"Tokyo Love Story" heroine Akama Rika
As a fan of Japanese dramas, watching "Tokyo Love Story" in winter has long become a sense of seasonal ritual. (hereinafter referred to as Dongai)
No matter how many times I relive Dong Ai, I will still be touched by Li Xiang's sparkling crescent eyes and the crisp "balls".
It is no exaggeration to say that the role of Li Xiang brings me more strength than I imagined, and in many moments, lonely, wandering, confused, when I think of Li Xiang's smile and her vigorous vitality, I have the courage to persevere!
Love first?
When I watched the play, I opened the barrage, and many moments there were words such as "Li Xiang Love Brain" and "Li Xiang is too humble". For comments such as these, it can only be said that Li Xiang is completely misunderstood. In fact, on the contrary, she has always been proud to love herself.
For Li Xiang, falling in love with a person has nothing to do with appearance, money and identity, what matters is feeling.
In the eyes of colleagues, The completion of the rule from the countryside is wooden and boring, but Li Xiang sees the beautiful side of the complete rule: whether it is to work life or emotions, the end of the rule is very serious. (Swing is after being with Li Xiang)
In the play, there is a perspective that Li Xiang can't see that impresses me: Kenji attends a high school reunion, a male classmate has been selling him insurance, and Kenji seriously asks the other party if he remembers last year's World Cup and the crazy experience of watching the ball game before.
This clip made me feel that Li Xiang's love was worth it, at least at first. It's much more cute to talk about the "meaningless" things like the World Cup than adults who hang up their house money all day long, isn't it?
Whether before or after they were together, Li Xiang continued to heal them.
When he first came to Tokyo to work, he was uneasy, and Li Xiang patiently encouraged him to cheer him up;
Seeing that Kenji is lost and depressed because of his feelings, Li Xiang tries to make him happy and seriously comforts him;
After having a one-night stand with Wanzhi, he didn't want the other party to be with him because of responsibility, so he used the excuse of "girls in the big city don't care at all" to let Wanzhi unload his guard;
After finishing the rule to invite dinner, Li Xiang said that she wanted to eat caviar and bear paws, but finally chose a cheap dish head and fish board;
Because of the difficulty of the customer and the frustration of the completion of the treatment work, Li Xiang silently uses her relationship to help him get it done;
There are colleagues in the company who mock the end of the rule, and Li Xiang and the other party have a big fight, just to maintain the people they want to maintain;
……
Miserly paying seems to be a means for young people to protect themselves in their feelings now, and everyone is testing, weighing interests, and calculating when the other party will show the bottom card.
Li Xiang, on the other hand, loves frankly and passionately, sincerely and bravely.
Her love is to take the initiative to say I love you, to be full of curiosity and interest in everything about the other party, to find ways to make the other party happy when they are frustrated, and to always consider the other party's feelings when making decisions.
Compared with the "reaching out party" and "pros and cons" in love, this pure giving posture hit me completely.
Back to many people's interpretations of her humbleness and inadequacy, with Li Xiang's wisdom and sensitivity, those means of indulgence, she does not understand?
Not because she didn't understand, but because she was dismissive, and all she wanted was a complete and unreserved love, not a second choice, nor a guilty responsibility.
After trying everything he could do, the other party still couldn't fully fall in love with himself, and Li Xiang gave up. She went to Kanji's hometown to say goodbye to the relationship and resolutely stepped on the train 15 minutes earlier.
When loving, I will not hesitate to love, cling to love, once I stop thinking about it, I will give up again, and then continue to look for love and experience love. To be honest, I couldn't find a more enviable gesture of love than that.
To say that she is the supreme in love is to say that she is the supremacy of the self.

In addition to creating the dazzling character of Akamei Rika, Toai's classic also depicts the regrets of love and the rich and realistic portraits of young people.
Li Xiang's love could not be predestined, and the fierce determination of her moth was unbearable for the conservative and weak Ruler.
What's even more sad is that compared to the minister and Mikami, Kenji doesn't understand Li Xiang at all.
This lack of understanding is also in line with his ordinary man's personality, an ordinary man who is disciplined by social order and morality.
The setting of this role is of great practical significance, and it is also very referenced in the current Chinese society. The picture of life that the "Chinese rulers" crave is more or less like this: have a decent job, marry a gentle woman who cares for the family, preferably not too prominent in personality, and then raise one or two children...
Naturally, it is not that this is not bad, and this drama is not accusing the "complete rulers", on the contrary, it is presented in a way of understanding. As the classic commentary says, "Dong Ai appreciates the bravery of love and understands the weakness of love." ”
Rimi is also a very interesting character, seemingly gentle and simple, but in fact gentle and greedy.
After being with Mikami, he always wanted to maintain the perfect image of the goddess in front of The Complete Rule. Even if you have a boyfriend, you still crave the feeling of being liked by other people.
Playboys are transparent in addition to feelings, aside from the point of non-specificity, Mikami can be regarded as a very good person, knowledgeable and interested, and angry with friends.
The three-dimensional nature of this character also comes from his growth. In the early stage, he loved Limei, but he spent a long time in the pile of women, certainly not to say that he became single-minded immediately, and the breakup was also expected.
Later, Naoko's determination to abandon everything and throw it shocked him, and only then did he truly face his true self and have the courage to step into a one-on-one relationship.
It can be seen that everyone is imperfect and has shortcomings of one kind or another, and because of this, many people still like to go to Dong'ai to seek empathy when they encounter troubles.
However, some viewers may be lucky, in the relationship, they have not been confused, and have never encountered difficult choices, so when watching the play, you can simply put the "scumbag scumbag" hat on the character.
Judging is simple, but it's hard to take a little more effort to understand the reasons behind everyone's actions, but it makes more sense isn't it?
