-by-comment on "Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust"
vampire-related movie animations are all the rage so far, the most commendable in Japan are "Hellsing" and "Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust", if the former is one The chapter is full of gorgeous epics of religion, violent aesthetics, and personal heroism, so the latter seems too indifferent and lonely in the grandeur of the Middle Ages.
No one is talking about the plot, but there are indeed many people praising it-"Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust" tells an old-fashioned, monotonous, slightly sensational and lackluster story. As a result, I directly copied a popular skeleton: Vampire Hunter D is the offspring of the Vampire King and the human female, and he is a resounding vampire hunter with agility. Charlotte, the daughter of the Elbon family, was taken abducted by the vampire Mael, and the manor invited D and the vampire hunter Marx brothers and sisters to rescue. On the way, the brothers and sisters D and Marx competed with each other for rewards, and they broke up unhappy. Later, D was attacked by the three masters of Mael Castlevania nobles. D suddenly became ill at a critical moment. Layla, one of Marx’s brothers and sisters, rescued D. They agreed that whoever died first would go to his grave in the future. Present flowers. Later, they found out that Charlotte was not taken away, but fell in love with Mael. The two eloped together and were heading to the castle of Camilla, the vampire Countess, to take Camilla’s spacecraft to the paradise." "The City of Night" began their new life. However, Camilla just tricked them away, her real purpose is to suck up Charlotte's blood and revive herself. D arrived in time and started a life and death battle with Camilla.
It may be because of the lack of plot that people can never forget D's tight lips, his plain and quiet tone, the demon in his left palm who is responsible for complaining, his robe that rises up against the wind, his shape and shadow stand alone, and he will never grow old. Never pass away. Although the plot is mediocre, this animated film with excellent paintings and beautiful music is timeless because of the protagonist and the theme he carries.
According to the vampire legend, the king of vampires is Cain, then D is a high-level hybrid, immortal: D bought a mechanical horse in a small town, and the old man in the shop asked him, sir, do you remember the children you saved decades ago Yes, I am one of them. Time can no longer restrain D, no, there is nothing to restrain D except D himself.
Perhaps many people long for immortality, but as Zarathustra often says, "My brothers, don't believe those who talk to you about the hope of surpassing the world! They are poisoners, whether they know it or not."— -In D's figure, the eternal life we long for is endless loneliness. At the end of the movie, D kept the promise to see Laila off. He hid in the shade of the trees and watched Laila's coffin sink into the ground, and his relatives put down the flowers of mourning. He is still the same as half a century ago, with a tall and straight face, a clean face, and a tight lip line. A girl found D, and she asked him: "Are you the hunter my grandma often said." She stared at D and smiled, her eyes pure blue like Layla. D is silent, or he just stops talking. He tried to be gentle, but this kind of gentleness was a bit cramped, a bit sharp and a bit old. After all, he was immortal, and all death and rebirth were just a glimpse of his life.
In the Bible, Cain should have been punished severely for killing Abel. However, God placed a "mark" for Cain, perhaps only issuing a serious order prohibiting people from killing Cain to avenge Abel. Hidden and gave him eternal life. Thinking about it carefully, it is actually more terrifying to see Wanmu Chunwu in front of the diseased tree, or the death of a loved one, while still standing still, rather than death. To put it pessimistically, everyone is lonely and everyone is empty. Then eternal life is to superimpose this infinitely-no longer need others, no matter what talent can find a substitute, no matter what kind of interpersonal relationship can be replaced; you should be the icing on the cake for the times, and the times have become your embellishment, yours Life is like a black hole, tracing the root to become a void. Thus, the fleeting sand scrapes over you like a blade, and you stand in the long dark river, gritting your teeth calmly, and you are standing and hanging each other.
Decay and collapse are the destined end of everything, and what mortals do is to try their best to delay the arrival of the end. The Latin proverb says: "Death is the ultimate heaven." The
story ends, and the magnificent and desolate background music plays.
D he has no choice, and in the end he will still embark on a journey alone-on a horse, his robe stretched against the wind, showing an elegant and free gesture. He only left the world with a black back like a night. And the background seemed to cry: "You and others are all passersby."
