Give Us Something Cheerful

"Seeing everyone so confident makes me feel relieved!"

"Alright, let's all cheer each other on from now on!"

After giving a word of encouragement, Ding Si got back into work mode.

Animation production is a long and patient process.

Especially when you encounter a boss like Ding Si who is highly capable and demanding...

The situation became even more difficult!

But everyone had gotten used to this atmosphere!

They'd feel a little out of sorts if they didn't get a scolding from Ding Si one day!

"Adjust the storyboard here!"

"Here, here! The proportions of this figure are obviously wrong. You guys are all veterans, how can you still make such a mistake!"

"Who told you to start coloring now? The characters over there haven't even been coordinated yet, and you're already starting to color them? What are you thinking?!"

When Ding Si is in work mode, he is completely different from Ding Si in his normal state!

Calling him a hot-tempered guy wouldn't be an exaggeration!

If his readers saw him like this!

Their eyes will probably pop out!

Is this still the Ding Si they know?

That's way too violent!

But there's nothing I can do...

This is what daily life is like in the animation department!

Efficiency and quality are both highly valued here!

Otherwise!

How do they get such high salaries?

This didn't come from the wind!

"The basic framework here is complete. Your task today is to fill in the details within this framework!"

After explaining some important points, Ding Si left!

He still has comics to finish!

Otherwise!

He shouldn't be this irritable!

While Ding Si was drawing comics!

Online...

Readers browsing World Novels...

Suddenly, we all received the same push notification at the same time!

[The author you follow, 'Unit 01', has updated with a new work. Come and check it out!]

Looking at this push notification...

Many netizens were stunned for a moment, then pinched themselves...

Hiss!

It hurts!

"I can't believe it! The creator of Unit 01 has released a new work!"

"I thought I was just seeing things, but after checking several times, it's definitely true!"

"The Unit 01-01 has been updated? Could it be that a sequel to Gundam is coming out?"

Netizens started exchanging ideas in the 'Gundam circle' on S Site!

"I don't know!"

"It's been a long time since his last update!"

"Let's go see what it is first!"

"That's right, let's see first!"

Then...

Many netizens went to the homepage of 'Unit 01', scrolled to the bottom, and found the new work of Unit 01!

"This..."

I originally thought it was a Gundam series!

But after actually seeing the new work!

Netizens were completely baffled!

"Your Lie in April? What kind of work is that? A sweet romance?"

"Is this really the work of the creator of Unit 01?"

"Why did he suddenly change careers? Wasn't he a science fiction writer?"

"What's that old thief up to now?"

"If you don't understand, just ask! Is Unit 01 related to that old thief in some way?"

People are discussing...

Some people are astonished!

But some people have already clicked on this work!

"Although I don't know why the author of Unit 01 suddenly changed his style, this familiar writing style is unmistakable; this is definitely a work written by Unit 01 himself!"

"Your Lie in April, emmm, just looking at this title gives me a bit of a bad feeling!"

"Just from the title, I feel like it's going to be a depressing work!"

"Do you want to take a look?"

Opening a work does not mean you are reading it!

Netizens are a bit conflicted!

They were deeply 'poisoned' by depressing works!

I'm terrified that I'll become depressed again!

You don't have to watch it!

But the 'curious bug' in my heart is always restless!

Such a conflicted feeling!

They've experienced a lot over the years!

Many netizens know what the likely outcome would be if they went to see it themselves!

But...

I just couldn't resist my curiosity!

"I'll only watch a little bit, and if I find anything wrong, I'll stop watching immediately!"

"I can control myself, yes, I can control myself!"

After preparing themselves mentally (self-comforting), netizens entered the world of "Your Lie in April"!

Netizens who are hoping to get away with it!

But they all forgot one thing!

For works with uncertain styles, or those that might go in a depressing direction, they should have tissues ready!

Whether it's "Your Lie in April" or the upcoming "Your Name"!

Let's get into the story!

When they saw that the female lead, Kaori, was seriously ill, many readers felt a pang of sadness!

"In the end, will it lead to healing and salvation, or to depression and sorrow?"

"It should be about healing and salvation, otherwise why point it out from the beginning? If it were truly meant to cause depression, it should have been hidden!"

"Pfft! The female lead is so outstanding when she meets the male lead that he's immediately mistaken for a hooligan?"

"Hahaha, this plot is hilarious! I laughed so hard my stomach hurt!"

When netizens saw that the female lead had a serious illness, they were worried that the plot might be too sad!

Result!

The rest of the story is surprisingly hilarious!

The netizens who watched it were laughing so hard they were in stitches!

But...

Just as netizens were thinking this, they gradually lowered their guard, but the plot suddenly took a big turn!

Spring is coming soon; the spring that brought us together is coming, and the spring without you is coming too!

"The last snow of spring, our last gathering. Meeting you was the happiest thing. Let's part ways here! Please move forward and welcome the cherry blossoms of April, but please don't forget me, my friend!"

"The words you spoke, one by one, fell like starlight. When I looked up at the night sky alone, I was afraid of being sucked into the bottomless darkness. The starry sky I looked up with Watari was ever-changing. The starry sky I looked up with Tsubaki was brilliant but also tinged with unease. What was the starry sky like when I looked up with you?"

"Your Lie in April" is not a long story!

Each chapter contains 5,000 words, so there are only 30 chapters!

For netizens who are used to reading 200,000 to 400,000 words a day, reading this kind of work won't take them more than a few days!

Can...

When netizens were watching it halfway through...

But they all unconsciously slowed down their reading speed!

They're not stupid; they can't possibly be unaware that something's wrong with this plot twist!

Where is the joy from just now?

This is clearly going to be depressing again!

"Ugh, Unit 01, you're copying that old fox now, starting to get depressing too! Aren't you afraid I'll unfollow you?!"

"I'm increasingly suspicious that this is the old thief's alternate account!"

"Can't you come up with something normal for people?!"

After realizing something was wrong with the plot!

Netizens are in an uproar!

People started complaining!

Yes!

Why do they always have to resort to these underhanded tactics!

Can't you come up with something more down-to-earth?

Why do they all have to create works that make people feel depressed?!

Wouldn't it be better to get some treatment?
