To be honest, I really can't understand it, so I have always been curious about how the Japanese understand and view the story of Kaguya.
After listening to Oji 様 (laughs) シリーズ recently, I became interested in the two stories of Taketori and Genji again. In this series Catch Mali, Kaguya is called an alien by the unassuming Genji. . . In other words, I'm going to fall in love with this unremarkable source of Yoshino Hiroyuki. OTL
, and the king who fell in love with Kaguya is a lover. He has a deep love for Kaguya from beginning to end, and every time he talks about his sadness, he will cry and cry " Princess~~~~", many tracks with the BGM of the wind are touching to tears.
So I reread the Tale of Bamboo. At the end, Wang burned the elixir of life given by Kaguya on the top of the mountain, and the smoke could float up to the moon. From then on, it was also called Mount Fuji, and I was a little touched. I thought, ah, this is just a story about the origin of Mount Fuji?
can not believe.
But I really don't get the point in this story.
It's not even a story that grabs people's attention.
I finally watched Takahata Isao's movie today.
Celebrating life and freedom for 137 minutes, Kaguya is portrayed as a girl who is bound in a patriarchal society, chasing the freedom of body and soul.
Suffice it to say that it subverted my understanding of the story once again, and an understanding of such a common theme.
But maybe there was such a girl in the 10th century who got tired of the fireworks of the world and wanted to escape back to the moon.
