Frankly speaking, it is unfair to judge a work after only watching the fifth episode. I am not an industry insider or a professional writer. When it comes to animation production, seiyuu, filming techniques, and music, all of them are gorgeous. It's beautiful, but I feel an unusual sense of incongruity from time to time in the promotion of the plot.
The work depicts such a protagonist all the time - loneliness, cowardice, fear of things, lack of masculinity, unfounded sense of crisis, sensitive nerves of doubt, fragile self-protection reflex arc, longing for a sense of identity and lack of courage to communicate - Amano Xuehui, such a child, even a small fright can make him shrink behind others, he will be burned by fire on the 6th shrine maiden, when the believers wield swords and axes to kill each other and blood splatter, in the middle of the room and others are righteous Strictly discuss the issue of saving people or fleeing. Hasn't he always been selfish? When the strange girl sacrificed her life to save him, he was still thinking about using other people's affairs. Imagine that in the middle of the blood spraying from the ground, the protagonist is the diary holder who once threatened him to use his life for his own life and kill him at all times, and the protagonist is always protecting him and thinking of him. Sailor Moon, an inexplicable "sense of justice" suddenly surged in his heart, and transformed his sense of fear into a great love to save all beings. How did his sense of justice come about? Is it because you are afraid of being killed that you are trying to rescue a stranger? Can this be used to shape a person's growth, such an inexplicable succession and transformation?
My wife Yuno, the bond between the heroine and the protagonist is so wonderful, from what I know of the plot trend, this is a completely harmless Loli. Does she have superpowers? no? (Or did I not see super powers appearing?) She has strong fighting power? No, in the 3rd and 9th fights, she just dodged, fell, shouted and fell. The mobile phone she holds only records what may happen to others in the future, so she can't write something on her own, right? Even if there are many corpses buried in the back of her house, that doesn't mean what kind of terrifying monster she is, right? Where did Axue feel about her innate fear and alienation? Is it because of knowing the cruel game of Future Diary, the original fear of those who know the secret? Or is it because she has insight into her whereabouts and masters her own future of life and death? Or is it her unreasonable love for herself? If you were a lonely and sad boy, and suddenly a Ling Bo Li fell from the sky, not only directly confessing to you, but also saving your life, would you suspect that this girl was here to kill you? Did she come to kill you and save you? In the third episode, the heroine softened the relationship between the two with tenderness and breasts, just to pave the way for the corpse behind her house? Even if you find a dead body behind the girl's house, you don't need to be afraid the next day, right? There's no need to be afraid to tell the police uncle, right? What can she do to you? Even if she has your diary, it doesn't mean she can use it to kill you, right? Taking ten thousand steps back, even if the protagonist is such a crazy fucking character, at such a critical juncture, how does this awe-inspiring sense of justice for abandoning a girl for a stranger burst out?
9th, 6th. Almost every diary holder has paid tribute to the protagonist on different occasions, declaring that it is a miracle that the protagonist is marked twice without dying. According to the setting of the plot, this so-called survival game consists of 12 players, and the last survivor who kills 1st becomes the winner, and the future diary is not a history book that cannot be rewritten, its content will be at any time due to the holder's choice. And change, this is clearly explained. So the question is, why are the holders so sure that once they are marked with death, they will surely die? "Once the end's narrative appears in the diary, the ending of death is doomed." The plot setting has not been put into practice, and the holders only attacked each other - the same target 1st that the 3th and 9th tried to attack, And they all ended in failure. It cannot be confirmed whether other people attacked each other, but it was confirmed that there were no absentees except for the 3th in the first enlarged meeting, and the diary has been constantly rewritten, which is what every holder saw with his own eyes. . That is to say, in the whole process of hunting, all the actions of marking the end were unsuccessful, which means that "the marked person cannot escape the end of death" is just a scam. From another point of view, it is not necessarily difficult to defeat the curse of the mark. Although the 3th and 9th attacks on the 1st look terrible, from the point of view of the 1st's countermeasures, it is simply child's play, relying on the assistance of my wife Yuno, The Chainsaw Massacre was killed with darts, and the serial Demoman fell in one fell swoop. It can be seen that these opponents are really not terrible. If you are marked by such people, what should you be afraid of? So what kind of shadow shrouded the heads of the bearers, and branded their hearts with "marked to die"? In addition to the unquestionable majesty of God, I can only interpret that they are collectively brain-dead.
In the first five episodes I watched, the author used absurd gods to express the emptiness of the world, used the protagonist's constant inner monologue to exaggerate the uneasy state of mind, used cruel game rules to imply the helplessness of survival, and used bloody murder. Means and a large number of innocent deaths and injuries set off the atmosphere of tragedy, and the dilapidated houses and mutilated wreckage create a dark and terrifying atmosphere, but all these gorgeous coats can't hide my heart for the chaotic logic and empty heart. Discord in the world. The author once used the betrayal and help of the classmates in the school bombing of the 9th to try to express the inner world of the protagonist and help the protagonist grow up, but these plots and dialogues are so pale that even a bystander cannot be moved, so what? Impress the cowardly and alienated protagonist? The work tries to use an absurd and cruel survival game to teach the protagonist's worldview and make him grow, but every step of his growth seems so strange and illogical, -1+-2=3, those bloody and corpse, Can daggers and skeletons really cover up the real paleness and emptiness in this deliberately created gloomy atmosphere?
This work should be similar to Death Note, but I didn't experience the impact of the outlook on life from it. To sum up, the protagonist of Death Note is a human with a distorted world view but normal logic. I was able to follow the protagonist's thinking and logic to the end, so I experienced the charm of the work; and the protagonist of the future diary is like a complete Neurosis, I can't look at his behavior and way of thinking from a neurotic standpoint and logic, so I didn't get to the end, and I couldn't appreciate the charm of the work.
