Chapter 278 (1/2)

The Acceptance of such a Setting…

Zhao Youyue did not know that the song existed within another world as well. It was the Mandarin version of the OP of “Bakus Kydai Let’s & Go!!”. Parallel universes were interesting.

She had not watched “Bakus Kydai Let’s & Go!!”. However, this did not stop her from enjoying “The 4WD God”.

“Bakus Kydai Let’s & Go!!” was led by a pair of deuteragonists, while “The 4WD God” was led by a protagonist Zhang Haolie. He was the combination of the deuteragonists in “Bakus Kydai Let’s & Go!!.” This would be a Pseudo-Invincible styled[1] anime.

Apparently, Zhang Haolie would never start a race smoothly. He would always fall behind at the start. However, just as Ultraman would only show his strength when his red light beeps, Zhang Haolie would only speed up during the later stages. This would be textbook shonen. The main character would always blow up with passion and claim victory with a bang.

In reality, it sounded ridiculous, being able to egg a mini 4WD on by shouting, or to release the ultimate skill ‘Victory Charge Tornado’ by hollering out the skill name. Yet, it worked, every single time.

Whenever Zhao Youyue saw the male protagonist’s mini 4WD releasing its ultimate skill, her mind would freeze—— how did this even work?

This was the bane of all human intelligence!

Yet, she had to admit that such a setting was very sensational. The male protagonist’s cries would reach her and boil her blood, and she would sincerely hope for him – who would be brimming with positive energy – to win the competition.

No wonder so many kids dug this anime. In fact, some works would not require any rationality at all. Once you look past the lack of logic, it did have its appeal. Such genre is similar to those ‘killer sports’ works. They took different approaches, but reaped equal results.

Zhao Youyue remembered once watching an anime that was related to spinning tops. Those spinning tops would be able to summon divine beasts and carry on battling on another level. Wasn’t that ridiculous? Not to the kids. They took it all in stride

How boring would it be, if mini 4WDs, tops, and yo-yos in anime obediently followed the rules of reality.

These anime have all been produced to sell the toys. They were all large-scale, feature-length advertisements.

Now that “The 4WD God” anime is being broadcasted to great effect, all mini 4WD models within the series are being highly demanded. Many kids believed that they would be just like the characters within the anime, releasing ‘ultimate skills’ and winning competitions.

Zhao Youyue’s purpose of creating a female character this time was not to obtain any sort of ability, but to obtain a ‘high popularity character card’ as a consumable.

Therefore, she did not need to apply a hack on herself, she was not here to create another Mary Sue character, such as the perfect goddess, ‘Chu Luoxun.’

It would be best to stick to the storyline and obtain a high popularity character card.

She chose to toss aside the idea of working for another iconic character. Disasters don’t happen in tales for kids.

Actually, something could be made out of it. “Eva” was a good example. After the heroine died, her spirit possessed the male protagonist’s racing car, becoming one with the machine. Even when the car runs out of battery, it would stir to live at the crucial moment, turning the tables upon the enemy, terrifying all who witness it!

Wouldn’t that be fantastic?

She could always work something out.

However, Zhao Youyue did not want to die anymore. This piece of work was meant for kids. Let’s spare them the grief and harshness of reality.
