manga, you are always underrated

I once thought that if someone asked me what the book that had the greatest impact on me was, after thinking for a long time, I thought it was the 2004 version of Xinghuo English for the postgraduate entrance examination. At the same time I think this question is silly, because the outlook on life cannot be shaped by a book by accident. But then I also pondered what book was the most shocking to me. I also thought for a long time and gave an inner answer: the comic "Killing City".
What kind of work is this? In my heart, in addition to being wonderful, it tells the story of ordinary individuals like me who suddenly faced death, parting, loneliness after being under heavy pressure, and how they endured hardships and survived after repeated luck. "I don't want to die", "I don't even want you to die", "I love you very much", "If we don't die, let's live together in the future". But too many works can be derived from the above textual comments, why only "GANTZ" makes me feel deeply, I don't know.
In my heart, a sense of extreme despair sets GANTZ apart from other works. Life is so fragile, and surviving it is like winning the lottery. The same is true for "Giant" and "Island of Ghosts and Animals", but there is no accidental survival. After returning to reality, after a short period of safety, ordinary people's loneliness, depression and sadness, as well as their desire for life and the rarity of their relatives. The emotional changes and the accumulation of courage in "GANTZ" all go with the flow. I think Xuan Yeji is like every ordinary person, at least like me.
After a long time, I reminisce about the afternoon I finished reading it. What does it feel like? It's a sense of loss, a sense of emptiness, and the pain of smallness and sadness. Many excellent works can arouse people's emotions. After reading Gu Long, you will feel happy, reading Jin Yong, you will feel desolate, and after reading "One Hundred Years of Solitude", you will feel that the wind has swept away everything in the world and life. But these have no sense of substitution, they are too high, too full, they do not understand, do not describe, and do not dissolve in the love and heart of a diaosi.
Am I the target reader of comics? Only seventeen or eighteen-year-old appreciative mind? Maybe this is the case, but what makes me brood in retrospect is that Reika's eternal death, Izumi's failure to return, and Kojima's mediocre appearance finally possessed everything. This unscientific!
Back to movies. The biggest advantage lies in the real restoration, the faces of Kato and Gang; the body of the BOSS; the buttocks of Reika and the young mother, everything is more realistic than the comics. The introduction of Gundam duel is also good.
The disadvantage is that it is far less exciting than the original work. It is just an ordinary work. The content is deleted and the cowherd is cut off, and the last blow is tasteless. The slow-motion performance of Yamasaki Kyo's death is not good, and it eliminates the impact of the death of the original book.
And this poor baby looks a lot like my daughter:
Muscle Knight! Where are you!
