~another late post.
I'll go watch ep6 tomorrow(:
Honestly speaking I
was never a fan of Shiratori Shun (Iguchi Yuuichi).
I find his arc pretty boring when I read it back then and I still have the same
view now that I've watched it. But despite how much I find Shiratori
uninteresting, his arc can be viewed in an inspirational way.
Shiratori's story is
very typical. Although it doesn't involve writing manga or drawing, I've
defintiely seen several stories with a similar context in TV dramas. What
differs Shiratori's story is its inspirational factor and good story telling
done by Ohba-sensei.
Not going through
the details of the episode, Shiratori's determination of being a mangaka is
very encouraging. I envy him for having the guts and strength to leave his
family, his home, just because his mother is against of what he wants to do.
What only made me disappointed in this story is how it actually resembles
Mashiro's story but Shiratori had it heavier (that very inconsiderate mother).
Now going to
Ashirogi's side of the episode, their problem regarding PCP not being allowed
to have an anime is disappointing. The only solution that Mashiro can possibly
think of right now is starting another series. BUT he has to take in
consideration that Takagi will be writing Rabuta
& Peace and he still can't draw fast enough to handle two series
weekly. Niizuma sure is amazing~
By the end of the
episode, Mashiro finally had an idea how to draw faster thanks to Shiratori and
his skill should be tested in upcoming Super Leaders Fest. Despite how we still
have in mind that Takagi will be writing for Rabuta
&Peace, when he said: if I wasn't
working on Rabuta & Peace, you wouldn't have objected, right? tells
us that somehow, he'll find a way not to write Rabuta
& Peace so that he can participate in the contest with Mashiro as
Ashirogi Mutou.
With how much I can
recall from the manga, I believe that Takagi's time with Shiratori will be
another struggle for Ashirogi Mutou. As for the contest, if I remember it
correctly, this will be the really fun battle of romance oneshots :3 Now I just
remembered Hiramaru's submission. LOL~
