Chapter 205: Kyoko Sakura's Tragic Past
Ruri Gogen does not participate in the main plot construction of "Madoka Magical Girl", and explains her ideal character of Kyoko Sakura to Yu Kamiya as a simple original artist. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoEvery line and every action reaction was conceived and discussed by the two of them several times, and she agreed to the change after careful consideration about Yuu Kamiya's intention to express the true attributes of this character with a smile when Kyoko Sakura exited. has always been too strong and strong image to implement the character attributes, rigid is easy to break, even if the character is very successful, but only in her own heart success, she alone understands Sakura Kyoko's real fragile heart, so this smile will be the most important performance for the audience to remember Sakura Kyoko's strong character.
In the original work, Sakura Kyoko was born in a church family.,Because the church run by her father has not been popular, their family life has become more and more difficult.,Japan is different from China.,There's so-called religious freedom there.,There are often Japanese people who open unknown churches to make crazy money.,Over time, everyone will not be fooled again when they get used to it.。 Seeing that everyone treated her father indifferently, Kyoko Sakura made a wish to "want everyone to listen carefully to her father's words" due to QB temptation, and the wish was successfully realized, and more and more people joined the obscure small church run by his father.
But then the "Silver Witch" appeared in the church run by Sakura Kyoko's father, and Kyoko, who had no experience as a magical girl at the time, forgot to lift her transformation after struggling to defeat the witch, and happened to be seen by her father. Young and ignorant, she immersed herself in the beautiful fantasy that she had helped the family, thinking that this beauty was a miracle created by herself, and under her father's inquiry, the naïve Sakura Kyoko told her father about the magical girl contract.
Kyoko Sakura's father learned that the increase in the number of believers in the church was not due to faith or gods, but to "magic", which he despised the most. As a fanatical believer, all his thoughts began to crumble, and he angrily denounced Kyoko Sakura as a witch who bewitched people's hearts, and Kyoko Sakura's mother and sister Momoko Sakura were implicated and forced to commit suicide.
It was probably at that time that the originally gentle Kyoko decided to go down the path of egoism, vowing not to interfere with other people's lives with magic, but only to use magic for herself - because she believed that using magic on others would cause misfortune to others, and if she used magic only for herself, the misfortune she created would come from herself.
Yu Kamiya thinks that the background story of the original Sakura Kyoko is still too immature, especially the idea of only using magic for himself in the end to bear the price with Japanese characteristics is naïve and paranoid, witnessing the suicide of his mother and sister, witnessing the prosperity and decline of his father's church, and what kind of opinion an ordinary girl will have about the magical girl contract.
Kyoko Sakura has nothing, so why not continue to deepen her background setting and strengthen the portrayal of the character's image under this premise.
Gogen Ruri clasped her hands and muttered: "Sakura Kyoko has experienced such a tragedy, instead of shaping her to the good side, it is better to try how to set the tragedy, after being abandoned by her father, the price of the contract made her lose everything, and her part of being a human being has long been incomplete, so she showed an unimaginable desire to fight or die in the battle against the witch, and in the battle of life and death, she can forget the scene of her mother and sister committing suicide, Because she saw the shadow of her past in Sayaka Miki and wanted to help her, she noticed that she was gradually crumbling but could not do anything, and in the end, she chose to die with her because of the factor of self-redemption. ”
"Not a completely good guy or a completely bad guy, just a poor girl imprisoned by past memories." After the fifth watch was still unfinished, she took the time to sneak a glance at Yu Kamiya, waiting for Yu Kamiya's evaluation of her settings, she is the second setting party, and similar ideas hovered in her mind before she came into contact with the animation industry.
Yu Kamiya used a mechanical pencil to quickly record the character design proposal that Ruri Goto said, and after thinking about it, he agreed: "Not a bad idea, it's true that the setting of [it looks like a bad guy turns out to be a good guy] is too old-fashioned, and it complicates it, showing a completely different character nature from Xiao Meiyan, which is very helpful for the shaping of the character and the appeal of the plot." ”
"The subtle plot was revised again.,Kyoko Sakura learned that Sayaka Miki made a wish for someone else to become a magical girl, and thought of herself to ridicule and cause conflicts.,In fact, she silently observed Sayaka Miki's life in the dark.,When Sayaka Miki was most disappointed, she handed her her favorite apple.,Cheer her up.。
"So how will Sayaka Miki, who has already regretted signing the contract, react? Accept? No, Kyoko Sakura was the one who had mocked her for the reason for concluding the contract, and this level of kindness would rightfully be mistaken for schadenfreude over her embarrassing situation. ”
"It's quite tragic to continue with Kyoko Sakura, and the character of Sayaka Miki will probably make the audience feel pitiful and hateful. Pity her and her childhood sweetheart.,Hate her for having such an experience but repeating the same mistake.,Don't understand Sakura Apricot's kindness to her.。 ”
"Using Sayaka Miki's last thank you as a medium to elicit Kyoko Sakura's smile, this kind of plot arrangement can greatly reduce the negative impression that Sakura Kyoko gives people." Coming to his conclusion, Yu Kamiya wrote down his latest idea in his notebook again.
······
After getting off work, Yu Kamiya didn't rush home, and drove to a large sporting goods store, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw the waiter with a smile like a spring breeze on his face, and greeted him and asked, "Dear customer, what do you need?" In Japan, customers are generally called お客様おきゃくさま (o·kyaku·sama), and the romanized sound sama can be directly translated into Chinese "adult", which shows the status of Japan's service industry.
"I'm looking for some bamboo or wooden knives to practice kendo."
"Yes, please come with me." The waiter led Kamiya Yu to a corner of the store, where three large shelves were filled with different kinds of bamboo knives, and there were hundreds of them, and each bamboo knife had a sign written on the data, weight, material, length, etc. Kamiya Yu casually picked up a few and weighed them, compared to the wooden knife of Poison Island Purple, it was really light, and he himself felt that it was not very easy to use.
"The main material of this bamboo knife is cinnamon bamboo, although it is not as durable as real bamboo, the price is very cheap, and the hilt is an oval octagonal design, which can very well correct the problem of beginners' sword holding posture."
"This material is real bamboo, which has a very good ability to resist blows after special treatment, and the quality is heavier, which is suitable for experienced people." Whenever Yu Kamiya picked up a bamboo knife, the waiter introduced it in a similar way. (To be continued.) )
