What is it?
Good daughter! Take a sip!
What is it?
The sweet aroma of puberty! Take a big sip!
What is it?
Pure love for high school students! Take a sip!
Who understands...?
Since entering the pit of the new "Leaping Youth", every Tuesday is the dean's fixed "Yang Inhalation" day.
Who would have thought that not long ago I would have ignored it - isn't it just a youth school fan? How is it worth the high score of 9.5 on Douban!?
As it turns out, it's really worth it.
Unbelief? Then look at the mental state of the audience -
Rely on weekly updates to gain a little spiritual motivation and constantly refresh the definition of "God" in your heart:
Stepping into the "jumping door", the chasing process is like "putting yourself in the sun and exposing yourself, and the frustration is swept away":
Last week, the seventh episode was postponed and directly collapsed a big piece (yes, there is me)...
In addition to the above crazy literature, there are more people who are awakened by this work to remember youth and reach a reconciliation with the once immature self:
Take the mental state of all people, how does it do it?
After all, the youth campus theme has long been widespread in Japanese animation.
A group of handsome men and beautiful women and funny supporting characters, busy school festivals, hot seashores, yukata and goldfish fishing... If you see more, you can summarize the universal template.
Although "Leaping Youth" also has these "fixed copies", it is a detailed adolescent tumult that unfolds around the plot.
For example, when I first entered school, I was not familiar with each other.
So there will be many people sharing tables, gathering together for lunch, looking for the right partner in a strange and polite atmosphere.
After getting acquainted, each of them made friends, and gradually developed a three-three-two-two lunch model.
Sudden back-hugging and sharing snacks between classes are also exclusive actions for female high school students.
These details hidden in the picture and dialogue, full of life's fireworks, will always inadvertently make people enter the time and space tunnel, return to the simple and beautiful student days, and they can't help but smile.
Of course, there will also be a gray side to campus life, such as jealousy of beautiful classmates, sourness towards crushes, and secretly "making bad" in order to balance psychology...
All kinds of emotions are so young and subtle, I am afraid that when I grow up, I will laugh at myself at that time for being too naïve and stupid to be worth mentioning.
"Leaping Youth" is like an honest and frank friend, holding your hand and solemnly saying:
"No, whether it's good or bad, all emotions deserve to be understood."
Like a belated word of comfort, it touches and heals everyone who is experiencing or experiencing the pains of youth without distinction.
The embodiment of the core of the work is our heroine, Mitsumi Iwakura.
There is a passerby face that will appear in a girl's comic, and her personality also has a touch of rustic and seriousness.
In order to realize her dream, she came to Tokyo to attend high school as a "village prodigy".
I got lost miserably on the first day of school...
was "picked up" by Tokyo local handsome man Satoshisuke Shima, and the two were still classmates.
Shima didn't care about being late, but Mizu took off his loafers and ran hard.
The posture is embarrassing, the soles of the feet are dark, the sweat is drenched ...
Mizu has not brought a rare vitality, and the simple tenacity that comes from the mountain forest land breaks through the reinforced concrete urban forest.
Even Shima couldn't help but run with her back.
At this moment, the cherry blossoms of April bloom and fall softly, opening the curtain on this tale of youth.
With dazzling vitality, Mizu has not broken into the lives of many people.
Especially as soon as Shima's handsome effect came out, many people also wanted to get close to Mizumi.
Among them is Jiangtou Meijia.
Compared with the straightforward Mizuwei, Jiang Tou's personality is a little awkward, and he really can't hear the connotation of her words without being careful.
She will tell Mizumi not to take Shima's goodness too seriously and childishly provoke the relationship between the two.
When everyone met to go to KTV, she coldly pointed out, is Mizu not the first time to sing?
But Mizu does not have a distinctive characteristic, that is, he is very positive, confident in himself, and used to thinking of everyone in the good side.
She took Jiangtou's words as a kind reminder, and in the face of the other party's ruthless debunking, she was only embarrassed to admit that there was indeed no KTV near her hometown.
Confession and sincerity do not mean that Mizu is not a stupid white sweet without a bottom line. To be precise, she simply has a strong understanding and tolerance that respects everyone's differences.
Jiang Tou sometimes speaks mercilessly and makes people sting, so asking her to help her with volleyball training is the most suitable:
In Mizuwei's view, these are the unique characteristics that make up Jiangtou, regardless of advantages and disadvantages, and all deserve to be seen and affirmed.
After all, everyone has their own formal guidelines.
How nice! There is no need to wash white or label, and the "female competition tool man" placed in ordinary girls' comics can also have a three-dimensional presentation in "Leaping Youth" -
Those careful thoughts in Jiangtou are real and delicate: they are complacent in front of rustic girls, and they are ashamed in front of real big beauties.
It is clear that she is good enough, but her self-identity is extremely low, and she needs to rely on foil and comparison to affirm herself. This also inadvertently resonates with many people.
In the stereotype, the positive "little sun" type character will always become the salvation of everyone.
Mizu does not have the ability to heal in her dealings with everyone. Including the audience, they can also gain a lot of energy from Mizu's simple and frank smile.
However, the author has always been careful - "Don't let Mizu not become a hero or god who saves everyone."
Instead of creating an omnipotent god, cherish each character in your pen.
In the anime, everyone has their own troubles, and their motivation to find answers and make changes comes from the heart.
Take Jiangtou:
Although she was infected by Mizuwei's directness, Jiangtou is still that Jiangtou, and her growth and transformation still depend on herself.
Unlike many girly comics that emphasize the male protagonist Su Point, "Leaping Youth" unfolds the story from the origin of Mizuwei, weaving a colorful picture of youth and full of vibrant personality.
Compared with romantic relationships, "Leaping Youth" is more concerned with the relationship between people, the understanding and common growth between characters (whisper: even if we are immersed in the problem, we can have empathy... ）。
There is no industrial saccharin, it's all a youthful and pure youthful experience.
Take the male and female protagonists as an example, Mizu and Shima.
At a glance, an ordinary looking man is a campus male god.
Their personalities are even more different: Mizu doesn't take his studies seriously, but Shima misses a day of school because he oversleeps.
Conflicts are therefore inevitable.
Mizu did not express his dissatisfaction with Shima's behavior of skipping class, telling him not to be so casual about his own affairs.
Shima, however, felt impatient because of this, and "turned over old accounts", ridiculing Mizumi.
For many people, they may feel: "Forget it, the personalities are not compatible", and then gradually drift away.
Shima is such a relatively negative person.
Although he attaches great importance to his friendship with Mizuwei, his avoidant personality makes him choose to deal with it coldly.
Mizu never ran away. She always seriously considers why she is unhappy because Shima missed class, and tries to pull Shima to make it clear.
Why wouldn't you want him to skip class? ——
"If Shima-kun doesn't come to school, school will be very boring."
Ahhhh She made a straight ball attack!! (Twist) (hitting the wall)
Careful words, frank sincerity, elementary school students generally naïve and pure reconciliation... It's not about love, but this 100% sincerity makes people on and off the screen cover their hearts and fall to the ground.
The two of them carefully treated the cute appearance of friendship, like this sunlight spilling into the campus corridor, blowing away the fog, and it was bright.
A thousand words into one sentence -
It's really between the sun!!
The plot after the two reconciled did not fall into the cliché of hot love and sugar sprinkling. Instead, start with friends, understand each other little by little, and gradually understand the value of each other in their hearts.
A little spoiler: In the latest manga plot, after the two were confused, it was Mizu who did not decisively propose to break up.
The reason is very realistic, I came to Tokyo to enter university, and I didn't want to study because of the emotional influence of unclear boundaries.
See here... As a senior girl comic reader, the dean felt a deep shock——
Nani, there are really Japanese high school students studying seriously!!
The emergence of "Vibrant Youth" has conditioned my solidified thinking.
It turns out that we are too accustomed to highly binding shoujo manga to love.
If shonen manga is synonymous with dreams and adventures, the boys' journey can be a sea of stars.
So who said that a girl's comic must stick to the framework of small love, and forever love is bigger than the sky?
The stories of young girls can also be varied -
Mizu does not love her hometown and wants to fundamentally change the problem of population decline.
She came to Tokyo to go to school alone to fulfill her dream of becoming a politician, revitalizing the countryside, and scattering her ashes in the sea after her death.
She is confident and open, and she keeps pushing for her dreams.
In her youth story, dreams are the more important thing.
So, instead of cheering up her love, watching and watching, I want to support her dreams.
On her way towards her dreams, whether it is friendship, family affection, or love, it will add thickness and sparkle to her life experience.
Watching her fall and get up, running hard, a clear blood rose in my heart, and the unresolved youth turmoil in my heart was awakened for a long time——
Rush, Mizuwei!
Just this once youth, let it shine!
