The reason why I have to write and watch anime every time is because if I like a certain anime, there is always a feeling of "fate". It feels like meeting you among thousands of people. This itself has become a kind of "adventure", and this unforgettable feeling gives people a timeless quality that transcends time.
If you finish reading it, you can open the player to watch the web page and just listen to the sound is enough. Both the voice acting and the soundtrack have a refreshing power. There is a hint of heaviness behind the voice, a hint of open-mindedness. The name Journey of Life and Death is not to achieve a thrilling effect, but to show that you can experience the journey of the beginning and the end of man in this animation. Of course it won't tell you the importance of life and death, all it does is show you stories one by one, and the rest can only be experienced by you.
Each one deserves a review for it. (But I'm lazy) So the next episodes are the ones that I feel have the most "flavor".
Chapter 6: Chaohua Xilu: Facing the illusory torrent of time in front of you, will you feel afraid? In a complex world, some people use flowers attached to "worms" to create living gods to maintain their rule, some people kill the "rulers" because of resentment, and some people take risks for their beloved girls to invite insect masters. The flowers bloom and wither in a day, the sun rises and the sun goes down, and the rapid time flow fills the people at a loss in the face of daily time. Akoya attracts villagers to save the boy, but his father is killed by angry villagers, and he can't survive in real time. Aged in a day, "resurrected" at sunrise. If anything can be called God among "atheists," it should be called time.
Chapter 9 The heavy fruit. What would you do if you were given a choice between taking the life of the infirm and keeping a good harvest in a year of disaster or a famine that wiped out the village? The difficulty with every moral choice is that the person making the choice is moral. In this land, the sinful nature of giving people through the food of life and death lays on the villagers like a moral curse. In order to get rid of this sinful nature, the man who most hoped the village could survive sacrificed himself by taking poison and handing over such a mission to the next priest. Yingu violated the taboo of the insect master and used this fruit to save him. Although there is no answer to whether the village can escape the next disaster with this man's farming knowledge after losing the fruit, no one wants to give their life for the disaster. Even the man who is determined to save the village with his death wishes most of all to live and watch the development of the village. Immortality is not a reward, but a hope for the world: the hope of survival.
Whether it is a worm who is surviving in the camp or a person who is struggling to move forward, the worm master has given a kind of care. As creatures, worms and humans are equal, and there is no right or wrong side in the struggle for survival. The target of the worm shows the biological instinct to survive and reproduce. But people are always attached to the things that have passed away, whether it is the half of the soul, the disappearing wife, the father's dream, the mother who died of illness, or the dead villager. Meaning, the word is only useful in humans, and the meaning of meaning cannot be understood by insects or animals; they are governed by biological inevitability. Yingu's journey is to constantly bring out the meaning and condition of people before us. Death is the end of biology, but it cannot cut off the connection between the dead and the present world. The living seek, miss, and worship the dead, thus continuing their existence in the world.
The stories do not tell the viewer the answer, but provide a choice. The islanders who live on tenaciously in Chapter 6 and the immortal man who travels and teaches agricultural knowledge in Chapter 9 all give a kind of life. possibility. It is too heavy to live to death, but every living person maintains the blood of the dead and will pass on his own blood.
