Space.

This can be seen in the Anime and Manga Con which the magazine annually organizes. Primrose Animation Con, or simply PrimCon, as it was known by the majority of the public, was the biggest Anime and Manga Conference of the spring season.

For the past 30 years, PrimCon achieved a level of extreme influence in the industry. All animation studios wanted to promote their animes in it even if they wouldn't be released in the anime spring season.

(Anime Spring Season: April, May, June)

And it wasn't only the animation studios who fought for stands in the PrimCon space, publishing houses big and small all wanted to promote their works as well.

All in all, the latest animes, mangas, and light novels will surely appear at this conference.

Plus, the PrimCon attractions would receive the personal coverage of the Ink Tribune.

Live Shows, TV Programs, and Internet Celebrities, and others also covered the conference attractions.

Last year, PrimCon registered the record attendance public with almost 1 million visiting the grounds of the conference in the 5 days of the conference.

People from all over the world arrived in Sakura City to make their presence in this huge event. But even if someone didn't manage to buy a ticket to go to the conference, they still could watch from their own houses.

10 days before the PrimCon, the place that was the heart of the conference organization was filled with stressed and focused employees.

Ink Tribune Headquarters, Sakura City.

March 5th, Friday.

Josie Campbell worked as an Editor Chief in the New Releases Section of the magazine. And like everyone else in the company, she was also helping organize the PrimCon.

The PrimCon was created in the late 80s when the anime industry was starting its dominance, and the Ink Tribune started this tradition without any external help. This tradition extended to the present day, where the magazine could hire a third party to help withe organization, but they still preferred to place their own employees to take care of it. This strategy couldn't be said to be flawed as they indeed managed to achieve a high level of success with this method.

Josie was in her office working on some specifications about the convention when she heard someone knocking on her door.

"Come on in." Josie said without taking her eyes from the papers in front of her.

"Excuse me, boss." Josie's assistant said with a polite voice before entering.

"What's up, Anne?" Josie finally looked at her trusted assistant.

"You told me to inform you as soon I manage to obtain the latest news about the production of the Tokyo Studios." Anne started, "They had just released the trailer for their upcoming anime."

"Really?" Josie said with a curious expression.

Josie started noticing this particular animation studio when they called to reserve a medium stand in the convention space, as they called only a couple of months before the PrimCon, and there was only one space available that several companies wanted. It was then that the Tokyo Studios offered to pay double the normal amount to secure the medium space.

The people in charge didn't even hesitate to accept their offer.

Josie was one of the people in charge of organizing the medium spaces at the convention, and the space stand that the Tokyo Studios reserved was in her area of management.

When Josie heard of an unknown studio renting a medium space at the PrimCon, she became somewhat curious about it. She worked as the Chief Editor of the New Releases Section in the Ink Tribune, so she was fairly knowledgeable about the existing animation studios in the industry.

When she did her research about this studio, she found almost no news. The few things that she managed to find were that it was a newly founded studio and that they hired animators a few months ago. It was when she dug a bit deeper that she managed to find an extraordinary fact about this studio.

The studio wasn't based in Sakura City!

Josie was someone who knew the ins and outs of the industry, so she knew the amount of money that someone had to invest to circumvent the polarization of the animation industry

In Sakura City.

She was amazed to discover the rise of a studio with such a high amount of investment

Without any fuss.

Coincidentally, she worked in the section that reported new anime releases, so she kept her

Eye on the latest moves from this peculiar studio.

"Yes, I sent you the link to the video, boss." Anne replied.

"Thank you, Anne." Josie replied as she quickly opened her e-mail and clicked on the link

While Anne quietly left the office and closed the door quietly.

The link directed her to the Tokyo Studios Ruby Channel.

Without any suspense, the video started shortly after.

Josie's critical eyes watched the entirety of the 1:30 seconds of the trailer.

As someone who was paid to judge several newly released animes every anime season, Josie was a fairly critical person.

It was extremely difficult to impress her high standards, but when Josie finished watching the video she let out a mysterious smile, "Interesting."

Her eyes shone as she watched the video a second time, a third time, and several other times.

Her critical eyes noticed even the tiniest details, but even after watching so many times, she couldn't find a single mistake!

"A fluke or another skilled player entering the market?" Josie muttered as she lost herself between thoughts.
