In the face of life and death, we probably have these three attitudes, or constantly replace and change between these three attitudes. Either head-on and die, or try to avoid and panic; or panic and blindly follow the trend. All three of these attitudes are the truest emotions of human beings in the face of death, the most instinctive reactions from the heart, and parts of human nature. No one can give a right or wrong answer to these three reactions facing death threats, which are emotions derived from different living environments and cannot draw a line between them.
"Snap Click" tells the story of a swallow fish picked up from a fishing port and a group of pond farmed fish that are kept in a fish tank at the door by a fish shop while waiting to be slaughtered. The swallow fish that was picked up always wanted to run out of the fish tank and constantly hit the glass to produce a clicking sound, so it was named Clicking. This is an ironic nickname, for the fish originally raised in the fish tank, the swallow fish is abnormal, only brainlessly hit the glass, and when people come, they do not know the stunned person who pretends to be dead. But it was this snap that changed the two fish in the tank, one died and the other jumped into the sea.

After being caught ashore, he jumped out of the fisherman's fish basin and kept puffing his body to return to the sea. The sea is its home in its heart, and it must go back no matter where it is. The fish that come ashore are also facing different lives and deaths, and they also understand. But it chose to fight vigorously until it was sliced into pieces of raw fish. Between the fishing port and the fish tank, it has been seeking opportunities to escape back to the sea, even if it is locked up in the fish tank, it has not retreated in the slightest.
It has experienced hitting the fish tank, asking for help from the king crab on the bottom floor, and once being only a few meters away from the sea, but it has failed. In the end, it was scarred and died on the way to the chase, and finally failed to escape death and return to the sea.
I think so, that the reaction of the click is a breakthrough in the confinement set by man's instincts, which is self-generated by man, a strong desire that is aroused from the confinement under the threat of death. This can also be said to be a human instinct, but it is suppressed by other instincts.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > halibut</h1>
The old halibut had been surviving in the tank for some time, and before the other fish could come, it witnessed the death of a female flounder who had taught it to pretend to be dead, at the moment when it practiced pretending to be dead. Since then, the old halibut has hidden at the bottom of the fish tank, hidden itself with a breathable steel plate, and no longer dares to face the death of the fish in the fish tank. It gives the skill of pretending to be dead to the backward fish, and also sets up a boring and cruel guessing game.
The little yellow croaker, which was affected by the click, jumped into the king crab pond and was stabbed to death, and finally thrown into the fish tank, and then eaten by other fish. Under the double stimulation of the old halibut and the small yellow croaker, it finally followed the footsteps of the snapping, and finally jumped out of the fish tank, and unlike the snapping, it succeeded, becoming the first fish in the fish tank to jump into the sea. The old halibut goes from fear, escape, and then great stimulation at the beginning, and finally embarks on the same path as the little yellow fish, which is its human transformation under the test of death. Fear and avoidance are also its instinctive reactions, which prompt it to feign death and indifference.
When the fish that loses the puzzle is about to be eaten part of the tail by the winner, we criticize the old flounder for why he teases his fellow people who share the same disease as him. The old halibut is a fish with the most complex psychological activities in the entire anime movie, and its psychological fluctuations reflect the changes in human nature in its body, some of which are criticized and some of which are lamentable. From its point of view, these are the emotions released from its cognition, and in its view, they are the most correct choices. The instinct of living creatures to seek advantage and avoid harm drives the old halibut to show a variety of human nature, and it may not be as simple as right or wrong from an instinctive point of view.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > small yellow croakers and other fish</h1>
The little yellow croaker is a fish from a farm, and like other fish, has never seen what the sea looks like. If it were not for the persistence of The Click, the little yellow fish would not have left the original team and turned to the Click. The cognition of the little yellow croaker mainly comes from the surrounding fish, just like they say, people will pretend to be dead, which is the only way to survive. Under the impact of the new concept brought by the click, the little yellow fish was also infected by it and began to chase the dream of the sea.
The other fish look like they are numb, without the spirit of snapping, without the curiosity of the little yellow fish, and without the complex thinking activities of the old halibut. In their view, pretending to die to avoid death is their most important thing, and death is predestined when they enter the fish tank. And all they have to do is to live in the fish tank for as long as possible, and by the way, they don't go hungry.
These fish are trapped between life and death, and when they receive a signal of death, their instinctive reactions dominate their thinking and behavior.
In the face of death, it is equally frightening, but its fear is the driving force that drives it to escape; and the fear of the little yellowfish comes more from other fish, and its final choice is also affected by the clicking. The old halibut is the one who is the most feared, and the one who behaves the most cowardly, and finally breaks through his inner fear and ushers in its new life. As for the other fish, they make fear their daily routine, and it becomes their means of survival. These fish play an important role in their primitive instincts when they are trapped between life and death. Unlike these fish, humans have more forms of instinct, no longer a single biological property, and are affected by many more factors.
But the only constant is that these things evolve from instinct, and there will be a shadow of instinct. Let's call them a new type of instinct, and like these fish, when death comes, it is basically instinct that dominates. It's just that these instincts manifest themselves in a variety of ways, and then they form a variety of human natures.
