Some people say that Hayao Miyazaki only made one movie in his life, and the name is "Our Innocence and Loss", think it is true!
To say sourly, once, our eyes were as clear as stars and spring water! How many summers wading in the shallows to pick up snails, how many snow days holding a puppy and drawing a crescent moon; I always feel that riding a broom can fly and take us anywhere we want to go; or when we walk to school on a windy day, Suddenly a young man with sword-brow and star-eyes descended from the sky, holding your hand and running together; or one day turning at a familiar intersection, it will lead to another unknown and wonderful journey... But gradually, we will no longer do this Dreams, those innocent past gradually lost. Lost in the lost way of growing up, lost in the hustle and bustle of prosperity, lost behind the mask of indifference, lost under the hat called maturity.
Fortunately, we also have Hayao Miyazaki. This lovely old man is like a magician, and can bring endless surprises every time, and this time is no exception. The plot will not be repeated, and I would like to express a little personal wish in this article.
I am not beautiful, but I also love beauty. So, so must not let me grow old after the first encounter with you. For girls, this is the most desperate thing.
However, if getting old can't be contained - then, please let me choose to leave quietly. Let us never meet again, let me always be young and pure in your memory.
But if, I accidentally intruded into your sight again - then please, please don't recognize me. "The good thing about getting old is that there are few things you can care about." Let me stay, stay by your side, stay in your messy castle, clean for you, and wait for you to go home.
If you are unfortunate enough to recognize me - then, please pretend - or just push the door open to see when I'm sleeping, I'm still dreaming about running with you hand in hand, drowning in dreams I have overcome the shackles of magic, and I still have the face I had when I first met you. I know you're a boy who cares about your appearance too, but you know what? No matter what you look like, I will love you the way I do now.
If possible, please don't have war, just let time flow out the window, we will not be disturbed. But if the smoke of gunpowder cannot be avoided, then please let me open another door and see your childhood at a glance.
If life comes back and the innocence is still there, then my dear, let us protect it well. The power of the fire demon is indeed great, but if we want to exchange our hearts, we must, must not sign that damn contract again.
If you can't resist the temptation and the wonderful future it promises you when you are young, then please wait for me, and wait for me to unlock the curse for you. Please don't doubt it, "Because I love you."
...
If you can, give me a prince, even if he is just a wayward Howl; if you can, give me a castle, even if the spider web ruthlessly seals it up stovetop.
