 Help comic IP "break the circle"

  Manga-reformed dramas are not a new type of drama, and "The Wanderings of Sanmao" is an early comic drama.

Many popular dramas more than ten years ago also came from comic works, such as "Meteor Garden", "Prank Kiss", "Pink Girl", "Double Cannon" and so on.

In Europe, America, Japan and South Korea, manga drama is a very mature type of film and television creation, and a large number of popular dramas emerge every year.

In the past two years, Netflix's big hits "Hell's Messenger", "Zombie Campus" and "Alice in the Dead Country" are all comic dramas.

Manga adaptation is a major branch of the current film and television industry creation.

  In 2015, the martial arts animation "Qin Shi Mingyue" with the same name was broadcast, and the domestic comics quickly recovered.

In 2016, "Painting the Bad People in the Jianghu" achieved a good reputation and popularity, and then "Once upon a time there was a Lingjian Mountain", "Long Song Xing", "Take My Brother Away" and other manga dramas were popular, and the industry saw the comics. Great potential for change.

In 2020, the localized comic drama "Chess Soul" was even exported to Japan in reverse, showing that the level of domestic comic dramas has improved.

During this period, there were also a large number of small-cost comics that did not break the circle and failed to attract public attention.

  In the past two years, there have been more and more comic dramas. From the perspective of genres, they involve martial arts, fantasy, sci-fi, costumes, love, youth, etc. It can be seen that the adaptations of "out of the circle" dramas are either made in the style of star fan dramas Chengtian dramas, such as "Long Song Xing", either inject elements that are more in line with the current audience's aesthetics, such as "Chess Soul".

In fact, in order to get out of the comics drama, the work needs to be in line with the current audience's viewing interests and aesthetics. Domestic comic dramas rarely pay attention to the one-to-one restoration of the original comics.

  The rapid development of the domestic comics industry is related to the rapid development of the comics.

In recent years, the comic platform has become more and more powerful, the number of comic creators has gradually increased, the works have become more colorful, and the comic readers and two-dimensional groups have continued to grow at the same time.

Relevant industry reports show that as of 2020, the scale of domestic pan-secondary users is 420 million, and it is expected that the number of pan-secondary users will reach 500 million in 2023. The second-dimensional industry has entered an explosive period.

The two-dimensional culture is no longer a culture enjoyed by "otaku", but is accepted by more people.

The two-dimensional group is not more of teenagers, but concentrated in the young and middle-aged age. At present, some expressions with two-dimensional attributes are loved by more and more young people.

  With a huge base of two-dimensional groups and audiences, film and television comics will definitely be more and more favored by the film and television industry. Many platforms have special plans and projects for incubating comics.

Comics and dramas help comic IPs "break the circle", which is also a favorite of animation platforms and film and television companies. When comics "dimension walls" are out of the circle, they can interact and integrate with more industries such as games and derivatives, and gain more consumers.
