Employment experience

In domestic and foreign countries, the mention of the crayon Xiaoshin can be said to be a household name, but the majority of the people only know Xiaoshin and its author is called Usui Yitoa, and the contact with him is only confined to Xiaoshin. But most people only know that his author is Usui Yoshihito, and their contact with him is limited to Shin. In fact, everyone is covered by the light of the little new, but do not know itself Usui's best instead of four-format manga, you know, his debut work "bad department store" is a four-format manga.

Usui Yi Ren (usuiyoshito) is his real name, born in 1958 in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, after graduating from the Industrial High School hastily read half a year of technical school after dropping out, while working part-time to earn money to support their families, while insisting on drawing some comics. 1979, working in an advertising company until the cartoonist identity debut, 1985 in the weekly magazine "Manga ACTION" published "Bad Department Store Story". In 1985, he published "Bad Department Store Story" in the weekly magazine "Manga ACTION". The most famous one is of course "Crayon Shin-chan". 1985, when he was 27 years old, he made his debut with "Bad Department Store", which is different from other manga artists who work as an assistant first and then release their own works at a young age and start to become popular. Since he drew four-panel, which is something that is not good enough to be made into an anime, and secondly, it doesn't appeal to a wide range of audiences, barely until 1990, when he launched a new serial about the daily life of a horny little kid, serialized in Shuangye-sha's Adult Manga Magazine, which was made into an anime the next year, and to his surprise it was a hit, and it was Koshin Fever everywhere for a while.

While serializing Koshin, he also published some works, mainly four-panel works, using his own point of view and imagination, the ordinary life of the little by little with absurd and spoof method depicted, so that the most ordinary things and characters become extraordinary and have personality. And it puts the four frames to good use, often reading the first three formats is nothing, by the fourth frame you can only OTZ. The jumpy way of thinking about lines often strikes you dead when you least expect it, and all you can do is laugh maniacally. Usui's drawing style is spartan, with a lot of it consisting of just a few simple strokes, but four-frame is all about creativity, and sometimes the simplicity of the drawing style looks more charming instead, and for four-frame, that's more than enough. I've always felt that jokes in four-panel format would lose their original essence if they were expressed in words, and only by using four-panel comics can the scenes, words, and language work together so perfectly. Its comics can sometimes make you sweat like crazy, the original words can be said so, things can be done so, a mouthful of laughter out of the spray. Naturally, it's a bit monotonous, but he's strong in the sense that every time he does something new, even if the first three frames are the same, the fourth frame can still have different consequences.

"Fringe Zone"

If "Aziz" is purely a school four-panel manga that's cute as hell for being off-the-wall, this "Fringe Zone" is that inane spoof school four-panel that's full of sex and lust. From beginning to end, from students to teachers to parents, all the stories are centered around the theme of sex. Almost all of them are heavy on the dirty jokes, but they make you feel like cracking a smile and lay bare all the desires that are usually hidden in one's heart.

"Crayon Shin-chan"

Shin-chan is a young boy who is 5 years old and attending kindergarten. He is precocious at heart and enjoys admiring and hitting on beautiful women. Initially Koshin forms a three-person family with his father Hiroshi and mother Misae. With the subsequent addition of a stray dog, Kohaku, the days are frequent and trivial but not without warmth and emotion. As the story unfolds, a new member, his younger sister Aoi Nohara, is added. Author Yitoa Usui draws on stories from everyday life to narrate what happens to Koshin in his daily life.

The Crazy World

There is this group of people who don't play by the rules, don't play by the rules, not only do they talk extraordinarily poorly and spit on you until you die, but they also often engage in very bizarre and unorthodox behavior. I don't know whether to call them stupid or naive, let people laugh and cry when they are at ease, jeopardizing the stability of society but also add fun.

The New Aristocrats of the City

The chaotic metropolis has a wide variety of professions and people, and there are quite a number of uneasy guys among the ordinary office workers. There are those who play the company in the palm of their hands, there are those who use all kinds of mean tactics to make their subordinates work overtime, and there are also those who do not want the world to be in chaos and make trouble, this is a manga full of love and sincerity of the office workers!

Show Mom Tsukimi

Usui says his favorite work is this one, because it's portrayed according to his actual family's archetype, except for Tsukimi as a mom, which he doesn't dare to claim is from his wife's archetype, because she's lazy, slandering, greedy for money, greedy for food, greedy for small gains, and has not only a small chest and a bad figure but also a short temper, which means that if she were her wife, she would probably kneel on a washboard every day. I feel that Yuemei's character setting and Xiaoxin's character setting are the same. I feel that Yuemei's character setting and Xiao Xin's mother Mei Aoi is a bit like, only the mouth is more owed, more lazy, according to her husband's words, and Yuemei living together, do not worry about no new things to see.

Accidental death

About the disappearance

The author of "Crayon Shin-chan", Usui Yitoa, has been rumored to be missing, and his family has filed a search request with the police of Japan's _Tamagata Prefecture. The police have contacted police in various other prefectures and will mobilize police forces **** with them to search for Usui Yitoa. According to Taiwanese media reports, Usui Yitoa was lost on September 11, 2009, and his family reported to the police on September 12, 2009, noting that the well-known manga artist had gone missing.

According to Japanese reports, on the morning of Sept. 19, 2009, police found the body of a man in the mountains of Gunma, and judging from his clothes, it was Usui Yito, who had disappeared last week. The news led to a number of mourning posts in the Crayola bar. And it's NHK's entire 4 p.m. newscast, so it shouldn't be a spoof.

Japanese police found a man's body in the mountains of Gunma Prefecture on the morning of Sept. 19, 2009, and identified the body from his clothes as that of Usui Yuto, the author of "Crayon Shin-chan" who disappeared on Sept. 11, 2009, after going out hiking, according to Japanese media reports.

Manga artist Usui Yitoa, 51, who lived in Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture, told his family that he was going hiking in Gunma Prefecture on September 11, 2009, and that he would be back the same day, but he disappeared and lost contact with his family, who called the police on the 12th.

It is reported that Usui usually have a habit of one person mountaineering, this time Usui climbed the Gunma Prefecture mountain range runs through the northeastern part of Gunma Prefecture, which is the most famous is the Kamimo Sanzan Akagi mountain, Haruna mountain and Myoyoshi mountain. The highest peak is about 2,500 m. In March 2006, two men were rescued from a snow-covered mountain at an altitude of 1,974 m in a climbing accident in Gunma Prefecture. Rescuers have since found three more bodies of climbers in the central mountains of neighboring Nagano prefecture.

It was also learned that the manuscript for the "Crayon Shin-chan" cartoon, which was broadcast on Japan's TV Asahi, was archived only until November. Crayon Shinchan," a masterpiece of Usui Yitoa, is a cartoon featuring Shinnosuke Nohara, a kindergarten child in Kasukabe City, Saitama Prefecture, who expresses the social conditions and sorrows of the world through Shinchan's "childish talk". The manga was first serialized in August 1990 in Weekend Manga Action of Futaba, Japan, and has since been featured on television and on stage, enjoying an international reputation.

About the death

Usui Yoshito, who had traveled alone to Mount Arakabune in the Myogi Arakabune Sakyu Kogen National Park, located between Gunma and Nagano prefectures, was scheduled to return on Sept. 11, 2009, but did not show up on that day, and his cell phone went unanswered.

The following day, the family went to the ___Tamagata Prefectural Police Station to call for assistance, and the police sent out a search party to look for him. Although his cell phone did not appear to be turned on, based on the signal logs, the _Tama Prefectural Police confirmed that he was last seen in the vicinity of Karuizawa-cho, Nagano Prefecture. As a result, the Prefectural Police made a request for reinforcements to the police departments of both Nagano and Gunma Prefectures. In addition, according to his family, Usui Yuto often climbed mountains alone.

On the morning of Sept. 19, 2009, a 58-year-old male climber called the police to report that he had found an injured person on Mount Arakabune. Japanese police responded to the report and found the remains of a man at the scene, and the clothing and body shape similar to Usui Yito.On September 20, 2009, Japanese police transported the remains, which were broken, wearing a T-shirt with the upper half of the body still, the lower half of the body has disappeared. After the family identification, confirmed that the remains are Usui, due to no suicide note found, its belongings are intact, the police have ruled out suicide and the possibility of homicide, initially believed to be the mountain road is not fenced and lost their footing and fell off the cliff to death. 20 later in the evening time, by the coroner's investigation, Usui Yiren time of death for the afternoon of the 11th, the death of the cliff because of the loss of life.

Shuangyeisha, the publisher of the serial "Crayon Shin-chan," said Usui had already submitted his manuscript for November, and the October issue, which has already been published, has none other than Shin-chan on the cover. TV Asahi, which airs the Koshin anime every week, said it was not moving the program at the moment.

A page from the 49th volume of "Crayon Shinchan," which shows Shin with a heavy shadow on his face, saying, "I'm going to leave for a faraway place soon," and "I'm going to confess my love to Nanako before I die," once led to the media associating Usui's disappearance with the disappearance of Usui.

September 21, 2009, Shuangyeisha held a press conference, said the Japanese police found the camera left about 30 photos, the last of which was taken from the top of the cliff down, and therefore suspected that Usui "in the bottom of the photo down the bottom of the slippery soles of the feet," the death of a slip.

Most media outlets in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong have misquoted Japanese artist Seitaro Kuroda's photographs as those of Usui.

Confirmation of remains

Early in the morning of September 11, 2009, Usui Yito told his family, "I'm going to Mt. Arakabune for hiking today, and I'll be back in the evening," and left his residence in Kasukabe City, _Tamagata Prefecture.

At about 9:50 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2009, Usui Yitoi took a cab from Shimo-Nitta station on the Joshin Dentetsu line.

At about 10:30 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2009, Usui Yito entered Mount Arakabune and did not return that night.

Early in the morning of September 12, 2009, Usui Yito's wife filed a missing person's request with the Kasukabe Police Department in ___Tamagata Prefecture.

On September 16, 2009, the police in _Tama Prefecture announced to the media that the "whereabouts unknown" of Usui Yito, the author of "Crayon Shin-chan," had been reported by all major Japanese media outlets.

On the morning of September 19, 2009, a hiker found the body of a man on Mount Arakabune.

On the morning of Sept. 20, 2009, police began Usui Yuto's body collection.

Sept. 20, 2009, just after 3 p.m., the body of Usui Gito was transported by helicopter to the Shimo-Nitta Police Station.

At 4 p.m. on Sept. 20, 2009, the "examination" of the body began at the Shimo-Nita police station.

At 9:10 p.m. on Sept. 20, 2009, relatives finally confirmed that "this is the body of Usui Gito.

Suicide rumors

Would Usui have committed suicide? In the 49th episode of "Crayon Shinchan", which was published in Japan on August 10, 2009, there is a page in which Shinchan's face is heavily shadowed, and he says, "I'm going to leave for a faraway place soon," and "I'm going to confess my love to Nanako before I die. "The style of the song is a bit heavy compared to the previous nonsense and hilarity, and it seems to be prophesizing something. Character Death

In issue 47, there was actually an episode in which Matsusaka-sensei's boyfriend, Gyoda Tokuro, was killed in a terrorist bomb attack in South America; and when Tokuro's professor in South America came to Japan to pay his respects to Matsusaka-sensei, and in addition to blaming himself for inviting Tokuro to work in such a dangerous country, he also asked Matsusaka-sensei to never go along with him, and Matsusaka-sensei gave a look of strength and stated that Matsusaka-sensei gave a strong look and said that it was absolutely impossible to do such a thing. But when the professor left, Matsusaka-sensei took out whiskey from the nearby bushes, and while drinking it and shedding tears, he said:

"__郎さんもうすぐあなたの所へ行くからね"(De郎先生我马上就要到你那里行く)

This stirred up a great deal of controversy among readers, and it is not surprising why it went against the usual nature of the comedy.

Then Matsusaka-sensei gets into trouble while drunk, and is spotted by the head of the Miki Boxing Gym, who agrees to a boxing match and training, but in a "not even afraid to die" mood. In the match, he is repeatedly attacked head-on, and the situation is one-sided. At this time, Shin brings a letter from Tokoro to Matsusaka-sensei, and the kindergarten people arrive to discourage him, and the trainer reads the letter from the sidelines, and Matsusaka-mei is cheered up, and the match finally ends with Shin's yellow shout.

Causes of death

(1) Japanese police said the author of "Crayon Shin-chan" may have lost his footing and fallen off a cliff to his death

According to a report by the Mainichi Newspaper of 21st, 2009, the Japanese police transported the remains of Usui Yiren, the author of "Crayon Shin-chan," by helicopter and conducted an autopsy on 20th, 2009 in Arakune-yama, Japan, at the bowing rock. Preliminary results show that Usui Yiren died because "after a fall from a high place, resulting in a broken bone piercing the lungs and died". Japanese police said Usui may have fallen off the cliff accidentally.

Police in Gunma Prefecture, Japan, identified the body of a man found under the rocky bow of Mount Arakabune (elevation 1,423 meters), which cuts through the territory of Gunma and Nagano prefectures, as that of Gijin Usui, through a dental examination on 20, 2009, according to the report.

According to Gunma police, a male hiker found Usui's body on the morning of 19th, 2009 and called the police, who immediately dispatched a helicopter to the scene. Usui's body was on a cliff about 120 meters below the bow rock of Mount Arakabune, and his travel backpack and camera were scattered 50 meters away from the body. The backpack contained items such as a cell phone, wallet and clothes.

Police used a helicopter to hoist Mr. Usui's remains from the cliff and sent them to the Shimo-Nitta police station in Gunma Prefecture for an autopsy. An autopsy revealed that Mr. Usui's death was caused by "a broken bone that pierced his lung after falling from a height.

Gunma Prefectural Police said Mr. Usui may have accidentally fallen off the cliff because there was no fence on the top of the bow rock to prevent him from falling.

Usui's death hit no one harder than his family. Shuangye Publishing, which published Mr. Usui's manga, visited Mr. Usui's family, and the head of the publisher said, "I had a glimmer of hope that the police would search for him, but now I have to live with the worst possible outcome. I can't say anything else when I think of the grief of Mr. Usui's family. I pray for Mr. Usui's meditative blessings."

(2) Photos show Crayon Shin-chan author died when he lost his footing and fell off a cliff during a photo shoot

According to Japan's Sankei Shimbun, Shuangye Publishing Company, which publishes the serialized "Crayon Shin-chan" manga magazine, held a press conference at the Nippon Publishing Club in Shinjuku, Tokyo, on Nov. 21, where he accepted media interviews in lieu of the family of Usui Yitoa, saying that the photos of Usui's hike proved that he had lost his footing and fallen off a cliff.

Report

The report said that Nippon Futaba held a press conference on behalf of Usui's family. At the press conference, editorial director Akasaka Akio and deputy editorial director Suzuki Akio expressed their grief over Mr. Usui's accidental death in separate speeches.

Shuangye Shimba also disclosed that among Mr. Usui's belongings, it was found that 30 photographs taken by Usui during his hiking trip were still in his camera. The report said the last photo was of the view below the cliff, and it was conceivable that Mr. Usui was looking down from the top of the cliff when he accidentally lost his footing and fell off the cliff.

A representative of Japan's Futaba News Agency also read a letter from Usui's wife to the press conference. The letter read, "Thank you to manga fans for your concern. I have learned of your condolences and solidarity through Futaba. I also feel once again the great scope of influence of the manga 'Crayon Shinchan'. As a member of Usui's family, my hope for the future is to wait happily for the day to come when I meet my husband again."

Photo oops

Geto Usui, the famous Japanese cartoonist who created the character "Crayon Shin-chan," has been confirmed dead in a mountain climbing accident. The news has caused quite a stir since it was revealed by the media over the weekend. However, a netizen pointed out on his personal blog that most of the domestic media, including CCTV, had published photos of Usui that were not of Usui himself, but of Japanese artist Seitaro Kuroda by mistake.

Mistakenly planted photo of artist Seitaro Kuroda

The netizen pointed out in his blog that because of the high popularity of "Crayon Shin-chan," media on both sides of the Taiwan and mainland China borders were scrambling to report on the story, but in fact, the photo of this slightly chubby smiley face quoted in the media report was that of another artist, Seitaro Kuroda, and not of the low-profile Usui Yitoa, who is of course still alive. Since it has been more than a week since Usui's climbing accident, and since his death has been confirmed, this misquoted photo has also been exposed in Taiwan's TV and print media many times, and has been reported repeatedly as if Seitaro Kuroda were Usui. It has been misused by CCTV, major newspapers and TV stations, and many other media outlets.

Fans hope that the media will correct the mistake and not repeat it

The netizen said that Usui Yitoa himself still has black hair and is not a curly-haired person, so this mistake is really outrageous. For this kind of photo misuse of oolong phenomenon, the Japanese media after the netizen pointed out, has immediately corrected, but the domestic media at that time still did not react. Some fans hoped that the media would quickly correct the mistake and not make it again.

Funeral

According to the family's wishes, the funeral will be held in accordance with Christian customs, with no statue or altar. There will not even be signs to point attendees in the right direction, and the funeral site will not be marked in any way. According to the venue's staff, only about 30 or so relatives and relevant staff from the publishing house attended and spoke. A male staff member stood between the exit and the car during the funeral to protect the family and attendees. Mr. Usui's wife, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the hearse, had her face buried deep in a white hat. After the funeral, male staff members came back out and asked reporters to stop filming. According to sources, Usui's body was left here after leaving Gunma at 1:00 p.m. on the night of the 20th, and his wife and mother saw the body on the afternoon of the 21st. After the secret funeral, Shuangyeisha, the publisher of Crayon Shin-chan, said only that "the family is very sad". As for the farewell party, they said, "We will discuss whether to hold it or not next week, and the results will be published in the future."

With author gone, 'Crayon Shin-chan' will continue

With the departure of 'Crayon Shin-chan' manga author Yito Usui, whether the story of Shin-chan will be affected is the most important concern of many readers and viewers, and the head of the TV station broadcasting the animation of 'Crayon Shin-chan,' TV Asahi, said, "It will continue no matter what. " The production staff of "Crayon Shin-chan" animation also said, "Shin-chan will definitely not be terminated, and we cannot let the author down." According to industry insiders, because the character image of Crayon Shin-chan has been y rooted in people's hearts, the copyright agency will not easily give up this commercial brand, and despite the death of the original creator, new stories should continue to be born. "Bird animation" general manager Wang Yumin yesterday, said in an interview with reporters, "crayon little new" whether cartoon or animated cartoon let Chinese readers see a new style, especially the animated cartoon, although the production is extremely simple, but to win with the content, the picture is only a sketch, but the effect is very good, the production cost is very low, but commercially very successful. commercial success.

On Usui Yiren's passing, he believes that at least it will not affect the continuation of the birth of the "Crayon Shin-chan" cartoon, because in the Japanese market, where the commercialization of the brand is very mature, the cartoon authors usually cooperate and sign a contract with the copyright agency, and then the copyright company acts as the agent for the promotion and development of the cartoon image of Crayon Shin-chan, such as the export of the copyrights of animated cartoons to China, and so on, and up to now, the story of Crayon Shin-chan has been continued for many years. The story of Crayon Shin-chan has been continued for many years, the image of Shin-chan has been y rooted in people's mind, when people see his image, the image of that naughty kid will appear in their mind, the brand effect of Shin-chan has been formed, in this case, Shin-chan, as a mature commercial brand, won't be given up so easily, moreover, after Usui Yitoa's cartoon was adapted by the copyright agent company as an animated film, it has already been not very close to the cartoon's original author, with the cartoon class's copyright. It's not a big deal anymore, there's an animated cartoon crew to produce Little New's animated series, and the other spin-offs work the same way, so with the characters readily available, the crew readily available, and the brand matured, just go ahead and write new episodes, and you'll all continue to see new Crayon Shin-chan stories in the future, and Little New will surely continue.

When the author of Doraemon, Fujiko F Fujio (aged 62), died, even though the family wanted the anime to be terminated at the time, after persuasion by the TV station at the time, it was agreed that the producers would continue to work on the anime, and the Doraemon anime has continued to be shown to this day, so "Crayon Shin-chan" will continue in the same way.

Editor's note
