[The third drama in the story is complete, and the main story is finished.]
[Please add my upcoming novel, The Avenging Beauty, to your collection. The text before this is the blurb for this novel. Also, the cover is from BS. Thanks to the kind reader who sent it!]
Mo Li, a genius animator, transmigrates to an interstellar era where the entertainment industry is flourishing. She discovers that the animation industry here is still in its infancy.
Powerful investors are eyeing this unexplored field. Everyone wants to be the first to seize the opportunity and monopolize the market for decades to come.
As it happens, she has become the behind-the-scenes powerhouse whose former employer stole the credit for her work.
If things follow their usual course, her old company will steal the copyright to her work and use her name to suppress newcomers. They will make a fortune, then blame her for holding the animation industry back.
Mo Li, who once stood at the pinnacle of Earth's animation industry: ...
Before you assign me the role of a disposable extra, did anyone bother to ask what I think?
Half a month later, at the Interstellar Youth Animation Contest,
an animation called Magical Girl Polka broke through the competition, defeating the mainstream mecha animations released alongside it to win first place in the youth category.
Her peers weren't impressed. So what if it's a girls' adventure story? Anyone could make that.
It wasn't until posters of the magical girl went up at their company entrances, and audiences started walking past clutching their own Polka plushies, that they realized Black Cat was no ordinary person.
She was out to kick them all out of the interstellar animation industry.
Star Alliance Animation Regulatory Bureau: Well, we originally wanted to ban Black Cat. But just a few days after we did, the Star Alliance President sent us a message saying his son couldn't sleep without Black Cat's animations.
Star Alliance Noble Academy: Well, we originally wanted to sue Black Cat. But before the court could rule, the princess who attends our school kept demanding that we drop the case, and even gave Black Cat an entire planet.
As for the former employer who had stolen Mo Li's work, they were now weeping bitterly, offering her the whole company just to get Black Cat to come back.
Mo Li: Begging for mercy now? Sorry, you're too late.

[Upcoming novel blurb]
Every player has heard of Sylvia. She is beautiful and powerful, and she's a saintly savior. She helps anyone who asks for help and gets them safely out of the infinite-flow world.
Until one day, her teammates announced that she was dead: Sylvia had willingly sacrificed her life to protect the person she loved.
The players believed them. They designated July 5 as a day of mourning to commemorate the saint's kindness, and donated their points to Sylvia's organization in hopes of receiving its protection.
*
Three years later, a mysterious young woman trampled the infinite-flow world underfoot.
She was beautiful and powerful, but like the Grim Reaper. Anyone who begged her for mercy was mercilessly put to death, their soul banished to the gaps between time and space.
She conquered every game, made her way to her former teammates, and raised her scythe.
"Betraying me comes at a price," she said with a smile. "Now, are you ready to pay it?"
[Reading notes]
Romance: The female lead has no romantic experience, while the male lead does. The male lead is not the lover mentioned in the blurb.
Plot: The male lead is strong, but the female lead is stronger. She stands above everyone else. At its heart, this is a revenge power fantasy about a saintly heroine who is betrayed and then slaughters her way through an infinite-flow world.
Personal preferences: There are otome-game elements. Every supporting character, male or female, has unrequited feelings for the heroine, including some devoted admirers.
Theme: You have to rely on yourself
