It's an animal world

"Hold me, or eat me, I ask you to decide." I don't know if rabbits really have this kind of fatal attribute. If not, then I would rather bind her love to death. For Legacy and Haru, falling in love is fatal.

The word "人wai" comes from the ancient Japanese customary name for animals, monsters, and other non-human beings, "humanwai (じんがい)", which means the anthropomorphism of creatures other than the human species that retain their original attributes.

The settings outside of animals and humans have a lot of room to play, breaking the boundaries of species isolation, introducing human thought and civilization, while retaining the characteristics and habits of animals, so that the rules of the animal world can be re-established. In such a world, contradictions and conflicts will inevitably become more obvious, order will become more important but will also become more fragile due to the intensification of opposition, and the story space can be expanded geometrically, allowing readers to think from the dual dimensions of human nature and animal nature.

The rules of the world outside humans are far from being flat like a single species. They have more complex psychology and more multi-faceted personalities than human beings. They are applied to different species and greatly extend the direction of the narrative. It is conceivable that in such a world What complex rules must life follow to balance the coexistence of strong and weak relationships at the level of the food chain.

The social relationship of Animal Rhapsody is set on the campus. Bright sunlight, soft air, and interesting collisions between different species have added a hazy filter to the law of the jungle, but this is not a light-hearted love story. From beginning to end, there is a bloody smell that cannot be ignored.

【Sex mixed with appetite and mixed appetite】

When holding an unresistable rabbit in his arms, which is more important, the instinct to eat meat or doi, may be the dead end of every young and healthy carnivore who falls into transcendental love. The carnivorous instinct has become the original sin of carnivores, and suppressing their desires is a compulsory course for them when they are growing up. Carnivores are controlled by law and morality and have to be "humans" with their tails between their tails. Legosy is such a wolf, his appearance is so decadent that he has no wolf shape, not to mention his wolf nature that he has not yet realized, but his nature has become the restraint of growth.

Legacy's job in the theater club is a lighting engineer. Standing in the dark also coincides with his character, which is in sharp contrast with the radiant Louis predecessors on the stage. The growth defects caused by acquired constraints make Legacy habitually hide. Self: Minimize your own presence as a threat as much as possible.

For Legosy at this time, eating meat is not only illegal, but also the commandment of being born as a wolf, so when Xiaochun awakened his carnivorous nature for the first time, Legosy fled out of fear of guilt and shame. What I can't face is not only my own heartbeat, but also whether the real source of my emotions is the occasional induced appetite. Although it looks like a middle-aged teenager with a conflicted heart in adolescence, the root of this struggle is It's a natural identity that can't be self-consistent.

It is shown many times in the film that haru is transmitted to Legacy's brain in the form of breath. It is obviously a hormonal lust that is mixed into a sweet taste of food. For teenagers, love can be as sweet as food. Not really can be food.

In this regard, the boss of the Lion Gang, the villain, is completely opposite to Legacy. Standing at the top of power can naturally defy all rules. He will not have a psychological burden due to meat-eating, and even the prohibition of meat-eating can bring more than one's appetite. He didn't completely regard Haru as food. If it was pure meat, he just had to cook the rabbits into delicious dishes, let the rabbits bathe "freely", and let the rabbits take off their clothes and enjoy it. The plump body is like an ambiguous foreplay unfolding for the sake of eating. Under absolute power, food is a mixture of taboo and lust.

In the process of saving Xiaochun, Legoshi gradually realized that he fell in love with rabbits, released his hunting instinct for the beloved rabbit, became her "beast", and laid the foundation for subsequent inner growth. In the section of love hotel, facing Xiaochun who handed over his body to him, he still chose to retreat. At this moment, in the young man's heart, the determination to prevent carnivores from eating herbivores has not yet awakened, but he remains evasive and vigilant compared to himself, who has already shown animal nature, and his appetite is also. deeper. This is also my favorite setting. The youth's blood and sobriety beyond what a teenager should be, make people look forward to the future of this character even more.

【Haru's Law of Survival】

Haru is a character I like very much, and it is also a very controversial character. Too many viewpoints rudely flatten Haru's personality, and she is not simply judged by right and wrong. Behind the harmless, well-behaved and pleasant appearance of humans and animals, it is easier to use the body to exchange the possibility of survival. Haru's personality does not have the kind of flipping that is stimulated by the outside world. It is more a kind of resignation that accepts fate, bullied by her family, and becomes a sexual vassal. She is always more complicated than she sees, precocious and smart, Know your position very well. Some people say that haru's resistance when bullied by the rare rabbit sisters is like a warrior who defends Ruo small animals. She is indeed brave, but this kind of bravery is self-defeating. Probably no one dares to provoke her. For her, it's better to live happily in an unknown life, because it can't be changed, and she doesn't want to change. The world is just like that.

The garden where haru works is like a metaphor and the only place she guards, always sunny, and the few panoramas leave the impression of being too dreamy and unreal. She is the only one to take care of the gardening club, which is like a reserved place in her heart. For those who help take care of the garden, she is habitually rewarded with her body. She subconsciously thinks that Legacy is also here for her body. Don't worry about fate, don't care about morality and dignity, you can turn around and return to the sunshine where flowers are blooming, calm as if nothing has happened. When you put life aside and live your life, life is not that difficult.

But just like this haru, the world will never be a dark jungle for her, she doesn't hide, walks naked in it, accepts the fate of weak grass-fed at the bottom of the food chain and lives recklessly. In a sense, she is the strongest in this world. By.

I also want to say something about small herbivores. Some fragmentary fragments show the survival state of weak herbivores, such as being careful to be stepped on by large animals at all times, and the fear of carnivores caused by malignant events (fear of being followed and concerned) , with the help of social media to speak out and form a group. If you are familiar with the relationship between men and women, the author's insight is really powerful.
