Delicious and colorful cherry blossoms

The color saturation of this film, the rhythm and the drum beat are advancing forward, and when I watch it, it is like being sucked into a swirl of cherry blossoms and the sea.

Keep your eyes peeled.

The higher the color contrast, the greater the irony.

The longer the character's face, the worse the person is.

The movie satirizes things that even children know. It's true and false, but adults deceive themselves and are instigated by the government. All of this is of course a grand conspiracy of the government. Swap children for adults, and the comparison is utterly insipid. Replacing a dog with a cat may still work, but it is a conflict of "man's best partner".

The film has a mechanical feel and a heavy sense of parts. As big as handling a dog's formal box, shipping, launching, as small as the audience's applause, the craft of making poisonous sushi, the process of developing a vaccine, and the incision of a kidney transplant. And with every cold injection, the entire ducts of humans and animals are always leaking. Contrasted with the unruly children in the back, the suppleness of the flag-waving, and the curl of the explosive head. Thinking about it carefully, there are also pragmatic leaders (the one who wants evidence) among the children, who whisper, and there are girls who stride forward with complete intuition. Lots of fun.

Although anthropomorphism is the default factor, the dialogue between the two dogs is also very romantic.

"I can imagine" is simply a love story.

"Let's talk about it when we get to know each other again", "reasonable". Conversation full marks. When the cherry blossom petals fall on their heads and noses, the director not only let them talk, but also all the scenes and emotions are completely equal and personified.

The production of the puppet, the steaming smoke, the blood spots on the left side of the male protagonist's face, and the bruises right now, the roughness and details are put together.

If you like this book, I recommend "Mary and Marx" and "I grew up in Iran". All are excellent animations. The former is a sincere friendship, and the latter is a process of growth.

Recommended again.
