After looking at the bland content, I understood the title "My Neighbor Yamada-kun". It tells the plain story of the Yamada-kun family's life. Perhaps only the Japanese can make such a simple daily life into a movie, and appreciate the poetry from the simplest life. But it's the usual story that is so heartwarming. I am used to seeing the magnificent life of princes and generals, and I look back to see my dull life again through movies.
How can there be so many major events in life, one or two hearts can't stand it, and if they happen one after another, why don't you ascend to heaven in advance? The real life is like the daily life of Yamada-kun's family, a working-class father with a bit of machismo, an eccentric grandmother, a lazy housewife mother, a son who is in early love, and a daughter who is watching the fun. The noisy family is like a true reproduction of their own family.
Life is not perfect, but fortunately, this family is open-minded and happily spends a stumbling and stumbling life amid the noise, turning a little contradiction into a joke. The haiku in the movie played the role of the finishing touch, making the original simplest life present a poetic and Zen feeling.
