A sharp white blade in a fine scabbard

As the successor of the three major migrant workers, "Blade of Ghost Slayer" is the hottest and bloodiest battle for young people today, and is known for its excellent painting quality and excellent dynamic fighting visual effects.

Its style of painting is: elemental special effects of Ukiyo-e + thick outline of classic Japanese characters + 3D background, which is very cleverly integrated. Although some scenes will be somewhat peaceful in 3D, it increases the sense of space to a certain extent, and also saves dynamic scene shifting. A lot of painting costs.

The classic 3+1 protagonist group of hot-blooded comics: Tanjiro, who is brave, innocent and full of love, Inosuke who is responsible for gags, Zenitsu, a peacemaker who is stupid and cool, and Nedouzi, a cute and fierce girl. Coupled with the columns that represent the breathing flow of each element, and the unhappiness of the villain, the entire structure is a template for growth-inspirational narratives that can withstand the test of the market.

The most criticized part of the theatrical version of this movie is the plot, which is divided into two paragraphs:

In the first two-thirds, the rhythm of the battle against the bottom string one is quite good, and it is very comfortable to start and turn. The moment he got on the train, he entered a closed copy, and the "lord of the cave" in Inosuke's mouth also laid an important foreshadowing for the train's incarnation as a ghost. Big Brother Huozhu made his debut with a "delicious" bento, depicting his simple, straightforward and friendly life image, and then showed his strong strength by killing two fish ghosts in seconds. Then, with the smooth transition to the first layer of the catastrophe dream world, the inner world and history of the protagonist are shown in 4 dreams respectively, and Nezuko is used as the key character to break the dream, and Tanjiro and Inosuke are used as the antagonists against the next string. The two main forces, and the rest of the characters are responsible for protecting civilians. The fact that the big brother is not allowed to be the main sword here is actually intentional to hide his strength, otherwise it will not be able to show the splendor of the battle. The battle of Xia Xian Yi is divided into two stages. One is the frivolous mouth cannon in human form, which is convenient to explain its skill effects; the other is the monster form that merges into a train, which strengthens the power of the eyes to dream, and the KEY is Inosuke's boar headgear to hypnotize Neutralize and defeat it together.

Here: The protagonist group and the eldest brother's dream are still quite vividly portrayed, and the pure and thorough Tanjiro, Inosuke's crazy brain hole, Shanyi's loli-controlled madman, and the eldest brother's patriarchal family are vividly depicted!

In the end, Tanjiro protects the conductor to eliminate his combat power, and hand over the main battlefield of the next match against the string to the big brother, which is very reasonable and natural.

However, in the second third, Shang Xian appeared to fight for no reason. The reason was that he wanted to persuade his eldest brother to join the ghost camp. There was no foreshadowing and no reason. This was a bit unreasonable. It can be understood that the theater effect of the theatrical version itself requires a large-scale battle to publicize the visual effect, so that the audience can be freed from the plot and immersed in the arena.

This is the time to let go of your hands and feet to show off your skills, and it is also the advantage of the big screen, full of firepower, full of special effects, cool enough!

But because of the long battle, the sacrifice of the eldest brother did not fully pave the way for history, and he became a tool for making tears. It is a pity that this is not the fault of the animation team. After all, the description in the original comics is lacking. .

In general, this theatrical version is like a knife: if the plot and narrative are used, the first half is very much like a beautiful scabbard, with excellent workmanship and delicate lines; if you only watch the fight, the second half is like a scabbard. The knife, sharp and unflappable, with a sonorous sound, can be cool enough. If it can be combined better, it can become a famous knife... Am I asking too much.
