Part A:
Our life thought by "Seconds"
For most of the people who have seen it and said that there are only pictures and only a few words and only very faint, I don't want to say the word unreasonable.
Although most people have the same fun and superficial look when watching Hunter, I am only committed to allowing more people in need to find what they need to establish in works that can meet their own unknown needs. Just sticks and flags.
In fact, I really want to say, this is not a comic. But it's still based on comics. So although it has expanded so many ideas, it is still different from manga reviews. In fact, the complete article is more metaphysical, so I just want to not talk too much about it. So some words have been temporarily deleted. Although they have lost their integrity, they are not suitable to be taken out now. That's it
. It's a pity that I didn't understand it. It's a bit of an indescribable distress. Forget the
first act of Sakura
, the first two people who separated were connected by letters one by one. Some people think that "Second" itself is famous for its delicate beauty, but this is not exactly the point. Because "Second" is even so delicate that the title and the theme are "the speed of the cherry blossoms falling is five centimeters per second", if it is only delicate, it will not only be pretentious, but even make people feel that they are making a fuss and making a fuss. . In terms of love, it is known for its delicateness, and there are many delicate people. If "Second" wants to get ahead in this area, it is too ill-timed, and even greatly reduces its own positioning, then the value it contains is only hypocritical to greasy and even sensational. It's just a nonsense type of work that can't be stirred up.
"Second" is at least somewhat detailed. There are reasons why the letters were lost, lessened, and turned into more advanced short messages, until the thoughts and feelings could not be deepened and maintained through them... There are reasons.
As a girl, Mingli is the protagonist of the letter, and the content of the letter is all from her perspective. It can be seen that Mingli was very proactive and enthusiastic at the beginning and even in the middle period, at least her affection is not weaker than that of Guishu. My heart is full of memories and trivia, such as "hot asphalt roads that want to melt, high-rise buildings on the sunny side, shopping malls and subways that make people feel cold... The autumn leaves here are beautiful. This year's first I knitted a sweater the day before yesterday... I cut my hair short..." and so on, some of the clues also seemed to be random here, "Kun Guishu is also changing little by little." People can change, anyone. And because of this, the two will not get back together again, just like you and me in life, and the habit - "you will always be connected to Tokyo when you look at the weather forecast" - has not changed, this is really scary, it makes people " involuntarily". Then I thought about seeing the precious trees further afield in the spring.
Made an appointment to meet. Today, I still stopped and sighed the kitten, "What's wrong with Mimi, how lonely it is to be alone?" How could it be expected that tomorrow will be a future that is not as good as the lonely cat, waiting to satirize the protagonist with this emotion? Who can imagine the horror of time and change, matter and irreversible reality? ——The book "I read it last night for 4 billion years" also made the two of them tacitly shout "Cambrian", like "I like weird bugs, like this... The one with five eyes" Then there will be no more fresh topics in the shape of ancient creatures with signatures - who can still be like a person with an "unsound" brain thinking when he becomes an adult of material utility Meaning" Talking about a fairytale-like book at the dinner table with relatives and friends and resonating and laughing all the time?
In the face of separation, have to hurt something. In the end, at a loss, the one who still hurts himself is always the child. Only support the sadness and endure the pain alone, forget it when it gradually becomes stronger, and then no longer palpitate for the original intention of the original intention that is not worth the effort in the eyes of adults.
The snow is heavy, and the delay of the car is as unpredictable and avoidable as the countless evil obstacles set up by the world for every innocent child who has not yet been deeply involved in the world. What will happen to the childlike innocence like this in the future, just like the unease of your tree that spreads from the long-term separation... Then finally one day, no one wants to but step into the truth.
But this is not accidental. on the contrary. Just like the obvious letter is lost, the two people's thoughts are also lost bit by bit, but it is hidden in the eyes of people - and this is the result of desperately moving towards the goal.
As "time seems to have obvious malice, slowly passing above me".
This sentence applies not only to the anxious consciousness due to waiting, but should also serve as a portrayal of all subjective situations that are irreversible due to time changes.
There, Akari is waiting. Tea and rice. The waiting room is closed.
Regardless of whether the feeling is in line with the truth, eternity, heart, and soul have been realized by a simple thirteen-year-old boy? Although he is still confused about "how to deal with his heart and where to take it", the boy who "knows nothing" is very clear about "the fact that we can't be together forever in the future". What lies ahead is "heavy life (working hard for future enjoyment and struggling with irreversibility) and confused time".
However, the unease melted away in front of the blank enjoyment process.
First kiss? What is that, in today's world. What kind of beautiful myth of beauty, single-mindedness, loyalty and growing old, and what kind of covenant between mountains and seas, are not even convincing in the face of the broad coffin-covered future and materialistic reality. To repeat Lu Xun's words: Lovers are all fools, no hesitation or plan can stop them from asking three questions.
The second astronaut
"There is no way, just try to do what you can." In Hua Miao's view, people who are not confused at all are the most at a loss. The phrase "There is no more room" expresses the deepest and most profound voice of those who live in an irresistible social rhythm that gives no room for breathing and appreciation.
This is really the wisest thought in the minds of the majority and the most dangerous idea in the minds of the few.
so. Those "most" "wise", "students" and "strugglers" pursue: to numb themselves by working hard towards the goal, either to achieve the goal or to fail without regret.
Abandoning childhood, or abandoning adulthood? Is it to keep the childlike innocence forever or to always aim at the goal? Confused in the process or busy on the road? Is it to become a king who dominates his own mind, to cultivate his own spiritual fertile soil, and to disregard the advice and strange eyes of others, and then drag the heavy shell and be demoted from the throne to a life seeker? Or is there no trace of naive and pure thoughts, sacrifice will only become a stumbling block for oneself, only to enjoy the highest praise of the material kingdom for fame and fortune, and then to live in vain?
so. Those "few" fools follow: because they are confused, they can't follow the crowd and entrust their life to others at will. Even if you are working hard in an unknown direction, you must feel the stones and open up a road to cross the river yourself.
Hua Miao listened but was not confused. Volunteer into a paper airplane, carrying "what you can do" to the unknown distance.
"Because life is a lonely journey beyond imagination", especially the life of a person who is separated from others "in the real darkness, just blindly moving forward", in the end is "where to go and where can we reach"? This is not only the goal, but also the direction.
People who don't seem to be confused but are the most confused because of the passage of time, even the direction and goal of their original efforts (together with Akari) are blurred by the loss of memory. Mingli's figure is also unknown.
Confused and influenced by people who don't seem to be confused, what about people who don't seem to be confused and still have no direction, but just take one step at a time? "The sky has become higher, and the outlines of the clouds have become blurred." In her eyes, all the scenery seemed to be so different from her aesthetic planning.
How innocent and ironic! It's true that even "the outline of the cloud is blurred" has different meanings in different situations and different moods of different people. Those who were originally confused became not confused, and those who were not confused became confused.
Flying through the clouds and into the sky. "Wanting desperately to reach out into the dark cloudy sky...to find something on that far side."
Three forget the
immature and confused middle school student has become a heavy duty official with frequent appointments. Tables, chairs, and piles of books, monitors, hands on keyboards, and empty, weary people who, in the eyes of outsiders, have lived a successful life. - Efforts paid off? happy?
The wind blows away. Walking on the nostalgic cherry blossom road that I once promised with my lover, as well as the tree, the rails and the streetlights... everything is like that... and the far away that I just wanted to be together because of the separation. And another person who is close at hand...
Familiar shadows pass by...
Everything is as missed as before.
He clearly felt the urge to look back, and the car had separated the two of them as if they had been malicious in childhood. Did she finally turn back? That doesn't matter anymore. I didn't see it, but the ending was obvious.
No longer the broken steps of childhood, replaced by the breath of work and hard work, where do you go? Being in the city is full of utilitarian taste, and I have long since integrated into it. Do not. I am tired of being overwhelmed by material things. Where is a shelter?
Gone are the aftertastes of standing and marveling at the flowers falling on the ground when I was a child. All that's left is to keep moving forward! forward! efficiency! efficiency! Target! Target!
Go... go... go, just aimlessly? Where has the confidence and vigor to work towards the goal gone? Why not take it out and be complacent!
where? The natural and peaceful nature that was only revealed when you were with your tree, but now calmly talks about the future and the wedding to others. The one who is pure and single, who has always wanted to be together, who writes letters, cares, and greets, who takes the trouble to make food and drink, has something in common with the boy spirit, who is the most closely related to each other in elementary school, who can talk about one another. Mingli, who smiled knowingly when she was writing this book, was no longer her, and she couldn't even find a shadow.
I just found the letter yesterday. Can you believe it, that girl who took the initiative to send a letter and cherished and insisted on seeing off the letter and said "we'll be together" dreamed that the scene "he and I are still just children" has a lot of weight!
Yes, "all" "still" "just" "children"!
Because of "du", they can support each other and work together and resonate with their dreams;
because of "return", they have not been corroded by the utilitarianism of adults and the decay of society. How much does it carry!
Because of "just", looking at the world is not as distracting as adults and society. "Just" is a modified symbol of the word "pure", representing "original intention";
Because the "child"...is a poet, who has not been deeply cleansed in the world, so he will not be bored with the world like adults when he was young, and will not cause today's tragedy in childhood.
Don't be afraid to be numb and see if it makes your heart palpitate!
Let's shout it out one by one. These words: "all", "yet", "just" and "children" are simply the most wonderful satirical poems!
As long as "all", "return", "just" and "children", there will be infinite dreams and infinite and pure sweetness. As long as it is contaminated with the quality of an adult, it is as boring as the material and emits a copper stench!
The boy who was weak and tangled in the past is now holding a cigarette, lying on the balcony, lonely and sad in his heart, the figure of infinite memories of the past, turned around and read the short message.
Is it Christmas? The girls ran to the people to laugh like they were welcoming a noble tree, snuggled up and walked forward hand in hand. ——The boy was drinking a drink and walking on the bridge alone.
Yes, no one is responsible? No one is to blame? After all, the era and the system are the most responsible? Because everyone, including you and me, "just lives like this." Because this is just numb but not knowing, and even unable to reverse "just live", "just". Because this is the "life" and "just" that people need most and cannot do without! Life is like that, let alone anything else. And "sadness keeps accumulating" is more dependent.
"The sheets dried in the sun, the toothbrushes in the washbasin, and the historical records of the mobile phone." His hands hung down weakly. Then the empty house, the key thrown on the ground, leaning against the wall and walking on the street, I don't know how many people approaching, even if I die like this, the busy people in the city still don't change their posture The rivers are constantly shuttling through the streets and bridges in time and space, the cars are tired, the wires are full of black birds, and the back is pitch black...
"In recent years, I have just focused on moving forward, as if I have to touch things that cannot be reached with my hands, this may be What it specifically symbolizes, it can almost be said to be compulsive, this kind of thinking... I just work silently, and when I realize it, my heart that loses vitality day by day, I just feel very painful... Then one morning, I found that I had already The pure solemnity and realism of the past are completely gone.”
Has reached the limit, quit the job. In the bookstore, he turned to a page that symbolized that he was thinking about the launched exploration satellite that he had seen with his own eyes, and last night, he dreamed of himself and his lover who were only thirteen years old at the time.
"There, in the vast countryside covered with snow, you can only vaguely see the lights of people in the distance... Only the footprints we left behind when we walked, and by doing this, we can watch the cherry blossoms together in the future. Whether it's me or him , there is no confusion at all, so I believe it." It's
just that they want to be together, and the two are indeed working hard in that direction little by little, although they still know that they won't get it in the end. Studying, studying, immersing yourself in work, keeping yourself busy to cover up your confusion, and eventually numb yourself by moving forward into a person who has been completely eroded by utilitarian materials, lost his roots, lost his roots, and has nowhere to rely on? No, the fact is actually contrary to one's wishes: they just want to be together, and the two of them are indeed struggling to separate from the quagmire in that direction.
The boy was led away at the beginning, including his whole life, except that he worked hard to be admitted to the university in Tokyo to be with his lover, and even his work was also led away until the end. Change because of people, follow people, work hard for people, and be abandoned by people. The perspective of life is also dominated by boys. Although girls are starting to appear more active and affectionate, boys are the kind of people who can make a difference at critical moments. In the later period, boys are more affectionate and sadder. From the beginning of indecision and step by step, to finally quitting the job that I worked hard for, and transforming into a person who does not follow external forces and is independent, this is a very late and great innovation. Don't make fun of him, how many people around us and in the society ask their hearts, who do not accept everything and insist on their own? The vast majority of people are not even qualified to laugh at 100 steps at 50 steps.
Girls have changed from pure and spiritual to material.
The end is the inevitable result that has been sealed in the first place. In the face of such a material, utilitarian, purposeful, irresistible, incomprehensible, and unrecognizable reality and the society and interpersonal relationships formed by its system, almost no one can escape death.
Here, I also leave out a part of the author's (screenwriter's) life experience or a corner of the entire contemporary Japan as he sees it. People are overwhelmed by material utilitarianism, eager to relieve depression and seek a calm life of harmony and natural enjoyment of scenery.
I also suspect that the boy is the epitome of the experience of the screenwriter of "Second". Is it a personal idea that is conveyed through this work? That's too narrow, those people in Japan and even the whole society who were just as confused as you and me in their school days, even had the only lover who they thought was the best match for them in the world, and only wanted to be together forever and achieve. The long-cherished wish of his own ideal, but he thinks that by working hard towards his so-called goal to numb himself, he can cover up his confusion, but eventually his mind becomes numb, his soul is empty and boring, a boy who loses his ideal and loses his lover is similar. Maybe it's someone you and I that I don't know, or many people including you and me.
The adults of this era have completely lost the so-called unknown, great and desirable opposite-sex romance. This is not a social problem that can be avoided and concealed. The responsibility for sins cannot be completely pushed to the times and the system. The utilitarian nature of adults and their deteriorating minds are the root causes. The students are still unfinished products that have not yet entered the society, are not completely influenced by adults and are eroded by the unspoken rules of society, and finally have uncultivated traces that can be implanted with some seeds of hope. They still have a little budding love. The adults who want to pull out even the bud of the love of the students are really ill-intentioned. This is really the sadness of the times, the huge inclination of the system and the complete disintegration of people's hearts.
What this work conveys is not only the faint sadness of love and love, but it should also be a faint feeling of empathy in other spirits and materials, pure and complex, children and adults, dreams and reality, which are lost at the time. work.
From paper letters to short messages, from one inconvenient letter to the loss of enthusiasm that can't be piled up in a thousand. To a large extent, it is from the spirit that pulls the material to gain sustenance, to the material that overwhelms the spiritual building and collapses. The realm that the spirit wants to show and is encouraged to achieve, if interpreted with a Chinese atmosphere, the artistic conception of the atmosphere and human culture is the "Li Yu, Baoyu" style of low-carbon, process way of life and production. On the contrary, material is not only aesthetic, but also a way of life and production that is the result of human utilitarianism under the product of high-tech and high-efficiency materialism in the melting pot of large industries and machines.
Part B: The
film was recommended by a friend who guided me to watch "I Love Rock and Roll". He also recommended me baby blue by Shinichiro Watanabe. I still like the speed of seconds, but it is precisely because the speed of seconds has become Makoto Shinkai's style. , so later I watched two films and found that it was still in this style and form without the profoundness of such masters as Toshi Jin and Naoki Urasawa, and I could no longer tolerate it.
The biggest gain of the film is not Tianmen. I have passed the mood of listening to Tianmen's bgm and playing galgame. Except for the Japanese experimental rock in the 1970s, I still admire old Japanese songs occasionally.
