The evaluation of Makoto Shinkai's works has always been a bit polarized, and the audience usually has only two reactions,
one is to sleep . , The second is crying, of course I belong to the latter, otherwise I wouldn't be able to write it.
Although "Yunbi" is 90 minutes long, it can write less than "5センチメートル",
so I will borrow a little space to write it. Some formulas of Makoto Shinkai's works.
—————————————————————————————————————————
If you only look at the love line of Hiroshi and Sayuri, " The description of "Yun Bi" is actually good in this regard,
and it is also different from the general formulaic love story. Everywhere is full of Xin Haicheng's style. The
two chase after dreams and shake hands across space, which is a touching one. The climax is a moment of joy,
but it is a little helpless because the feeling of missing disappears, and it also leaves an open ending, with a bit of positive meaning in the sadness
. The love described can be regarded as Makoto Shinkai's less gloomy work.
In my opinion, "The Cloud" is a half-experimental work of Makoto Shinkai, and he tries hard to add more elements.
If "The Voice of the Stars" is used to transmit information If the time is the obstacle to separate the two,
then the use of parallel worlds as the separation between the two in "Yunbi" is even more illusory.
Makoto Shinkai may want to use this to add a sense of romance and expansion to the work, but it also becomes a The disadvantage of "Yun Bi" is that
it takes a lot of space to explain the setting of SF, which leads to the loose plot, which
makes the audience's feelings in the early stage cool down and it is difficult to re-engage in it.
The positioning of the second male protagonist Shirakawa Takuya is also very subtle, and it is also another aspect of "Yunbi" where he has a good eye and a low hand.
Tuo is also a character used to set off Haoji, forming a positive and negative combination with Haoji,
but the description of him in the play is not deep enough, and it is difficult for the audience to understand his thoughts,
which naturally reduces the tension of the script. There are too many themes that Makoto Shinkai wants to show in
"Yunbi", love, friendship, youth,
but the result is that he can't take into account all aspects, so that the theme cannot be highlighted.
The description of the male protagonist has also deleted the complicated SF part, which is a lot of progress.
But I think it's not the dull plot in the middle, but the dubbing of the male protagonist. It
was fine in junior high school, but after that, I can't express that sense of loneliness, which is a little worse than Gui Xie in "Speed 5".
Although I counted a lot of shortcomings, it is not a very sad script, but I still cry every time I read it. Is this the skill of Makoto Shinkai?

Shinkai Makoto’s work formula:
1.
The cat2. The close-up of the female
character’s feet3. The monologue
of the male protagonist4. The male protagonist who is separated from the female protagonist always has a Supporting Actress
5. Blank Time
6. Tianmen
To be honest, Xin Haicheng and Tianmen are a combination that cannot be separated. Without Tianmen's music, Xin Haicheng's works will definitely lose a lot of color.
