The fifth season of "Bad Guys Who Paint rivers and lakes" is being broadcast, and the animation team technology seems to be more mature, whether it is characters or battle scenes are more exquisitely produced, only two episodes have won more than 50 million views, which is definitely the top of the national comic in January.
While Bad Guy Season 5 looks great, it still has some problems. In terms of plot, we don't need to worry, after the polishing of the previous seasons, the plot of bad people should not suddenly collapse, and the problem to be said here is the analysis from the perspective of the anime itself.
If these problems are not explained or addressed, perhaps the fifth season will be the final season of bad people.
01 Anime audiences are not picked up
I don't know if you have found that the anime chasing "Bad Guys Who Paint rivers and lakes" is basically old fans, and this anime actually lacks the attraction of new fans. The younger brother has vigorously watched bad people around Amway friends, but the answer is almost the same, that is, they have been out of the fifth season, and they have to watch from the first season, which is good for the post-00s, but it is already a luxury for the post-90s.
Bad guys from the first season to the fifth season of the plot is very coherent, if you are not from the beginning of the pursuit of bad people, directly from the fifth season to see, you may not know who Li Siyuan is, and even mistakenly think that the new character Luo Xiaobei in the fifth season is the male protagonist of this work. But if you start watching bad guys from the first season, there's another problem, which is that due to the tragic removal of the shelves that year, bad guys deleted a lot of content and wonderful footage in the first two seasons, which is very unfriendly to the new bad guy audience.
An anime can come out to the fifth season, which is enough to prove its excellence, but if such excellence cannot be known to more people, there is still a problem of self-imposed, and the really excellent national comics need to go out of the circle, and the bad people who have a historical background of the anime should have this ability. Can't say that bad people haven't done it, can only say that it hasn't done enough, and I personally think that the phenomenon of new and old audiences in anime is the biggest problem of bad people in this anime.
How to attract more new audiences, and even achieve the same attention as the phenomenon-level national comic movies such as "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending" and "The Return of the Great Sage" is a problem that the animation team needs to consider, and will a bad person movie be a good choice?
02The initially set combat power system was directly abandoned
I don't know if you remember the combat system from the first season to the third season? Small star position, big star position, small heaven position, big heaven position, etc., this combat power system appeared from the beginning, but since the female emperor was dropped by the real Qi King Li Maozhen in a second, this combat power system seems to have been mentioned again. As a master of the Great Heavenly Position, the female emperor is not the enemy of Li Maozhen, who has been in Liaojiang for more than ten years, this situation is really a bit unreasonable, is the animation team also aware of this, so simply gave up the combat strength system?
But if there is no combat power system constraint, then how should those masters among the bad people be divided? For example, Li Siyuan's subordinate Li Cunli, such a strong opponent, is Li Xingyun able to defeat? If according to the previous combat strength system, Li Xingyun is now at least a great heavenly position, then what level is Li Cunli? You see, if there is no combat power system, then all this is a bit unclear.
Although the bad people now have more and more meanings from the rivers and lakes to the temple, but in the end the main scene is still fighting between people, since there is a battle, it needs to have a standard, so the combat strength system has an important significance.
Here are a few simple examples:
The fire's national comics "Douluo Continent" and "Fighting Broken Sky" have a strict combat power system, although these two and bad people belong to different types, but they have the same destination.
Another example is the national comic "Under One Man", although there is no obvious difference between the skills of each inhuman, they have a ceiling standard, that is, eight miracles.
There is also the TV series "Sword Line in the Snow" some time ago, a pin master also has the distinction of King Kong, Finger Xuan, Celestial Elephant, and Land Immortal, and the design of these combat power systems is definitely not for no reason.
Therefore, I personally feel that either I will not design the combat power system, or I will continue to continue.
03 The role is changed, and the protagonist becomes a supporting role
In the third season of bad guys, the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang laid out the chess game for Li Xingyun, and in the fifth season, Li Xingyun finally became the person who played chess, which led to the fact that in the fifth season, whether it was in the OP or in the main film, Old Li did not show his face, which made many viewers who liked Li Xingyun for a long time particularly uncomfortable. One thing that is particularly attractive about bad people is that the role is very plump, and Lao Li's handsome man is the highlight of it.
And Ji Ruxue and Old Li are much worse than each other, coupled with the addition of a new role Luo Xiaobei at this time, so that the existence of Old Li is once again diluted, which may dissuade some viewers. If Lao Li continues to drop the line, the acceptance of the follow-up audience of bad people may not be a good thing, after all, the popularity accumulated over so many years is not comparable to Luo Xiaobei.
04 Conclusion
In general, "The Bad Man Who Painted the Rivers and Lakes" is a very good national comic work, although flawed, but the flaws are not hidden, his plot is compact, the characters are full, the action design is wonderful, and it is incomparable to many anime that rely on eating traffic. Nowadays, there are more and more national comics, but most of them are indiscriminate works, such as "Bad People Who Paint Rivers and Lakes" such high-quality works are really worth everyone to look forward to, I hope that bad people animation can do better and better, and I hope that the above problems are just some of my personal analysis.
