In fact, the viewing experience is not the best, and even when I saw only 30 minutes left, I began to speculate why this story could have such a high evaluation;
I can appreciate this kind of plain Japanese aesthetics and also feel that the style of ink painting is really special, especially in the freehand scene where Kaguya in red is running on the snow, which is really full of oriental aesthetics.
But the plot is really dull
The story of Bamboo Tori Monogatari is very famous. In fact, like Momotaro, it is the yearning for flowers, birds, fish, insects, mountains, stones, vegetation and trees due to the Japanese spirit of mourning.
I thought it would be adapted into a movie with a more ups and downs plot, but the movie is always a tepid story
When Kaguya came to people, she first experienced the warmth of family and friendship in the world, whether it was ignorant and budding love
But what happened next obscured the world
Just like when we were young, we always knew at a glance who was the bad guy and who was the good guy when we read stories, but the people we came into contact with in the real world were ambiguous. The loving father forced Kaguya to be bound by etiquette to marry a prince and aristocrat. Is it the villain? He is only giving the best kindness to his beloved daughter with his understanding; are those nobles and even the emperor who are wicked only because of the rumored beauty of Kaguya's beauty? They didn't force Kaguya, they just simply yearned for beautiful people, what's wrong with beautiful things? Is a boy who grew up with him when he was a child, was injured in order to protect himself, and would split half of himself or even be afraid of his leaving after stealing melons, is a good person? He left Kaguya knowing that his status was different and soon married a wife and had children, but when he met the girl he loved again, he completely forgot his family and vowed to elope with the girl frankly. He, they, were just the most ordinary It’s just a good person, who will use the wrong method and cause the wrong thing, will cause harm to others, and will love someone sincerely and want to give her the best thing, even if she loses her life, so there is no such thing as forgiveness or not. The pain and happiness of the world are all things that are not on the moon. It constitutes a pure and treacherous human world. People who live in this world hate its ugly side and impermanent changes, but there is no one who is not forced to leave. Born of nostalgia.
Kaguya wanted to know what the world was like, so she came and went, maybe everyone is like this, so the painful feeling of being alive, maybe one day, I will laugh and miss it.
