It is said that although it is called Kubo and two-stringed qin, Kubo Na's qin has three strings. So I searched and explained that the title of the film was "Kubo and the Second Strings", representing father and mother respectively. In fact, it is "Kubo and Mom and Dad". The piano in his hand is called shamisen, a kind of two-stringed piano. The changes in the character's expressions remind me at any time that this is a stop-motion animation. Well, it can be seen that the lack of connection is also the essence of stop-motion, otherwise it is different from CG animation. I don't know why the grandma's expression is not as smooth as other characters, is it because there are too many wrinkles XD. All kinds of supporting songs are also praised, and the story time is really burning.

    The golden eagle sings the soul of the dead and flies into the distance, the paper kite dances to the music of the magic string, and the river lantern carries the blessings of future generations and sails to life. The magnificent fusion of oriental cultural elements and the blood of western storytelling, stop-motion animation CG technology perfectly presents a fantastic and gentle story. The Evil Eye River, the Palace of Calvary, and the old samurai house, the beautiful scenes are re-enacted with magical origami, pushing the technology to a new level. It would be perfect if it could match a richer story.

    Full marks for picture, full marks for stop-motion animation, full marks for music, but only three points for the plot, the plot is really too weak...

Kubo and the Two Strings quotes

  • Monkey: [regarding Hanzo] In recognizing his compassion, I recognized my own.

  • [first lines]

    Kubo: [narrating] If you must blink, do it now. Pay careful attention to everything you see and hear, no matter how unusual it may seem. And please be warned: If you fidget, if you look away, if you forget any part of what I tell you - even for an instant - then our hero will surely perish.

    [baby crying]

    Kubo: His name is Kubo. His grandfather stole something from him. And that really is the least of it.
