Naruto got married and Taiichi graduated.
From Naruto to Digimon, in recent years, there have been childhood memories that have come to an end, and this time it is finally the turn of Doraemon.
On May 28, the "Blue Fat Man" returned.
Weak elementary school boy Nobita, with the help of the cat-shaped robot Doraemon, spans thousands of episodes of anime content and stumbles into adulthood.
The animated movie "Doraemon: Walk with Me 2" tells the story of Nobita who is about to get married, and he escapes in the face of a worried wife, a life of great changes, and the pressure of marriage.
On the other side of time and space, elementary school student Nobita turned over the teddy bear made by his grandmother, he missed his grandmother who had passed away, and used Doraemon's space-time machine to return to the past.
Grandma recognized Nobita and burst into tears for her grandson's growth.
She said with emotion: I want to meet your future bride.
In order to fulfill his grandmother's wish, Nobita flew to the future, caught himself who was afraid of marriage, and came to a "soul exchange".
I remember that there is an episode in the manga where Nobita uses a space-time camera to photograph himself 10, 20, 30 years later, and he is disappointed to see the layoffs, bankruptcy, and poverty in the photos.
He has one of the world's best robot friends, but he still grows into a loser.
In the animated movie, Nobita returns to the moment of birth and listens to his parents tell the origin of the name: he hopes that his son can be outstanding and successful, so he is called "Nobita".
At that moment, Nobita's heart warmed.
His parents so hope that he can succeed, but he is not outstanding, not strong, and may not even be admitted to college, his parents still put down expectations and patiently grew up with him.
Companionship is the spiritual core of Doraemon.
"Blue Fat Man" warmed our whole childhood, and now that we are older, we also take our children to the cinema and take out a tissue to wipe our tears where we are moved.
The plot that I didn't understand when I was a child rippled in my heart. The same scene, different touches, the original grown up we, the heart still hides such a piece of softness.
In high school, I had a whole set of Doraemon comics at the head of my bed. Among the blue fat man's universal props, there are two types that make me most happy.
One category is any door, where you can go.
There is an episode of the manga where Shizuka of Aome Takema wants to soak in the hot spring, but her parents can't go to work. Nobita hears her troubles and pulls Doraemon around digging hot springs, trying to surprise Shizuka.
Digging up the hot spring with all her might, Shizuka was embarrassed to soak. Nobita thought of a way:
Use any door to get hot spring water all over the country, put it in a small cup, and then shrink Shizuka and soak in the cup.
Seeing that Nobita is afraid of marriage in the movie, many viewers do not understand: why does Shizuka insist on marrying such a man with no sense of responsibility?
I think Nobita is reassuring.
Any door can go anywhere, and it can be wantonly wrong, but it is only used to make his sweetheart happy.
When I was a child, I thought that going wherever I wanted to represent freedom;
When I grew up, I understood that "arbitrary doors" actually symbolize regret.
Graduated, friends are separated. Some people are about to get married because they can't bless in person because they are not in a city; some people are in trouble because they are too far away and can only call to comfort them.
From the day of separation to the drifting away, there are only one or two regrets. If I had any doors, I probably wouldn't have missed them.
Growing up, there was another type of prop that touched me: the space-time machine.
In the manga single-shot, Nobita and his friends come to the Great Magic Mirror of Africa and encounter a war here. Faced with an invincible enemy, Shizuka thought of a way:
Use the wishing phone to call your future self to help your present self.
The war was won, and Nobita and the others returned home safely. But before he could rest, he took the universal prop back to the past, because at this moment, his past self was in danger.
When I was a student, it was popular in the class to "write a letter to my future self." What are you doing? What kind of person are you now? Have you achieved your ideals?
If I can go back in time, I want to hug myself: don't be afraid, don't be restless, all suffering will pass. You are not lonely because I have been with you.
Travel back in time and meet loved ones who no longer appear;
Go to the future and see yourself soon after.
As the years grew, the more I felt what a luxury this wish was, even a little desperate.
Doraemon's space-time machine gives me solace:
Time will change, age will change, and the heart of wanting to accompany each other is the longest confession of affection.
When I was a child, I gambled and ran away from home several times, and many people with similar experiences have not reconciled with their parents so far.
Hatred has found an outlet, but inside it is like being on an isolated island, the heavens and the earth are big, and there is no place for it.
Doraemon is like a mirror that lets me see: If I had xxx, I probably wouldn't be so lonely/so sad/so wronged.
The reason why I have such a sense of substitution is because Nobita and I have the same experience.
There is an episode in the cartoon where he is bullied by Fat Tiger and angrily says: Fat Tiger is a person who simply disappears!
Doraemon gives him a prop "Dictator Button" and tells him:
"If you don't like anyone, just press the button and you can get rid of him from this world."
My heart beat faster as I watched this scene, and I thought to myself: Nobita is so kind, he must not press the button, right?
But Nobita pressed, he made the fat tiger disappear, let the little man disappear, and finally simply let everyone disappear.
In the no-man's-land world, Nobita plays, eats and drinks, has the latest toys and the most free time, but he gradually panics.
He regretted it, bad relationships are better than no relationships, even if sitting on the golden mountains and silver mountains, no one to share is a suffering.
Finally, Doraemon appears, telling Nobita that the dictator button is actually a punishment prop.
The 100 percent freedom you crave is actually a great human suffering.
Children aged 6-12 are in the "de-self-centered" stage, and they are conflicted:
On the one hand, he realized that the whole world was not revolving around him, and on the other hand, he vaguely felt that everyone should cooperate with him.
This makes the child upset and cognitively dissonant. Kind as Nobita, there are also dark times when he wants everyone to disappear and loses his temper with his kind grandmother.
As a result, grandma died while he was in kindergarten, and that "sorry" never had a chance to say.
In the film review area, the words of an audience member made me cry:
I was also a child brought up by my grandmother, and when I was a child, I quarreled with my grandmother and made her cry, and I gambled not to apologize until my grandmother died. Every year when I visit the grave, I will say in my heart: I'm sorry, Grandma.
Tiny misses pile up and become great despair, a momentary debt, which can only be filled by a lifetime of regrets.
As adults, we force ourselves to be independent. I walked around in circles only to find that I was just compensating.
All I really want is that one sentence:
You're still here, you're with me, it's good.
Nobita is married, and we have grown up, graduated from work, married and had children.
But deep down, we are still the children who long for companionship.
Fujiko Fujio, the author of Doraemon, is also a middle-aged man who spends a lot of ink to portray the bitterness of adults.
In one episode, Nobita's grandmother rides a time machine from the past to the present, and happens to bump into a drunken Father Nobita.
The man in the tie and beer belly, after seeing his mother who had been dead for many years, cried and threw himself into her arms: leading him to bully me.
Alcohol can not paralyze the pain, pillow mother knees to sleep deeply, as soon as you wake up, you can rain through the sun.
Doraemon sighed to Nobita:
"What a pity adult."
"Why?"
"Because there's no bigger adult than them."
We have grown up, we still need companionship, but the people who can accompany us have come and gone from white to black, and we have already changed a wave.
In the manga, the adult Nobita is about to marry Shizuka, and Fat Tiger, Xiaofu and other partners gather together to hold a bachelor party for him.
These two people who have bullied Nobita for many years speak their hearts after getting drunk:
"You must be nice to Shizuka, she is our goddess."
When I was a child, the person who was missed by the hero for a while was really lost when he grew up, and he realized: If I had spent more time with her, it might be me who was with her now.
Do you still know them?
I have a teenage visitor who hates her father very much because he is always busy with work and rarely accompanies him.
One day, she was suddenly very happy: "My father is going to accompany me for three years. ”
She was annoyed with what she was saying, and the smile on her face couldn't stop.
Perhaps it will be many years before she understands her father's hard heart. Giving up work and choosing to spend time with children is a realization of what a luxury an adult is.
She didn't understand, but she was deeply relieved. Her father took the first step of change, like a domino, overturning her previous emotional distress, and her life became transparent.
Time will subvert everything except memories.
Those companions will become the light of life, leading us out of the mud in every dark moment.
In the movie poster, Nobita stands on top of the blue fat man holding hands with the bride, and the tearful blue fat man looks at Nobita and seems to be looking at me.
As if to say, "It's nice to have you there."
Thank you for growing up with me.
