However, what is the style of Mamoru Hosoda, or what is the work of Mamoru Hosoda that everyone expects? In fact, this is a difficult question to answer. In any case, in my opinion, "Son of the Monster" still retains many of the advantages of Hosoda Mori's previous works, but also exposes his shortcomings. However, this is not what I want to discuss, I just want to record some of the feelings this work brings to me.
The so-called world of monsters can actually be understood as a kind of escape from the protagonist's heart after encountering life changes, while the monster Xiong Toru is a deformation of his father's image. Once upon a time, I was also a child who liked to linger in the streets after school. I always felt that there was another world hidden in those little-known corners, a mysterious ideal country without troubles and hardships. The world of monsters in the film is such a world, which opens the door to the protagonist at the right moment, so that the helpless and confused mind can be supported and comforted. Hosoda uses the image of animals to shape monsters, making the monsters natural and friendly, beyond reality but not far from reality, full of fairy tales. Time flies, children can't be curled up in the fantasy world forever, and the father's shadow can't last forever. So we see that the protagonist begins to walk between the monster world and the real world. From the moment he accepts his biological father and a strange girl, he is destined to say goodbye to Xiong Che and the monsters, because he is a growing A human being, he fully accepts his identity as a human being. The villain in the film is the exact opposite of the protagonist, forming an interesting set of contrasts. He grew up among monsters and recognized himself as a monster, but his physical reality forced him to face the fact that he was human. The split of cognition pulled him into the black hole of destruction, causing his world to gradually collapse . Through the correction and rescue of the villain, the protagonist's mind is further matured, and finally the warmth and pain are hidden in his heart. The integration with Xiong Che in the animation may be an excellent symbol. As a child, the protagonist was both unfortunate and lucky. He met love at a fork in his life, and received the kind guidance and romantic placement of Hosoda Mori in the deep alley.
It can be seen from the above that "Son of the Monster" actually tells the story of the "Son of Man". We all once had a beast within us, a source of restlessness and a source of strength. This is off topic.

The work of the fine guide is really good in terms of formal beauty, and this one also brings out the imagination of animation to the fullest. The training of the monster world, the pursuit of the ghost whale, in short, the pictures of the horses must be beautiful, and the number of action frames must be sufficient. It is also worth mentioning that the fine guide is also going to sea! (Mistake~) I welcome a guide in the rotten sea of beauty! The second male lead is prettier than the female protagonist, and there is no doubt that the love token is given away! The scumbag of the male protagonist is the rhythm of taking everything for both men and women! Therefore, fairy tales are all deceitful, the key is to look at the face! Another thing to say is that although I know that the setting of the heroine is to explain the truth of overcoming the dark side of my heart and taking a good life, this is really weak compared to the female characters who have been meticulously directed before.
