The Garden of Words is an anime short film focused on love. It tells a very beautiful encounter...

During the rainy season, Takao, a high school student who aims to become a shoemaker, and the mysterious woman Baixiangli meet in the rainy Shinjuku Gyoen. Taking the "Many Leaves Collection" left by a woman as an opportunity for a teenager, a love story began... A 15-year-old high school student Akizuki Takao had to work for a living to earn money while concentrating on his studies. His mother ran away from home, and he and his brother lived a life without seeing the front. On the day of plum blossoms, Takao skipped class and came to a Japanese garden. In a quiet small pavilion, the appearance of a 27-year-old working woman Yukino Baixiang eating chocolate and drinking beer caught Takao's attention. The two people who seem to have known each other escaped from the troubles of the world every time it rained, and met in this quiet corner of this steel-and-iron urban jungle like a paradise. During the rainy season, their hearts gradually moved closer to each other. Qiuyue, who volunteered to become a handmade shoemaker, decided to make a pair of shoes with Yukino as a model. After the rain, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but Akizuki and Yukino were not seen in the garden for a long time...

I do not object to or accept the teacher-student relationship in real life. However, Xin Haicheng’s works depict this period of teacher-student relationship particularly beautiful. Whether it is the picture or the music production, it has a typical Xin Haicheng style. The most noticeable thing in the picture is the rainy season. The performance of the rain in the scene is almost real and more beautiful than the real. Whether it is a drizzle or a rainstorm in summer, the eaves are blown by the wind into rain, and the windows meet and leave. The raindrops let the audience experience the real rainy season...

In the beautiful rainy season of the film, who doesn't want to encounter a love that belongs to him?

    The rainfall in the rainy season is just right, the fate of meeting the pavilion is just right, the distance between sitting opposite to each other is just right, the conversation between heart words is just right, the rhythm of the summer when the bare feet are beaten is just right, the temperature of the skin touching is just right, the clear sky is hot The hot miss is just right, the identity of the school reunion is just right, the emotion corresponding to the song is just right, the strength of mutual confession is just right, the size of the shoes woven with love is just right, and the winter snow drifting thoughts are just right.
