Chapter 504 Crossing(1/2)
"On New Year's Day, singles come to watch romance movies. This is the romance of single people."
"I booked tickets for three movies today and watched three movies in a row."
"You have so much energy. I'll probably be exhausted after watching a movie."
"After all, in addition to Jing Yu's works, there are several other movies that actually feel pretty good!"
"For example, that movie called Glacier, I think the subject matter is quite interesting anyway."
.....
In the queue with your name lined up to enter, the audience whispered, but most of them were Jing Yu's fans gathered together to discuss.
They came to the cinema early in the morning to watch the first show of the movie. They were indeed true fans. Although they were all complaining about Jing Yu when they got together, they dressed up very artistically.
The Neon Genesis Evangelion battle suit, which has become quite popular in recent months, has also been worn by a large number of people to the cinema. Audiences dressed up as characters from Jing Yu's previous works have made your name the queue with the largest number of costumes in the cinema.
field team.
Chen Yushan followed the queue into the theater. The dark environment gave her a complete sense of security, but...
There are so many people!
Chen Yushan sighed in her heart. For ordinary movies, half of the people in the cinema are considered acceptable. Now at ten o'clock in the morning, "Your Name", or the earliest movie in the whole week, actually has an attendance rate of 100%.
More than 70% is enough to show Jing Yu's appeal.
Most of Jingyu's fans are actually in a good mood and are mentally prepared to be tortured today.
Soon, the movie starts...
The small discussion in the theater suddenly stopped.
As soon as the movie opens...
It is a beautiful meteorite that falls downwards with a graceful arc, breaks through the clouds, and carries a trail of flames.
It can be said that most of the special effects funds for this movie were spent on this meteorite, so most of the audiences sitting in the cinema felt a sense of wonder in their hearts...
So beautiful!
"When I woke up early, I didn't know why I cried. This kind of thing happens from time to time."
"I've obviously had dreams but I can't always remember them."
"only.."
"I just... felt like something disappeared."
From the opening dialogue and scene, Chen Yushan immediately felt a strong sense of déjà vu.
Ah, this is it...
Old thief Jing Yu’s favorite youthful scene.
Mitsuha Miyamizu, played by Yu Youqing, and Tachibana Taki, played by Jing Yu, appear on the screen without feeling out of place.
The audience in the theater did not find it strange at all that they were playing high school students again after such a long time. In terms of their cognitive influence, the image of Jing Yu and Yu Youqing was like this, although Jing Yu thought that he was already thirty years old.
People, spend all day in front of the screen messing with high school students
It's a bit inappropriate, but the fact is that there are so many high school student characters in his works. If anyone else were to play them, the audience's acceptance would not be as high as his performance. Judging from the abundant ratings, the performance of the works, etc., his fans just like him.
It has become a habit for me to participate in his works.
In fact, the setting of your name is novel, but it is not too novel.
The setting of soul interpenetration at the beginning can be said to have been found in more than a hundred movies in Jingyu's previous life.
But why was your name so popular in Jingyu’s previous life?
The picture quality of the original animated film certainly contributed a lot, as did the quality of the music, but more likely it was that Makoto Shinkai’s works had too strong a sense of personal style, and delicate emotional portrayal was his strength, but the overall overall view of the main line of the work has always been in the previous life.
Everyone complained about it, but in Your Name...he overcame his shortcomings in telling long stories and continued his ability to portray the emotions of characters in a delicate way.
That's why this movie made more than 30 billion in box office in Japan, an island country with a population of only 100 million in Jingyu's previous life. Calculated, the total is more than 2 billion Chinese national currency...
You must know that in Jing Yu’s previous life, China had a population of 1.3 billion, and the domestically highest-grossing movie only had a box office of more than 5 billion. Moreover, the ticket price of movies in the island country was not that high, with an average price of about 70 national dollars.
Your Name has such a high box office in the island country, and the ticket price has little to do with it. It is purely due to the exaggerated number of moviegoers.
For the audience in the cinema right now, the plot of Your Name at the beginning got them into the mood in just a few minutes.
Mitsuha Miyamizu, a girl who grew up in a small town, her father is the mayor of the town, her friend is the son of the chairman of the town's power company, and she is the heir to the town's shrine. The background setting of the game is introduced through some brief plots.
What I have to mention here is that fortunately Jing Yu has long since abandoned the trouble and directly introduced the Blue Star concept into many of his works, and then made the Japanese island universal background setting concept acceptable to his fans.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult for Jingyu to randomly change the settings such as the shrine in your name and the mouth-chewing wine.
As for the male protagonist Tachibana Taki, the setting of the son of a social beast in a big city is ordinary.
But they are just two people who have nothing to do with each other...
Actually traveling through each other's bodies?
This kind of plot was a bad setting in Jing Yu's previous life, but in Da Zhou, to be honest, it is quite new. It cannot be said that it has not existed before, but with this theme, Da Zhou's previous works have not produced any particularly interesting works.
So it is a niche subject.
These audiences who were going to the cinema to watch a Jing Yu Zhiyu movie were quickly amused by the plot of the movie...
Tachibana Taki, played by Jing Yu, is there to be a sissy. Mitsuha Miyamizu, played by Yu Youqing, has changed her previous image of a lady in front of the screen and transformed into a carefree girl possessed by a man. The first thing she does when she gets up every day is to face
Study your own breasts...
A person's three views follow the five senses.
If the person who plays Tachibana Taki is a man with a vulgar appearance, and he travels to a woman and does this kind of behavior, the audience will only feel disgusted.
But the fact is that the person who plays Tachibana Taki is Jingyu. Even if Jingyu's soul travels to Yu Youqing in the fantasy, and he makes similar actions, the audience will still only think that the plot... is cute...
Tachibana Taki, who is usually very masculine, became a weak sissy in the eyes of his friends because of the time when Mitsuha Miyamizu traveled through time on him. However, because of the delicate temperament of women, he attracted the girl he liked at school.
favor....
But Mitsuha Miyamizu, who is usually quiet and elegant, has become the kind of new girl who looks like a big sister on campus because of the masculine temperament displayed by Tachibana Taki's soul...
One is the obvious contrast between the two characters, and the other is the contrast between the Gu You impression that Jing Yu and Yu Youqing have given everyone in the past few years...
"Ha ha ha ha!
!”
Everyone in the cinema laughed along with it, and Chen Yushan also laughed along with it unscrupulously.
"I thought it was a tear-jerking movie, but it turned out to be a funny movie!"
"So this old thief has such a great talent for comedy?"
"Absolutely, my influence on the old thief has changed."
"It's really outrageous. I was prepared to cry when I came to the cinema. Does this old thief want to make me laugh to death?"
"It feels like the style is very different from his previous works. This Tachibana Taki, forgive me, there is no way to connect it with the Kenshin of Rurouni Kenshin... It's really... off the mark...
My impression of the old thief Gu changed from a cold-faced handsome guy to a sissy one all at once."
"Come on, who would have thought that Jin Shining would actually play a sissy in your name?"
"Although the setting is that Mitsuha Miyamizu's soul controlled Tachibana Taki's body to do these things, but... the old thief's acting is too similar."
...
Everyone in the theater briefly discussed it, but the plot would not wait for their discussion to end and continue to advance.
The early plot of Your Name is basically about the souls of the two protagonists traveling through each other from time to time. In various senses, the lives of Tachibana Taki and Mitsuha Miyamizu have changed for the better because of what the other's soul has done through time traveling.
direction development.
Because of the relationship between the female protagonist and the male protagonist, the interpersonal relationships around her have improved, while the male protagonist has successfully attracted the attention of the senior sister he likes because of the relationship with the female protagonist.
At the same time, in this process, the two are gradually attracted to each other because of their relationship with each other.
Judging from the early plot, it is quite satisfactory and can be regarded as the beginning of an excellent love drama.
But if you want to say that the plot is amazing, that's not the case. Strictly speaking, compared with the plot rhythm of the first 20 minutes of "Voice of the Star" and "5 Centimeters Per Second", the impression given is much weaker.
But starting from the middle period, the plot rhythm changed...
Strange things seem to happen to the shrines and shrine witches that have been worshiped in the town for generations.
Murals carved on the walls in the mountains deep in the town.
The plots of Mitsuha Miyamizu's grandmother and sister are intertwined...
And... this movie starts from the first scene until now, where Tachibana Taki's soul controls Mitsuha Miyamizu's body and carries her grandmother to the place she calls the underworld, where she places chewed wine as an offering.
There is not a single frame that makes people uncomfortable to watch. The whole scene is full of beautiful scenery. The strong imaginative style of the pictures in the works of "Voice of the Star" and "5 Centimeters Per Second" is once again presented.
Of course, the plot also has something that Jing Yu fans are most familiar with, the discussion about time in the play...
When the drama began to discuss a similar plot, Chen Yushan immediately realized that this movie would most likely be a movie with the same elements as The Girl Who Leapt Through Time, Yesterday's Date with Tomorrow's You, Steins;Gate and other works.

To be continued...
