started to reminisce was really warm, the bad boy in the eyes of the teacher, the outlier in the eyes of peers, but what we do together is fun and more meaningful than other things. Reminds me of my childhood best friend who was with me, secretly exploring the adult world together when we were all wearing school uniforms.
Such children want to grow up early. I can’t wait to study, go to school and then work step by step. I want to drink beer today, watch adult movies tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, I can take my younger brother to the top of my life like the boss.
So they really entered a world full of adults.
Asheng joins the underworld, Shinji focuses on boxing, and Sachiko's husband (that quiet and beautiful man) works in a measurement company.
And they still hold the heart of a child.
Ah Sheng will be loyal to his eldest brother and vow to avenge him desperately.
But being kicked out by the winner in the power struggle, the underworld does not need true loyalty.
Xinzhi humbly accepts the guidance of each person.
However, he was maliciously induced by Kobayashi who deliberately approached him, ruining his entire boxing career. There is no reason for newcomers not to make way for seniors.
The handsome man still studies hard, works hard, and works hard in whatever line he does, and he always follows what others say.
However, it was incited and used by colleagues with ulterior motives, and workplace battles need such unknown victims. The title
kids return couldn't have been more appropriate. We have gone from memory all the way to the present. Children who want to become adults quickly, have circled around in the world of adults, approached the peak, fell into the trough, and now they are back at school - the place where they are ready to enter the gate of society. Everything is the same as before. Shinji rode a bicycle with A Sheng, and the two walked in circles on the school playground. Nothing happened and they laughed happily; the students by the window still cast envious glances, the teacher still looked down on them, and even Sachiko was pursued The way is no different from the original.
They are still children. Should it be sad for them not being able to learn the norms of society to become real adults, or should it be good for them to keep the innocence of children preciously for them who have grown up? I think the smiles of the two of them that the director portrayed at the end will make us feel the beauty of the latter.
———————————————
Of course, each of them has their own inherent shortcomings, in fact, they can’t be called shortcomings, but these things do make people stagnate.
A Sheng's "desire for success" is achieved in a different way from most people, or a quick success that does not rely on normal processes. When the school bully is ridiculed, it is better to perform mangai, and immediately go to perform mangai. After being beaten by a boxer, he pondered for three days at home and decided to practice boxing himself to become a strong man. Seeing the life of the underworld elder brother was very envious, so he finally became a member of the underworld. He is eager to "success", which aspect is not too important, this one is not good, just change another one, anyway, in one aspect, to be successful.
However, self-confidence and motivation are really good. Just do what you say and be able to heal yourself from the low tide in no time.
Nobuyuki
can't be a champion. Because he can't afford things like "being on his own" or "king over the world", which requires a person to do it. Ah Sheng is someone who can walk away majestically alone. Shinji is obsessed with the past, and he will not adapt to no one around him. After Asheng left, Kobayashi approached Shinji very easily. His tactics were not very clever. I even thought he didn't hide his purpose at all, and Shinji didn't think about rejecting Kobayashi because he needed someone by his side.
In the beginning of campus life, don't you think that Xinzhi can only have the leadership of A Sheng?

In addition, from the whole story, the development of the plot in many clips and the display of some clues are similar to "side description".
For example, the medicine that the original main force of the boxing club "Eagle" took led to physical exhaustion. Later, the medicine that Kobayashi asked Shinji to take was in the same box. At this time, everyone knew that the original "Eagle" was also ruined by Kobayashi in the same way. For example, when Sachiko talked about my husband, everyone knew that they were married.
This method may be used several times in ordinary movies. And Takeshi Kitano used countless in this movie, it can be said that most of the plot is like this. The audience has to remember and think, not the director to feed you.
I also find it interesting. But my problem is that face blindness makes it impossible to remember the identities of some supporting characters, and even too many names, and maybe some places will pass or misunderstand in a trance. Well, this one can only ask the supporting characters to have some personality, or wear a color of clothes, haha.
