It seems that many people, especially boys, have experienced a rebellious period like this when they were growing up. Skipping classes, contradicting teachers, fighting, blackmailing classmates, watching adult movies, hanging out with the so-called underworld, etc.

While watching the movie, I kept thinking of a good friend, some absurd things he once did, and even I once broke up with him because of his "bad learning". .
However, after puberty, he gradually returned to the normal track, going to college, graduating, working honestly, and falling in love seriously. The only two hobbies are photography and rock, which is not much different from many so-called literary youths around us.
We are still good friends, and those things were occasionally brought up in the past, and they were only used as jokes to make fun of.

Growth is like this, with laughter and tears, even if you just keep moving forward on one road of life, you will occasionally walk into a fork and lose your way. But in the end, even if you just grope in the dark, you can still find your way back.

At the end of the movie, Shinji asks Pony, are we finished? The pony said, idiot, it hasn't started yet.

Indeed, they are still young and have a long life. Even after some cruelty and pain, there will still be a sky of its own in the end.

This is the hope left by the director for them, and for all the bad boys with cruel adolescence.
