Metaphorical Rhapsody

finish the flower

Xiaochun is too inferior, inferior to the bones.

And there is only one reason for her low self-esteem, she is a weak herbivore, not only a herbivore, but also a weak rabbit. It is for this reason that she desperately wants to find a support, and this support is a man, and the capital she can get is sex.

And in order to hide the inferiority complex in her heart, she showed that she didn't care about many things, even the things she could care about. Because she can't tell which ones should be cared about, if some things are concerned, conflicts or even fights occur, and eventually she will be forced to face the fact that she is a weak herbivore, and she will be hit both psychologically and physically.

This phenomenon is actually very practical. For example, many people feel inferior because of their appearance or appearance, which is a natural reason.

I think that if you know the world enough, you will find that appearance will certainly bring you advantages, but compared to capital, it is really not a bargaining chip that can be used on the table. Of course it is not a deficiency, but there are many ways to make up for it, and it is not enough to need inferiority.

Especially girls, look at the national leaders in the world today, no one has reached a high position by virtue of appearance. If you have problems in this area, remember to move forward and turn negative emotions into strength.

Legacy is also very inferior, but his inferiority comes from his natural introverted personality. When he encounters setbacks, it is easy to feel sorry for himself, to reflect on himself, and to think that he is not good enough in a certain area.

So in fact, these two are really suitable for each other. Legacy found the courage to protect someone in Xiaochun, and Xiaochun found a strong arm in Legacy.

Is this love? Without this animation, there is no God's perspective, no knowledge of Legosy's psychological activities, no knowledge of the dialogue between them.

Legosi will give the impression of being introverted, shy, and would rather suffer when confronted with conflicts. Unlike a man who dares to protect others, Xiaochun is a woman who has relationships with many men, has low self-esteem, and likes to escape.

We hate these two fringe people who don't belong to mainstream values ​​on blind dates, friends gatherings, or whatever.

But this is love, even if others are cold-hearted, it does not prevent them from getting warmth from each other.

…………………………

Episode 9

Xiaochun is in danger, should you save it or not?

If we could choose, we would definitely believe that both Legosy and Louis would save, but in the end, Legosy chose to save because of their different positions, while Louis chose not to.

Morally and personally, of course Legacy was right. The courage he showed in the face of the Lions, his willingness to put himself in danger for Xiaochun, all made us feel the warmth and love in the world.

But the question I want to ask is, does the world operate according to moral and personal emotional constraints? The Jewish concentration camps during World War II did not meet the moral requirements of human beings, nor did they meet the demands of personal emotions, but they still appeared and became the darkest stroke in human history.

Therefore, morality and personal emotions can only be people's hopes. They have no role in mandating and regulating people's behavior, and many times they cannot make things develop for the better. What we see as brave behavior by Legacy is the possibility of failure (a wolf against a group).

Of course, in this story, the audience will naturally take the position of the weak, and they have already regarded themselves as Xiaochun in distress. Of course, they hope that someone will come to save them. Compared with Louis, no matter what the reason is, there is always a glimmer of hope for Legacy to choose to save, which is 10,000 times better than not saving Louis.

The above point of view is the choice of most people, and it is easy to understand. Now let’s talk about Louis’s point of view that we usually don’t understand. What does Louis want to do?

Louie's adopted past, Louie's hesitancy in the face of the Live Food Catalog, is not the point of what I'm trying to say, and I think these pasts are just there to make Louie's icy choices seem a little more helpless, more It is easy to be forgiven, this is a perceptual need, no more than a decisive role.

In fact, without these pasts, if Louis was a purely rational person, he would probably have made the same choice, and what was the purpose of his choice?

Build a world of false peace with "story". This "story" is that carnivores and herbivores can live together in harmony in the past, present and future.

The mayor pulling his teeth and pretending not to be aggressive is part of the story; the law that carnivores can't eat meat is part; the Beastars' ethos of bringing peace to the world is part, and so on.

But more importantly, under this "story", the hidden black market, carnivores are actually secretly eating meat, and it is also part of the world that keeps the surface bright.

And Louis, who wants to be a part of maintaining the surface of this world, if he wants to be one of them, he must accept the fact that carnivores are eating meat, and then his problem becomes that he can eat meat, but not Xiaochun Okay?

Of course, if he was already on the Beastars position by this time, or not relying on his father, this need could definitely be met, but it's a bit selfish and hypocritical.

In fact, just like Legacy, even if Xiaochun was rescued, our idea was a little bolder. If the lion group was lost by either of them, would the carnivores in this world not eat meat? I want to eat, there are no Legacy and Louie in many places, there is no one to stop them, and I want to eat meat.

This is a structural problem, and it has little to do with the individual good and evil in it. If I were Koharu, of course I would love Legacy who saved myself, but I don't blame Louis either, so Legacy would be a lover and Louis would not.

So the most essential reason for this problem is that they have a desire to eat meat. Without this desire, all the conflicts in this animation would not exist. Even with a good heart like Legacy, he wants to eat meat, but his morals are unlucky for him to eat meat, and he also tries to restrain himself, so we like him.

How to solve this problem requires a higher perspective, more extensive research and analysis, and more precise targeted changes. These complex and delicate work, based on this fictional animation, are really of little value. Let the author think.

Really want to say, artificial meat understand? ? ?

Episode 8

I have always been looking forward to the extension of the story to a larger perspective, focusing on the underlying logic that the animal world can run on, but it seems that there is not much extension in this area. Since the main line of the story is going in the direction of love, then Let's talk about love.

Juno likes the strong senior Legosy, Legosy likes Xiaochun, Xiaochun is attached to Louis, and Louis regards Xiaochun as his lover.

The relationship between the four protagonists is very ordinary in any love drama. But in love, there is always a dilemma to make the hearts of the two closely fit together. For a long time in love dramas, in order to give people a sense of freshness, they have developed different environments and dilemmas such as law, war, campus, etc. , but one of them is a very sensitive type that has rarely appeared on the big screen.

Here the author plays a borderline ball between love and ethics through the fictional animal world. We have rarely seen the cross-species ethical love between wolves and rabbits, and we find it novel and exciting. It is usually difficult to be rational enough in love, but since ethics are involved, you must ask yourself the classic question: Then what?

Take the recent romance drama between brothers and sisters in Japan as an example. We all know that consanguineous marriage will cause great harm to the health of children, so it is explicitly prohibited. There is a wall of pain in front of it, so it is mandatory to This kind of affection disappears at the very beginning.

Judging from the current overall worldview, since the reason why Louis and Xiaochun cannot be together is because Louis has a family business to inherit, not reproductive isolation, then I tentatively think that in this worldview, the reason why wolves and rabbits are together is very strange , just because one of them is herbivorous and the other is carnivorous, and reproductive isolation is a non-obvious problem in the worldview of ordinary people.

Since the setting of the whole world is fictional, the audience can accept the setting of the wolf and the rabbit together, as well as the setting without reproductive isolation, without rationally deconstructing whether this setting is reasonable and logically? It makes sense. In short, Legacy is very lovable. If you fall in love with Xiaochun, you will fall in love with it. This is an anime and it is not a real wolf and rabbit.

But that's not what I meant to say.

What I want to talk about is the topic of going out of the circle. Just imagine that you haven't watched this anime, and you don't have a lot of "settings (carnivores can't eat meat, no reproductive isolation...)" in your mind. One day, you suddenly saw a person holding a figure of a wolf and a rabbit kissing. What was your reaction?

Because the concept of setting is full of animation, many works are based on a setting. Your reaction is likely to be the society's reaction to the "two dimensions": why? Why can wolves and rabbits be together? Why are you dressed like that?

Because the "setting" is separated from many laws of the real world from the beginning, and the real world and the setting world cannot be connected by logic, it naturally causes a gap in understanding between inside and outside the circle.

Even if you don't like it, there are indeed some outsiders in this world who don't like this way of thinking very much, because there are real parts in the chain of logic (Legacy wants to eat meat) and false parts (Legacy doesn't. willing to eat meat), you cannot deduce a result from these mixed arguments.

And we are doing it. These works have indeed affected the world view of many people. Who can guarantee that people who have watched this show will not feel so slightly when they encounter a wolf and a rabbit in the real world next time. Si's cuteness?

The question is, what is cute for a rabbit that is about to be eaten?

…………………………

Episode 7

I'm going to try not to love too hard by drinking this colorless, odorless, pure water.

Just imagine, if an introvert in your life suddenly becomes friends with an extrovert, although it is acceptable, but you will not feel that the two people are very different from the bottom of your heart. It is amazing to be friends.

But we have no doubts about the fact that Legosy likes Xiaochun, although they are different species, although Legisi is introverted and simple, and Xiaochun is complicated and scheming, although they are separated by a whole ocean of distance. Although many feel that Legacy is in love with the wrong person.

But we never doubted whether Legosy liked Xiaochun, because there is no doubt about it, it is very likely to happen.

Love is a wonderful thing.

Most people think that Legacy and Juno are a good match. A gentle senior meets a cute and simple junior. Many romantic TV dramas are based on this kind of character setting. Of course, this is also a kind of love, but Legacy may And will not choose this easy and sweet love.

A big reason is that the two of them have different "emotional weights".

The desperation that Legoshi exudes at the end of episode 1 is very different from the desperation Juno has when he is being bullied. Juno is his own despair of being "abandoned" by the world (being bullied and excluded by others), but Legacy is "giving up" his own despair (yielding to his long-repressed bestiality). Obviously, giving up on yourself is a bit heavier than giving up on yourself in the whole world.

It's really hard to find out why Legosy likes Xiaochun, and of course he doesn't know it himself. Unlike Louis, who is afraid of loneliness and wants to have a bed partner at all times. Unlike other people, I think Xiaochun is cute and can satisfy his sexual desire. It's not because of the looks, or because the personality is similar to himself.

If I had to guess, I think Legoshi felt that Koharu's "emotional weight" was the same as his own, and that was an aura that only those who gave up on themselves could exude. This kind of breath made him curious to see her, and made him want to protect Xiaochun.

It's just that this kind of "emotional weight" is too heavy, it doesn't need to exert force deliberately, it is more forceful than Juno's love for Legacy, so when he encounters setbacks (seeing Louis and Xiaochun's intimacy), his reaction It's anger, not jealousy.

Although Xiaochun says she understands Louis, she still hopes to get love from Louis, but if she shows a little tendency, Louis will definitely reject her (in order to inherit the family business, I have a fiancee. You also said that, you understand Bar).

The love that Xiaochun wanted, Legacy was able to give her. But these two people are different from most people. Most of us are first screened by appearance, then by occupation (for example, all students), then by income screening, and also by family... and finally get to know each other through getting along.

Although there are many screenings in the front, they are not complicated in themselves, they are all manual work. And for students, these screening conditions have been automatically completed at the time of admission, and the next step can be carried out just by looking at the right eye.

But Legacy and Xiaochun failed to pass all the above screening criteria, and went directly into hell mode, "I like your soul" but we were separated by "the ends of the earth".

We all want to love hard, find someone we love the most, and be attracted by "only enough to love one person in a lifetime". But such luck is rare, and most of the time we fail. If you love too hard when you fail, the wound will be deeper.

The road is long and long. If you try hard to love, if you are injured, you will use all your strength to heal. Life is short, don't give up easily.

Then again, it turned out to be a love story.

Episode 6

black market

"A black market is a market that is formed illegally without government approval, and is characterized by the trading of commodities that are not allowed to be listed, or secretly buying and selling at prices higher than the open market price.

Since this animation is bold, as an audience, you should also keep up with the rhythm and talk about the black market of sex.

Whether it's not acknowledging the nasty black market, or wanting to kill it by denying it, or never touching the topic. But if you think about it, we can't deny that the black market for sex has existed since ancient times. There are as many poems about fireworks and Liuxiang in the Tang Dynasty as there are poems in the Song Dynasty.

The black market is also a type of market. The driving force behind the existence of the market is demand, and the reason for the black market is that society does not accept it.

don't accept it:

The reason why we can't accept it, after all, is that its appearance will harm our interests.

Although with the opening of society, more and more young people have an open attitude towards sex. But when a young man is old enough to form a family, even from a selfish point of view, he can have sex with a third party, but the other half absolutely cannot.

This is not to acknowledge such selfish values, but to emphasize that maintaining sexual fidelity is the most universal requirement in the family. Because sex and love are often linked together.

The most common relationship in our society is the family relationship, and the most important cornerstone of the family is love. Because of love, which is higher than interests in our concept, we can safely hand over our life to the other party. The most important feature of love is one-to-one, and the sex that is connected to it, our requirements for sex are also one-to-one.

Betrayal of one-on-one sex is infinitely close to betrayal of love, the cornerstone of a family. On this cornerstone, all the communities of interests that we have built, the common house, the children, the mutual emotional support, the big family behind the two, etc., all have cracks.

need:

Sometimes the world is so helpless that in order to explain why we don't accept it, I have to write a few paragraphs on it, and I am afraid of being too concise or too vague, or too long and uninteresting. And it only takes a simple sentence to describe the needs, because people have desires, end, and no one does not understand it.

Needs are best explained clearly, but they are the most difficult to solve. Just like Legosi has a desire to eat meat, suppressing desires is not a good thing. Toys that I didn’t play with when I was a child will buy a lot of toys when I grow up because of lack of psychology. Not to mention sex, the social problem caused by suppressing it is likely to be the rise of sexual crimes. This is a problem that gov needs to weigh.

For most people, there is no need to be too pessimistic about the need for sex. Some women will say that men do not have a good thing, but believe it or not, there are differences between people. Some people like to play extreme sports, they can get a lot more pleasure from it than other places.

There are people in this world who don't have that much desire for sex by nature, or they are born to value sex based on love, they get more pleasure from a relationship than a sexual relationship, their time Filled with the peace and warmth of the family. Or, like Sheldon, he gets more pleasure out of the scientific world than anywhere else.

What may be more worrying is whether you can find those little cuties out of the crowd. This is a very complicated matter, and as I am not an expert in love, I can't come up with a person-watching technique.

Then we will learn the first lesson with the panda psychology expert, Legacy's love based on carnivorous desire.

…………………………

Episode 5

In fact, I really like the character setting of Rabbit Xiaochun, mainly because of her complexity.

The result of this complexity is that people who like Koharu Rabbit will love it, and people who hate it will hate it, unlike Wolf Legacy and Deer Louie, who have mostly positive reviews.

This phenomenon is a bit like the current star chasing. The star who is held in the hands of his fans becomes the appearance of everyone shouting and beating out of the fan circle.

The reason for hating Xiaochun is justifiable. No matter male or female, they can dislike this woman because everyone can sleep. On the other hand, a rabbit who instinctively trembled because of fear while eating with Wolf Legacy, a rabbit who was beaten in two episodes of the current five-episode animation, not to mention that Xiaochun didn't appear at all most of the time. She deserves a mercy.

The big sword held in the former's hand is moral, and if it crosses the line, the sword of morality will behead it. The shield held by the latter is a popular behavioral analysis in the West. If an adult commits a crime, it is likely to be caused by his childhood family and growth environment, and he cannot be blamed entirely.

I tend to think that Xiaochun's nature is good, just because she loves flowers and plants, because she never asks men to help her take revenge on those who bully her. Even if she is a wolf, I believe she will not hurt others.

But she did do something wrong, or something that was contrary to social values, and morality condemned her. No matter what her reasons are, no matter what she is hiding, no matter what her nature is good or bad. The main function of gossip is to omit the process and leave jaw-dropping results.

So Xiaochun was alienated, bullied, and isolated. In the face of these punishments, she chose to "don't care". This kind of indifference can be seen in many foreign TV dramas that are wasteful and mourning. sleep with men? not give a damn about. Being bullied and acting like they don't care. Even being eaten by wolves? She didn't care either, and even excited Legosy by running away.

Judging from the direction of this story, it is possible to develop a love triangle between Louis, Xiaochun, and Legacy. Of course this isn't a love story, so it doesn't matter how you write it. I know that everyone likes Legacy, a shy and kind-hearted strong man. I hope he will become a hero in the end. The hero Legacy likes Xiaochun, so let Xiaochun be saved.

But I have a different idea. I think the labels on Legacy are: shy, kind, and strong. Among them, the strong is the most important. He is a wolf, so he can become a big hero.

If you remove the strong man (carnivore) and replace it with a shy and kind herbivore, you may be surprised to think that the character of this label is the innocent sheep Tim in episode 1. The author has told the audience that his fate is to be kill.

I don't want Legoshi to save Koharu in the end, that shows that the natural physical advantages of carnivores still dominate the world in animation.

Of course, this is looking at things from the perspective of God. If you always stand on the commanding heights of morality, you will feel cold. So from Xiaochun's point of view, I hope she chooses Legacy, who is a kind, shy and strong man, who can not only protect himself after taking it for himself, but also be able to harass him recklessly.

…………………………

Episode 4

When commenting on the end of episode 1, I was worried that the follow-up to this anime would be as good as episode 1, because I found that the excellence of episode 1 didn't come from the story.

In fact, the story of Episode 1 is not complicated. In short, it can be summarized as "Beastly Outbreak". This story can be heard in a thousand versions from a thousand people, but why is it so fascinating here?

Its excellence lies in the following points:

1. The tension brought about by Wolf Legacy's mental weakness and physical strength

2. The tension brought about by the contrast between Rabbit Xiaochun and Wolf Legacy

3. Excellent music and picture performance (it's not that the picture is beautiful enough, but the manifestation of blood congestion when Legosy's bestiality erupts)

4. This is a more complete story

The first three points will not be elaborated. Regarding the fourth point, if we take out episode 1 separately, you will find that episode 1 is like an independent story, but the creator's purpose is not to create an independent story, so it is still There are some forks left (some of Deer Louie's plot is part of a larger plot and doesn't fit well enough with this bestial outburst).

It feels like the story is 80% done, but since it's well-crafted enough, this little story is good enough.

This short story is full of details such as "the blood when the animality broke out", "Regusi's warmth to his friends", "the dead Tim's pure love", "Xiaochun's silent enduring of bullying" and so on.

And in the final picture caused by these details, Legacy failed to suppress his beastly nature, Xiaochun caught himself being bullied, and both of them finally chose to give up.

This abandonment broke out after Legacy knocked down Xiaochun, and they were both waiting for their fate to judge them. Legoshi's mentality is that since the animal nature wants me to eat a rabbit, then I will eat it. And Xiaochun's psychology is that he can't resist the bullying anyway, so he should just be eaten by this wolf.

This kind of abandonment pervades a deep sadness, like the haze lingering in the square in the final picture of episode 1, wrapping me in it together, hooking up the memories of giving up that I have thought about thousands of times stand up.

In the next three episodes, the story itself has not changed much, or the quality of the story is the same, and the characters in the story are also facing difficulties as the plot unfolds, but their emotions have not gone off the screen.

To be specific, in Episode 4, the mountain "fractured, ill-willed tiger" that Luluy is going to climb over may be too short, and the tiger's little thought and tricks may not be so worth it Climb hard.

…………………………

Episode 3

wolf and rabbit

Lu Xun once commented on Dostoevsky: It is to interrogate the hypocrisy below the truth, and then to interrogate the truth below the hypocrisy.

At the beginning of this episode, several animals tortured the hypocrisy under the real rabbit Xiaochun (super cute, beautiful and clean) (dating with many animals), while the wolf Regis tortured the real under the hypocrisy (she raised flowers with love and care) , and also said that those flowers are her own children, she may have many difficulties).

The truth that Koharu tortured was that Legosy did not have the same thoughts as other men, and he would run away unlike other large animals. They both see each other's parts that others can't, and they become special people in each other's eyes. They start to be a little bit like Beauty and the Beast, and they are moving towards the love line.

But the reason why Xiaochun is so open about sex is still wrapped in a veil. There is an explanation here that rabbits are prone to estrus, so Xiaochun has such behavior. Although this explanation is reasonable, it is actually a bit of a causal inversion.

We all know that real wolves have only one relationship with rabbits: eat and be eaten. Therefore, these behaviors of wolves and rabbits in the animation are human behaviors from beginning to end, but each type of person is put on a corresponding animal mask. In the author's mind, the heroine's behavior is similar to that of the rabbit, so the rabbit becomes the heroine.

For sexually open behavior, the rabbit's indiscretion is only a metaphor for the behavior, but not the cause.

deer

Talk show actor Li Dan once said in an interview that he is the "social reality" of his good friend Chizi. Whenever Chizi got emotional and felt that talk show actors should not shoot some strange commercials, Li Dan put the money on the table, and then told Chizi whether to shoot for the money, and then he did it.

Deer Louie is the "social reality" of this animation.

In fact, social reality can also be said to be the basic rules of social operation. In this animation, there are two basic rules that guide the behavior of all people.

1. Animal-based eating of the weak

2. Laws for the peaceful coexistence of carnivores and herbivores

Rule 1 is understood and fully accepted by everyone. But rule 2 is different. Why should carnivores and herbivores live in peace? because of the law. Why is there this law?

In a sense, Louis is part of why this law exists.

First, let's look at what Louie did.

1. It is a perfect image in front of people and is welcomed by women (behavior, voice, eyes, every detail is proficient),

2. He is extremely strong in the back of others, suppresses others in terms of momentum, and even shows a vicious side (a goat who does not remember his lines in the drama club has a ferocious face).

3. He has extremely high demands on himself. Even if he is injured, he must show a perfect image to the audience in the drama performance and become a popular actor.

All in order to be a beastar (the responsibility to lead the school, beyond the discrimination and terror in this world). To fight against the animal power in the body of the carnivores represented by Legacy, the method used by Louis is to make himself a star, a beastar, and finally a spiritual leader.

When you become a spiritual leader, you have the ability to participate in the law, and you can keep the regulations that carnivores can't eat meat.

It is very interesting that Louis understands the reality of this society, and he is always teasing the animal nature of Legosy. Why is it?

…………………………

Episode 2

In addition to adding new elements to the story at the end of this episode, the previous content is repeating two things.

1. Construct the world of this animal, such as eating only vegetarian food, such as a dog almost stepping on a squirrel. Because of these behavioral logics, these animals can survive together, allowing the audience to believe in the rationality of the world before they can believe in the rationality of deeper contradictions.

2. Show and strengthen the core contradiction of the whole story.

Wolf Legacy has a strong body, but his mind is extremely weak. And Rabbit Xiaochun is just the opposite, with a strong mind and a weak body.

For this contradiction, the author deliberately set the scene of sunlight and darkness. As long as it is under the sun, whether it is behavior or language, Xiaochun can obviously suppress Legacy. You can expect that as long as Koharu speaks, Legosi will definitely listen to her.

But when it comes to dark scenes, whether at night or in the gardening department at the end of the episode, Xiaochun obviously becomes controlled by others. Legacy's choice Koharu can only accept.

Judging from the current state of the two episodes, the character of Legacy is still relatively weak, and his core contradiction is his inner weakness and physical strength. Fortunately, he has a strong body, and the mainstream represented by Louis accepts him, so there are not too many points of conflict.

As for Xiaochun, there are many conflict points. The male characters like but don't love her. "Approach me without authorization. Once you find that it is different from the fantasy, pat her butt and leave." And men's liking for Xiaochun makes the female characters feel that they are left out, so they are jealous and even bully Xiaochun for no reason.

The result of this environment is that Xiaochun is unhappy with both ends, taking care of the gardening department alone, often being bullied, and protecting himself with aggressiveness. So she has trained a heart that is extremely resistant to pressure and the ability to make choices rationally.

At the end of episode 2, I mistakenly thought that Legacy was interested in her body. Although she refused in her heart, she took off her clothes without any resistance. The skill of her movements made people feel distressed. And he comforted Legacy, "It's okay, even if it's rough, I'll enjoy it."

The reason why she made the choice to undress so bluntly must be the past experience telling her that this is the only way to do it. Are you disappointed with men? Or since you can't refuse, why not accept it happily?

Her heart should be a wasteland!

If the author is kind, he will let Legacy plant flowers and hope in her heart, and this hope will in turn appease Legacy's animal nature. I hope so, after all, from the end of this episode, there is a possibility of playing cards out of common sense.

…………………………

episode 1

People like dramatic conflicts, happy friends in romance dramas, quarrels between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in family dramas, and wits between police and bandits in detective dramas. These are only superficial, these conflicts will have different stories in different times and different time and space backgrounds, but the essence can be summarized as the conflict of rights, the conflict between reality and ideal, and the conflict of human nature.

People like imagination, so creators often structure these conflicts and use metaphors. For example, the relationship between the strong and the weak can be compared to a wolf and a rabbit. For this reason, outside the mainstream society, a two-dimensional culture has emerged. Although people who don't like it look strange, those people wear strange clothes and have inexplicable blood. But when you think about it, it is not fundamentally different from the mainstream culture. The conflicts they face in their lives are the same as those of most people, and we are metaphors for each other.

This kind of metaphor is relatively simple. The more advanced gameplay is that Woolf intersperses the story with depicting a decaying house, using the house as a metaphor for the change of his mood. The detailed and precise description is amazing. It's just that this kind of metaphor is too complicated, too deep and too heavy, and it doesn't pursue dramatic conflict, so ordinary people can't accept it.

But it is precisely because of its complexity, high skill, and strong interpretability that future generations can draw nourishment from it, rather than gradually disappearing over time. Writers fight against time in this way. Humans are inherently mortal, but Tolstoy's name will be remembered by future generations.

In the field of mass entertainment, there are some works that can make these metaphors dramatic enough and light enough to be understood and accepted by most people. But its original sin is the choice or inability to make a metaphorical system like Woolf's film, vast and logical, which may lead to insufficient conflict points in the later stage and gradually become dull.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and in any case, this anime is off to a good start.
