"The Day of Becoming a God" is over, and the most anticipated part of October 2020 is over, but there is not much emotion in my heart, talk about my own experience.
The whole story of episodes 10-12 is simply separated from the previous plot, and the style is completely different, but how to say it, only watching episodes 11-12 alone is also the traditional sadistic tear-jerking project of the Key Society. I think that's a good ending.
But if this style starts from around episode 7, episodes 7-12 everyone is trying to figure out how to make Sato chick recover his memory, everyone uses various unique skills, it is best to be able to link up with the previous story, then the plot of "The Day of becoming a god" will be much better.
Overall, the story of "The Day of the Gods" is very fragmented, and the daily part and the back filming are used as a side line, and the work of Suzuki, which is secretly being carried out, is difficult to get up. At the end of the ending, Suzuki, an important character, was surprised that he did not have any role at all.
The opening is a good story, and the daily life in the middle is very Key Society, or very Ma Zhi Jun. When Ma Zhi zhun said that he wanted to "return to the original point", did he mean to return to his usual warm daily life? Or what is going on, I didn't feel it very clearly after reading it.
The most serious problem with "The Day of Becoming a God" is that the primary and secondary are reversed. 12 episodes of the story, everyone's daily life should not occupy the main process, I think 3-4 episodes should be closed, should always be written around the life of the chick, so that the doubts in everyone's heart have been around the chick to expand, the line of sight can also be more on the chick's body, 6-7 episodes can reveal the truth of the chick, and then let the chick be taken away to accept the inevitable operation, into a seriously ill state, and then sensationalize, into the climax, 11 episodes into the climax, 12 episodes at the end, such a structure, "The Day of Becoming a God" The story will look a lot better.
"The Day of Becoming a God" also has a very serious problem that was exposed in the early days.
In the early days, the male protagonist liked Iza and apricots, which was very fatal. Usually, the works of this age group positioning will pay more attention to the love affairs of male and female protagonists. However, throughout "The Day of Becoming a God", it is clear that the focus of the work is not on love, but in the early stage, it attracts the audience's feelings in this direction. Many friends said that the male protagonist's confession to the chick is not the expression of the feelings between men and women, but a relationship similar to bondage.
However, at the beginning of the plot, the audience focused their attention on whether Yang Tai could develop feelings smoothly with YiZa and Apricot, which was very fatal, and in the middle of the plot, the plot also gave a clear hint, and the chicks had a clear good feeling for Yang Tai, and this good feeling did not get Yang Tai's response, and the emotional rendering time was too little, so when they separated, they did not feel tears at all.
That is to say, Izu and Apricot are just an ordinary childhood playmate, and the feelings of the male protagonist are also inclined to the chicks, and before the 6 episodes, the main line of the chicks, Suzuki, etc. are quickly unfolded, rather than a slow and leisurely episode of daily life, I believe that this story can be told well. However, from the unfolding of the story, the daily rhythm, and the description of the characters, Ma zhi is accurate and has the potential of Jiang Lang's talent. The daily rhythm is well controlled, but it is still that taste, replaced by other Key Society works, and there is no sense of violation, is this the "original intention"? However, from a creative point of view, it is really not easy to do every work well, let alone original animation.
The lesson to be learned from the failure of "The Day of becoming a God" is that I think Maeda Always wants to do a 24-episode anime. The script of "Day of becoming a God", doing 24 episodes, I think the main line can be unfolded, but now, no, "Angel Beats" also has this problem, but this time, it still has not changed.
