The reason why I chose this episode to watch is because I can always see the love between Mai and Sakuta in the circle of friends. Later, only those who understand it know this episode. Also took advantage of the winter vacation to make up for this episode.
I think one of the biggest features of this show is that fantasy always coexists with reality. In the film, the author proposes a disease called puberty syndrome, which is characterized by the occurrence of things that are difficult to answer with modern knowledge. For example, a person suddenly becomes the air, only a few people can see it, and time can stop for a day just because some people are not satisfied with the day. But these settings are not futile, on the contrary, many settings are what many people would have fantasized about when they were adolescence.
A more impressive plot is that Toyohama and Flower exchanged bodies with Mai Sakurajima, and the reason for this is because Toyohama and Flower are envious of their sister's achievements in acting, and they are always criticized by their mothers. The thoughts of the body trigger the puberty syndrome. In real life, we always envy those who have made great achievements in many aspects, whether it is the top student in the school, the campus celebrity who is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or just the same table at a certain exam. If you are better than you in the high school entrance examination, we may all sigh in our hearts and think, "I wish I were a TA". But what's interesting is that in the episode of swapping bodies, Fengham and Hua also gradually realized that the success of their sister in acting is not something that can be copied, but her own characteristics. When she becomes her sister, there are always difficulties to overcome. The difficulties caused her to collapse, it can be said that every family has a hard-to-read scripture. But Mai has always loved this half-sister very much, even if this younger sister always has a kind of jealousy towards her elder sister. At the end of the episode, Sakuta dug out the postcard that Feng Bang wrote to her sister in the cupboard, and Feng Bang realized that her sister did not despise her, but regarded her encouragement as the most precious thing. reserve. Fenghama, who always thought that no one could understand her efforts, finally hugged her sister and wept bitterly. Finally, there was someone in the world who could understand her. As a result, the body was dramatically exchanged, which should be a manifestation of reconciliation with oneself.
There is also a detail worth savoring in the film, that is, when Koga Tome is a virtual boyfriend with Sakuta, he always pays attention to the updated information on his mobile phone, worrying about what he has missed. Even if it is a cat video with no content on the Internet, it should be watched as if it were a task. Koga said that this is because he is worried that he will be abandoned by his friends and become speechless. This detail can also see an important manifestation of this film, which is a sense of alienation from the environment during adolescence, and this sense of alienation runs through the entire work.
At the beginning of the film, Mai is treated as air in the school. Even if she wears a bunny girl's clothes and hangs out in the library, no one will find out. He explained that the reason for this is because he is tired of being paid attention to by everyone. Sometimes, I just don't want to be observed. So she quit all her acting jobs and went to high school in a small town by herself. In life, we always have a rare yearning for tranquility, and adolescents especially yearn for this feeling. I always hope that I can keep a little distance from the world and be myself. However, he still can't let go of his connection with the outside world, and there is hope to return to the crowd. This should be an indelible group nature in natural evolution. In such a contradictory situation, adolescent boys find out how to deal with their relationship with the world, and they will grow up. In the film, Mai also recognizes the acting career she cherishes and loves, and returns to the showbiz with the encouragement of Sakuta. Handle the relationship between yourself and the so-called "atmosphere" in the play
This sense of alienation is not only reflected in the relationship between oneself and the world, between oneself and others, but also in the disapproval or contradiction of oneself. "Know yourself" has a special meaning for adolescents. Futaba is such a typical example. She is the president of the Science Society. Except for a few friends, she is almost a weird person in the school. She also used the equipment of the physics experiment to make coffee, which really surprised me. In the film, she also suffers from puberty syndrome, splitting into two Futaba with completely different personalities, one is emotional and the other is rational. This can be seen from the wearing of their glasses. The perceptive Futaba thinks that everyone thinks I look bad with glasses, so I changed my contact lenses. The rational Futaba thinks that wearing glasses is her own choice and has nothing to do with others, and doesn't care about it. As for Kunimi's love, the two Futaba also showed completely different personalities. In this self-contradictory situation, this kind of disease was triggered, and two selves appeared. I remember when I was a child as a document, there was always an interesting way of writing it, "two villains quarreled in their minds, and in the end the good villain defeated the bad villain, and finally gave up the seat to the grandmother." In reality, the self we encounter Contradictions are far more complicated than quarrels between good and bad villains, which is why Futaba is so contradictory that they want to separate themselves from each other.
In general, watching this film in 2021 is a relatively classic work, and it also expounds a richer connotation. It is not the kind of harem where countless female protagonists circle around a male protagonist from the surface. I remember that someone satirized the three elements of leukemia, abortion, and love triangle in a domestic youth drama before. But in fact the complexity of adolescence is an enduring literary background, and everyone will have that period and will feel the same. Not just the grander plot of the so-called leukemia, but the details of adolescence are enough to make us smile.
