    (7/10) Compared with the first three works, this time there are no surprises. Although it is not disappointing, the desire to rewatch is not as strong as the previous works. Every work of Mamoru Hosoda will add thinking about life in science fiction and magic, but this time I feel that I have stopped before I go a little deeper. I want to talk too much, but it is very shallow. What left a deep impression on me is actually the scene. Not many...

    From the very beginning, I expected this story of "learning art" to break away from the traditional "higher, faster and stronger" narrative and find a fulcrum that warms humanity. It can be seen that Mamoru Hosoda has been working hard to deconstruct "what is powerful". The first half of the paragraph is devoted to this question, and the second half is a problem-solving. Through the mutual training of the master and the apprentice, they tame each other, and Ichirohiko, the son of human beings....

    Moby-Dick is the only bright spot, the rest are mediocre, and Mamoru Hosoda's overflowing girl's heart is endless. I really don't want to watch these people's education, give me a cute boy-raising movie, will I...

    The first half is beautiful, why can't we focus on the relationship between the master and the apprentice, and what the hell is the sour smell of love that is forcibly inserted in the...

    Japanese-style family affection films, after becoming a father, watching such films will make it easier to have feelings. The story and style of painting are still quite Ghibli, although not produced by Ghibli. After Hayao Miyazaki, there must be someone who will succeed him, and Mamoru Hosoda may look forward to...

    Mamoru Hosoda looking at money


    I remembered how moved I was when I saw "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" in 2006, and I can't forget the phrase "Time waits for no one".
    At that time, Mamoru Hosoda was not a top-level director, but a simple and fresh work could hit people's hearts directly.
    Of course, Tsutsui Yasutaka's original...

    "Now only Mamoru Hosoda can make people feel at ease!" I seem to want to take back the sentence I wrote...

    I just watched "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" again (for the 11th time).
    In 2009, I saw a clip of this animated film by chance, so I went back and looked up the name and watched it again. Since then, I have known the Japanese animation industry. In addition to Hayao Miyazaki, Jin Min and other...

The Boy and the Beast quotes

  • Kaede: Everyone of us carries that darkness equally. Ren carries it, and so do I. But I'm still struggling as hard as I can, even now. That's why there's no way Ren can lose to you who were so easily swallowed by the darkness. There's no way we're going to lose!

  • Kumatetsu: Kyuta thinks he can stand on his own two feet already, but really he still needs someone to help him. I may be small-time chump, but I'm still gonna help him. I'll make up for what's missing inside his heart. That's the one thing this small-timer can still do!
