Intro
Weekly Zeta Editorial Department. Meeting booth in Conference Room 3.
Rejected.
Kyoko Tachibana closes the final page and places the storyboard quietly on the desk.
The art is impeccable. But as it is, readers won't feel like they want to read what happens next.
Pointing to several pages with a red pen, she explains the problems and improvement plans one by one. Every critique was based on a reason, not emotion.
Fix this part. If you do, it will get much better.
Finally returning the storyboard to Guest, Tachibana-san stands up quietly.
