On that day, Saito was struggling to find the figure of the swordsman in the light snow, but what he found was the news of the end of the war. On the day, the sharp blade discarded by Drawing Sword Studio was found by Renwei, who was reborn from the corpse.
Isn't this Mikami-kun? My first reaction. After Yosuke Eguchi played the role of emergency doctor, the image in my heart has always been righteous and awe-inspiring, but if he is incarnated as Saitoichi, it is somewhat sullen. Sato Takeshi is an unfamiliar face to me, it doesn't matter what the face shape is, it is still similar to Kenshin when he is serious. The cross wound should be a little more shocking, a little fresher. The first time I tried my skills, the ghost-like speed was very anime-like.
See you for the first time. Kaoru girl has a kind and nervous face, which is appropriate. Kaoru is the joy of Kenshin, the new life of Kenshin, which does not need to be too heavy and delicate. The wanderer's mantra and innocent expression are in place.
Guan Liu's appearance should be the most successful, maybe part of it is because no one has too many expectations for him, so they won't be picky. But Guan Liu's interpretation is still very good, the kind of wretched, really villainous, money-oriented, mercenary face of the capitalist who makes money for the country, the middle-parted hairstyle and the protruding lower lip, the endless smoking cigar, the dog The arrogance raised with the wandering samurai, the ninjas around him and the ugly slaves in white suits are all wonderful.
Gao Hehui is more than clever, although the eye makeup is well drawn, but the charm is still a little less; the face is like water, and it is impossible to tell that she is a woman with a past. The so-called tender, that's what. But from this Gao Hehui, I suddenly felt "Ah, so there are people who understand Gao Hehui like this".
Kaoru has a lot more plays, both overtly and covertly. Before Lu Yu Fake Pulling Daozai caresses the kitten, consciously adopts Myojin Yahiko and the disguised lonely old man, all to show her kindness. But in the original work, Yahiko was picked up by Kenshin and arranged in the dojo. Perhaps the screenwriter thought that Kenshin was strong enough, and it would not hurt to reduce the number of scenes.
It was an instant to rescue Kaoru from the blade of the blade guard. If you lose your mind at this moment, you will miss what an important plot. In this short moment, Jianxin's high speed reappeared, which was amazing; the effective defense of the other side of the heart echoed the scene of the police being killed, fully showing the strength of Jianxin to the unsuspecting audience.
Speaking of strong, it is a pity that the details of being hit by a wine glass in the hot pot restaurant were not photographed. In the original book, Kenshin had noticed that the wine glass was flying, but in order not to hit Kaoru, he did not dodge, and let the wine glass hit him directly, showing the meticulousness and gentleness of the strong man. Many times it is these details that are impressive. Another omitted scene is Kenshin closing the door to the dojo and reporting his name to Kaoru for the first time, which is my favorite scene in the original book.
Yahiko appeared and felt that it was very suitable in all aspects. I didn't have a deep understanding of Yahiko originally, but after watching some Taiga dramas and "Tokugawa Ieyasu" recently, I feel different. The so-called aristocratic origin, it turns out that such aristocratic pride is rooted in his heart, he is rejected by the times, his parents have died, and there is so much sadness buried in his small heart. Such a Yahiko is arrogant, brave and righteous, but he is too upright, and the strong are easily broken, so he needs more training and protection. Therefore, he needs Kaoru, and even more because of his beliefs and dreams, he needs Kenshin.
The next battle to defend the dojo was the first time I saw Kenshin's unarmed combat, as well as other weapons other than swords. Played lightly, with the demeanor of a master. Kenshin was also imprisoned because of this, and he became attached to Zuo Nosuke, and was released from prison by Saito, who was tested in front of Shanxian and refused to be an official. The script is very compact, interlocking, and every second is a climax, praise. Kenshin's face to the powerful is neither serious in battle nor innocent in daily life, but his face is as deep as water, neither humble nor arrogant, neither flattered nor humiliated. "Even with this reverse-blade knife, I have the confidence to save the lives of everyone in sight." Da Ai.
But this scene also clearly shows that Saito walks in too much water, like an uncle walking, without the tough demeanor of a soldier or a policeman, and he also lacks the aggressive Saito-style fighting spirit and sharp eyes when he draws his sword. From time to time there is a doctor-like sympathy.
Kaoru came to take Kenshin home, and waited with an umbrella in the rain. The girl who was noisy, shouted, often bullied Jian Xin, was petulant and unreasonable, in fact, she was so kind and gentle in her heart, so she became Jian Xin's lifelong partner. Years later, in the story of Xingshuang, she was like this, accompanied by fireflies by the river day after day, waiting for Kenshin's return until she turned white, right?
"Ah, you're the one..." Megumin came out of the bathroom, covering her clothes with wet hair, she reached out to Kenshin with a slight smile, and saw Kaoru Kamiya, the "daughter of a good family" and Yahiko Myojin, the "descendant of the noble family", surprised. Mouth wide open. At this moment, I vaguely understood that Huiwei Guanliu's life was far from being as simple as refining opium. And at this moment, what are you thinking in your mind when you make a lazy and sloppy Megumi? At this time, can she predict where Kenshin's heart belongs? Do you feel injustice because you came from a "good family" and ended up like this?
"There must be a set of replacement clothes." Kaoru brought his father's clothes when he was young for Kenshin to wear, and the classic look of Kenshin in red was born. In the courtyard where the fallen leaves were fluttering, Jianxin looked up to the sky, the breeze brushed his forehead, and he closed his eyes safely. In the ten years of wandering, there must be few such pleasant moments. He has a family, but when will this world settle down as he wishes?
The splendor of Guanliu is vividly reflected in the addition of the hot pot restaurant. Zuanosuke's saber almost overwhelmed A Miao, which was so interesting. The tragic status of the gentry is once again confirmed in Guan Liu's language. In any change of times, there are ethnic groups that have been abandoned and neglected by the times. The so-called life and death brought about by wars are not just as simple as life and death.
Zuo Nosuke finally started the show. This Zuanosuke is more sensible, and once Kenshin persuades him, he will not fight, and he does not stalk him. But Zuo Nosuke is obviously a handsome young man. It's fine if the actor is older, but can't he be thinner?
Fake Drawn Swordsman kills again, bringing back memories of Kenshin. That night when the white plums were flying, he executed Tianzhu, no different from usual. However, the young Qingli got up from the pool of blood again and again and refused to be easily the ghost under his sword. He had never met such a persistent person. He raised his sword and slashed, again and again, Qingli's moaning finally stopped, he turned to leave, but the breath in his chest couldn't be straightened out, blood flowed from the wound on his cheek, and drops of bright red splashed on the white plum.
The next day, it rained heavily. He was among the crowd watching the excitement, and a slender white figure fell on Qingli's body, crying in despair.
Did the old faith shake from that rain? The only thing that is certain is that in that rain, he had no idea that the white back would become a painful memory of his life.
Seeing Kenshin cooking, will give you the urge to become a good cook. That expertise and focus, so dependable and reassuring. The cherishing of food should be traced back to the period of reclusive farming. "I'm sorry, there is no radish to serve..." What a happy and sad memory.
No matter who they are, they should long for a friend like Sanosuke. Kenshin sat with his sword in his arms (a classic silhouette image), and made up his mind to rescue Gao Hehui. As soon as he got up, he saw Zuo Nosuke coming with a saber on his back, wearing flowers and willows, and said "go together". What kind of height can this Soulmate achieve? Kaoru and Yahiko, who had to follow along, were quickly dealt with, and one prepared breakfast and bath water, while the other was responsible for protecting Kaoru and the dojo. If others don't listen to your advice, it just means you haven't found the right way. Just one sentence persuaded these two, what kind of great wisdom was this?
Next is the 2 pairs of 250 Guanliu courtyard melee. Of all the films I've seen, there are only two scenes that rival this one. One is the four good friends in "The Three Musketeers", who drew their swords in the face of a whole yard of bishop guards; the other is Heng Shashu and others in "The Legend of Yiwei Hoker" who finally faced the enemy on the battlefield. But neither of them were as hearty as this one, and they achieved such an overwhelming victory. Kenshin's normal footwork is represented by a real person, which is really novel. Zuanosuke's signature hug and fall is beginning to emerge.
Zuo Nosuke's one-on-one battle is quite funny (any battle that Zuo Nosuke participates in will be quite funny by him), and he still eats in the middle of the fight, just like the Monkey King fighting monsters in Journey to the West, which is beyond fun. By the way, Saanosuke's raw eggs are quite smooth, praise!
The grimace samurai encountered by Kenshin was too much. Just when I was expecting an exquisite swordsmanship battle, this guy actually pulled out two guns, and the bullets were as endless as in modern shootout movies, so Kenshin had to show off. A stunt that a real person can run faster than a bullet. In this way, wouldn't there be no suspense in the fight against the Grenade machine gun? Director, what do you think? Fortunately, everyone felt that the spoiler could not go on like this, so the ghost-faced warrior took out a small sword again, and let us watch a Kenshin VS Sinaimori Cangzi in advance. The handle is quite easy to use. As a counter-blade knife over the years, the handle must have played a lot of protagonists. The knife-retracting style is quite complete, coupled with the very good samurai footwork, walking posture and other characteristics, I can't help but admire the professionalism of the actors!
Saito-san finally appeared, but he was aiming at the chandelier. In comparison, Saito's sword swing is still quite unsightly, and even the simple act of putting the sword on Guan Liu's neck makes people feel sloppy. Obviously I like Yosuke Eguchi very much, but I don't know if it's dimmed under the light of Kenshin, or because I like it so much.
The plot of Blade Guard kidnapping Kaoru always feels very similar to the end of the reminiscence chapter. They are all about saving people, and they are all being forced to improve one by one by their opponents. Only the seasons are different. As the final battle of the movie, the sword-drawing style finally appeared, and the familiar Ssangyong flash was very exciting. It's just that Kaoru was lying on the ground and said too many useless words, prolonging the rhythm in vain.
In the end, Kenshin kept his promise not to kill. The reason why Kenshin was able to win again and again with his scarred and weak body, so that his body was overwhelmed in the end, was all because of his strong spiritual support. It is this spirit, this selfless belief, that gave me endless spiritual power back then. Kenshin has lived in seclusion for ten years, and it has been nearly ten years since he was away from this spirit. When I flip through the texts of the past by chance, I can still experience the feeling of being full of perseverance, full of confidence, and smugness at that time, but now it is different. Kenshin has come back, can I come back ten years ago? Have you ever woken up in a dream, ran to the door, and heard the phrase "I'm back", and felt that the years were quiet and the world was stable?
Looking forward to the reminiscence chapter, and even the TV version. As long as it is a sword heart.
