Immortals fight for great harmony - "Devil Man"
Today, let's talk about the Japanese drama "Devilman: The Weeping Son".
Title Devilman: Crybaby (2018), alias Crybaby / Devilman Crybaby.
This Japanese manga drama produced by Netflix immediately attracted the attention of countless manga fans after its debut in early 2018.
Generally, comic dramas are often criticized by the original party, but this "Devilman: The Weeping Son" has achieved a strong reputation and a good score after its release. On the one hand, the original comic book "Devil Man" is too avant-garde, and it is still unconventional after decades of adaptation; on the other hand, thanks to the clear context of the script, several story clues have been improved, making this supernatural drama a more reasonable.
"Devilman" is a comic work created by the comic genius Nagai Hao in 1972, with a total of 5 volumes. This work has a far-reaching influence on Japanese manga, and together with Osamu Tezuka's "Monster Doctor Black Jack" and Riyoko Ikeda's "Rose of Versailles", they are called the three most influential manga works in the 1970s.
The manga story tells the tragic battle between a boy named Fudo Akira and a demon.
Fu Ming was originally an ordinary boy. After obtaining the demon power of the demon warrior Amon, his human nature was combined with the demon Amon's demonic nature. Human nature prevailed, and Fu Ming became a demon.
The most famous logo in "Devilman" is its explicit and explicit pornographic scene. The tyranny of demons on the surface and the evil of human nature buried in the depths are intertwined, and finally present a picture that is too beautiful.
In the comics, the pen is sharp, and after becoming an animation, the pictures continue to strongly arouse the visual nerves of the audience, and even make people puzzled. There were such avant-garde and bold works in the 1970s.
The form is advanced, and the content is also advanced. In addition to the jaw-dropping pictures, there are many questions about human nature in "Devil Man". There are many philosophical discussions in Devilman, and active participation in politically sensitive topics.
The difference between humans and demons is not the difference in appearance or ability, but whether there is a basic view of good and evil in the heart. Isn't this a kind of idea of great harmony and great love? The author's keenness is evident in being able to express this kind of idea of seeking great harmony in entertainment-based comic works.
Judging people by their appearance has developed into racism, and racial stereotypes cannot represent the good and evil of individuals.
From the perspective of the community of humans and demons, the actions of various characters in the play have a new interpretation. At the beginning, the audience will naturally consciously bring into the human perspective and think that the devil is evil, but as the plot deepens, the audience will find that things are not so simple.
Even if they wear a human skin, they are no different from demons. And although the devil looks ugly and looks ferocious, if he can follow the flow of kindness, he is also very good.
The death of Li Ruan is probably the best explanation.
There are two main protagonists in the play, Fudo Akira and Asuka.
As a normal school student, Fudaki doesn't have any special characteristics. If he has to say something, he is probably very kind and easy to cry.
Amon, who was revived, was possessed by Fu Ming. When it comes to Amon, it is incredible. In the setting of Nagai Hao, Amon is a member of the demon family who has visited the earth in the ancient times. prestige. When the revived Amon attempted to occupy Fuming's body, he was suppressed by Fuming's will, resulting in the creation of a demon man.
Amon's earliest provenance is also inseparable from theology. Amon is the seventh-ranked demon god among the 72 demon gods of King Solomon, a marquis of rank, and a marquis of flame who commands 40 legions. Even in Egypt, Amun was worshiped as the supreme god.
As a child of Fumin, Asuka has been inseparably linked with Fumin since he was a child.
As the biggest BOSS in the whole play, Asuka directly incarnates Satan and is the leader of the demon family. Satan doesn't need to be introduced, there are so many settings in various myths and stories. Here Satan represents the demands of the indigenous people, and between the indigenous demons of the earth and the human beings who have descended on the invasion, pure racists inevitably clash.
In addition to the Datong appeal of the plot, just looking at Asuka and Fubu Ming, there is also the pursuit of love between the two. The love for friends and the affirmation of oneself have become a starting point for Asuka to act. People who have been lonely for a long time are especially looking forward to the opportunity to have a heart-to-heart.
Immortals fight for great harmony,
Good and evil are hard to find great love.
