Rebirth of the Father of Anime

"Welcome to the afterlife front!"

Nothing unusual happened after He Chen, so everyone in "" was put down. Later, when everyone was wondering why the devil had not released a new work for so long this time, "angel-beats" made its gorgeous debut.

In the warm tones of "-,-beats", which seemed to soothe people's hearts, but also sounded like a requiem with a hint of coolness, the audience came to such a world where the afterlife is the stage. .

Death is a sad thing for most people. It is despair, it is the end, it is a tomorrow that can no longer be seen, it is the end that has been announced. From the moment death is announced, every second that passes backward is a memory. It is definitely not a topic that can be called "interesting", and it is often tabooed by people who don't want to talk about it or get involved. It is the biggest and last thing in life.

However, for some people, death is a helpless beginning: there is no way to escape or avoid it. It is not a starting point in the true sense, but an embarrassing beginning that is close to the end but cannot reach it no matter what.

They do not recognize "death", but they are in endless "death".

They claim to be the "Front of the Afterlife" who want to disobey God, and they laugh and joke around all day long, but they suffer more than anyone else.

How can people who can't even say the common mantra "I'm so desperate that I want to die" find rare happiness?

Just because they are already dead.

Death, no matter what kind of work it is, has always been a sure-fire move that directly hits the heart as a "sensational" element. For fans, this is always the case in The Devil's works.

The soul-stricken Sawatari Makoto is the protagonist whose emotions reach their peak. The silhouette of the young fox at the end of the story gives people a beautiful longing; Kannabi's death was the end of that summer a thousand years ago, but for the small town just a year later, "death" has become a An opportunity for a boy and a girl to meet. There is no way to dodge; Ibuki's spiritual floating and Furukawa Nagisa's retreat in time to escape death are clear examples. The sleeping girl is unwilling to be alone. The girl who slept forever was rescued by the opportunity of the small town; of course, not to mention Baihu and Ace in "one-"...

The Big Devil's definition of "death" has always been different from others: its arrival always makes people cry. However, when the intensity of emotions has become saturated, even "death" can be the prelude to "rebirth", and the ending will always be happy and happy. It takes a lot of effort to usher in.

It’s a work by Big Devil, and it still has an English name, coupled with the familiar flavor, I’m afraid many old fans who are familiar with Big Devil will jump out and say, “Haha.

This time he must be tortured again, I won’t be fooled! "And so on.

But this time, the Great Demon King did not give them such a chance. The opening scene directly showed the world after death... People who are already dead, and people who cannot be killed no matter how hard they are killed, should not be able to die again, right? It shouldn’t be possible to torture, right?

However, "angel-beats" is different from the usual ones. The Big Devil almost takes "death" as his latest joke. He makes all the characters die from the beginning, and then they die again and again. Die again. Those who were put to death and then died, the four desperate situations were without complaint, and the characters were crushed by boulders in an understatement. Being pierced by a sharp knife, chopped into several pieces, and spitting out the smell of blood are the spoof ideas of Unbridled Zen.

It is this hilarious and fun story that greatly lowered the fans' vigilance, and the novel world setting also attracted their attention.

"The Great Demon King has become addicted to time travel recently? Why did the group leader and the group also travel through time?"

The emergence of fake groups and fake group leaders is naturally the most frustrating thing for fans to complain about. Especially Yuri, the leader of the SSS group. She and Haruhi Suzumiya are both characters written by the Great Demon Lord, and fans firmly believe that this is the return of the Evil Lord's bad taste. The two people's personalities are almost exactly the same. It can be said that changing their hair color and clothing will not cause any sense of inconsistency and they are indistinguishable. In the end, even the voiceover was done by the same person!

Because of the leader's reputation, it came naturally. Yuri was called a pseudo-captain.

"angel-beats" has received mixed reviews. Its advantages are obvious, but its shortcomings are also obvious. For example, due to various reasons, there were only 13 episodes. As a result, the characters who were supposed to be full of story-telling were simply given away before they had time to show their own stories.

The early stage was inexplicable, and the middle and late stages were fast-paced. The "forced tear-jerking" started before the foreshadowing could be completed, so the audience naturally couldn't "tear-jerk" them.

In the game "angel-beats", the story was completed to a certain extent. When He Chen prepared "angel-beats", he re-polished the story, adjusted the rhythm of the story, and enriched the experience of each character. , expanded the content of the story, and modified some of the deficiencies, thus becoming a complete and complete animation of 28 episodes currently being broadcast on Tianman.

The ups and downs of the story have always captured the hearts of fans, and the rich story foreshadowing has sublimated the finale to perfection.

This time, The Big Devil has subverted all her previous creative rules. It is the ultimate presentation of black humor and the ultimate concentration of bloody tragedy.

"In order to be ourselves, we have to work hard not to get used to it." Listening to an extremely ridiculous passage, it is now the survival law in "angel-beat", which is more difficult than having no food or clothing. These young people who died early Do everything you can to "preserve" yourself.

The Afterlife Front, referred to as the SSS regiment, their story is as colorful as the dusk, with the last hint of brightness before the sunset drifts away. It is a weak cry for help at the last moment of the night.

The story of "angel-beats" itself is not complicated: in the hypothetical afterlife, the dead boys and girls united to resist the direct servants of God in order to prevent their consciousness from being assimilated and dissipated—— Angel.

Behind the laughter, the topic gradually turned back to its true nature.

"Who is this angel?"

"Why on earth did these people come here?"

"What kind of world is this afterlife? What is the meaning of its existence?" (To be continued)
