402 can't stop at all
He feels that this promotional PV should be appreciated with full attention and cannot miss every wonderful moment. Barrage that affects the viewing experience or something,It's best to turn it off.。
As it turned out, Tadahiro Shimizu made the right choice.
Because of the next PV content, it is even more exciting.
Ba Asami's fighting style, elegant and gorgeous, coupled with the chant-style BGM, reminds people of England, the Victorian era, and the holy Westminster Abbey.
But as soon as the screen turned, the music suddenly changed style.
Yuki Kajiura personally designed the ethereal and atmospheric, symphonic soundtrack with a sense of tragedy and epicness, and was officially launched. Accompanied by the chanting of the soprano, a magical girl with a long black straight appearance in the dark street.
In front of her, in the sky, accompanied by billowing lead clouds, an enemy with an overwhelming aura has appeared!
Qin Han asked the SHAFT staff to make this promotional PV, which is a battle skewer, and the material is taken from the wonderful battle scenes in the words of "Madoka Magical Girl".
Immediately after the appearance of Ba Asami before, it is the most famous battle scene in this anime - in the eleventh episode, the battle between Xiao Meiyan and the witch's night.
For this battle, Xiao Meiyan made very good preparations. She used her ability to manipulate time to steal countless weapons from various arsenals in advance.
At the beginning of the battle, Xiao Meiyan summoned hundreds of anti-tank rocket launchers and filled the ground.
This amazing scene made Shimizu Tadahiro, who was holding his mobile phone, grow his mouth, and his whole body didn't move, just staring at the screen.
"What is this?Magical girl fighting with a modern hot weapon?Never seen before!But...... It's fun!"
Like Shimizu Tadahiro, there are not only many audiences who were shocked. If he opens the barrage at this time, he will definitely be overwhelmed with "R! P! G!” Flooded with sight.
The battle officially began, Xiao Meiyan carried one rocket launcher after another, launched them at the Witch's Night in turn, and used her ability to stop time to freeze all the rockets, and shot her last breath towards the Witch's Night.
This kind of ingenious idea of combining the special abilities of the magical girl with weapons made Shimizu Tadahiro can't help but applaud loudly.
After that, mortars, anti-ship missiles, kamikaze attacks of fuel tankers, etc., are dazzling, and in the magical girl anime, unheard of weapons and combat methods appear one by one.
With excellent editing and post-production, although this battle only shows the tip of the iceberg in the promotional PV, it is shocking enough.
Compared with the previous magical girl animations, the protagonists are wielding magic wands or similar props to put skills, all kinds of light waves, lightning and flames are flying around, but there is no tension at all, soft fighting, the battle scenes in "Madoka Magical Girl", give people a refreshing shock!
"It's great! It's so exciting! It's comparable to a big-budget action movie! If this level of animation is taken out, it will definitely subvert other people's preconceived ideas about magical girl animation. There's "Madoka Magical Girl", and who else dares to say that magical girl animation is a childish thing that is only suitable for little girls!"
Although the second promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" has been broadcast, Tadahiro Shimizu is still holding his mobile phone in both hands, immersed in the amazing visual experience brought to him by SHAFT.
It took a while for Shimizu Tadahiro to come back to his senses.
He put his phone in his hand, went to the study, and turned on the computer.
Tadahiro Shimizu wants to watch the promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" a few more times. After the first meeting, he decided to watch it carefully and seriously, frame by frame.
And watching videos on a display screen of more than 20 inches, the effect is obviously much better than watching it on a mobile phone.
After opening the browser and entering the niconico website, Tadahiro Shimizu found that the second promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" had risen by thousands in a short period of time!
"LOOKS LIKE I'M WRONG ABOUT SHAFT. With such a high-quality publicity PV, there is no need to use any means of swiping clicks, and the best results can be achieved. It seems that this time, it was Qin Han who won. Although the promotional PV of "Sailor Moon" is also very good, I don't want to watch it a second time. And the promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" ......"
Shimizu Tadahiro thought and clicked the play button.
After watching it again, he clicked the play button again: "Hmm, this time I watched it with the barrage, I want to see what other people think of this PV." ”
When Kajiura Yuki's music ended again, and after the video ended, Tadahiro Shimizu habitually clicked the play button again: "There was a detail that I didn't see clearly just now. Although this promotional PV is wonderful, the editing style is too sharp, the picture switches quickly, and the amount of information is large. No, I'll have to watch it a few more times!"
In this way, Tadahiro Shimizu just sat in front of the computer, watching the promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" over and over again, as if he had eaten Xuanmai, and he couldn't stop at all.
It wasn't until his wife asked Shimizu Tadahiro to take a bath that he came back to his senses.
Shimizu Zhongguang shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Who made the soundtrack of this PV? The atmosphere is very good, and the melody is simply brainwashing." Even when I turn off the computer, the soprano chant still echoes in my head......"
After taking a shower, Tadahiro Shimizu didn't watch the video again, but began to wander around the Internet, looking for discussion topics for the promotion of PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" on various social platforms.
As Tadahiro Shimizu thought, after the second promotional PV of "Madoka Magical Girl" was released, it quickly became a hot topic of discussion on the Internet.
