"The Future of the Future" is a fantasy animated film released in Japan on July 20, 2018, and has won an Academy Award and an Annie Award for animation. In the movie, the male protagonist, Xiaojun, met his younger sister, the future from the future (the sister's name is the future), and then became a real good brother from many wonderful adventures.
The birth of a new baby changes the situation at home.
When the male protagonist Xiaojun was four years old, his mother gave birth to his second sister, the sister's name is the future. The appearance of the future has made this home busy. Mom has become less concerned about Xiaojun and has been taking care of her sister's future, while father has been busy with housework and has no time to take care of Xiaojun.
Lonely Xiaojun can only play with his sister in the future. Xiaojun plays with toys, plays cards, and reads storybooks to the future. However, the future is still too young to understand Xiaojun. After that, Xiaojun couldn't bear that his mother was "only good" for the future, so he picked up the model train and "slammed" his sister's head, terrifying his parents.
Why has the family become so "disharmonious"? We analyze the situation from four aspects.
From the mother's point of view: I have to take care of the child, I have a serious lack of sleep, and I have no energy to take care of Xiaojun.
From the father's point of view: the mother has to take care of the child, and then she has to go to work. All the pressure of doing housework is on the father. The father still has to work, and he can't take care of Xiaojun.
From Xiaojun's point of view: Before my sister came in the future, I was the center of the family. Xiaojun felt unhappy because his parents' favor was robbed by his sister. (Children are ignorant, normal)
From the puppy Yuko's point of view: Jun and his sister have both robbed them of their position in the family, and even the delicious dog food has been reduced, which makes it unpalatable.
These four reasons lead to disharmony in the family.
Whenever Xiaojun loses his temper, the "Sacred Tree" will come into play and take him on a wonderful adventure!
The first time Xiaojun lost his temper was when Xiaojun "criticized" his sister.
After Xiaojun "critically attacked" his sister, he entered the yard crying and came to the "Sacred Tree". The "Sacred Tree" played a role, turning the dog Yuko into a human form, and the dog Yuko also called himself a prince.
Xiaojun understood from Yuko's mouth why he didn't like his sister. It was all because he was jealous of her sister, just like Yuko was jealous of Xiaojun and the future.
Afterwards, Xiaojun recognized Yuko's true identity, snatched Yuko's dog's tail, "installed" it on himself, transformed into a dog, and played happily. Yuko in human form was messy in the wind. (This is the first interesting setting of this anime. After "installing" Yuko's dog tail, you can turn into a dog)
The second time Xiaojun lost his temper, it was because his father was busy with work and did not play with him.
Because Dad has to do housework, work, take care of his sister, and pick up Xiaojun to school, he really has no energy to play with Xiaojun, so he ignores Xiaojun's request to play with him.
The helpless Xiaojun walked out of the yard again, and the "sacred tree" came into play again, bringing Xiaojun to a forest. Under the guidance of the little whale biscuit, Xiaojun met his younger sister, the future.
Here comes the second interesting setting: if the dolls for the girl's festival are not put away after the girl's festival, the daughters in the family will delay their marriage, which is calculated as one day for one year.
So two people and one dog started to collect the dolls for the girl's festival without telling their father. Two people and one dog incarnate as "ninjas", "jump left and right", "hide quickly" and "closely approach", all kinds of "ninjutsu" were used, and finally the dolls were put away.
The third time Xiaojun lost his temper, it was his mother who asked Xiaojun to tidy up the room. Xiaojun became angry and said he hated his mother.
After entering the yard this time, Xiaojun directly traveled through and came to the time when his mother was a child. Xiaojun saw the "crying" mother and went up to comfort her. The mother felt that Xiaojun was a good person, so she brought Xiaojun home to play together.
After his mother brought Xiaojun home, Xiaojun found that his mother was a bear child who was even more bearish than himself. The two of them left toys and snacks littered, and made a mess in the house. The two of them were extremely happy. At this moment, mother's mother came back and scolded Xiaojun's mother, the same words that her mother scolded herself.
Actually, my mother didn't dislike Xiaojun. I could feel her mother's love between the lines when my mother kissed Xiaojun and talked to her grandmother, but Xiaojun was still young and didn't know how hard and conscience these were.
When Xiaojun lost his temper for the fourth time, he went out to play with his father, because his father had been taking care of his younger sister and did not accompany him to learn a bicycle.
This time Xiaojun is still traveling, but he has traveled to the era of grandfather (father's father's father). In this era, grandfather took Xiaojun to ride horses, ride motorcycles, watch ships, and watch planes, which made Xiaojun very much admired. Great grandpa.
Grandpa took horseback riding and motorcycle riding as an example to teach Xiaojun that everything has a beginning, don't be afraid of failure, look ahead and keep moving forward. Later, after Xiaojun returned to his own era, he seriously learned to ride a bicycle. He was no longer afraid, looked into the distance, and finally learned to ride a bicycle.
The last time Xiaojun was angry was the most outrageous, because he was angry because the yellow trousers could not be worn after washing and put on blue trousers.
This time, it is still time travel, but it is time travel to the future. Xiaojun traveled to the time and space where the future of the future is located. This time, he got on a strange train and came to a huge railway station. It was crowded with people. Xiaojun couldn't find his way home, so he could only ask others for help. .
Xiaojun came to the strange lost and found place and saw strange staff. Because Xiaojun couldn't name his mother, father or even a relative. The staff told Xiaojun that he would be sent to a lonely place with only lost children.
In the blink of an eye, Xiaojun was teleported to a train platform, and a terrifying train drove over. After the train stopped, he wanted to attract Xiaojun to the train with an attractive force, but he failed to do so. At this time, an eight-month-old future appeared on the platform. In order to protect the future, Xiaojun bravely ran over to hold the future. Just because he is the future brother! He finally realized who he was and what he should do.
This world is so wonderful. Grandpa's will to survive in the war saved him and gained a new life. Grandpa's brave confession has reached a love. Grandma too deliberately conceded defeat in the running competition, and in disguise agreed to Grandpa's courtship. After that, there will be grandparents, grandparents, parents, Xiaojun and the future, and then there will be endless little things. The future is shaped by such a small thing.
Finally, sum up the reasoning that this anime movie wants to express.
Everyone has everyone's troubles, don't put pressure on others when others are troubled.
Not everything is what I think, just like my parents don't just love my sister.
Many decisions in one's life will affect one's life.
Small things shape our future.
Everything has a beginning, don't be afraid, look ahead and keep moving forward.
Think about things from someone else's point of view, not just yourself.
