Impressed by the maker

One of my classmates said this; if I don't watch this film, I will regret my life.
So I think this film must be watched no matter what, after all, 24 frames are also highly recommended.
After watching it, I was still a little disappointed. During the period, I wanted to fast forward at different stages, but I can see it when the animator drew these. I drew the animation that made people want to cry, but I still held back and didn't move.
Armed animation, whether it is original painting or animation, must be a very difficult process when hand-painted, it can be said to be terrifying. Therefore, the worship of this film is really limited to its technical part, so it will definitely be despised by everyone who likes bones.

Of course, there are still many advantages of this film. First of all, its soundtrack is very good. It is very similar to the feeling of a blockbuster, such as the brave heart, etc. Even if the picture cannot move people, or just listening to the music can immerse the mind in the story, Many of these kinds of soundtracks play such a role, and there are also very prominent drum beats in fight scenes, which are also very imposing. The final warm-blooded atmosphere is still very good.

Then there is the design of the film tower, it is called the altar or something, the circular staircase is quite modern, and it is also more thrilling, and it is a little flustered.

As a martial arts movie audition screen, the sense of oppression is very popular.

Needless to say, the motion design is not perfect, but the animation can be done like this several times.

The performance of the seiyuu is very good. Yamadera Hongichi is a very famous seiyuu in Japan. The role of Luo Lang makes his performance very cool, and it is also cool to speak Chinese.
Nagase Tomoya and Chinen Yuli, who tried dubbing for the first time, also performed well. Nagase's performance can be said to be very professional, and her voice is magnetic and gentle. In addition to the lack of emotion, the Chinian children are also in place, except that the number of words is a little too fast.
The two of them are too cute, so I won't talk about them here.

The shortcomings of this film, the arrangement of the first script is unconvincing, as a plot control, such an original story is not very exciting, of course, it is also because it is an original story, the characters have no characteristics, and it feels very ordinary Japanese animation image, Luo Lang's character setting is very embarrassing, very similar to someone's feeling. Takutaro is not cute enough as a shot, and the clothes he wears are very strange.

The tones are not good-looking and not uniform enough. The background is made of 3d, and the 2d background should not be such a color.
The characters are suspected of being blended into the background and are not prominent enough.

The visual impact of the screen is average, and the sense of speed is there, yes, but it is not bloody enough, not beautiful enough. I didn't see the picture I wanted to see.

Maybe it's because it's a big production. I said that it feels like a big film, but in fact this film is not in this category. There are several places in the film where I listen to the soundtrack of a blockbuster, and I watch it with great contrast. Flat picture.



To make a B-pole movie in animation, it may be that I am too harsh and have poor appreciation ability.

But the most touching thing about this film is the group of staff behind it. How did they challenge such an animation? They admire their love and dedication to animation production. I was deeply moved!

    2D samurai animation. There are several masters fighting bayonets, how to stab them. Fortunately, it is limited by the animation form, so it will not be very bloody, the action design is good, and the duel part has momentum. The soundtrack sounds a lot like Lao Mouzi's father and mother, but unfortunately the plot is a little thin and the explanation is not clear enough.
