I recently revisited "City in the Sky". The last time I saw it was a long time ago, I can't remember when.
That impression was very weak. I don't like very exaggerated style of painting, so I remember that those pirates are ugly, especially the old woman, with a man-like face, two braids are always standing up, and wearing pink wide-leg pants, so weird~ But, This time I found that they are actually very cute~ But why are they called "pirates" when they fly in the sky?
I remember watching "Spirited Away" for the first time in elementary school. I don't remember anything else, I just remember that there was a very ugly and short old woman in a very dim room, and there were three super ugly heads jumping on the ground! God scared to death~ It seems that "ugly" things are really shocking.
Revisiting this time, I like Balu and Shida the most~
The opening scenes of "City in the Sky" are really nice.
There is no foreshadowing and no dialogue, and it is a conflict above the sky as soon as it comes up. A pirate who moves neatly, a senior military officer who remains calm in the face of sneak attacks, and a brave little girl Hida. I really like the shot of looking inside from the window of the airship. In the window, someone brought food for the girl, but she didn't say a word, ignored her, and just looked out the window. Hida's eyes have always been melancholy, but this picture is so powerful. Just imagine, she has lived alone in the country since she was a child, but she will not look pitiful when she is caught by these powerful people. She really deserves to be the heir to the Flying Stone~
The little girl fell from the sky into a mining town. Interestingly, under the cover of the night, only the little boy Balu saw the girl slowly falling. He tried to tell the master several times that "a little girl fell from the sky", but the master only concentrated on the operation of each Such a machine, did not hear what he said. It's really ingenious here. The adults are busy and hard to make a living. Only the little boy Balu has seen the secret of the flying stone~ Balu's serious and focused look at work, and Hida's perseverance in the dangerous situation just now are also very good. to portray their image.
A new day has come. The little boy Balu's cabin is crowded next to a place that looks like a chimney. It seems to be illegally built... Balu looked at Hida, who was still sleeping on the bed, climbed out of the skylight, stretched, and opened the small window Let the white dove fly out, climb the simple ladder made of bricks to the chimney, and blow the trumpet towards the town where the morning fog is slowly dissipating. Ah, this way of getting up is so good... Hida also woke up, she wanted to climb out of the skylight from the ladder, but the pigeons passed by at high speed without mercy, and the hearty laughter of little boys could be heard outside, such cuteness The details are really beautiful.
The two children hit it off, and Baloo asked Shida if he could lend him the flying stone, and Shida handed it to him without hesitation. Ah hey, didn't this flying stone cause you to fall from a height of 10,000 meters? At least be vigilant! It looks so cozy~
The two of them have a lot of love details. One of my favorites is that the two of them just landed there in Sky City. A huge dark cloud dissipated, and the city of the sky finally revealed its true colors. The fierce battle just now was both lightning and dark clouds, but here, it is like a scene of the Garden of Eden~ The two opened their eyes from the coma, and first saw a lawn with wild flowers in bloom, with birdsong in their ears Voice. Looking into the distance, it is a huge ancient castle, moss has grown on it, and the walls are yellowed, looking lost for a long time. Going to the edge and looking down, there are many forts on the lower floor. The city seems to be round. The gap between the outer city wall and the center reflects the blue sky below, like a small river passing through the city~ The white clouds are in front of you. floated by. Balu and Hida's eyes are round and round, and I am in front of the screen sighing, the city in the sky is really beautiful... The people who can build this place are really amazing...
But what I like the most is the reaction of the two. Baloo happily picked up Xida and walked around in circles, and almost fell~ They fell on the lawn together again, they hugged each other and looked at each other, and the next second they laughed happily again~ Hahaha, so cute. Really comfortable, really fun.
In order to capture the huge energy of the flying stone, the man has become crazy, and Shida and Balu have to utter the spell of destruction together: destroy the entire sky city. However, the city in the sky is a giant tree, its intertwined roots are wrapped in flying stones, and the surrounding castles are falling apart. The garden where Balu and Hida just landed is the top of the whole city, and it is not safe from crash~
They flew away together with the pirates, leaving the city of the sky, still floating quietly in the air, the robot covered with moss, still walking around with flowers in his hands and birds on his body, just like the world Alien ah~
Who will seek this cloud city again? What will he be looking for? Maybe Baru and Hida will come here for vacation in the future~ Maybe, they will never find it here again! ...
