The discourse of Western hegemony runs through the whole - a classic script of cold weapons and the moral survival it represents in the turbulent situation of new and old changes, but it can be interpreted by Ami in such a flat and indifferent manner. In the imagination of the samurai, it is just a group of cavalry who still regard death as their home under the foreign guns and rely on roaring for output. In terms of character shaping, the samurai of the end of the world who should be the subject of the crusade, but instead become the background board of the protagonist American officer, the entire samurai group. It seems to be just a collection of consciousness, the existence of the atmosphere, their attitude and style do not seem so serious, and they do not give people a sense of oppression, everything is so straightforward, so gentle and so strange, a group of people under the Western cannon A Taoist guard who still sticks to his beliefs, but was driven out by the Meiji cabinet as a small force, should have a "paranoia" that is not understood by outsiders, and a sense of dignity and martyrdom that he knows the end of the road and must defend the last battle. The heroic color of this tragedy is on the contrary. It is masked by the art design with its consistent pastel tones. And the conversation between the protagonist and them for a long time seems to be just an NPC in an RPG game that can be used to interactively improve their skills. It lacks a precious sense of awe. Perhaps from the performance of Brother Tang, there is no sense of awe. The pressure from an unknown culture, he was too relaxed, and he was as familiar as he was revisiting a place and old place. It is conceivable that the confidence of this culture made Ami not afraid even in the face of the unknown, even the leader. It can be seamlessly connected to English, so that the witnesses of the entire martyrdom process at the end survived, but it is difficult to say that it is a spiritual continuation. After all, there is Ami in the final isolated place.
Hard-to-see "mystery" - It's hard to imagine how the lack of a mystical expression of another custom culture that you've never seen or seen affects the narrative of the story, where the protagonist, a samurai-style hero who has never actually seen but only heard of In the eyes of a modern Western civilized person, he imagined that when the warrior confronted in reality, it should have deeply impacted his heart. This feeling is enough to make people shudder and shudder. Personally, I think the climax is frozen in about twenty minutes. The encounter in the fog forest is the most suitable expression of the samurai style of all the plots. The mysterious sense of the samurai cavalry appearing in the fog and the momentum and rhythm of the subsequent assault are well controlled. Through the rendering of the scene , light, and editing are well presented, but unfortunately this mystery that needs to be uncovered a little to outsiders can no longer be seen in the back as the battle is over.
Inner Conflict - In the eyes of this officer who had personally experienced the massacre of Native Americans, his moral conscience and the righteousness of waging war in his concept always haunted him, and the killing he could not agree with became his nightmare, and it was just killing to his superiors The rejection of the machine's actions, these contradictions and conflict points, could have been worthy of interpretation and formed the logic chain of the subsequent change of consciousness. Unfortunately, it only flashed back a few times before it didn't play a role. The protagonist logically accepted the whole concept of Samurai Village.
Finally, points are given to art and clothing.
