This Spring Festival holiday, I finished 64 episodes of "Steel FA", I was really moved to tears when I saw it at the end, it's great, it's another animation work in my lifetime! And it's the first anime that made me have a strong idea to write something about it, to leave my mood at the moment, and to keep the emotion and warmth in my heart at the moment.
I first watched "Steel" a few years ago. At that time, I should have opened the 03 version. After watching the first few episodes, I was a little dizzy because of the too many characters. In this Spring Festival, I wanted to chase the old fan on a whim. In addition, I saw Wen Gang’s fanart before suddenly getting into the pit. After some inquiries, I decided to start from the 09 version, which is said to be the version that is most loyal to the original. After reading the 09 edition, I was deeply touched. I checked the plot of the 03 edition by the way. I felt that the gap was a bit big, which was too cruel. Although tragedy has the power to wake up people's hearts, life is so hard. I hope they are brave to pursue them. If you can get what you want, at least you can smile and look forward to the future.
Watching "Steel FA" with a barrage at station B, the experience is really good. I feel that although everyone has come to play, they have a tacit understanding and have not given much to the new drama, "high energy/nuclear energy ahead". There are a lot of reminders, and I will explain or point out the burdens buried in the details. I feel that there are so many like-minded people, and it is very exciting to watch. Ah, I really want to watch anime with the barrage open!
To be honest, when I first saw Edward and Al on their journey to find their bodies, I somehow anticipated the tragedy in advance? Perhaps I feel that the punishment that is too severe is given by the truth of "equivalent exchange". The road for the protagonists to find their bodies is too difficult. I have really seen many stories of hard pursuit but finally found to be futile when they reach the end. Perhaps everyone thinks that the tragic meaning of tragedy is more memorable.
But looking at it with the question of "will they be able to successfully retrieve their bodies in the end", I am more and more willing to believe that the ending will get what they want and get what they want. Because this story is really gratifying and touching. It reflects the pursuit of hope and light everywhere. Every character is very dazzling. I believe that there is such a road story, how can there not be a good enough ending!
Anime stories are told long enough, and the presentation of the group images is essential. What impresses me most about "Steel FA" is Aunt Niu's narration of the whole story and the shaping of the characters. She tells it with serious and rigorous logic, and depicts it with a sincere attitude. Every foreshadowing is a causal cycle, which makes people realize , each character has its own meaning and standpoint, and none of them are just tools for the protagonist's leveling up. Aunt Niu not only interlocks the whole story and finally forms a closed loop, but also can see that she cherishes every character in her pen and shapes them into flesh and blood. Digging deeper into each character, you can see the change in their mentality and role.
Of course, the brotherhood between Edward and Alphonse goes without saying, and I will never forget that at the end of episode 26, Douding met Al in the door after a long absence. Even if he was pulled out by the little black hand and the door was closed, he was forced to open it with a punch. , Douding shouted, "Alphonse, I will come back to pick you up one day! Wait for me! Wait for me!" I finally believed that on the other side of the door, it turned out that Alphonse was really waiting, That is also the body that Edward has been nourishing with energy. Although it is weak, it is really Al! And at the moment of the final battle, Alphonse exchanged his soul for Edward's right hand, and Edward exchanged his Alchemy Gate of Truth for Al, which really made me cry, Al is really the most noble and kind soul! Al has been eager to get his body back all the way. He has kept a small notebook along the way to record the things he wants to eat and play after recovering his body. He also went to the door twice, but he gave up because his weak body could not fight. The chance to unite the soul and the body, entering the door for the third time, is a chance to exchange the soul for the brother. Edward finally solved the big boss with the right arm exchanged by Al's soul, but had to face Al who had completely disappeared. At that time, he saw him constantly asking if there was any other way to bring Al back, but everyone was silent and powerless. I am really heartbroken! Fortunately, the twists and turns have turned. Edward sacrificed his precious alchemy talent in exchange for Al, whom he cherishes more. I think the "truth" villain is also moved by their brother's sincerity and persistence!
Hohenheim, Dad Dou, I used to think darkly that he was my father. After all, he looks similar, and there are often suspenseful episodes. The villain happens to be the relative of the decent protagonist. At an important juncture between justice and family affection, the protagonist Will be tragically righteous annihilation. But I am very fortunate that under the normal state of human nature, Aunt Niu did not simply set Doupa as the villain, but let Doupa’s family have compassion for the heavens and the people in the same vein, and Doupa could listen to the more than half a million in his body. The cry of the souls and pacify their injustice, so that these souls can finally condense their strength to contribute to the final battle. Therefore, Hohenheim can finally die happily, and seeing Dorisia is also the most complete home, the ed "Rain" inserted by the god at the end of the film, "Finally found a new morning, but the years have hindered, the journey is far away, Without seeing the future, I pursue the past in vain.” This is the portrayal of Dad Dou, who passively accepted the immortality of immortality, but the years are long, and the blood and tears of the innocent souls in his heart are more important and burdened. How fortunate that he met Dou Ma and also had the care and fetters of his family, but in order to solve these uneasy souls in his body, he resolutely left home and wandered with the souls, just to redeem the past.
More characters, regardless of whether they are positive or negative, have their own positions, and they may have stained their hands with blood to breed sin, but they can achieve redemption in different ways.
Roy Mustan, from protecting the bullied Ishbar classmates, to joining the army to annihilate Ishbarr, and then giving up the opportunity to become a great president to rebuild Ishbarr, he also struggled with justice and truth along the way. , military responsibility and other emotions, but later can find a way to make up for and redeem the past. I thought he'd been invisible, but Dr. Marr brought the Sage's Stone, my goodness, Aunt Niu is so good! It is not so cruel to arbitrarily endow each character with a tragic color, but to fulfill them with more abilities to realize more dreams and hopes!
Ska, I thought he was a cannon fodder villain at first, brutally killing the state alchemist for no reason at all (even if he did not participate in the annihilation battle according to Douding's age, Ska still wanted to kill him indiscriminately at the beginning), But later it was discovered that he had a high force value, and he was also carrying a heavy hatred. With the opportunity and mission given to him by his brother (although he did not realize what kind of mission at first), he was desperate to the enemy of genocide. To take revenge, despite these past tragedies, I feel sympathy and sadness for him but don't agree. But Aunt Niu's storytelling is really amazing. For such a character, Ska finally took on a more important mission as the protagonist to eliminate the president in the final battle. He cooperated with Dr. Mal to study his brother The rebellion formed a formation, and also launched the Ishbar people to unite and fight to protect the people. Even later when the chief was blinded by revenge, he could still come to speak up. How much I disliked this character in the early stage, and how difficult it was for him to change in the later stage. In many cutscenes, his picture was silent (the barrage said that it was for the character who received the lunch, so he did not make a sound), I was sweating for him, and I was reluctant to let him take the lunch. In the end, Ska actually survived and was involved in rebuilding Ishbar. It's too complete to believe, I really sigh, Aunt Niu's role modeling is not blindly used to promote the plot. After using it, you can directly take it off the line and let the audience miss and sigh, but stand by them. Everyone's perspective and role positioning allow him to realize the inner redemption and due mission of this role.
Enwei (jealous), every time he appears, the barrage is very happy, the seiyuu is so breathable, we are like watching Conan, and he is still a Conan who is often spoiled by laughter. His vitality is very tenacious. Once he was beaten back to his original form, he was able to regain his body again. Of course, he was almost burned to death by the Colonel in the end. When he finally returned to his dying original form, he still insisted on sowing discord, but what he got was everyone's right. His pitying eyes. It was only then that he suddenly wanted to believe that the tiny "human beings" he had been talking about were the emotions and souls that he most wanted but couldn't reach, and eventually self-destructed and annihilated. I thought the death of the villain, the more hearty the death, the more heartwarming it would be. Seeing that the chief officer kept snapping his fingers and burning so much that Enwei could not finish a sentence, indeed, I was very happy to avenge Hughes, finally to this moment! Maybe like me off-screen, I pursue revenge and enjoyment, and I feel that there is nothing wrong with the chief, but there are always people who have restraint, such as Lieutenant Hawkeye, who can use a gun to prevent the chief from being blinded by revenge, and Edward even if others say He is naive and willing to stick to the principle of never letting people die. Aunt Niu's awe and respect for life, and her perseverance in maintaining her true heart, are better than the revenge plots she choreographed purely to vent her anger, or the perfunctory actions that are casually arranged for the sake of attracting attention. Can the villains be redeemed? Some villains are indeed monstrous and indescribable. The sympathy for them is the ignorance and injustice of the victims, but I would like to feel it from another angle. , can not fall into the company of it. It wasn't until the end that Enwei realized that what he disdained was exactly what he talked about every time, and he didn't want to believe that he would also envy or envy the beauty of human beings, and we are in the arms of beauty. Is it possible to cherish the people who are with you more?
The other settings of the seven deadly sins are also quite intriguing. Rust (lust) does not have too much writing. I have the impression of her as a villain who went offline very early; ; Lazy still thinks everything is trouble to death, but he is the most diligent in digging a whole series of tunnels, and he is the fastest in action; Greedo is greedy but most eager to have Companion, he lied for the first and last time, and I cried when he separated from Yao Lin; Russ (angry) and Pride (arrogant) are androids, but they really like Mrs. President, especially when the President said , Madam he chose by himself, ah, it is a luxury to get even a little bit of love in a life under the control of others.
Everyone's childhood shadow Nina synthetic beast, even if I grow up to watch it, I'm already mentally prepared, but I can't help but feel sad. Family love is always the part that touches me the most. And weep, but I will really curse and spit on those mad people who can even give up their flesh and blood for their own selfish desires! In the end, the irony is that at the beginning, everyone was still shocked by the product that broke through the ethics of the synthetic beast, and scolded the wicked person who could even sacrifice his wife and daughter in order to continue to be a national alchemist. Later, it was discovered that the official Synthetic beasts have long been made, and they are more advanced. They can be transformed at will, possess human intelligence and super athletic physique, and even artificial humans. How ironic!
Even in the role of synthetic beasts, they have not completely wiped out human nature. For example, the four synthetic beasts (wild boar, hedgehog, orangutan, lion) under Kimberly were once human, and they were just doing things from their current position, that is, Because of the protagonist's influence, he eventually became a member of the final battle.
In this kind of battle, it is generally inevitable that the role of the lunch box will be unavoidable, especially the tool person, who will receive the lunch box at the last moment when it is used up, and the knife will be so embarrassing. "Steel FA" last count, I thought it was a cannon fodder or a character destined to end up with a lunch, Aunt Niu gave them the right to continue their mission, it's great!
In the group portrait, everyone may not belong to the same team (such as the army under the Queen of the Northern Faction, the army under the Grand Colonel, the army of the old fox, Edward and Alphonse, the master, Zhang Mei, the boss of Ska Coal, Yao Lin Lan Fang Fu Ye, etc. ), everyone has their own camps and positions, and there will also be different positions and different pursuits and parting ways. Even the team of the chief officer let the team of the queen take the blame, but there were times when they made unanimous efforts to achieve a common ideal.
Not to mention that the group portrait characters that can have names are impressive, and even small characters with no names can have eye-catching highlights. I am very pleasantly surprised. For example, in the final battle, the one who knocked off the arm of the President with one shot and let him fall into the moat is a soldier; for example, although the soldier of the Central Army was scared to death, but he had his duty, he still shot Gelidor; The small soldiers of the big boss and so on... I can
I really like the steel story and character development so much! I like the seriousness of steelmaking. For the shaping of each character, they are given the highest light to show, rather than the superficialization of the tool people only as a background board. Ordinary people like us, even if they are not the protagonists with superb skills, even if they are members of the group whose names cannot even be remembered, have moments that make us proud.
