When the "Painting the Rivers and Lakes" series was complained by parents for being too violent, when "My Name is Bai Xiaofei" was banned because it was too bloody...
Even "Pleasant Goat and Gray Wolf" can't escape the doom of being taken down: we can't help but miss the days when anime was free.
In recent years, domestic animation has grown up with difficulties under the blows of parents and the siege of Japanese comics.
Although the days are difficult, the progress of the national comics is also obvious to all, and one classic masterpiece after another has been born.
But if you ask which anime is the "domestic light"?
I think the answer may not be "Qin Shi Mingyue", which "may not be able to see the finale in your lifetime", nor "The Demon Boy of Nezha", which created the "box office legend".
But 10 years ago, after the release of that film, it suffered countless complaints about "Kuiba"!
From the tide of bad reviews at the time of the release, to today's "10,000 blood books for renewal"...
When the "Kuiba" crew exposed that there was not enough money, the actors were undecided, and the script was not available, fans spontaneously organized crowdfunding, only to ask the official to update the sequel.
We can't help but question, what is this once questioned anime, what is it?
"Kuiba" or that "Kuiba", the audience is still those audiences, but the reputation has undergone earth-shaking changes
Why?
Today, we will talk about the counterattack road of "Kuiba"!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="19" >01, the storyline has connotations: in addition to burning, there is depth</h1>
"Kuiba" should be a real "domestic burning comic", whether it is the first "100,000 Fire Rush", or the follow-up "Great War YuanyangJie" and "Rise of the God of War";
Each film has a relative large-scale high-burning battle depiction, providing a visual feast for the audience.
The high-burning scene is already loved by anime fans, not to mention, in addition to the high-burning, its plot is also very deep.
Why "Nezha's Devil Boy Descending" can become a "box office legend" is nothing more than because the battle is burning enough, the story is told well enough, and it can still cause people to think after watching it... Shen Gongbao's sentence that "the prejudice in people's hearts is a big mountain" directly hits "prejudice"
However, if we talk about "pride and prejudice", I am afraid that "Nezha's Demon Boy Descending" is considered a younger brother in front of "Kuiba".
In "Kuiba", the incomprehensible "tattoo" setting is actually a metaphor: discrimination and class
In "100,000 Fire Rush", the barbarian and the barbarian want to stay in the hotel, just because the pattern is a self-carved wooden pattern, so they are white-eyed and discriminated against, and Karasok, because he has a symbolic status of the "Dragon Clan Pattern", he can not only live in a luxurious room facing the street, his luggage and sword, but also can live in a separate room... Man Ji and Man Da, the two of them, because they did not have tattoos, even their luggage and swords were not as good.
Wen Yao divided all the beings in the Kuiba world into three, six, nine and so on.
Those who have a high tattoo are good people, excellent, and have unlimited glory.
Those who do not have tattoos are bad people, happy people, and discriminated against;
Even, there is no tattoo, not even the right to challenge the tattooed...
In addition, the world of Kuiba is divided into two layers: the celestial realm and the earthly realm
The celestial gods of the Celestial Realm are high above, and the various races of the Celestial Realm are creeping and claiming subjects...
Whether it is the two worlds of heaven and earth, or the division of people by tattoos, they all symbolize "class" and "discrimination".
Is Kuiba, who is born every 333 years and then destroyed by the joint destruction of the two worlds of heaven and earth, really a villain? Or is it just a challenger to class status?
This is the amazing place of "Kuiba", an anime, dare to metaphorically "class", "arrogance", "prejudice" and other issues, such a bold work, how can people not like? Not to mention that its story is well told.
The reputation of "Kuiba" can counterattack, not that the audience group has changed, but that the audience of the past has grown up, has more thinking ability, can see more deep philosophy and truth, and after understanding, it will like it more and more!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="40" >02, which is thought-provoking, not only the pattern, but also the meaning of kuiba's existence</h1>
In the setting of "Kuiba", the beings of the two worlds of heaven and earth believe that Kuiba is an evil being, a villain, and his existence will cause great disasters.
But with the improvement of the plot of "Kuiba", we gradually pondered: Is Kuiba really a villain? Is the meaning of his existence really to bring destruction to the Yuan Yang Realm?
Was the war provoked by Kuiba, or was it provoked by the Divine Alliance after the definition of the gods?
If the meaning of Kuiba's existence is destruction, then why does each generation of Kuiba have a large number of followers.
Why are these followers willing to use their lives to guard the weapons of Kuiba, waiting for the arrival of the next Kuiba?
The release of "Kuiba 2: The Great War of the YuanyangJie" has clamped on the "depth" of the first part: discrimination.
"Kuiba 2" embodies "class and discrimination" more prominently.
In "100,000 Fires", class discrimination is metaphorically implied: countless demons who rushed to the port were discriminated against by the coalition forces because they did not have tattoos, and they were refused to participate in the war. Even if these demons open the "fourth vein gate", belong to the ranks of masters, and are stronger than the soldiers of the coalition army, as long as there is no tattoo, everything about them will be denied.
By the time of "The Great War yuanyangjie", the "Kuiba" team was more straightforward: using a core character: the villain Yumi crazy, to reflect the class discrimination to the extreme, so that the audience can still remember.
Yumi is a madman, born of a fog demon, who has a fog demon pattern, but is discriminated against because of his origin. He was a warrior of the Coalition Army during the previous Kuiba period, and the current vanguard of the Kuiba Army!
The story of Yumi crazy is heartbreaking: he fought with his comrades-in-arms and defeated Kuiba's army, and his comrades died in battle, and Yumi hoped that the Sacred Army could admit that his comrades were "one of the ones who fought against Kuiba".
However, after the coalition checked, the answer given to Yumima broke him: no tattoo, not a soldier, cannot be called "a member of the anti-Queba".
Sarcasm, right? In order to protect the peace of the earth, the five people who sacrificed their young lives, Bai Luoti, Feng He, Ying Song, Huan Zejin, and Guangxiu, because they did not have a tattoo, they did not even have the qualifications to become the "enemy of Kuiba";
Faced with such a result, Yumi maniac could not change anything, and could only bury his comrades-in-arms and seek revenge on Kuiba alone.
Ironically, in the Holy Army, the five people who were not recognized, Queba listed them as mortal enemies...
Because of Kuiba's recognition, it was also in order to make the earth recognize that bai luoti, Fenghe, Ying Song, Huan Zejin, and Guangxiu had come to this world.
Yumi became a follower of Kuiba, using the moves of his comrades to fight against the coalition forces, so that the coalition army remembered the names of Bai Luoti, Fenghe, Ying Song, Huan Zejin, and Guangxiu.
I have to say that while the story of the mysterious madness makes people cry, it also makes people think deeply: how terrible discrimination and prejudice really are.
"The Great War yuanyangjie" has received rave reviews, and the villain of Yumi Mania has been very successful in shaping and attracting countless fans.
When Yumi died fighting for his comrades-in-arms, countless viewers were heartbroken. Shout: Return my ghostly madness
When the villain of Yumi mania is painful, the audience begins to reflect: Kuiba, is it really a villain? And not rebel?
At least, for Yumi, as well as Bai Luoti, Fenghe, Ying Song, Huan Zejin, and Guangxiu, they were more worthy of following than the Divine Alliance.
At least Kuiba wouldn't deny them that they had lived because they didn't shine!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="62" >03, "Kuiba" has no villains, only different locations</h1>
The highlight of "Kuiba" should be "Kuiba 3 Rise of the God of War".
"Kuiba 3" breaks the traditional concept of the audience: the film must have a villain
After watching "100,000 Fire Rush" and "The Great War yuanyangjie", most of the audience has begun to look forward to: Kuiba overturned the "pattern system" and created a world where everyone is equal.
However, when it came to "Rise of the God of War", the "Kuiba" crew directly overthrew the "villain" setting!
In Rise of God of War, there are no villains in the sense, only people with different positions and their own masters.
Everyone is a living life, living for their own faith, and their own faith, and struggle.
Of course, this "new method" of overturning the setting also makes this play incomprehensible to many audiences.
But even in this case, "Rise of God of War" still has a high score of 8.5 points.
It can be seen that "Kuiba" really counterattacked!
Rise of The God of War puts the perspective on the side of the Coalition forces and successfully shapes the captain. Of course, the sea incense on the Kuiba side is second only to Yumi Crazy in popularity...
The Yumi mania character image is too successful, YYDS!
In fact, by the time of "Rise of the God of War", the theme of "Kuiba" has been sublimated.
If the original setting was "prejudice and discrimination", then "Rise of god of war" directly rose to the height of faith.
Whether it is HaiWenxiang, or the captain, or other supporting roles, they are all: people of faith.
Their beliefs underpin their positions.
The captain's Qujing No. 1 is her faith: so no matter what difficulties there are, no matter how dangerous the road ahead, the captain will never give up Qujing No. 1, because this ship is her faith, it is her whole.
HaiWenxiang also has his own beliefs: follow Kuiba and defeat all the enemies of Kuiba.
In fact, I personally feel that Haiwenxiang is more plump and three-dimensional than Yumi.
Yumi is a kind of extremism, and everything he does is just to justify his comrades-in-arms.
HaiWenxiang is more like a walker, guarding his faith all his life.
It is undeniable that Yumi is a good comrade-in-arms, a great soldier, but he is too extreme and crazy.
Of course, such a setting is very much in line with the identity of the Yumi Crazy Mist Demon.
But at the height of thought, Haiwenxiang is even better.
Right or wrong, fight only for faith! It is the concept of Hai Wenxiang and the core of "Rise of the God of War".
In Rise of God of War, the Coalition forces are no longer annoying.
While on the ship, a soldier muttered, "Why is she saying anything?" Another soldier replied, "Yes, but she is the captain of the ship after all."
The captain's careless attitude and fancy personality always made the coalition question: "What is the use of this?"
But the questioning was questioned, and the soldiers never objected to the execution of the captain's orders because of the questioning. For soldiers, orders are greater than anything.
In terms of the setting at this point, it's wonderful.
Also, when he was on Vortex Island, the captain had to drive away alone to move the rescuers, and he needed to choose an assistant.
Everyone silently let Manji be his deputy.
The reason is that Qu Jingzhou leaves Vortex Island with half the chance of survival, while those who stay on Vortex Island to wait for rescue have only one in eight chances of survival.
At this time, the soldiers, who were still worried about running out of food, tacitly let the children leave early.
The glory of the soldiers, and the meaning of the battle is to protect, here, is vividly reflected, let people awe-inspiring.
At this moment, the Divine Alliance was not annoying, after all, they were also trying to make the ordinary people in the earth realm live more peacefully.
In addition, when the captain learned that the guardian of Vortex Island was the first hero of the Scaly Demon Clan, he only showed surprise, and then returned to his casual attitude.
Manji asked: Do you still think she is a hero?
The captain's answer caused people to think deeply: the Kuiba army had indeed attacked the Sea of Ten Thousand Poems, and the Sea of Ten Thousand Poems had indeed not been destroyed...
The captain did not answer Kuiba's question positively, but he also vaguely admitted that HaiWenxiang was a hero in the past and an enemy now.
At this point, there is no longer the concept of decency and villain, and some, just different positions...
In contrast, "Rise of the God of War" is more popular: in addition to the sublimation of connotation, there is also the shaping of characters, which is more detailed.
"100,000 Fire Rush", all you can remember is the main characters such as the Father and Son of Manji, Xuelun and Karashock, "The Great War yuanyangjie", the audience begins to remember the villains Yumi and Qi Hengsan...
When it comes to "Rise of the God of War", in addition to the protagonist and the villain, many characters with few roles are still fresh in people's memories: the mirror heart of the gods, the mysterious white-haired teenager, Okura, ordinary soldiers... Wait a minute
Each of "Kuiba" has a different excellent story, height and detail, and it is constantly improving, so I think: this is one of the reasons why the audience is looking forward to the sequel so much, right?
Overall, the reason why "Kuiba" is so popular is that netizens are willing to crowdfund to support continued shooting.
The main reason: this anime is really too daring, the "discrimination and prejudice" at the beginning, the class metaphor of the second part, and the setting of the third part overturned.
Each one is a kind of experimentation and innovation, which makes people want to stop watching.
At the same time, in addition to watching coolly, there are many details in the story that make people deliberate and think deeply...
By the way, there is also the unclear direction of the story, so that even some viewers who do not like "Kuiba" want to see: what is the difference between the director's brain hole and his own?
I want to see what flowers "Kuiba" can play. It is also the reason why some viewers are chasing it!
Therefore, I have to admire the director's brain hole and the boldness of his ideas, and create a classic.
