Yuasa Masaki is indeed worthy of being the heir of Jin Min. In this animated film reflecting his inner world, subconsciousness and desires, he switches from his rough painting style to a photo collage style from time to time. It can be said to be very crazy, and the story itself Also as crazy as the op and soundtrack. A cowardly man who met a girl who was in his first love at the time, was shot from the chrysanthemum to Tianlinggai and died after encountering the mischief of a thug star in an izakaya. I ran to the resurrection mouth and turned back time with my memory, so I decided to live free and easy for the rest of my life, full of courage, dare to speak and act. So he rescued the heroine and her sister, racing all the way and finally crashed into the belly of the whale and climbed onto the sunken ship. On the sunken ship, it is equivalent to a world like a peach blossom, where food and clothing are worry-free, and the whole day is spent in the belly of a whale, so there is no concept of time. Everyone has let go of themselves, and when the material is guaranteed, it will continue like the spiritual realm, so my sister found the inspiration for artistic creation, boldly put on very S clothes, and splashed all kinds of paint on her body to the white cloth. The collision is very similar to the scene in "Achilles and the Turtle", probably this kind of random subjectivity creation is what all artists dream of. And Xi and Mi also have lovers who end up together. The artistic treatment of making love is simply beautiful, the butterflies in the highly saturated colors, the fusion of the characters' gender interactions, and the ultimate happiness. However, under these ideals of the happiest life of indifference to the world, human beings have finally awakened to the rationality of returning to reality. Coupled with the reality that the whale is about to die, they still have to find a way to conquer the huge waves and escape the fish maw. back to the real world. So the escape near the end, whether it was the struggle of rowing, the roar of the engine, or even after the boat broke, the desperate running of human beings to achieve the goal made me see the potential and hope of being a human being. So exciting! When I escaped from the fish maw and faced the blue sky and white clouds in the sea, I really understood what beauty is, so the font of MINDGAME is also based on the blue sky and white clouds. The circular structure, the quick cut at the end of the play, and each frame of information saturated with each character's future destiny, echoes the OP's formation, saying hi director, in fact, people are very rational!

The whole imagination can be described as unrestrained and unrestrained, and the sense of rhythm is also very strong. There is always a feeling of being hilarious but calmly thinking about shooting, cool!

We can just die here or we can try, see what we've got!
