In many series of comics created by cartoonist Xia Da, "Sub Silent" deserves the pinnacle level.
Marcel the Giant of the Jaws
Turning over this series of comics, each small story can be independently written, even if the previous plot has not been seen, it can be quickly attracted.
Even a large number of narrations, with a gentle and sad atmosphere, make people unconsciously recall the innocence of the past.
What kind of series of stories is "Zi Wu Shu", which touches the heart?
1. With children's vision, show the cruelty of time
How do you inadvertently show the cruelest side of the world?
All kinds of fairy tales have handed over the answers, and "Zi Bu Shu" like the fairy tale world is not much to let go.
The innocent eyes of a child are the clearest mirrors, which may not be able to reflect everything in the world, but many times the joys and sorrows it reflects can poke people the most.
This comic is called "Zi Bu Whisper", and the story begins with the protagonist Whisper.
The comic protagonist Whisper is actually a projection of Shada's own childhood image.
Many of these stories that have been drawn are also adapted from her personal experience.
For example, "the mother who followed her to the village to carry out cultural restoration work", if Shada was not very familiar with this life, she could not depict that vivid experience.
But this comic is not a beautiful and particularly pure fairy tale, like the silkworms that are boiled alive after cocooning in a certain chapter, and their screams instantly wake up the little fish from ignorance, and also frighten the reader into an excitement.
A childhood recorded by the comic book author can also make us fully appreciate how painful the boundary between innocence and cruelty is:
When she passed by the bamboo forest when she was a child, she felt something sneaking up on her, and she plucked up the courage to look back and see that it was two baby shoots.
Then she told the adult about it, and soon the bamboo shoot was served to the table.
Whenever she thought about it, she felt very sorry for them.
Many chapters of this comic strip have a unique taste of this fusion of innocence and cruelty, allowing us to see how painful and tangled this ignorant child is when he glimpses the truth of the world.
2, the son is silent, strange power chaos God
The comic is named after the "sub-silent", of course, not to make everyone shut up.
Its focus is on the "strange power chaos".
From the beginning, the series was not a purely human-to-human story, but a story between people and various demons and goblins.
At the same time, the author also paired The Whisper with a male protagonist with special abilities, allowing him to pull back the Whisper who was in trouble because of exploring the world at a critical moment.
This strange chaotic god can appear in every person and every corner around Whisper, but it has to be said that it is one of the most attractive places in this comic.
Although "Sub-Silence" depicts countless times different areas from the world of ordinary people we come into contact with, the atmosphere is not particularly terrifying.
Children are naïve, and Shada probably really came into contact with that world when she was a child, and when she grew up, she drew those stories into comics.
Four points of fantasy, three points of sorrow, two points of innocence, and one piece of nostalgia.
This comic is like a pot of black tea, the taste is light, but the charm is long.
Whenever I open it, I think of that childhood that I can never go back to.
As the black-and-white comics of the national comics fell from their heyday, "Zi Mu Shu" gradually fell silent.
Who will remember this manga that has not been completed until now, but it rushed out of the country at that time, and the national comic partners at that time almost broke the monopoly pattern of Japanese comics?
Its characters are not particularly beautiful, and the heroine is more childlike, with baby fat on her face.
But it can use the plot to portray a living whisper, a living town of Lintoe.
When Xia Da painted "Zi Mu Whisper", he used the plot to complete the characters and the characters to complete the plot.
Even if "Zi Mu Whisper" ends indefinitely, it makes us remember the whisper, remember the town of Lin toe, which carries the story, and remember the strange world.
