Multi-Anime, I Stand at the Forefront of Popularity Supremacy

Could it be that everything is A-ha's scheme?

"You've experienced that hell, and you still dare to come here." Jingliu seemed to remember herself.

Before Sparkle could reply, Jingliu continued, "Do you want to learn it, my sword?"

"Is it possible?" Sparkle asked.

"My sword, whoever wants to learn, I will teach. But it seems you want more than just my sword."

"The sword, I want. And you, I want too," Sparkle said, raising her head. "I'm going to be a Dimensional Idol, you know."

"What remains here is but a wisp of thought. Since you desire it, then take it. Thus—"

At first, it was Jingliu speaking from across from her.

But then, the voice came from her own mouth.

"Two become one."

"—!!!"

It was as if she had woken from a nightmare.

Sparkle opened her eyes.

Nothing around her had changed. But the summoning scroll was now open on the ground, and on it was the name of a contractor—"Hanabi Hyuga."

Could she really summon Jingliu?

Sparkle put away the scroll and then tried to form hand seals.

"Summoning Jutsu!"

Instantly, the air turned icy.

Jingliu did not appear. Instead, behind Sparkle, an ice-formed humanoid resembling Jingliu appeared, holding an ice sword, standing behind her.

Though its form was ice-blue, it seemed to contain a boiling, blood-red light within.

"Jingliu's avatar? No, it's more like... a puppet?"

This humanoid floating behind her, like a stand-in, had no will of its own. It was more like a doll-like existence.

"A wild power is continuously influencing my body."

As if affected by this power, Sparkle's long black hair turned white.

Sparkle removed her eye patch.

With a wave of her hand, an ice mirror appeared before her. In the mirror, her own eyes had turned crimson.

"What a domineering power."

This power had directly transformed Sparkle from a black-haired beauty to a white-haired, red-eyed individual.

Only after dispelling the summoning did Sparkle return to her original appearance.

"In short, by converting Jingliu's power into 'summoning' power, it can be 'localized' reasonably. I see."

Summoning Jutsu could always summon many different things. If it were a summoning technique, it would truly have no sense of incongruity.

"With this summoned beast, it seems I won't have any problems even if I use Ice Style."

As long as she said it was the effect of a summoning technique, there would be no issue. Justifying a "summoned beast" was easier than justifying Ice Style. Although she couldn't reveal it to the audience yet, the subsequent arrangements would be simpler.

When the time came, she could also showcase the swordsmanship she learned from Jingliu.

"Hmm, let's just call it 'Snow Woman'."

Regardless, she needed to create a persona first.

Create a persona, and then it would be easier to reveal the truth later.

"The next resonance should allow me to receive guidance from Jingliu."

Wearing Jingliu's token for seven consecutive days would allow for one resonance. The next resonance would be in another seven days.

"Next, let me see, the filming of the OP and ED..."

The plot for episode five had concluded, so the OP and ED also needed to start filming, as the "Ninja Path" was about to transition from a live broadcast to an anime series.

"And then there's also the actor upgrades."

There was still a lot of work to do.

I'm currently filming, my eyes are blurring from looking at white stockings and ropes... .

Meow~ Please collect! This newbie is begging for collections, monthly passes, and recommendations~

Chapter 20: New products have appeared, how can we stand still?

Although she said there were still things to do, in reality, there was still a little bit left.

The filming of the OP and ED wasn't time yet; she had to wait for the notification.

As for actor upgrades, although she had gained 50,000 popularity points, even with the points she had saved, she was still a little short.

"What will the promotion test be?"

A mission in this world?

Or perhaps, entering a certain world with a different identity to complete a mission or something similar?

"Let's check the comments section first."

A qualified idol must first gauge the audience's reaction.

The Ninja Academy arc of Naruto is almost complete.

This arc didn't have many "changes" from me. For Sparkle, this was a complete failure. For the subsequent developments, Sparkle definitely doesn't plan to follow the original story step-by-step.

At the very least, Sparkle never liked the current ridiculous ninja world anyway. Everything here is distorted.

Before preparing the subsequent plot, I need to see the audience's feedback.

However, as soon as I logged in, Sparkle saw a trending post.

[Translation In, Get Beat Up]

Sparkle found it interesting and clicked on it.

At this moment, Sparkle realized that the production team had already started releasing character information, seemingly in preparation for the upcoming "Anime Series Version" with an OP and ED.

The OP of this post had taken Kakashi Hatake's name and criticized it.

The person had posted Kakashi's promotional image, specifically highlighting a screenshot of his name.

[The translation of "Hatake" is actually a mistranslation. The kana it corresponds to is not Hatake at all, but 'Hata', which is read as 'ta' and means dry field.]

[Kakashi's translation is also strange, it's translated directly. The Japanese name it corresponds to should be Kakashi. So, the more accurate translation of Kakashi Hatake's name is Hata Kakashi.]

[2nd Floor: If you say that, wouldn't translating Naruto Uzumaki as Uzumaki Naruto be more appropriate lololol]

[3rd Floor: Uchiha is also kana]

[4th Floor: Little-known fact, Hinata Hyuga's "Hinata" is also kana and can be translated as Hyuga. For example, the two translated versions of Hinata's apartment, Hinata House and Hyuga House, are actually the same place. Yes, that's right, Hinata Hyuga can actually be translated as Hyuga Hyuga…]

[5th Floor: LOL, I'm still Lisa Lisa.]

[6th Floor: I want to see JoJo comment on new anime, this ridiculous translation can be used.]

[7th Floor: Upstairs, JoJo's new anime comments are mainly for entertainment. For such a long hot-blooded manga, JoJo also has a hard time.]

Sparkle tilted her head.

Kakashi Hatake's surname corresponds to "畑" (Hata) in Japanese, meaning dry field, and Kakashi means scarecrow.

Therefore, Kakashi's full name means: Scarecrow in the Dry Field. In Japanese, its allegorical meaning is unspeakable loneliness and unknown suffering.

In a sense, Kakashi Hatake's name itself is a spoiler for Kakashi's story.

Similar mistranslations and puns are common in the Naruto World, even Naruto's name is a pun, and even "Obito" is the same kind of pun.

Sparkle didn't care much about these; she cared more about the audience. She wanted to see bullet comments in other languages, but it seemed she couldn't switch to other regions.

"Perhaps I can see them after I level up to Actor. I wonder if I can reach it before the Land of Waves arc."

It all depends on the OP filming later.

Sparkle continued reading.

Another trending post.

[The bell-grabbing plot is simply a perfect portrayal of 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors']

This OP didn't write a long essay, but after posting the title, people started commenting.

[2nd Floor: 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors' resulted in everyone dying, but here they passed the test smoothly. OP, don't exaggerate.]

[OP: It's true that 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors' resulted in everyone dying, but you need to understand the context of 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors'. In the story, 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors' was an attempt by Yanzi to divide the families of these three people, making them fight over two peaches. But in reality, after the three people died, it led to distrust of the ruler by the three families, causing them to unite instead. So, it was successful at the time, but in reality, it was a failed stratagem.]

[4th Floor: Kakashi gave two bells, but it united Team 7 to advance together. The effect is the same, but this is a positive application?]

[5th Floor: I get this. Three friends working together turned against each other because of two promotion spots. One of them felt guilty after his brother was passed over, so he resigned. Another also felt it was his fault and resigned. The last one felt he ruined everything, so he resigned too.]

[6th Floor: In that case, what is the allusion when Miss Sparkle makes the two of them look bad first, and then unites them herself?]

The netizens' conversations were quite interesting.

Sparkle kept reading, and many people were discussing the upcoming Anime Series version.

"Hmm, a character introduction post?"

Although most of them were netizens' posts, there were also official trending posts. The previous screenshot of Kakashi also came from here.

At the top was naturally the character introduction for Naruto Uzumaki.

[Naruto Uzumaki. Konoha Genin. A boy sealed with the Nine-Tails Demon Fox. The Number One Most Unpredictable Ninja. His goal is to surpass all Hokage.]

[Sasuke Uchiha. Konoha Genin. A boy from the Uchiha Clan. The top student with the highest overall scores. Carrying unknown darkness.]

And after the two protagonists, the third person was actually me.

[Hinata Sparkle. Konoha Genin. The younger sister of the Hyuga Twins. A genius who has "lost" her Byakugan. Known for her proficiency in "Genjutsu".]

Sparkle's image was of her in the first episode, wearing a kimono and holding a red umbrella, but the kimono Sparkle was wearing was the upgraded one with her pattern, not the style from the first episode.

"They actually put quotation marks around 'lost'? And the latter half of the sentence is also quoted? Isn't that a spoiler?"

Sparkle tilted her head.

Fortunately, this was just an introduction and didn't reveal her mastery of Fire Style, Ice Style, and swordsmanship.

Sparkle took a look. Although some of the subsequent replies also found it strange, it hadn't sparked any discussion.

"Since they didn't find out, I'll just surprise them later."

After successfully joining Team 7, Sparkle had become one of the "main trio," even appearing in the official promotion.

"But this official promotion seems to vaguely treat me as one of the three main characters. Yet, my role in the plot is clearly that of a minor supporting role?"

If someone were to investigate, they'd find that Sparkle's screen time was actually very limited.

Most of her scenes were either due to Sparkle using a camera card or forcefully inserting herself into scenes. A small portion seemed to be dramatic and highlight moments that the anime series also retained, but overall, it was quite limited.

[Dimensional Popularity Stage is responsible for script filming. For non-protagonists, promotional activities are outsourced to locals.]

[Upon reaching a certain level, promotional strategies can be planned through Popularity Points, or related rewards can be obtained through the Popularity Point shop or lucky draws.]

The Dimensional Popularity Stage kindly provided the answer.

"This is quite interesting,"

Sparkle mused.

She was a supporting character, but the audience didn't know that!

Perhaps she could play an even bigger game, shaping herself into the true protagonist of the hidden storyline?

"Oh, the Popularity Point shop can be refreshed. It's manual, too."

The Popularity Point shop, which Sparkle had previously bought out, had been refreshed.

After Sparkle clicked refresh, three items appeared before her.
