We are all fragile human beings, so don't be too mean to us

Postmortem judgment is an interesting topic. It is said that death is the fairest, because no matter how high or low, everyone will return to dust.
Life is alive, and social values ​​are all determined by others. Those who make mistakes will be criticized, and those who have done good will be commended. When the trial is bigger, it is said to be a matter in court, and when it is smaller, it is said, "This person has a small stomach, and that person behaves strangely." Isn't these evaluations also a kind of judgment. The so-called trial is nothing more than a measure of people's weighing, and it is up to it to decide how many pounds and how many taels. This scale can be the moral standard of each individual, or it can be a unified law, and the objects of measurement can be appearance, three views, and behavior. When there is a law to follow, it is natural and easy to judge, but more often people have different scales, and there will be different judgment results for the same thing. This is also a breeding ground for Zhihu's "how to evaluate XX" body. Therefore, in addition to objective standards, as long as you make an evaluation of one thing, it must be subjective. Therefore, you should give a big mouth when you see a self-proclaimed "reasonable person" but make a subjective evaluation.
If the judgment of the human world is placed after death, various legends of after-death judgment will be derived, such as seeing what good and bad things you have done, and weighing the weight of your heart and soul. Basically, in this type of legend, the object of judgment is the soul of the dead, the standard is good and evil, and some people believe in or not.
So back to "Death March", because of the above problems, many people started to criticize after watching a few episodes. There are two main points:
1. The trial is too arbitrary and not at all comprehensive and objective
2. God's perspective is disgusting, you Think you are old?
These are actually misunderstandings, but we can start from them and see what the merits of the death march are.
First of all, there is no absolutely fair trial, and you can't see the goddess of justice blindfolded. The trial is a matter for both parties. During the trial, it not only exposes the character of the person being tried, but also shows the trial standard of the judge. What the death parade does well is that it does not clearly state the standard from beginning to end, unlike the rules of the game and the rules of the judge, and even the outcome of the trial is only implied by the mask on the elevator.
Regarding the issue of God's perspective, first of all, we must make clear that this work is not revealing the darkness of human nature, nor does it pretend to be God. There is no all-knowing and almighty God here. Everyone is just a puppet doing their own job, trying to do their job well. As for the standard of judgment, no one has ever said that it is absolutely correct. Nona, a senior executive, questioned the trial, Dekim has humanity, and in the end the old man revised the rules of the judge because of this, so this is actually an inspirational story of the internal transformation of a multinational company...
Where do you think next? Where it is, it may be messy.
[Transformation of the Judge]
Dekim, as the protagonist, is the one with the greatest transformation. The basic policy of the post-mortem trial is to seduce the darkness of human nature through games, and then make a judgment. In the final words, he felt the pain and decided to change the policy to "let the guests say that it is good to live", from depression. The department has become a healing department, which is really gratifying. Dekim's transformation is because after long-term contact with Zhixing, he was inspired by her thoughts, and the emotions in his heart were awakened.
At first, Gindy took pleasure in observing the dark side of human beings, thinking that "human beings are like this. When they are alive, they can't think of death at all, and they really only want to survive at the moment of life and death."
Interestingly, the strong desire of human beings to survive is worthy of respect in Dekim's view, but Gindy thinks it is ugly.
[Suicide and Mother]
In the episode of the otaku who committed suicide and the star mother, neither family has a traditional mother image. Although the otaku's stepmother tried her best to be nice to him, she was never accepted, and she didn't know how much she went too far until he died. And star mothers have encountered countless scumbags and unknowingly have a bunch of children. Although they don't care very much about them, they still try to show their faces in order to support their family. It's hard to evaluate them, it can only be said that they are all ordinary people, with ordinary people's shortcomings, but there are also some shining points.
Zhixing had a happy childhood, but after being unable to skate because of injuries, he realized that even his mother couldn't really understand him, so he committed suicide. Until now, I feel that this motivation is too weak, it seems that people really can't understand others.
The two suicides thought they were the one who suffered the most, but in fact it was the one who caused the greatest harm to their mother. It is understandable that people think of themselves as the most important thing.
[Reincarnation and Nothingness]
Those who hurt others in the trial seem to have gone to nothingness.
Nothingness is terrifying in Gindy's narrative, but reincarnation is tiring, too. As the saying goes, when you walk on the shore, you can't have wet shoes. If you reincarnate many times, you will inevitably be cowardly in the trial. In the end, everyone will reunite in nothingness...
[The power of love]
is great. It can turn hell into heaven and vice versa.
[About the name]
I looked at wikia, and some people in it said that quin, decim, nona and ginti are the numbers of the corresponding floors in Latin.
【お tired れ 様 で し た 】
Dekim's arms looked very healed.
It's really not easy for people to live, especially those who are unlucky. I want to say this to everyone I like or hate.

There's still a lot to write, but I'm a little sleepy, so I'll make it up next time!
Finally, just pull it off. I watched this show entirely because of former Ye Sang's main role, his old friend had some lost IQ, but I didn't expect to find a treasure this time! I really like Mae Ye-sang's deep voice, although some people say it looks like an old man.
This time, Xigu-sang is paired with a small braided red hair with a bad temper...
Then the op and ed are very good, I don't know why, every time I hear/see the phrase "a stone is thrown into the lake, I think about my temperament" in the op I can't help but tremble. Although I can't understand the meaning of the lyrics at all, I think it's wonderful.
I don't want to say goodbye, but after it's over, I'm going to face the farewell with a smile like Dekim.

    It's a bit boring to pretend to be high and forcibly sublime later.
