Ever since I was shocked by "Five Centimeters in a Second", I have had inexplicable expectations for Makoto Shinkai's works. His greatness lies in the "combination of emotions in the scenery": the complex and unspeakable emotions of the characters at that time are reproduced through the exquisite animation scenery and the piano music full of fresh Japanese style to create a kind of feeling in the audience's mind. Emotional waves in the film, so as to achieve a high degree of cognitive unity between the director and the audience. "The Garden of Words" has developed this style to the point where it is not too oily. Whether it is the splash of raindrops falling into the water in the flowerpot, the reflection of the high heels reflected by the wet ground after the rain, or all the details of the tips of the green branches and leaves that are gently dipped into the water by the wind, Xin Haicheng has done it not only vividly , and more perfect than the real thing!
For such a simple plot, I think the director has written to the extreme. In the climax of the final film, he vividly expresses the Japanese graceful and graceful encounters deliberately and continuously through the pavilion in the rain, as well as the Japanese nation's habit of forbearance and explosion under long-term repression.
After reading it, I would like to say: Seeing how the graceful school expresses the love between sister and brother + teacher-student love, not only the process is full of poignant beauty, but the ending is even more empowering. Shoes are actually a metaphor for the motivation and courage to move forward in life, and this is the precious gift that the hero and heroine ultimately leave each other.
