The 14-year animation "April is Your Lie" brought everyone to miss Miyagen Smoke, an animation about a young girl who saved a piano teenager with only her remaining life, which not only touched everyone, but also made the audience have the idea of "no regrets in this life into April, willing to be friends in the next life". This animation with a unique style of painting has conquered everyone with delicate character portrayal and rich emotional description.
In 2016, another drama with a similar style to "April" appeared, which was the animation "Lion of March" that mainly depicted the feelings of the characters. Naturally, many people will compare the two animations, I think "The Lion of March" is a little warmer, and "April is Your Lie" is too sad.
"The Lion of March" is mainly about a teenager who feels that he has to choose shogi, because the warmth around him finds his own place and life's pursuit. Tetsukiyama Zero has nothing like his name, his parents leave due to an accident, and Zero is adopted by his father's friend Koda. Koda is a professional shogi player, which is why Tongshan thinks he had to choose shogi, and he thinks that he was adopted into the shogi family because of shogi. So the young Kiriyama took shogi as everything, but because shogi caused the peace of his adoptive father's family to be broken.
Kiriyama is highly talented, and is one of the few junior high school students to become professional chess players, but it is precisely because of the high talent that the younger brother and sister of the adoptive father's family are jealous. The more Koda praised Kiriyama, the more his brother and sister hated Kiriyama, who thought he had destroyed everything, so he moved out after being able to live independently, and it seemed that Kiriyama's last place to live was gone.
Kiriyama, who had just lived alone, had nothing but the name Zero, except for cold and darkness, and this life was not changed until he met the Kawamoto family. Akira Kawamoto brings back Kiriyama, who was lying on the side of the road by the side of the road by the sake of his predecessors, so he shines a light in Kiriyama's cold and dark life, and the Kawamoto family brings back to life the teenager who thought he had been abandoned by the world.
It was also from this that Kiriyama began to grow gradually, and entered a good club because of a good teacher in school. Finally, I experienced the happy campus life that I had never experienced before, and I also regarded The Second Hondo who called his best friend every day as a close friend, and at the same time joined the Shogi Learning Club that I had never joined before.
The warm stories that continue to occur around him have allowed Kiriyama to find his own place to live and his own life pursuits. Kiriyama Zero is no longer the Zero who has nothing, but Kiriyama who has a family, a close friend, and a pursuit. Compared with "April is Your Lie", "The Lion of March" can actually be seen as a story of teenager growth, but it is not as tragic as April.
In "April is Your Lie", most of Arima's cheering up is due to Miyagen smoking, and sadly, Miyagenfu finally died of illness. In "The Lion of March", the Kawamoto family, Nihondo, the teacher, etc., many people gave Kiriyama Zero warmth and strength, and Kiriyama Zero perked up and continued to pass this warmth on to others. "The Lion of March" has the power to inspire people, and "April is your lie" leaves endless sentimentality.
In contrast, I prefer March's story. I'm willing to revisit "Lions of March" a few times when I'm confused and get motivation to move forward. As for "April is Your Lie", I still don't have the courage to watch it a second time, and I still feel very sadistic when I think about it. What do you think about this?
