The narrative is very simple, very typical European and American movie style, gathering equipment to fight monsters. It's so simple that children can understand it without any obstacles. As an animation work, the audience naturally includes children, so this is not a problem, but I was moved by his theme, "memory", memory is the most precious, It's really not just wearing an oriental coat, the core of the story is the most traditional part of the oriental people, inheritance and memory. The hero's mother, father, and grandfather in this drama have lost their memories, mother lost her lover, father lost her family, and grandfather lost the kindness of human nature. I came back to you again. The scenes of the lotus lights on the drifting boat many times in the film are memories of deceased relatives. When I saw the last scene, I was moved, and I also remembered my deceased relatives, which I will never forget. Memories are really the most precious things in life. For the purpose of shooting, for the resonance of the theme, and for the most precious warm and happy memories, it is highly recommended.

The best animation of the year, bar none. It's hard to imagine that such a story with oriental mythology is completely written by Americans. Those magnificent and magical imaginations and those mysterious Gothic scenes are amazing. The character design reminds me of puppetry, and origami reminds me of Liu Yukun's "Paper in Hand, Love in My Heart". The sound of the BGM is very beautiful, and after listening to the ending song in the theater, I didn't want to leave for a long time. Last but not least, a tribute to stop-motion animation.

Imagination and art are really good, but unfortunately the evil sisters and the big boss Luna are too weak, and the conflict is solved very little. It's hard to imagine that Hanzo with the possessed beetle would be such a second-hand. And in the pure Japanese background, all kinds of American expressions are too dramatic. In the end, I still have to pay tribute to the strong international influence of Japanese samurai movies, and there are still international fans paying tribute so many years after his death.
Kubo and the Two Strings quotes
-
Beetle: I have a feeling this is my destiny.
Monkey: No, it isn't! We can't trust anything you say, because *you* can't trust anything you say.
-
Kubo: Why does grandfather hate me?
Monkey: Oh, Kubo. He doesn't hate you. He wants to make you just like him. Blind to humanity as I once was. Only then can you take your place beside him as part of his family. Cold and hard and perfect.
