If you want to talk about the current Japanese animation film market, one of the directors who will definitely be mentioned is definitely director Makoto Shinkai, who is a halfwayaway animation director and supervisor in the Japanese animation industry and even the global animation industry has a certain position!
With "5 centimeters per second" officially knocking on the door of animated films, Makoto Shinkai, and then successfully opening the door to the animation film market with "Your Name", what about his past works, which are already world-renowned? Today, let's take a look at his most controversial work, "The Child Chasing the Stars"!
"The Child Chasing the Stars" is the first time that Makoto Shinkai has given up his field of expertise, directing an animated film with a very large pattern and depth, and it is also a work that Makoto Shinkai strives to break through after "5 centimeters per second", but obviously this animated film is not very successful, and it can even be said to be a little bad!
Whether it is in word of mouth or box office, "Children Chasing Stars" is relatively bleak, perhaps Makoto Shinkai wants to seek a breakthrough too much, but because he is too close to the style of Miyazaki hayao and Studio Ghibli, but he loses his control over the whole movie, so that the story plot becomes a little out of control!
But this movie is still a good movie, although it can be seen that there are a lot of shortcomings and immaturity of Makoto Shinkai, but this story can still bring moving and thinking, so today let's talk about this somewhat deficient animated movie "Children Chasing Stars"!
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > aimless chase</h1>
The protagonist of the story is an ordinary little girl Asuka, the young and not very big Asuka is still in middle school, because she lost her father early, and her mother has been busy working and supporting the family, this little girl with excellent character and learning looks a little out of place with this world!
Although Asuka's grades are good, and she is also the class leader, she is not very friendly with her classmates, and in addition to communicating and communicating with a small wild cat in life, most of the time is spent alone in the secret base in the mountains, and a person listens to songs from signals that come from nowhere!
It can be seen that the heroine's life is lonely, lack of family companionship, no support from friends, and some are more of a lonely feeling, although Tomorrow's dish looks very cheerful, life is also very relaxed, but her heart is extremely lonely, like a aimless bird, wandering alone in the air, never knowing where to return!
All this changed when Asuka met the moment, and Asuka, who did not heed the teacher's warning, still went to the secret base in the mountain, but was attacked by a monster on the way, and it was Asuka who saved Asuka, and the two had a little affection in the short time together, although the instant told Asuka not to come to him again!
But Asuka still found the moment in the mountain the next day, the two had a more in-depth exchange this time, and Asuka really had a special feeling for this mysterious teenager who suddenly appeared, so Asuka and Asuka met again in this mountain, only this time the teenager made a date!
Because the teenager can no longer see Tomorrow's dish, his body is found by the police by the river! Just when Asuka was still immersed in the wailing of the teenager's instantaneous death, the new teacher who suddenly took office in the class mentioned a place that was the same place as the instant, that is, the hometown of The Instant! So the girl's adventure really began!
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > obsession is a pity</h1>
Asuka, who had been unable to accept the instantaneous death, saw the familiar light in the mountain again, which was the light emitted by the necklace that the instantaneous was carrying, so Asuka rushed to the mountain, and sure enough, he met a person who was exactly the same as the instantaneous length, but he was not instantaneous!
Before Asuka could figure out what was going on, the two were attacked by a military group, and during the battle, the two sides inadvertently opened the door to the underground world of Yagotai, so Asuka, the teenager who was the same as the instantaneous, and the leader of the military group came to this side of the door!
After some exchanges between the three of them, things began to become clear, it turned out that this teenager was the twin brother of the instant, and the purpose of coming to the ground was only to recover the Goveis as the key to the underground gate, which was the crystal necklace that the moment brought!
The leader of the military group is actually the teacher Ryoji Morizaki in the asuka class who has just taken office, and Morizaki's purpose is to find the underground world and use the magical power of the underground world to resurrect his dead wife, so he also wants the instant resurrection of Asuka to join the teacher Morizaki's itinerary and begin to find a way to resurrect the dead in this magical world!
In fact, both Asuka and Morizaki have an obsession, which is an obsession caused by regret, Asuka has just had a friend, and he has not yet thought of his bizarre death in a few days, so Asuka wants to revive the moment, because she can't accept this strange fact!
And Sensei Morizaki was because he had a task at that time, missed the opportunity to meet his deceased wife for the last time, and thought that he had never paid anything for his deceased wife, and he had a huge obsession! These obsessions are a kind of regret full of regret!
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > it may be harder to put down than to pick it up</h1>
The process was not important, and in the end Morizaki finally found a god-like existence and promised the god a wish to resurrect his dead wife, but the price was a living flesh and an eye, so asuka who just arrived at the scene became a sacrifice!
But in the end, all this was destroyed by the real people who came with him, and in the end, Morizaki Sensei took the water basket and paid the price of an eye, and even almost took an innocent life, all of which were caused by those regretful obsessions!
Maybe it's really harder to put it down than to pick it up, but Asuka is too lonely to give up her only friend and possible love, but participates in a meaningless adventure! Sensei Morizaki wants to touch the taboo because of his guilt for his dead wife!
It's all because people are always hard to put down! But sometimes people always have to learn to let go, some regrets have been generated, that is, there is no change, grasping the obsession may only cause more regrets!
Just like this movie, Makoto Shinkai also chose to put it down, and chose to return to the field where he was best at in the days to come, otherwise we might have more regrets!
