Say the words at the front. The original party retreated, the original party retreated, the original party retreated, this article is completely based on the animated version of "Re: Life in Another World from Scratch", without interspersing any evaluation of the novel version.
This time it is still about the heroine Amelia.
Well I admit, as the heroine of this anime, Amelia is beautiful, very cute, very gentle, very healing, but... Very ungrounded.
At the beginning of the first season, Emilia still appeared in a goddess manner, but after the King's Selection, to be precise, in Rem's first highlight moment, when he retired from the warcraft chapter in the village, he "went offline". The animation tells the story almost entirely from the perspective of the male protagonist, Pleiades, so it does not give Emilia much detail, which also gives her the little girl next to her, Rem, more opportunities to go abroad. And Rem since shed the impression of "ghost maid", the personality is very "grounded", it is easy to make the audience feel good, and Emilia, can not say that it is high, but the body is surrounded by a goddess, but the mind is at the level of a child, not to say "noble", I temporarily call it "fairy" breath, will not say that it is annoying, but at least it is not very likeable.
The character of Emilia portrayed by Tatsuhira Nagatsuki is somewhat out of place with the thrilling rhythm of the story. She is not a female companion who accompanies you on an adventure, but a girl who hides in the mansion all day, with a lonely and lonely past, with sad memories, but her spirit is not so stable, such an immature girl - to be honest, this is not the heroine that the audience expects, but just a girl that the author hopes to portray, with such a different difference. This is perhaps a big reason why the supporting character Reim has a more overwhelming popularity. What the audience wants to see is a girl who accompanies the male protagonist from birth to death, who can bring growth and courage to the male protagonist, rather than a symbolic girl who allows the male protagonist to gain courage for her, or the reason for the male protagonist's action, just to win her favor.
Re: ANotherWorldly Life from Scratch has aired 2 seasons and 11 episodes, and if the second season has 24 episodes in two seasons, it's almost halfway through. But so far, the heroine Amelia's role is still very marginalized. Before a lot of the original party jumped out and said, the Sacred Domain chapter has not yet finished, what are you anxious, there will be more scenes in the back.
The problem is that I mean "marginalization", not the question of how much drama there is. It was her tepid attitude. The problem of less drama is not to say, from the current structure of the Sacred Domain, Pleiades' actions, thoughts, and psychology are the most important parts, and Emilia's psychology is almost empty. And the way Pleiades deals with it is, "Since Emilia can't pass the trial, then I should replace her to pass the trial", so that the rhythm of the story will be fully mastered by Pleiades, and I think that with the rhythm of the animation, the second season of Emilia, at least so far, is half wasted. Quite marginal.
And Emilia's scenes are separated by many episodes, when they are finally online, the result is a state of illness and petite blackening mode ON, according to Rozval, "Under my spur, Amelia's mental state tends to be unstable", and Amelia in this state can be said to be collapsed, putting all her personal feelings on Pleiades, even Pleiades herself is difficult to accept the heroine's sudden rise of goodwill, which shows that Emilia, to get to Pleiades, or to emotionally let the audience have a sense of identity, So far it's been harder.
Here I would like to mention the light modification of "Sword Art Online" next door, many people say that it is clichéd, it is indeed cheesy, but the plot of the king's way also has a very easy environment for the audience to create a sense of identity and plot. Yasna, who accompanied Kirito from birth to death, her feelings for Kirito and the audience's identification with the story are consistent, and it is easy to win a good feeling, which is the story of the king. And Emilia, although the male protagonist was born and died for her, he could not get emilia's favor, but he got this subtle design that would feel strange, making it difficult for Emilia to win the public's favor.
When the male protagonist has held back so much, suffered so much, and paid so much for Emilia, but he feels that Emilia will not have a good feeling for himself because of this, it is difficult for the audience to have a strong good feeling for Emilia in the story.
Of course, you said that it is because Emilia is shrouded in this non-royal fairy spirit, so you feel that Amelia is awesome, this is also freedom. But personally I think that the story of "Re: Life in Another World from Scratch" is very well written, there are many details, and the emotional substitution is also very successful, that is, the heroine, can not say that it is not hot, but it is somewhat ungrounded.
