Rin picked up the printed paper curiously, glanced at the contents and laughed.
"Ah, isn't this an interesting hypothesis?"
Nanaya rolled his eyes at her and said, "What's so interesting about this? This is just nonsense! I really didn't intend to put Madoka Magica in the Moon World. Besides, isn't the heat death of the universe a very consensus hypothesis?"
The concept of the heat death of the universe has always existed, so it's not surprising that Mushroom and Urobuchi, who were good friends in their previous life, borrowed this concept together.
In fact, the two people had different purposes in borrowing the theory of heat death of the universe in "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" and "Madoka Magica" respectively.
In "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru", Mushroom is written in this way to highlight the danger of the Fifth Law and to set up a trap for the subsequent story.
As for Urobuchi, he simply borrowed the shell of the heat death setting of the universe.
In fact, the heat death of the universe can be changed to any other major global crisis.
However, the term "cosmic crisis" not only sounds more dramatic, but also makes the audience feel the "necessity" of QB doing so.
After all, nothing is more important to all life in the universe than the universe.
This is the core conflict and the essence of the entire story of "Madoka Magica" that Urobuchi describes - the conflict between the interests of the collective and the individual.
In fact, this is not the first time that Urobuchi has written about this topic. The previous FZ and the subsequent Godzilla trilogy both mentioned related content.
It can be said that this is a topic that Gen Urobuchi has always liked to explore.
QB can be said to be an extreme utilitarian, but in its definition, collective happiness is the continuation of the universe.
Even if the entire human race is sacrificed for this, it doesn't matter to QB.
After all, even if we compare the entire human race to the universe, it is just an insignificant existence.
What's more, QB only targeted the young girl.
Madoka is another representative of utilitarianism. You can say that Madoka has boundless love or that she is a saint.
Madoka herself is indeed a selfless person who puts the collective interest (all magical girls) above the individual (herself).
In contrast, Homura is the opposite of QB and Madoka.
She doesn't care about the heat death of the universe, nor does she want to care about the fate of other magical girls.
From the beginning, Homura Akemi's goal is clear but equally selfish—to save Madoka Kaname.
This is the core of the biggest conflict in the entire story of "Madoka Magica" and also the biggest highlight of the movie in terms of plot.
There has always been a discussion in European and American societies about how to balance collective interests against individual interests.
This is also why Nanaya chose FZ and "Madoka Magica" for filming.
Because it can resonate better with European and American audiences.
As for linking "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" with "Madoka Magica", or mixing the two stories together.
Nanaya had never thought of such a thing.
Or rather, I never thought of it at all.
After all, ever since the publication of "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru", Nanaya has been letting it fend for itself in the book market.
Wait until the fan base of "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" reaches a good number before adapting it into a film or TV series.
Anyway, the copyright of "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" has always been in his hands, so Nanaya is never in a hurry.
"No, it's really interesting."
Rin seemed to have thought of something, she snickered and looked at Shion.
"Letting Aozaki Aoko take the blame... this is really a genius idea."
[Danger! ]
Nanaya immediately felt Shion's creepy gaze.
At this time, Nanaya remembered that Shion had made a guest appearance as Aoko in "Tsukihime".
"Ahem! It's hard to bear such a big blame, so it must have nothing to do with Aoko."
Nanaya stood up and signaled to Shion to calm down.
"It's nothing, actually~" Shion said with a smile, "Isn't it normal for people to make mistakes when they are young?"
Shion said to Nanaya in a very kind tone: "So, after Aoko matured, she must have figured out a solution, right~~~"
Rin covered her mouth and laughed secretly. She thought she could ask her sister to persecute her harder next time when she wrote "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru 2".
Nanaya was sweating profusely: "It's just a fictional story, you don't need to take it so seriously, right?"
Shion didn't say anything, she still looked straight at Nanaya.
"Okay, I get it." Nanaya said with his head down, "I'll let Elle write "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru 2"."
Of course, Nanaya himself had no idea whether he would do so or not.
You know, when I traveled through time, a certain Brother Jun hadn't even managed to remake "Tsuki-hime".
[Forget it, just throw in a setting and let Elle work on it slowly. ]
Nanaya turned to Iioka and said, "This article probably hasn't spread yet, has it?"
"I'm sorry, it's spread."
Iioka said regretfully: "The discussion about this article on 2CH is already everywhere, and fans in North America have also translated and reposted it."
"At the same time, thanks to this article, the popularity of "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru" is also growing rapidly. It has now become one of the trending search terms on Google."
Ryan raised his eyebrows: "It sounds like this article has the effect of killing two birds with one stone."
"It can't be helped. After all, Fate and Madoka Magica are both very popular projects."
Rin swung her legs and said, "Even I want to see a crossover movie between Madoka and Fate."
Nanaya complained directly: "That's impossible. That would be too difficult."
The issue of combat power balance alone is enough to cause a lot of trouble.
Plus there's the possible conflict of actors.
Nanaya believes that if it is really filmed, it will only be a weird movie.
But that doesn't mean this article can't be used.
"Communicate with the author of this article in the name of Washimine Entertainment and ask him to cooperate with us in publicity."
Nanaya thought about it and then said.
"Do you want official recognition of this article?"
"No, of course the authorities won't admit it." Nanaya shook his finger. "If they admit it, the Moon World and Madoka Magica will be confused, which will be detrimental to our promotion to the general audience."
"I understand."
Iioka immediately understood what Nanaya meant.
In other words, the official neither confirmed nor denied it, allowing the topic to ferment.
As for communicating with the author of the article [Ryougi Ori is mine], it was naturally to prevent this guy from talking nonsense and cooperate with the publicity.
After all, as the original author of this article, he still has a certain influence on the Internet.
However, based on Nanaya's understanding of that guy, just giving him some limited edition peripheral products of "Madoka Magica" or Fate would be enough to make him shut up.
"But we can't continue to use this setting." Nanaya pointed at the printed paper and said, "If it's just Aoko messing around and the universe is doomed, it will easily affect the reputation of "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru".
Shion reminded solemnly: "After all, it's really hard for Aoko and Soujuurou to bear such a big blame."
"Yes." Nanaya nodded in agreement. "After connecting it to [Ryougi Ori is mine], you asked him to revise the article. The reason is to make his theory more perfect."
Nanaya still hopes to make money from "Mahou Tsukai no Yoru". If readers have a bad impression of the characters, it will affect many subsequent things.
"What about the modification direction?"
After a brief thought, Nanaya explained: "First, change the style of writing to be more humorous, not too serious. Then, about the content of QB..."
Nanaya told others his ideas for revising the article.
Simply put, the universe will experience heat death in the future.
In order to prevent heat death, QB is desperately doing pyramid selling on Earth.
Then, in order to save Soujuurou, Aoko used the fifth method to jump back and forth on the timeline.
The results of QB's pyramid scheme vanished in an instant.
In other words, the [Magic Circle - Moon World] universe will be destroyed one day.
QB's pyramid scheme was intended to delay the arrival of this day, but Aoko's actions accelerated the process.
From the perspective of a social animal, the area where QB is located has earned tens of thousands of dollars through pyramid selling.
As a result, Aoko burned all this family fortune and still owed several hundred million.
"That's what the title of the article says. For every Soujuurou saved, hundreds of blue-haired ones die."
Nanaya concluded: "So please cherish the blue fur. And remind everyone that there will be no killing if there is no buying and selling. Um...what's wrong with you?"
Noticing that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, Nanaya tilted his head curiously.
"That... Nanaya."
Rin asked with a twitch in her mouth: "I remember you said that Sayaka is your favorite character in Madoka Magica, right?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Nothing." Rin glanced at his head, "I just think the way you like it is really weird."
Ryan grabbed Nanaya's shoulders and said earnestly: "Nana, please don't like Artoria the way you like Sayaka Miki."
"Hey, who do you take me for?"
Nanaya complained unwillingly.
————————————————
The main reason why Nanaya put Sayaka in the article was because the other people were not very suitable.
After all, the article had been asked to be changed into a comedy, and the other five members of the group were not very suitable to appear on the stage.
On the contrary, Gakki, who seems a bit silly, fits the image of this comedy article perfectly.
On the other hand, "Madoka Magica" has also begun to charge forward in terms of box office data.
However, due to the lack of fan base, the box office performance of "Madoka Magica" at the midnight show did not exceed 10 million US dollars.
But as a movie that Washimine Entertainment has been promoting extensively for such a long time, audiences in various countries and regions around the world have naturally been looking forward to it for a long time.
As a result, "Puella Magi Madoka Magica" was highly anticipated by all walks of life and moviegoers, and it also took advantage of the momentum of earning 36 million US dollars on the first day of its release.
"Puella Magi" grossed $94 million in North America in its first weekend, and its global performance was a staggering $245 million.
