The "Shonen Song Line" series is not only an animation for children, but also a martial arts work that is romantic enough for adults. Now that its second part has officially ended, although there has been a lot of controversy on the Internet, on the whole, it is still a good work worth recalling. After all, we need to give Guoman a certain amount of room to grow.
"Wind And Snow Moon", from the visual perception, we can see that there is a certain progress. The design of character costumes and scene props is ingenious, and the production team's control of the details is really in place, and the costume texture is so meticulous that things are made; the micro-expressions and small actions of the characters are also portrayed in great detail, such as biting the lips when the female character is nervous, and pouting when unhappy.
Character drama and martial arts drama are also very "martial arts" flavor, a move or a fist, let people see this is the action that people in the jianghu will have. Some of the characters' fight scenes with special effects are also very shocking, and there are many moves in martial arts actions, all of which are really fighting, especially in the last episode of Zhao Yuzhen's battle against the Dark River, which really makes me feel that this is the power of the sword immortal.
The biggest difference between the second season and the first season is that there are many characters. In addition to the resident protagonist group, there is also the addition of "elderly song line". The main group of the "Young Singers" series is like a jianghu, so for the plot, the biggest highlight of this season is the use of "interludes and flashbacks". This technique is intended to highlight the mystery, and there is one of the biggest benefits - suitable for multi-line narratives, and is the gold finger of the group portrait work.
This narrative method scatters the climax of the story at the appropriate point in time, avoids the fatigue of the continuous narrative, and can maintain the novelty of the group portrait story. Due to the particularity of the animation series works, the first six episodes are not played continuously, so the experience of some viewers is not good, but the continuous playback of the supplementary series is still quite good. In fact, the director's attempt is still successful, but after that, it is necessary to consider the time point of the episode segmentation, and the combination can make more audiences accept it well.
The animated version not only respects the original work, restores many scenes in the book, and also sublimates and expands on the basis of the original work. What impressed me the most was the famous scene where Sikong Changfeng wanted to take Xiao Ser as an apprentice, whether in terms of lens language or picture effect, the look and feel was really great.
From the perspective of the novel, the animated version restores many lines in the novel, coupled with vivid pictures, especially the black and white piece of the two people playing chess, at this time the lens language has also become a slow shot, with the clever design of editing and soundtrack, which suddenly pushes the contradiction point to the climax. And when the petals float out of the camera, the picture returns to color, and the tension slowly disappears. The rhythm of the whole picture is tight and loose, and a lot of thought has been spent on the design.
However, the animated version is still sublimated on the basis of the original book - the scene of Baili Dongjun's wine gift was deleted. For the original party, this paragraph is completely a moment of charm for the role of Baili Dongjun, but for Lei Wujie, it is a place where the charm is subtracted, falling into the old-fashioned goldfinger Shuangwen route, unable to highlight Lei Wujie's later sentence "I lost all the way to Snow Moon City", if he really drank the cheating wine to improve his skills, how can he impress Lei Yunhe and untie the knots he has not understood for so many years. So this adaptation is very in place, and the most shining point of the role of Lei Wujie is that he knows that he is far behind, but he never complains about himself, but strives to complete his goals.
The "Young Song Line" series has brought us a lot of touches, so that friends who love martial arts can experience what is called the jianghu with temperature, and see many flesh and blood jianghu characters. At the same time, we also brought more positive energy to the audience: from the teenager chasing dreams, resonating from the blood of the rivers and lakes, getting inspiration from the protagonist group, absorbing the chivalrous spirit of "moving with the heart" and the power of fearlessness.
Not only that, the prequel to "Young Song Line" "Young White Horse Drunken Spring Wind" also appeared at the end of Youku recently, this drama is also from the middle film Nian Nian, remember that after the release of PV, among which the models of Baili Dongjun, Sikong Changfeng and Yue Yao have a high appearance and are widely acclaimed.
I have to say that China Film does have a hand in making character models every year. And this animation that tells the past of the older generation of rivers and lakes, I believe that with the gripping plot and the vivid character image, it will become a stroke of the juvenile universe. Finally, let's look forward to the arrival of the third season of "Young Song Line" and "Young White Horse Drunken Spring Breeze".
