      Can life be lived again

      Before the hero's first death, the screenwriter made the arrangement to show that Xi's life was very useless. After he died, he went to heaven. Xi couldn't bear to die like this. This time, he chose to be brave. For life, try to change the status quo. Breaking through God's block, the time axis was reversed. Next, in order to avoid the pursuit, he still chose between going to the police station and facing the underworld to pursue him. The latter bravely challenged himself. However, on his way...

      Short comment word limit

      I have to say that it was a headache to watch. The 90-minute plot hides the lives of 6 people and jumped so fast frame by frame. 1. The life of the supporting role → the choice of the man with glasses → the murder, the rampage and the racing whales flew out → the different lives of each person after flying out 2. The life of the supporting role → the choice of the man with glasses → this story is not over (thousands of lives are up to your imagination). The blue sky is so beautiful, seize...

      Go inside the belly of a whale


      The clips in the front and the clips in the back are super fast.
      Although I understand a little with the help of the bilibili barrage, I am
      still quite confused.

      Here will write about the general impression of the first rough viewing of the movie

      . It was boring to be stuck in the suburbs during the winter vacation last year. I was about to open it with my friends but gave up because the internet was too bad.
      I thought it was
      a sci-fi police and...

      Brilliant lotus

      The style is diversified, and it is the most gorgeous animation I have seen in the past two years!
          Synopsis: Male No. 1 meets the girl and female No. 1 whom he liked as a child in a pub, but No. 1 female is engaged to a good man, and No. 1 male is ashamed. The black forces that suddenly appeared were making trouble in the tavern, almost raped the female lead, and killed the male lead from the anus. The male lead met a super-funny God of Change in heaven. Because of his unwillingness,...

      Destiny is not the butterfly effect

      In this film, reality (real people) and fantasy (animated characters) are intertwined, and the short shots from the beginning to the end depict the past and present of the characters in parallel time and space. There is only one reality, maybe it is Mi Hexi who successfully got on the subway, maybe it is the old man who lay on the boat at the end, maybe neither; but there are thousands of fates in the mental game.

      Destiny is determined by choice, and choice is determined by...

      Yuasa Masamin's debut novel. The body painting and feces stories in the whale's belly are too interesting. The part of the stream of consciousness played is too long, and the imagination is rich. The large display will affect the narrative rhythm. This part of the rhythm in the later stages of "Four Stacks and a Half", "Spring Night is Too Short", and "Song of the Dew that Announces Dawn" is just right, the path of...

      Awesome. Perfect. How much Yuasa Masaki loves life to be able to take charge of such a masterpiece, the dazzling and fascinated breath-accelerating vigorous tension and imagination, the interweaving of countless life possibilities. Have you ever longed for a more fiery and dazzling daily life? Do you want to run seriously and try your best to live again? Will the girl you had a crush on for many years still be by your side? ——I am the color pen in the dream, only the book, flowers and leaves...

    Evaluation action

    "Mindo·ゲーム" is the first animated feature film by Masaaki Yuasa, director of "Crayon Shin-chan". In the film, reincarnation life is like a roller coaster, stimulating ups and downs, surpassing the limits of all imagination. Multi-angle narrative and free collage of image elements, blending 2D, 3D animation and realistic materials, presents a surprisingly interesting image. (Tencent Animation Review) 
    On the one hand, the animation...

      Myon: The cops'll be looking for us.

      Nishi: So?

      Myon: The Yakuzas'll come after us!

      Nishi: So what! I wanna get out! 'Cos there's so much out there! So many different people, living different lives! Incredibly good guys, bad guys... Folks completely different from us! It's one huge melting pot! See, it's not about success, dying in the streets, who's better, who's not! I just want to be a part of it! I realized that even if I've no connections, no talent, even if I'm one big loser, I want to use my hands and feet to think and move, to shape my own life! We can just die here or we can try, see what we've got!
