CATDOLL: "Silver Keeper" will be broadcast in the second quarter of 2017!

After the official announcement of the animation and game adaptation of "Silver Gravekeeper" at the 2016 Industry Cooperation Conference, official information such as the production committee composed of powerful Japanese animation producers such as Okura Masahiko, Ando Takeru and Tanaka Yuichi, and that the popular voice actor Fukuyama Jun will be the voice of the male lead was released one by one, making the audience's expectations for the animated version of "Silver Gravekeeper" increasingly high.

"'When will the animation be broadcast?' 'When can the game be played?' These two questions are asked many times by readers every day," the author of "Silver Keeper" told the editor.

On May 1, 2016, the popularity of "Silver Gravekeeper", which had been serialized on Tencent Comics platform for nearly a year and a half, exceeded 500 million, and continued to maintain its position in the top five domestic comics. The excellent performance made this hot-blooded game battle theme comic qualified for animation and gamification. The number of 500 million just happened to coincide with the 500 million wealth unexpectedly obtained by the protagonist. The author, who usually does not use social software, wrote an article titled "May 1, 500 million, 500 million" on Weibo to commemorate the creation of the work. However, only 8 months later, in January 2017, the popularity of the comic had soared to 3.6 billion, and the number of collections reached 1.2 million.

The comic has been serialized to Episode 248, telling the following story:

The bizarre death of a game tycoon changed the fate of the poor boy Lu Shuiyin. In order to protect the girl he loved, he traveled through the virtual game, but inexplicably became the last gravekeeper in the game, and was forced to face various levels of challenges to fight against fate...

Compared to the eye-catching plot introduction, the world view of "Silver Gravekeeper" is more grand:

About 4 billion years ago, when the earth was still dead, Pangu, the first life form on earth, was born. Pangu's body was composed of the oldest and most powerful power in the universe - the cosmic essence, which could transform "thoughts" into "reality", that is, the power to create something out of nothing. Before his death, Pangu used his remaining power to create an alien space as proof of his existence, and the mausoleum was born. After a long and peaceful time, the creatures on earth continued to evolve until a few humans with special physiques found a way to reach this mausoleum.

Some humans attempt to steal the remaining divine power, while others realize that this will lead to the collapse of the world. The war between tomb robbers and tomb keepers has lasted for a thousand years, and the two also control completely different powers in this space. In order to seize the divine power, Shenling Technology Group has turned the entire tomb into a game...

The Last Gravekeeper: Lu Shuiyin

Popular character: Lantian Jade

Since it is a comic for boys with a passionate fighting theme, most of the readers of Gravekeeper are cute boys, and the mature plot style is also favored by adults.

In addition to the news of animation and game development, there was another impressive thing about "Silver Keeper" in 2016: in order to make the story more perfect, the creative team made major adjustments to the plot of the first 58 chapters of the comics, while ensuring that they were updated twice a week. To this end, the team spent a whole year finding time to redraw the first 58 chapters. The team did not take a normal vacation for a whole year.

Generally, the author will accumulate some content to fill in the gaps when the update is not possible. For readers, urging for updates is the norm: no matter how fast the update is, they will always urge for updates. Under the constant urging of readers, the "Silver Gravekeeper" team will find an opportunity to update as long as the drawing is finished. Gravekeeper comics had three large-scale updates in 2016, with more than a dozen chapters updated (the update volume for nearly two months). "Highly productive like a sow" is one of the most popular comments the author received this year.

Such efforts will always pay off. With its high-quality content and stable updates, "Silver Keeper" was deeply loved by readers in 2016 and achieved good results: one of the top ten most popular comics on Tencent in 2016; the second highest ranking in the overall list of the year; nearly 16,000 monthly votes in a single month; 160,000 complaints (complaints in the comics, top 10 of the year); the male and female protagonists were selected as the most popular CP of the year, etc.

The animated version that readers have been looking forward to finally has new news recently. According to industry insiders, the first season of the animation will be broadcast in the second quarter of 2017!

I finally waited for you, my "Silver Gravekeeper".
