The possibility of surreal, transcendence, and phenomena, the game is a description that is difficult to justify

"A game that seems impossible to be completed but can be completed" and "A game that seems to be completed but actually impossible" seems to be a topic discussed by socialist designers. In the game kingdom, every character and profession is pre-designed, the combat mode and "strategy" are a priori, only killing and upgrading is the meaning of life. Of course, the desire to make money breeds another world.
As an A-level member, Ash’s quality of life can be regarded as a human being, but like the whole environment, it is poor. Ash does not live in the "bottom", she is coldly avoiding and impatient, all her enthusiasm is over (see later, this actually implies a relationship... Over time, forgetting the original intention, emotion is Transfer to the dog), you might as well make more guesses here. That is to say, in the battle of the "Witcher" team, the crying Ash is more like a girl abandoned by her lover Murphy, and she has to cover up the secrets of Tuan scattered wholeheartedly. This is the origin of growth.
The thief Stunner told Ash that Murphy was "lost" and he went to the RS class through "Ghost". So here is an explanation of Ash's behavioral motives.
Game designers worried that certain battlefields could not be completed, so they blocked it and became the legendary RS class. What a grandiose rhetoric is that it forced life into Avalon, and forced killing into the battlefield of World War II. The memory of young people was also blocked from the unknown, as if people in the Eastern camp under the Cold War had a single-line understanding of life.
It can be said that Avalon's film has two purposes. One is a story (that is, a fighting girl is guided by love and conspiracy, and finally crosses the Berlin Wall and kills a betrayed lover. She also has a new idea of ​​life); the other is Modeling game views, political views, and philosophical issues, Avalon is such a model. Avalon continues the worldview of Ghost in the Shell Arise. The perceptual world and the virtual world are mixed and reorganized to subvert the "realism" (for example, the Real quadrant at the end of the film has reached the experience of alienating the audience). This "subversion" has the meaning of survival from a dead end, that is, breaking the usual views and ideas is not about gaining anything (such as level, money, book knowledge), but about seeing one's own world clearly. This last experience comes from a detail (the bishop is turning the book in his room, and the pages are blank, what does that mean? What I understand is that although the knowledge of books is not in the game, there is no difference between life and games. This The absorption of this kind of knowledge is equivalent to empty; in other words, what you see may not be true before your life reaches the Real level. Therefore, the bishop can see the truth, but Ash cannot.)
Avalon has a special thing for Poland Meaning, the same is true for young people who grew up in the last century. As far as today is concerned, the film reflects and predicts the virtual era, especially virtual social interaction, which is the Avalon of the person himself. Oshii Mamoru's philosophy is unfathomable, and what is written here is just a bad opinion. I didn't understand it ten years ago, but this time I seem to understand part of it, especially with the help of drama analysis. But the film also places a lot of places for interpretation beyond the narrative.
For example, the disappearance of Bajidu; for example, when he wakes up in the Real-class quadrant, there is only a food bowl; such as a concert poster with Bajidu theme, which looks like a mental mapping. It is worth noting that in the "real" world in the film, Bajdu also disappears. If Bajdu is connected before and after, it must be admitted that "reality" is also influenced by mysterious powers, and it has Ash psychological effects. , And Avalon represented by the bishop (the latter has no one knows its working principle from beginning to end, let alone legality and existence)
