<h4>Fourth, the impact of silver and red The collision of yin and yang</h4>
<h5>※ From this chapter onwards, it is necessary to officially start telling the content of the story, so there will inevitably be spoilers, and the audience who is very concerned about this should be cautious or skip this large paragraph directly. </h5>
In 2050, the Earth, because of the invasion of the cosmic man Zirikiri and the Qigris star troops led by him, the Earth was polluted by the atmosphere of the Chirichiri Star continuously ejected by the huge black robot Black Baron, and the Earthlings were on the verge of extinction, and the small number of Earthlings who survived were only surviving. In order to save mankind, the surviving children of Dr. Kasuga decide to travel through time and change the past to prevent the tragedy of the destruction of the earth. Among the five siblings, Koji, who wears a silver mask enhancement suit, Koharu, a little sister with super powers, and Kozo, a younger brother with flexible brains and scanning glasses that can often read the disguise of aliens, traveled to 2013 together. The eldest brother Guangyi and the eldest sister Xiao Hitomi, who stayed in the 2050 year of human demise, they all know that this journey back to the past is a one-way journey that cannot be turned back, and the farewell of the brothers and sisters is to say goodbye forever...
Returning to the three brothers and sisters in 2013, they found Dr. Kenichiro Hong, an authority on mechanical engineering, and handed him the blueprints for the chirikiri star's invasion weapon, Black Baron, which he had brought from the future, hoping that the doctor could create a robot that could fight against black baron before the Kiri kirin starmen invaded Earth. The Doctor agreed, but put forward the condition that the driver of the robot must be his brother Jian.
Subsequently, the Doctor disappeared with the Kasuga siblings until five years later...
"You're going to be killed today."
With his friends, Hongjian, who went to the underground black boxing market to prepare to fight boxing, met a girl on the road, and the girl said these words to him. Hong Jian didn't think so, but that night, Jian actually encountered an alien in the boxing ring. In order to save his health, he was KO dropped by the alien and became a ghost for the dead. Later, thanks to the help of Kasuga's brothers and sisters, Jian Cai escaped the disaster. At this time, Jian discovered that the person who predicted that he would encounter death was the little hitomi of The Kasuga brothers and sisters.
After escaping with the three brothers and sisters, Ken met the big brother who suddenly evaporated in the human world five years ago, and his heart only complained, complaining about why the big brother suddenly disappeared, but the eldest brother Kenichiro told him that he was in order to save the earth, spent five years to develop the huge robot Red Baron, and asked Jian to become the driver of the robot, the hot-tempered Ken just escaped from death, could not accept one after another beyond the attempt of reality, refused the brother's request.
However, then the robot killer Bogua sent by the Kirikiri Starman found them, intending to destroy the already made Red Baron, and after the silver mask fought with the killer, it was difficult to fight against the opponent. At the moment of the first attack, Ken is caught up with the red baron, leading the Kasuga brothers and sisters to escape the day, while Kenichiro manipulates the launch pad, and his life and death are unknown...
Ken, who had escaped, was furious with Kasuga's siblings because his brother had not heard from him for five years and planned to leave. The hot-tempered Jian and the already calm and composed Guang Er Da fought. After Xiao Yao's superpowers, Ling Jian recalls his and his brother's promises as a child, and Jian finally makes up his mind to learn to manipulate Red Baron.
Ken sat on the red baron control seat, in the display, there was a figure of his brother, Kenichiro in advance of his personality, wisdom and other data into the red baron's system, as an AI to assist Ken to learn the control of red baron, and then Ken and Xiao Haruka flew to the moon under the guidance of AI Kenichiro, trying to learn the control of red baron.
At the same time, Kenichiro himself is caught by the Kirikiri Starman, and from his body, the undeveloped black baron's design is found. This blueprint, brought back by Kasuga's siblings, allowed the Chirikiri to create the Black Baron three years earlier than in normal history. This is also the consequence of the space-time disorder caused by traveling through time and space.
Black Baron, who was created three years in advance, appeared in Tokyo to wreak havoc, and because AI Kenichiro guided Ken and Haruka to leave, Koji had to go to Tokyo alone to fight Black Baron. Although Koji changed into his brother's modified R2-type reinforcement suit before leaving, it was still a bit difficult to fight with a robot that was 40 meters tall.
In a critical moment, Jian received news of the appearance of Black Baron on Earth on the moon, and urgently piloted Red Baron back to Earth, and two huge robots began a battle in Tokyo. The Silver Mask, on the other hand, is in a duel with the robot killer Bogua, who has previously defeated him.
After a vicious battle, the Silver Mask killed the Trough, but the side of Jian who manipulated the Red Baron had changed.
Because Ken discovers that the person who controls Black Baron on the other side is his brother Kenichiro.
Judging by the facts in front of them, Kenichiro was transformed into a slave human by the Kiri kirih, and drove Black Baron to fight with his brother, unable to bear to lose his fighting spirit against his brother Ken, who was the killer.
At the same moment, in order to solve the most fundamental scourge, the Kasuga brothers and sisters instantly moved to the uninhabited island base of the Kiri kirito through Haruka's superpower, in an attempt to kill the Kirikiri starman and solve everything. The three brothers and sisters blew up the breeding ground of the Kirikiri star people cloned and bred the Chigris on the uninhabited island, but found that the Kirikiri starmen were not here.
However, Haruka finds Dr. Kenichiro kidnapped by the Kiri kirito here, and everyone realizes that the person who actually piloted the Black Baron is not Dr. Kenichiro, but a Kirikiri who simulates the appearance of Kenichiro.
Ken learns that his real brother has been saved, that Black Baron is a Chirikiri starman, and that Hikari also wears scanning glasses to confirm this. Jian rose up and defeated Black Baron, and the silver mask that moved back in an instant again asked the dying Chirikiri star people why they must choose the earth to invade, and the Chiri Kiri people replied.
"Our planet is destroyed, so I am looking for planets in the universe that can survive, those planets that are full of life and full of vitality, I did not shoot at them, but the earth is different, the earth is going to self-destruction because of human war and destruction, rather than self-destruction, it is better to let me invade and have a future." 」
"The future is up to us." After saying this, the Silver Mask shot the Chirikiri Starman.
From the time of crossing back to 2013 in 2050, the Kasuga brothers and sisters knew that this crossing back was not to change the world of 2050, but to return to the time point of 2013 to create a parallel world and create a new future.
At the end of the story, the camera goes back to 2050, where Hikari and Hitomi hold up their guns and stare at the gate that is constantly being slammed, not knowing who is outside.
When the door was slammed open, a man with a shotgun and a black cowboy hat rushed in, telling them that it was a mess outside, and when the two walked out of the room, they saw two huge robots fighting outside... Could it be that the timeline change in 2013 affected the year 2050?
Regarding many of the small details and Easter eggs in the play, let's start here.
The world of BraveStorm only needs one Kamen Rider!
In the cast list, in addition to Watanabe Shu, who played Kamen Rider OOO, there is another actor who has played Kamen Rider, that is, Fujita Tomotoshi, who plays Hongken's friend Akira. In Kamen Rider Amazons, he played the main character Yu Mizusawa / Kamen Rider Amazon Omega. As the key word writes, in the story of this film, he accompanies Jian to the underground boxing market, but he does not expect that in the underground boxing market, there are Qigris stars pretending to be human to assassinate Jian. In order to cover Jian, he shot at the Qigris Starman, and was killed by the backhand... The total appearance time is about five minutes, becoming the first cannon fodder in the play.
The transformation of "Silver Masquerade"
Let's talk specifically about the changes in the silver mask in the play.
First of all, the setting of the five kasuga siblings has been completely preserved, and in the original version, the role of Kasuga Kozo is the well-known Saburo Shinoda, while in "BraveStorm", it is played by Kiyoharu Tamoto. In Kamen Rider Fourze, Tamamoto plays Natsuo Onijima, the director of the Rakugo Department of Tennokawa High School who holds the Cancer switch, and is an enemy cadre who is good at using tactics. The personality of the character of Kasuga Nikko in this game has also changed from the reckless and hot-blooded youth in the original setting to the mental character who is good at science and technology, and the Cancer in Fourze is really quite similar.
In the play, hitomi Haruhi, the eldest sister, is a fairly famous photo star Tanmi, who has also starred in a close-up movie directed by Shimi Kawasaki in "The Little Widow of Earth Defense".
Tanmi and the lead actor Watanabe Shu, also from Akita Prefecture, at the stage meeting, Watanabe Shu also declared: "I want to go back to the time when Tanmi sister was still (Akita)!" I want to be a classmate! Want to go to school together! ”
Unlike other actors, there is very little information about the actors who only have Kasuga's eldest brother, Kasuga Koichi, whose stage name is also Kasuga Koichi, and this work is also his film debut. According to Junya Okabe, of all the actors, he was the only one who entered the crew through selection, and all the others were decided in advance.
Tan Mi and Kasuga Koichi play the role of the play, basically the least of all the main actors, at best a special cameo role.
Finally, the actor who most brightly dazzles the domestic special audience may be regarded as Chihiro Yamamoto, who starred in kasuga's little sister Kasuga Hitomi, in last year's hit "G&D Ultraman", she played the female protagonist Toba Laiye, three-year-old she studied tai chi, and even won the international martial arts championship.
After the release of the movie, my friend also specifically asked me, is it Possible for Chihiro Yamamoto to dance the knife in the film again? I was shocked if I hadn't seen "Ultraman Ged", how do you know!?
Although Chihiro Yamamoto plays a super-powered girl with superpowers in this film, after attacking the base of the Kirikiri Starman, he pulls out a sword with him and ends a Chigris Starman with a sword.
What's going on here!? In fact, when I read this paragraph, I think that the paragraph of drawing a sword is too abrupt... However, after starring in this movie, Chihiro Yamamoto also played a big role in "Ged Ultraman", and now she is also a lot of fans.
Later, jun Okabe also played the heroine of the non-profit short story ZVP (Humpback City vs. Predator), which was also produced, supervised, and scripted by Junya Okabe.
The transformation of Red Baron
For many viewers who have not seen the main film and have only seen a poster, they will naturally think that the protagonist of this film is the silver mask in the middle of the poster. However, the truth is just the opposite, according to Junya Okabe's shooting concept, and the proportion of real stories in the play, silver masks and red barons, in fact, are 4:6. That is to say, the silver mask is a big green leaf, and HongBarong and Hongken, played by Shu Watanabe, are the male number one.
So compared with the silver mask, the story of Red Baron is still quite a change. The setting is also basically completely subversive.
First of all, in the original "Super Robot Red Baron" TV series version, there is a defense force guarding the earth, called S.S.I, and there is a huge enemy organization Iron Mask Party and its upper organization, the Cosmic Iron Mask Party. This defense force team was completely removed in the new version of the Red Baron, and the enemy cadres were changed to the cosmic people in "Silver Mask", and the only characters that survived were the protagonist Hong Ken and his brother Hong Kenichiro.
Yoshizawa Yu, who plays Kenichiro, 2017 coincided with the 20th anniversary of his debut, and Watanabe said that he grew up watching his plays.
In the original version of the red baron to play the role of Red Kenichiro, is the role of Kyomitaro Ishida Shinyuki, who starred in the protagonist of The Mirror Superman in The special film "Mirror Superman" in The Round Valley, in the complete biography of the hero of the Xuanhong Society, I have told the history of the silver mask playing when the mirror superman was double-killed in the word-of-mouth ratings, perhaps out of "revenge" on the Xuanhong society side, the "treatment" when Ishida Shinyuki cameoed in the red baron was really not very good, of course, this is a joke, but the death of Kenichiro in the original version is indeed quite tragic.
In the first episode, Kenichiro in the original version was kidnapped by the Iron Mask Party, transformed into a slave human, and finally entrusted the Red Baron to Ken, he was killed by the Iron Mask Party as a traitor, and then the Iron Mask Party made a robot exactly like Kenichiro, ordering him to drive the robot to fight with Ken's Red Baron, and finally was burned alive by the "Phoenix Tactics"...
The main heart story of this movie is actually basically adapted from this part of the plot of the original version, but Kenichiro finally did not receive the bento so early this time, but was imprisoned, and the robot was replaced by the big BOSS Kiri kirito.
The last Easter egg
Who was the last man to rush in with a gun and a black cowboy hat? It's The Inspector General of Kameyama! Yasufumi Terawaki, who played the inspector of the first generation of Sagami Kameiyama, as early as the trailer, Terawaki Yasubun had already shown a small face. But the movie doesn't give the character a name, in fact, it is a friendship cameo at best. However, this character is given the exact name of the character in the end credits table - Shizune Taro.
Yes, it is Shizushintaro, the first male protagonist of The Iron King, who is also the work of Xuanhongsha, in the city center of the changed 2050, there is a figure fighting with a huge robot, and it is not self-evident who this back is.
Does the fact that the opening credits, with a big "to be continued" spelled out, and the intention to use it as an Easter egg at the end of the film, plus the appearance of Shotaro, played by Yasufumi Terawa, mean that Jun Okabe also has plans to shoot a sequel?
Although some cold water, but the answer is actually no, as mentioned earlier, the original plan of this work was to let the three huge special heroes of the Xuanhong Society all compete on the same stage, but for many reasons, it was cut into the current two heroes, and the string Taro that appeared at the end of the film was only to meet this regret.
In the interview, Junya Okabe himself made it clear that there is no intention of shooting a sequel for the time being (the old thief intends to continue to touch the fish).
Silver Mask is related to the Red Baron
So in this work, how did the Kasuga brothers and sisters who travel back in time quickly establish a relationship of trust with Kenichiro Hong? This is something I deliberately left behind above that I didn't talk about, and when the Kasuga brothers and sisters travel back in time and meet Kenichiro, they give Kenichiro a blow first, "You're about to get a divorce!" ”。
Later, the Kasuga siblings told that their father was Kenichiro's son, Kenichiro would divorce immediately, his wife would take his son, and the son would change his mother's old surname, Kasuga, and then give birth to five of their brothers and sisters. In other words, Kenichiro is the grandfather of The Kasuga siblings, and Ken is their second grandfather...
At that time, when I heard this explanation, it was quite thunderous... Because there's a huge plot bug involved here...
In the play, the oldest brother of the Kasuga family, Koichi, is 36 years old in 2050, and it is calculated that Koichi's birth year is 2014, and when they travel back to 2013, the Kasuga brothers and Kenichiro rely on a necklace to determine their relationship, at this time Kenichiro's age is also 36 years old, and Kenichiro's child is just a child. The Kasuga siblings took Kenichiro to hide and develop the red baron in the second year, and Kasuga hikari would be born as soon as he was born...
Overall, this "BraveStorm" is a fairly Okabe Junya style film, and the advantages and disadvantages of Junya Okabe are all shown again in this movie. The slight weakness in the plot still can't be changed, but in the special effects, soundtrack and other aspects, it has added more than a little bit, which is worth watching.
At the end of the film, the film releases a line of subtitles, "This film is dedicated to Kazuhiko Watanabe and Saito Hiji", and the two ancestors who created the red baron have gone to the west of the crane. The best gift for the two fathers of the Red Baron may be to bring smiles to the audience.
The BD version and DVD version of the game will be released next week (April 20, 2018), and the first limited deluxe edition has bD, DVD and CD BGM collection, a total of 3 large albums, as well as a mini script, an explanatory book and a limited bonus of official LOGO stickers. The most intimate thing for domestic fans should be that in order to take care of overseas audiences, the Japanese version of BD and DVD released this time comes with official English and Chinese subtitles!
Well, this time the subtitle group is completely unemployed...
What is the charm of this game, please witness it with your own eyes after the release of the DVD.
※ The online letter version of this game has been sent to iTunes and Amazon Prime Video on March 21, and friends with conditions hope to support the genuine version.
