One thing that suddenly comes to mind is that the whole movie of "Princess Mononoke" is full of noble inevitability. Whether it is the character setting or the plot arrangement, it is "must have". The deer god, as the god of the forest, must be full of spirituality and power; Ashitaka, as a person who bears responsibilities and curses, must also be brave and loyal; "Princess Mononoke", as a girl raised by a wolf, must also be strong and stubborn. There is no room for doubt and uncertainty in this film.
At this point, Hesse's works can always be thought of. In the case of Demian, encounters and conflicts of all characters are destined to happen. At this point, Hesse sometimes takes on the role of a magician. of infamy. However, for me, this story is not the story of Emile Sinclair alone, but the story that everyone must have in his life in various and completely different ways. for the full story.
Hayao Miyazaki is a master at telling this kind of story, and it can become a boring story if you cross the slightest blurry line (all the plot is in your hands). But he was able to tell the story so well that I felt that I was not watching them as God and the audience, but as someone related to Ashitaka and Sanqiqi, because this is also my story, I must also be like Ashitaka, on my own battlefield, mixed in countless righteous words, admit all that is right, and bear all that is not right.
Losing the desire to become a human being and becoming a pig, the Shenyin who only belongs to young children, and the unspoken boys and girls, these stories are all worth listening to. But you've actually heard it yourself.

    Although the reduction from five hours to two hours is a bit obscure, and despite the addition of too many emotional dramas for commercial purposes, the film, which has been brewing for sixteen years in the script, is the pinnacle and turning point of Hayao Miyazaki. The unprecedented 135,000 films, CG technology and the rare bloody shots of Ghibli brought a series of visual and psychological shocks. Hayao Miyazaki gave up idealism and regarded man and nature as two irreconcilable extremes. He pointed out The first problem of mankind is survival.

    I conquered me in the first few minutes, but unfortunately the plot in the middle part was slightly delayed. The music is magnificent and the picture is extremely delicate! Xu Jinglei's voice for the princess is not good. "Rabbit's Tail" really!
