I have been a fan of the old version since high school, and occasionally brought it out to review, although I felt a little procrastinated at the time. The remake was released in 2011. I watched 5 episodes at the time. It was probably because of habitual prejudice that I missed it without seeing it.
This time I still wanted to review the old version again, but the friend of Yan Kong suggested to see the new version, so I used the new version every day when I ate. After watching a few episodes, I found that my previous attitude was really sorry for it.
The new version is very loving, and I feel that people who like this comic are working hard at it, and the sincerity in the details can be seen everywhere. In contrast, the old version can feel that the animation producer has added his own meaning. The characters have no OOC, the plot is loyal to the original, and there is no original stage of the old version of certain jumps, the rhythm has become tighter, and the drama has not been dragged, and the original interlocking plot is maximized. One episode can't stop.
Needless to say, the style of painting is beautiful, it is worth mentioning that Qi Ya's fashion show, changed N sets of clothes, and the color matching is really admirable. This is the young master who beat the enemy Hakka. Qi Ya’s personality is quite different from the old version. Compared with the old version, which highlights a "cool" image, the new version has a cool appearance and is actually a very young wife. On the paper. In short, I like Qi Ya from the new version.
The new seiyuu didn't adapt at first, especially Nanikawa Daisuke's Nisso's usual voice is not so BT, and seems to be the most unaccustomed. Now that I am used to listening and accept it, overall it is quite good.
In terms of music, in addition to the OP unchanged for thousands of years, it's not bad. The BGM of important people is very good, and the atmosphere is in place, especially the brigade, Hisoso, and the beating of enemies; ED1 "Just Awake" is super nice, but the others ED is not impressive, and the ending animations are slightly shoddy. Although the paintings are good, the slideshows are all too foolish.
The character song, in order, only the characters in the second exam, and then the brigade came out, the leader and March are both beautiful, but...the brigade is all out, don’t you skip the beating of the enemy guest? Articles! Where is Xiao Yi? ! Even Food Hunter and Dongba Hanzo have character songs. Will there be such important characters? Is it important until the election? Xiaojie's character song is Xiaozhengtai of Big Sister Fishing, quite young; Hisuo's song is the same as the dubbing style, which is normalized, but the cowherd sound is still slightly uncomfortable.
In short, it is an animation that is definitely worth watching, and it feels older than the old page. I originally viewed it with an attachment to the old version and a habitual prejudice to the new version, but the result was conquered by the new version and I was chasing the drama.
