Before I met CL, I really didn't know, it turned out that this is a stable An ordinary life can be so beautiful, and I would look forward to being in such a small town, climbing the same ramp in the same way, falling in love with such an ordinary girl, doing the same silly things together, complaining together, and being in the crowd of canteens together. Grab the bread, persevere for a goal together, laugh together, cry together...
CL was originally a Galgame, although it is a multi-protagonist game, but after playing the original, I am more convinced that Furukawa is the first The status of a heroine is unshakable, and what she brings to friends is unmatched by other heroines. The true "redemption" of friends has also been achieved. Only Furukawa Nagisa, she must be, because it also contains a very important part, Furukawa Nagisa's family - Sanae and Qiusheng, it is them who have made him live a single parent life since he was a child. In the later period, Pengye, who "breaks" with his father, felt at home for the first time. In his heart, Pengye was envious and jealous of such a family, and even couldn't believe it.
PS: Although Furukawa Nagisa gives the first impression of a soft girl, it is not. On the contrary, she is the strongest girl I have ever met.
If you want to classify CL, it is not appropriate to put it on "love" or "family affection" alone, and it should be full of both. In general love works, the story ends when the hero and heroine confess or get married. But CL, made a very complete description of a relationship, encounter - love - love - marriage - childbirth... The warmest part of the animation is the life after the story of Tomoya and Nagisa after marriage. Some days, I really "healed" me, that kind of feeling of warmth and happiness in my heart just looking at it, I am afraid I will never forget it in my life.
After story is indeed the most essential part of the entire CL, or it can be said that it is the real beginning of this story. The first paragraph is based on the happy life of the hero and heroine, which makes people's emotions accumulate to the last moment of the story and suddenly pours out. I felt an unprecedented shock without any warning. I don't know when I suddenly realized that I was already crying. My face is full of tears... It's not the first time I've been moved to tears, but it's the first time I've been "out of control" like this. I have always thought that my tears are a little high, but I really don't have much to do with CL. In fact, there are early signs, and you can vaguely guess the development of the story, but what if you are mentally prepared? Nagisa gave birth to Shio and died. For the description of this process, only words in the original game are enough to make one's heart break. In the animation, Jingani's animation performance of this scene is described in one word as "absolute" : Soft light as the background, the surrounding noise fades away, creating a "two-person world", the sound of the classic BGM "Nagisa" brings the atmosphere to a critical point, and the extremely delicate and subtle expression depicts Nagisa's weakness. He Peng is also extremely sad and somewhat overwhelmed by his lines. The previous emotions were poured out at the moment when Nagisa's hand slipped. This unprecedented sense of substitution makes the inner sadness disappear. Express in words. Starting with Nagisa's death, it then spirals out of control, as if being in the vortex of "despair" and "hope", almost every shot is a teardrop (perhaps a little exaggerated). The saddest person is Tomoya, but after that, his performance is more controversial.
Generally, in such a situation, a father should place his love for his wife on his daughter and take care of him in every possible way, not to mention Tomoya Okazaki, who is known as a "good man". But Tomoya in the animation didn't do that. In the work, Tomoya initially described Xi's "indifferent" attitude. I think there are three main reasons:
1. Highlight the importance of Nagisa to Tomoya, and how much Tomoya loves Nagisa; I remember that in the original work, Tomoya also had such a monologue: "Just living according to the old habits, getting up, going out to work, eating, sleeping, just repeating The movements that the body has already memorized, I have been living like this, I have been working as if torturing myself, I have been working desperately in order to forget everything... The time after work and public holidays are very long. Pain, spending money just to pass the time, if you put it into reality, it feels like everything will collapse. I hate this town, but there is nowhere to go but the town, living like a walking dead... "
It was Nagisa who made him feel the warmth called "family"; made him realize the feeling of loving someone; made him feel the feeling of being loved by someone; made him understand the meaning of trying to do one thing; made him He understood the true meaning of "tenderness" and "strength"; let him taste the taste of happiness...For a long time, on the surface, it was Tomoya who gave Nagisa support and encouragement, but in reality Nagisa was also supporting him invisibly. Zhi Pengya, and even beyond Pengya gave her support. So, in the world of Tomoya who lost Nagisa, there is no color. I can't even imagine what it's like to love someone to this extent?
2. Yi Pengye's previous performance, in fact, the author here can completely portray him as a "model father" without too much sense of disobedience. But the author did not do this, but through such an extreme performance, a special case, made a strong, gentle and responsible man suddenly transform into a man who is escapist and even indifferent. In this extreme contrast, the influence of this accident is reflected. It is not an exaggeration to say that he killed him once, so that he can't even face himself and Nagisa's own daughter again. Maybe he feels that he doesn't want to love. Don't be afraid to lose again...
3. Contrast, Bippon and his own father. Five years after Nagisa's death, Tomoya was "tricked" by Sanae to take Shio on a trip. When Tomoya meets his grandmother and recalls his father's past, he finally understands his father's pain. In these places, there is no way to endure it at all. It turned out that Tomoya's father was so pitiful. He encountered the same thing as Tomoya. His favorite wife died, and his father and son depended on each other. However, his father did not collapse like Tomoya, but he was strong enough to hold back the pain and pulled Tomoya to grow up alone. .
——I was fired countless times and traveled around. Even so, I was never discouraged. I used the little money I had to buy toys and snacks for Pengya, sacrificing all my luck and chances of success... until Pengya arrived. When he was able to choose his own life, his father had lost everything. Jobs, trust, luck, friends, all gone. Every time I think back to his father's face before, what a feeling in my heart. He is not like Tomoya, he is not so lucky, without the support of his father-in-law and mother-in-law like Qiusheng and Sanae, there is no "Guangyu" to do it again, he is the portrayal of the real version of CL.
I once saw a bar friend commenting on this episode when I was visiting Tieba: "It needs to be emphasized that this is not a tragic sensational tear-jerking. According to drama theory, all scripts revolve around setting and resolving conflicts to promote the story. , and whether it is a tragedy is often based on whether the conflict can be well resolved. This plot is a good solution to a core contradiction in the story, so it is not a tragic plot, but should be Something to be happy about. I remember someone said: the so-called tragedy is to smash beautiful things to show you. But here is just to present the beautiful things, and the touching it brings to us is unforgettable. In other words, the reason why Xi Pian is so tear-jerking is more because it has inspired the resonance of the players from the bottom of their hearts, the selfless love of parents for their children, the fetters of the family that have been passed down from generation to generation, and family as a person. The most natural emotions that come from here are vividly expressed here.”
During the period, it is worth mentioning that the father and daughter reunited after a lapse of “five years” (in fact, they have met intermittently for five years, but this can be regarded as the real first contact ), this story is so vividly portrayed by Jingani, almost every scene has tears, and every action touches people's hearts. In the Furukawa bakery, Tomoya followed Shio's figure and footsteps, looking for, although the knot has not been opened, but the curiosity of seeing each other in "five years" is obvious. After finding it, Xi hid behind the door, sticking out half of his face and looking at Tomoya. I don't know why, just these few ordinary shots, I feel that the eye sockets are already wet. Tomoya is also an ordinary person after all, not so perfect, not a saint. At this time, he is so disgusted with other people's happiness, from the look in the eyes of a mother and child with Sanae in the restaurant; from the train traveling with Shio Yelling at others "Quiet!". can be seen.
The significance of this trip is very important, it completely changed the relationship between the poor father and daughter, and let Tomoya find the meaning of continuing to live again. As a daughter, Xi gradually replaced the mother's role to heal Tomoya. To be honest, from the outsider's point of view, Xi is too cute, and Jingani also put a lot of effort into this painting performance. "The only places where I can cry are the toilet and my father's arms." Xi has always been patient, Xi has been patient for so many years, and has been here for so many years. There is no positive description of Xi crying, so when Xi came out of the toilet with red eyes, it was so lovable and distressing, but I couldn't blame Tomoya... After that, Tomoya bought a toy for Xi ( What is the mentality of buying a radish toy for my daughter). Tomoya is indifferent on the outside, but he should still care about his daughter very much in his heart. After all, he has the exact same face as Nagisa (the reason why he has been running away for the past five years is also because he is afraid that when he sees Xi's face, he will think of Nagisa and feel even more sad). Every move of the hotel can be seen.
After they arrived at their destination, I was basically in a state of "out of control" for some reason: Xi lost a toy bought by Tomoya while playing in the flowerbed, and he couldn't find it. Tomoya told her that he couldn't find it anymore, and gave it to him again. When she bought a new one, Xi stubbornly said, "It was unique, it was bought for me, it was chosen for me, it was my father's first time..." Are you ready?" He fell into Tomoya's arms and burst into tears... A song "Wish い が Ye う Place" played this plain and most real scene, why is it so touching, every cry of Xi They all ripped my heart out. . . On the train on the way home, Tomoya began to tell Shio about Nagisa. Together with the audience and the players, he awakened the memories in his mind: the reconstruction of the drama club, the 3on3 basketball game, the performance of the school festival, the graduation of Tomoya and Nagisa, The birth of Xi... Before I knew it, I had already burst into tears again, and couldn't stop crying. On this long ramp of life, the two supported each other, experienced both ordinary and moving ups and downs, and established a small family. Although the family of three has never lived together, we can still feel their mutual bondage at this moment. . . I, who always thought that my tears were high, had completely given up resistance in the face of these episodes. When my roommate introduced that it was a tearjerker, I went to CL with the heart of a challenge. In fact, when looking at CL, you don't need to do any "preparation", and you don't need to deliberately restrain yourself, because you may not be able to experience CL personally.
The story begins and ends with the dreamy cherry blossom-strewn ramp. Tomoya's heart-wrenching "なぎさ~~~!" seemed to rush up and hug Nagisa with all the feelings of the audience and players desperately. This is the most exciting scene I have ever watched, bar none!
Regardless of animation or game, the name of "CLannaD" is well-deserved. It is suitable for people of any gender, age and environment to watch, and it is a work that can touch the last piece of pure land in people's hearts. There are so many incredible things about this animation, and every time you watch it, you will have a different feeling. The ending song of the first season, "Danzi Big Family", was obviously a healing and light song when you watched it for the first time. When you watch it, it becomes a tearjerker, and its power is no less than "little palm".
I am moved by the story of this small town. I have always regarded "CL" as the home of my soul. No matter how many times I revisit it, it will not diminish the moving it brings to me. Cry like a child again and again. I am fortunate to have encountered it in my life, it made me forget all the unhappiness and troubles while empathizing with it; it made me understand the true meaning of "tenderness" and "strength"; it gave me no matter how many setbacks I encountered, even if it was only my last breath Have the courage to keep going!
