This anime was released in April 2011, a month ago when Sendai had a magnitude 9.0 earthquake. Although the script and animation decisions were made long ago, the coincidence of this catastrophe and the theme of the film still has to be said to be. One of the reasons for the film's popularity.
The stone
of disaster The stone of disaster is borrowed from Haruki Murakami's short story Journey to Thailand. Ms. Yuezao, who was doing medical research in the United States, met Mr. Nimit during a trip to Thailand. Before leaving, he followed Nimit to visit the local witch doctor, and learned that he had a stone the size of a child's fist in his body, which had lived with Zaoyue for many years. Undoubtedly, this stone was formed in Zayuki's body on the day of the Kobe Earthquake a few years ago.
The disaster did not directly fall on Zayue, but indirectly affected her future life. After many years, the person she hoped to die is no longer important now. She even sometimes feels that it was an earthquake caused by her resentment, and the original resentment has quietly transformed into apology and regret, and slowly grew up in her body, perhaps unfortunate. The words will carry this stone until the end of life. It's just a stone somewhere in the body, which makes people feel pain, but it doesn't seem to affect life significantly. The stone changes the center of gravity of the body, and the appearance is in harmony with the body and the body.
The Stop Wheel of Time is
different from many youth-healing animes. This anime has some "anti-growth" meanings in it. It's not that growing up is bad, but that people start to reflect on what we have lost in the process of growing up.
One day five years ago, Mianma stumbled into a river and died in pursuit of Renta, who ran out of "super peaceful busters" because of shame and anger. From then on, the wheel of time for the Mian Ma family stopped. The family begins a lifeless life that repeats day after day. In the animation, Mian Ma's mother puts a bowl in front of the dead daughter's spirit statue every time she makes curry. This detail also confirms to a certain extent that after the innocent Mian Ma died, the family stayed at that moment.
After Mian Ma died, the group of friends who had been fighting Pokemon at the secret base left one by one, and finally embarked on a different "growth path", and everything in childhood began to fall apart. For the rest of the "six people" of the group of friends, the disaster of Mian Ma's death did not directly fall on their heads, but they undoubtedly became a stone in their bodies, and brought their lives with them. 5 years. The first three episodes of the TV version of the animation, as well as the two sentences repeatedly mentioned in the fifth episode "XX, it really hasn't changed at all." / "XX, completely changed." In fact, from the outside world, anyone who has passed The five years that were not written have completely changed. "The five years of disappearance" is the time of stagnation. With the death of Mian Ma and his mother five years ago, Ren Tai began to live in isolation and dropped out of school at home. For Rentai, he believed that it was because of himself that he caused the death of Mianma. Dropping out of school and living in isolation was a continuation of the emotions of the year, and it was a manifestation of the same logic as the behavior of the year. He was still alive at the moment when his face was numb and died, but he felt that everyone else seemed to have walked out of the shadows and moved on, leaving himself far behind. Out of shame, out of dissatisfaction, out of helpless resentment, he said in the first episode, "Everything has changed."
However, as the plot develops, it seems that everyone has different reasons for Dianma's death And blame yourself. Song Xueshu, whose name is Xueshu, pronounced Hentai, believes that Mianma's death was indirectly caused by his inappropriate time confession. After that, he began to hide his heart and became a #hentai# with excellent character and study. Ancheng and Tsurumi apologized to the dead Mianma because of their jealousy and prudence. Originally, all of this could have been fixed, just an apology from good friends when they got together to play Pokemon the next day. But the next day will never come. Mian Ma's death made these innocuous little malices completely sealed in everyone's heart and turned into stones. Therefore, for a single character, these five years are stagnant five years. With Shizi continuing to live, no matter how long he is, he is still the person with Shizi, who is still in the secret base five years ago.
The wheel of time began to turn again with the return of Mianma. Mian Ma returned, as a ghost, with a wish to be fulfilled. In fact, no matter what this wish was, from the moment Mian Ma returned, a group of childhood playmates became the driving force for everyone to re-turn the wheel of time in order to help Mian Ma realize her wish. In the process of helping Mianma realize her wish, her former friends began to communicate again.
Finally, in the last painting, everyone freely expressed their apologies for the year, and the misunderstanding was resolved. Ren Tai cried out of the pressure that had been suppressed for many years out of gratitude and regret. A stone stuck on the wheel of time dissipated with the wind.
