashino asked with a smile, "When you were an assistant, you didn't show that you liked watching "Slam Dunk."

"It's different today." Yoshii Yamahisa stood up and looked at the studio in front of him strangely. "Now the space is much larger. The work table and chairs have been changed. Even the tools used are different. It’s no longer what it used to be.”

Higashino replied: "After all, it's just a consumable."

Omori wanted to point at himself, saying that he was the new assistant who came after Yoshii Sanhisa left, but he immediately shut his mouth tightly when he heard Higashihito's words "consumables".

Higashino continued to say to Yoshii Yamahisa: "Things can never stay at the time of parting forever, and even the memories in your mind will fade with time. So, don't worry too much."

Yoshii Yamahisa said with emotion, "But I always think of the years when I was an assistant. Although I was very busy at the beginning, I was very full."

That was his time from high school to college, the most brilliant age in his life.

"I often read the comics of "Slam Dunk", thinking that if I was still working as an assistant for you, Higashino-kun, would this background, that original manuscript, be drawn by me?"

"I've been watching the animation, and it seems to be back to the time when we got together."

Higashino patted him on the shoulder, "You guys really moved me."

It's been a while since we saw each other. The restrained Yoshii Yamahisa has become so enthusiastic.

After a while, Yoshii Sanjiu's mood stabilized, and he began to feel a little embarrassed.

This made Nakamori feel familiar, he stopped waving the g-pen, and took the rare initiative to chat with Yoshii Shanjiu.

The two of them talked for a long time.

"I don't have the idea of ​​serializing manga for the time being." Yoshii mentioned Nakamori's vision for the future, Nakamori said truthfully.

"That's great," Yoshii Yamahisa said of his current situation.

Children who want to inherit the family business will indeed be mentally exhausted in the face of people who are intriguing and intriguing.

No wonder he would recall the innocent years before.

Before parting, Yoshii Shanjiu said that he would be engaged to Takagi Kiko in a short time.

Higashino was very happy and blessed him.

……

A week later, it was mid-April.

The 126th episode of "Slam Dunk" was broadcast, and it was also the 30th episode of the "National Contest".

With great reluctance, many people sat in front of the TV and quietly bid farewell to this cartoon that had been on the air for two years and seven months.

"I don't know how many years it will be when "Slam Dunk" is broadcast next time." Kazuya Takasugi also chose to skip class. He came to the graduate student dormitory and watched TV quietly.

During this period, his mobile phone rang and he hung up.

"Really, I'm going to apologize to Yoshino-sensei Domoza later."

He swallowed his saliva, feeling uneasy.

But as the familiar bgm sounded on the TV, he entered the hot summer in northern Hunan again.

……

"Are we really going to lose?..."

Only 8 minutes and 40 seconds into the second half, Xiangbei fell behind by 23 points.

The main players in Xiangbei only had this sentence in their minds, and they were already panicking.

Yingmu Huadao was substituted, and Mu Mugongyan came on.

"Damn father... actually replaced me, a genius..."

"Is it really not possible?"

"Brother Glasses is about to retire, so I gave him one last chance to play."

Yingmu Huadao was thinking wildly in his mind, he was completely overwhelmed by the strength of the mountain king.

He didn't hear every word of coach Anxi.

After the timeout ended, the Sanwang players were full of fighting spirit, but the main players in Xiangbei were extremely embarrassed.

Coach Anzai asked Sakuragi to watch the game.

Sakuragi thought, Coach Anxi's purpose is to let him see this fiasco clearly, for the sake of blood shame in the future...

Yingmu Huadao became confused, he couldn't hear anything.

It wasn't until Coach Anxi scolded him that he was awakened.

When Hanamichi Sakuragi sat next to Coach Anzai, Coach Anzai said silently:
"Am I the only one who still believes... that we will win..."

This is the plot of the previous episodes of "Slam Dunk" animation. When Kazuya Takasugi also saw this, his depressed heart suddenly became enlightened.

"Xiangbei will lose", "the gap is too big", "there is no hope" and other discouraged thoughts, with the words of coach Dinghaishenzhen Anxi, they were swept away.

He got goosebumps, feeling the damn magic of Slam Dunk all over again.

"Don't give up hope until the last moment. Once you give up, the game will be over."

This is the classic line in "Slam Dunk" in 96. It is what coach Anzai said to Mitsui. Now coach Anzai still implements this idea and works hard for Xiangbei's victory.

"This is really cool!"

This is the core of "Slam Dunk".

……

Hanamichi Sakuragi was substituted. Coach Anzai's idea was to let him see the game clearly and understand his position.

Rukawa Kaede missed a shot, Sanno's power forward Masahiro Nobe grabbed the rebound, and Zebei Rongzhi made a quick layup.

So what Sakuragi has to do is grab a rebound!

If Hanamichi Sakuragi can grab the rebound, it will reduce the gap by four points.

With the blessing of Xiangbei's substitute, Xiangbei's hope, Sakuragi Flower Road made its debut again.

"If you give up, the game will be over...!"

Yingmu Huadao broke through the confusion, his heart is extremely firm, and he must concentrate on doing what he should do.

He bears the expectations of everyone, and has never been so needed and expected by everyone like now!
He must win this game!
He swore to the audience at the scene, "I must defeat the king of the mountain!"

"Slam Dunk" is completely ignited!
This is the plot of the last episode of "Slam Dunk". Sakuragi Hanamichi's inner monologue touched countless audiences and made countless people excited.

"That's right! Down with the king of the mountain!"

"Come on Xiangbei!"

They are looking forward to the arrival of the next episode.

……

So today, the last episode of "Slam Dunk" finally caught the audience's eyes.

They are eager to see Hanamichi Sakuragi's solo show after only playing basketball for four months!

Break the oppressive feeling that the king of the mountain has brought to them in the past month.

However, viewers who have not watched the comics of "Slam Dunk" saw that at the beginning of the animation, Hanamichi Sakuragi made a small move, grabbed the corner of Nobe's clothes, grabbed the rebound and scored a goal.

"What a person full of surprises! Hahaha!"

They thought it was the Sakuragi Flower Road that would explode, but they didn't expect it to be such a clever plot.

On the next rebound, Nobe wrapped his clothes tightly, causing Sakuragi Hanamichi to flash in front of him, successfully blocked, grabbed the rebound, and made a tip-up!
Sakuragi Flower Road showed its power.

The whole audience was cheering, and the voices of cheering for Xiangbei came one after another.

The audience watched this scene, but felt uncomfortable.

They still hope to see Yingmu Huadao show off his incomparable talent and win the victory for Xiangbei.

No one has discovered Yingmu Huadao's true talent.

When Akagi was shattered by Kawada, he forcibly shot randomly.

This shot is bound to miss.

Nobe was on the inside, had already taken off, and headed towards the iron basketball.

In Sakuragi Hanamichi's heart, everything is "I'll take care of it".

When he was behind the wild side and took off, in an unfavorable position, Yingmu Huadao immediately bounced up.

His unparalleled jumping ability, under the condition of full concentration, was finally brought into full play.

The height of his jump was more than 30 centimeters higher than that of Sanwang power forward Nobe, and he took the ball before he touched the ball.

While Nobe was still in astonishment, Hanamichi Yinggi immediately took off for the second time. Under the surprised eyes of the audience, Hanamichi Yinggi jumped into the air and took off the basketball!

"So high!"

"Compared to height, his speed..."

"Amazingly fast!"

The watching basketball players and coaches all opened their mouths in horror at this astonishing scene!

"This is it!"

At the same time, Coach Anxi resonated with the audience in front of the TV.

This is what they want to see!

Hanamichi Sakuragi, he finally became the rebounding king!

"Slam Dunk" has been serialized for more than four years. In the national competition, facing the top power forward, Hanamichi Sakuragi can also grab rebounds and control the game!
Many people clenched their fists, their faces were full of excitement, and they stared at the TV tightly, unwilling to give up for a moment.

But at this moment, the ending song of "Slam Dunk" sounded.

The animation is over.

The animation ended when Hanamichi Sakuragi became the hope of the team and started to turn the tables.

Many people are crazy!

Takasugi Kazuya also clenched the phone tightly, and turned off the phone in a sulking mood.

Hua Chao gasped for breath and wanted to hit someone.

"Why did it end here?"

"Ah, I'm going to die if I don't see the Slam Dunk animation."

"Is there any substitute?"

They were addicted to Slam Dunk.

But fortunately, there are still comics to follow.

On every Monday, "Slam Dunk" will be serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump".

So, when Higashino felt disappointed that the animation of "Slam Dunk" was over.

A large wave of traffic poured into jump one after another.

……

Two weeks later, Sasaki called.

Higashino was extremely surprised by what he said.

"Huh? "Slam Dunk" won No.198 with 1 votes, surpassing "Hunter x Hunter"."

In this issue of Jump, every viewer can vote for three favorite comics.

In addition to the fact that some only voted for one or two manga, in the 1000 reader questionnaires, it was a very scary and terrifying thing to be able to become No. 198 with a big gap of 1 votes.

This represents a one-of-a-kind achievement.

In the past, although Higashino always got the first side, the gap was in double digits. After all, there are too many excellent works in the current jump.

One point for this comic, and one point for that comic. In the end, the gap between everyone is not that big.

Higashihiro couldn't understand, "Where did this sudden number of votes come from?"

Sasaki replied: "Maybe it has something to do with the suspension of the "Slam Dunk" animation."

The animation of comics is to use animation to attract a wider audience to watch comics.

Also part of the ad.

The animation of "Slam Dunk" has been broadcast for more than two years, and it has made great contributions to the achievements of the comics.

Back then, "Yu Yu Hakusho" ranked among the top in ratings, but it didn't bring many readers to the comics.

Because there is a big gap between anime and manga.

Fu Jian also complained for a while.

"Slam Dunk" is different. Director Kaede Inoue has brought the manga to life.

He added animations to the original painting, making Hanamichi Sakuragi, Kaede Rukawa, and Shonhoku run and shoot.

So the audience is aligned with the reader's audience.

Now, when "Slam Dunk" is off the air, not only did it not lead to a decrease in the new readership, but it offered the last ripple.

"Because "Slam Dunk" is very interesting." Sasaki said: "Interesting works can attract readers."

What he means is that "Slam Dunk" can reach the current level because "Slam Dunk" is too good-looking.

Without animation, some viewers can only watch comics.

"This can be regarded as a surprise." Higashino said with a smile.

On jump, there are many comics, because of the end of the animation, the popularity has declined, and finally cut in half.

Here, he became a counterexample.

Sasaki said: "The new issue of "Slam Dunk" may also bring us good news."

Higashino nodded with a smile.

Afterwards, he called Director Inoue to thank him for his hard work.

Director Inoue said that during the period when "Slam Dunk" is off the air, he is not going to start a new job, but he wants to keep the current feeling and offer a salute to the final conclusion of "Slam Dunk".

"Thank you very much!" Higashino was very moved.

……

A month later, Takagi Kiko told Higashi Higashino the ratings of "Our Family".

This kind of small-cost animation with family-friendly themes is very popular in Japan, such as "Chibi Maruko", which has always been in the top three animation ratings.

So the results are very good. The animation production committee of "Our Family" revealed that there are plans to produce hundreds of episodes.

Therefore, the "Future Club", which has received a long-term meal ticket, will not worry about performance in a short period of time.
