the art is genuinly insane

A slow training arc. Miyama now can draw left handed! He's a pure genius, and just leveled up and on his way to beat Hanagami. The new character, Yamadano adds a really interesting mix. A controversial character, her wild ideas and confident behavior coupled with her sharp (villainous) mind makes her the perfect mentor for someone who's already level 10000. The 2 side stories in the end is nice too, really makes you empathize with rookie mangaka and editors in real life, they sure have it hard!

Favorite quotes:
- Can whales fly in the sky? Can tigers hunt in the sea?
- Dont fall into mediocrity in the pursuit of novelty.
- Our triumph today was only possible with your help. May you continue to support the rookies who admire you, the artists who rely on you, and the boss who treasures you. [Said to someone who was thinking of quitting the team, but now changed his mind, lol!]
- Fundamentally speaking, people improve at drawing through their Eyes before their Hands...So you practice until your eyes are satisfied, and that's when your hands catch up. After some time, your eyes begin to grow even sharper... that's how artists hone their craft. [This is actually true in real life too! I never noticed it till now!]
- I'll treat this as an honor, not as pressure, but as fuel to keep pushing forward
