After the news spread on social media, many Chinese viewers were also very sad. As one netizen said, "The death of Shuko Fujita is like the crisp phrase 'don't worry, rest and rest' of Brother Hugh, which awakens many people's memories and feelings about childhood." ”

For many post-80s and post-90s, the cartoon "Smart Break" is a childhood memory that cannot be avoided. Among them, the head song "Smart One Break", composed by Seiichiro Uno and lyrics by Akira Yamamoto, has also become a well-known classic because of its brisk rhythm and catchy. With the introduction of this cartoon into China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the mainland have rewritten the opening song to achieve different degrees of Sinicization, and finally presented several versions of "Smart One Break". But after so many years, the most impressive thing is still the original Japanese sentence "ge ge

"A Smart Break"

In the cartoon, whenever Hugh is in trouble, he draws several circles on his head with two index fingers. At this time, the background music will always sound like a "bang bang bang" banging wood fish. Finally, with a soft "ding" sound, a break came up with a solution to the problem. Many people have imitated this classic movement of Ichigo when they are young, and we naively believe that as long as we learn this set of movements, all the problems will be solved.

Shuko Fujita debuted as a child actress at the age of six. In the fourth grade, she began her career as a voice actor by trying out a Western animation. Since then, she has been active in radio, television and other fields. As a voice actress, she is best at matching juvenile voices. In 1984, for her outstanding performance, she also won the "Best Voice Actor Award" at the first Japan Anime Awards. In addition to cartoons, she also voices characters in Hollywood movies and TV series.

In addition to voice actresses, Shuko Fujita also has the status of a singer, and she sang the ending song "Letter to Mother" of "Smart One Break". Different from the relaxed and cheerful opening song, the melody of "Letter to Mother" is gentle and mournful, with the refreshing and natural, bright and beautiful voice of Shuko Fujita, which appropriately shows Ichigo's deep thoughts about his mother.

Yi Xiu was the son of a former dynasty general named Qing Guo. However, after his father lost the war for the position of great general, Qingguo's mother, Lady Iyu, had to choose to let him go out of the family in order to save Qingguo's life. The Qing Kingdom, which was supposed to enjoy the glory and wealth of the General's Mansion, thus became a small monk in the Anguo Temple.

During the separation, the mother gave a sunny doll made of old clothes to a rest. Ichigo hung it on a branch, and whenever he missed his mother or felt wronged, he ran to talk to the sunny doll. And whenever he saw the rag doll, he would remember what his mother had told him, "You are a boy, be strong, and you must not cry." "So, as soon as I took a break, I had the motivation to support it."

When I watched cartoons as a child, I only cared about how Ichigo came up with a brilliant plan to resolve one crisis after another, and how he teased the adults who wanted to bully him, but it was difficult to detect that behind his wit was hidden sadness and sadness, at most it just felt that the Japanese ending song at the end of each episode sounded a little sad.

When I grew up and looked back at this cartoon, I suddenly found that the lyrics of the ending song "Letter to Mother" expressed the deep attachment of a child who suffered family changes in his childhood, was sheltered by his parents, and lived alone and hard:

Hello Mother

Last night I was at the branch of the fir tree

Saw a bright star

The stars stared at me very gently like my mother

I said to the stars that I couldn't be depressed

[Because I'm a boy].

If I am lonely, I will come to you again to talk

When will it be one day

Just write here and look forward to your reply mother

A break

Yesterday the kitten in the temple

Taken away by people from the nearby village

The kitten cried and hugged the mother cat tightly

I said (to the kitten) don't cry you won't be lonely

You're a boy and you'll see your mother again

Someday it will

So let's look forward to your reply mother

In episode 298, Ichigo ushered in the grand finale. He planned to go to the wider world to study, and to withstand the cold wind blowing by his own strength. Although he was very reluctant in his heart, he still said goodbye to his mother, the general, the new right guard, Xiaoyezi, the master of the temple, and the brother of the master. The last scene of the cartoon is a small backdrop of a person walking alone in a secluded mountain, wearing a hat and carrying a bag.

After all, Ichigo grew up, and the generation that watched Ichigo grow up also grew up. This year, many people who have deeply influenced us have begun to say goodbye to us in an irretrievable way, such as martial arts titan Jin Yong, book review master Shan Tianfang, Marvel father Stan Lee, famous mouth Li Yong, cartoonist Cherry, physicist Hawking, little cranberry band lead singer Dorothy... Now this list is to add the name of Shuko Fujita.

These people who have given us joy, made dreams for us, led us through rivers and lakes, and led us through parallel universes, either curtains, or disappeared rivers and lakes, or flew to the stars. The masters are gone, but I am sure that their works will stay with us for a longer time.

Thank you.
