This is a work that has made me stay up late and watch it countless times.
"Letter to Peach" is an anime work that is easy to ignore, and many people miss it because of the name, regretting not being in the beginning: "Why didn't you click in to see it before?"
But Man man likes the name because it's the core thread of the story: a letter to Peach.
Who gave it? What was written?
With these two questions in mind, I will tell you a story about love, about reconciliation, and about letting go.
<h1>Peach and Mom: Love requires understanding and trust</h1>
The protagonist of the story is a little girl named Peach. After his father died, he followed his mother to a small island in the countryside and has lived here ever since.
Peaches are very uncomfortable with this small island. There is no big supermarket, no friends, except for mom, everyone else is strange, and the environment is also strange. She is at odds with everything here.
She had become silent because of her father's death, and she became even more silent. Faced with an unfamiliar environment, she wants her mother to accompany her, but in order to make a living, her mother must go out to work.
When I woke up in the morning, my mother had left, and only the rice balls were left. She became even more out of place, and even begged her mother to leave the island and return to the metropolis to live, but her mother rejected it.
Alone at home, he saw the monster talking to his mother, and his mother did not believe it, and thought that Peach was playing with the child's temper.
When she sees the fruit in the attic and the broken mirror, she asks why Peaches did this? Hearing the yokai's statement, he has always thought that Peach is lying, evading responsibility, slapping Peach, Peach can't stand the grievances, and runs away from home.
This situation is common in reality.
Many parents can be busy with career or family chores and pay less attention to their children. As Peaches says in the anime, "You never understood me."
But from the mother's point of view, without a husband, she has become the pillar of the family, for the sake of her daughter's future life, even if she is sick and sad, she must get up early and go to work greedily. It's not that I don't understand my daughter, it's that I can't help myself.
Similarly, Peach did not understand her mother.
Each of them has their own thoughts, but also their own sorrows, but they are neglected to communicate, so they lack understanding of each other, which has caused their own misunderstanding.
<h1>Peach and Dad: Love needs to be reconciled before life can go on</h1>
Before his death, Dad wrote a letter to Peach, but there was no content, which made it difficult for Peach to follow the guilt in patience. Because, before Dad died, Peaches had a fight with him, and said with a temper, "You don't have to come back", and then Dad really never came back.
Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know if the next one to open is a surprise or an accident.
Although it was for my parents' anniversary and to make my parents happy, my father was still delayed because of work. Not only is it a promise, but a way to please children also stings the peach. That's why she said such a sad thing to her father, who had always been smiling.
It was like a thorn in Peach's heart, and it hurt hard, and she wanted to apologize, to know what her father wanted to say to herself.
The three members of the "Guardian Group" from heaven will have a relationship with Peach by chance, and then live in Peach's house. They can convey the Word of the world to their deceased loved ones in heaven.
Their mission this time is to protect Peach and her mother. At first, in order to ensure that the mission is completed, they borrow the bodies of three yokai and trick Peach into thinking that she is just an ordinary yokai.
Ah Shi, Ah Chuan, and Ah Yan, their faces were fierce and terrible, but their hearts were soft and messy. Although they will steal oranges, steal mirrors, and destroy farmland in order to eat.
However, when Peaches faced the typhoon and storm, she still chose to help herself and brought back to heaven the letter that Peach wrote to her father.
Getting along with them also makes the lonely peach have the joy of life. With them, Peach was very happy, although she always looked disgusted.
Peaches sees a different world and changes her attitude towards life.
Finally, with their help, Mom's asthma was treated in time, and the task of the three members of the guardian group was over. The mother and daughter also reviewed their own shortcomings and apologized to each other. Peaches took the first step toward reconciliation with her mother, becoming more sensible and braver.
Reconciliation with Mom also means Peach's growth and change, so Dad's letter also shows its content at this time. "If you work hard, your mother will hand it over to you."
Then the words disappeared, Dad's last wish was over, and Peach's guilt was put down and liberated.
It is a very warm ending, everyone through their own efforts, through their own inner reconciliation, to protect their loved ones, and then continue to work hard towards the future to live. Even if he was as weak as an uncle, he also guarded Xiao Yu, who had been thinking about in his heart at a time of crisis.
Peaches successfully dived, became the children of the island, chatted with his grandparents and became cheerful, and has adapted to the environment of the island and integrated into the life of the people of the island.
In life, everyone has regrets or guilt, and then they trap themselves in it, unwilling to face the new life, obsessed with the past, but in fact, this will only make themselves deeper and deeper.
Only by facing it directly can we truly achieve liberation. Beloved, where are you? Look at me gently.
