Mr. Mu Xin once said in his speech in Japan: "Japanese culture is a great misunderstanding of Chinese culture." To put this sentence apart, "misunderstanding" means that he has imitated and learned Chinese culture, and it also means that Japanese culture and Chinese culture are closely related. The difference cannot be categorically believed that Japanese culture is just a vassal and copycat of Chinese culture just because of the learning process. Japan has never been regarded as the center of civilization because of its isolation from Eurasia and the limitation of its territory and resources. From its earliest study of China and its westernization after the Meiji Restoration, it has always existed as a marginal person. The uniqueness of Japanese culture and the recognition of humanistic values. From this film, we can get a glimpse of Japan's social ecology and the psychological state of the samurai class, which has an important impact on society, and the transformation of samurai morality and conduct by Bushido (or Japanese culture).
"Kirito" celebrates the samurai's personal righteousness and integrity, and criticizes the hypocrisy and selfishness of the ruling class. It is well-structured and impressive. This is an authentic Japanese film, a story of Bushido and human choice. The bloody case, a heart-wrenching tragedy, is impressive because of its tragic nature. It is not a single layer, but a progressive one.
The film first shreds the beautiful Qian Qianyan's daughter and his family. The most beautiful and heartbreaking part of the film is not the scene of his belly cutting and the subsequent fights, but it is him and the teenager Meibao writing in the study where the cherry blossoms are flying. Sitting down and the simple ceremony of getting married, these two scenes will make people feel particularly distressed in retrospect, because they understand that this beauty will soon be crushed into powder. In order to save his sick wife and children, Qian Qianyan not only sold the samurai symbol of the samurai, but also finally summoned up the courage to go to Jingyi's house to ask for a belly cut in the hope that the other party would give money. Before I knew what happened, I even felt Qian Qianyan is ridiculous, why did she go to Jingyi's house to make such a request? In order to set an example for more poor ronin, the Jingyi family forced them to cut their belly by example, but Qian Qianyan did not come with the consciousness of cutting belly, and asked whether it could be given a day or two. Yan Qiu Nu stabbed the bamboo knife into his stomach again and again. When he was in pain, he asked Jiecuo to cut off his head, but the samurai said, "You haven't drawn a cross." The pain was unbearable, Jiecuo However, the person could not end the pain for a long time, until Qian Qianyan committed suicide by biting her tongue.
After that, Jinyun Hanshiro's decisive and resolute bravery as a weakling was shocking, and it was a feeling of strength that was piled up. Our souls are shaken by this kind of justice, just as the blood of the martial arts heroes to support justice is surging in front of the small screen, especially when one person fights against the entire powerful family, it gives a sense of tragic heroism and revenge. It is the focus of many tragedies. Going alone, sitting calmly in the middle of the courtyard, and explaining the purpose of this trip, from the marriage of Qian Qianyan and her daughter Mibao, to Qian Qianyan being killed and sent back, to the duel with the samurai involved in this matter, and cut off their buns.
But in the end, the samurai who cut the belly was only shown as a sentence of "the samurai of the cut belly". All his statements, brave struggles and dignified blood were easily covered up by the word "cut belly". After sending it, he asked the servants to change the matter and report the matter. The killed retainer was only sick and died, and the "wish" of the samurai warrior was granted. In addition, under the combination of narrative fragments, it is gradually realized that Qian Qianyan's daughter and his youngest son experienced a dying struggle at a very similar time, and all the happy and virtuous husbands and wives before this were shattered.
It's a profoundly anti-Bushido film, and it's against the samurai conduct as an individual, or the set of samurai commandments used by the shogunate as a spiritual contract to rule and control the samurai: the bushido spirit, which requires the samurai to be unconditionally loyal to The master does not abandon his personal feelings and appeals (when the old Yu family issues a suicide order to the retainer whose hair has been chopped off, he will know the sinister nature of the name), and the reputation is above everything else. The bamboo sword suddenly came to his senses and burst into tears, "Forgive me, you sold these swords for the sake of Mibao... But I didn't pay attention, I never separated from my sword, I never dared to do this, my Ignorance, make me hold on to that useless symbol!" Pity that he has always abide by the morality of the samurai, he keeps the sword like his life, and never thought of selling the sword to save the lives of his daughter and grandson. That is to say, the so-called true samurai regards the spiritual symbol "sword" as something higher than life and kinship.
When the light in human nature conflicts with the discipline of samurai, what is morality? "Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy people's desires", is it right to preserve the way of warriors and destroy people's normal feelings? The daimyo firmly controlled the samurai class in their hands, and the sense of oppression from the top would attach their arm strength to each samurai. Once they touched the line, they were crushed by a whole set of shogunate systems. The ecology of a society formulates a unitary value and establishes a supervisory and executive committee, which means convergence, spiritual violence, and inevitable collapse.
Regarding death, Japanese authors never hesitate to write about it, even keen to express death. From the narrative content of the film to the image style, the image of death is endowed with deep Japanese aesthetic characteristics, highlighting a unique appreciation of death and death. Praise the psychology of death. In Japanese culture, the belly is where the soul and spirit are located, and it is only a secondary point for those who cut the belly to seek death. This ritual shows their aspirations is the effect they want to achieve.
The duel between Jinyun Hanshiro and Alisata in the wild grass dancing in the wind and Jinyun's bloody battle at Ii's house were the most exciting. The light gradually changed its intensity as time went by, the sound of swords colliding, and the simple roof lines.
A razor-corrected living person sits upright, bends uprightly, fights uprightly, cuts the abdomen uprightly, lives almost geometrically, everything is in order, orderly throughout life, the part that can be repressed However, the balance is lost, and the samurai will always decline and die. When tradition and conservatives are impacted and cannot grow, the samurai class who initiated the reform is abandoned by the reform is the best proof. The samurai advocates the short life and poignant fall of cherry blossoms, but these cherry blossoms are not real. The cherry blossoms that return to human beings are vivid, beautiful and sentient things, and reasonable norms are innocent. The value of one dollar guides life completely. The sin of devouring people, the blood splattered on the cherry blossoms was wiped out that night, and the tragic and solemn blood-stained cherry blossoms slowly melted in the bleak night, and the samurai will finally step off the stage step by step and end the curtain.
