Chapter 399: Depth

"Fate/zero" animation broadcast to the twenty-third episode,ushered in the peak of popularity since the start of the anime,The story itself belongs to the genre that is more exciting the more to the end.,The end of the [Holy Grail War],Then the fate of all the lords and heroic spirits who participated in this battle is about to come to an end.,As a group drama, this is probably the most attractive place for the audience.。 Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The basic one with a weak sense of presence in the animation has exited one after another.,The murderer Yusheng Ryunosuke was not very popular in the first place.,Although Zhao Yun is a character created by the main force in the morning.,But the choice of the master is destined to be no better.。 Tosaka Tokitaki, who did not bear any price in the [Holy Grail War], withdrew as a matter of course.

The rest of the night is about Sakura Makiri's fate, but the direction of the anime can basically see his future tragic ending, wanting to kill Aoi Tosaka's favorite person to save her, whether it succeeds or not, this is his biggest failure from the beginning.

Emiya Kiritsugu, a gambler who gambled everything, had no way back at all.

The "Happy" duo successfully transformed into a boss group.

Although the emperor duo who are most like the protagonists are doomed, the audience is still very satisfied.

The twenty-third episode of the anime is exclusive to the duel between the conquering king Iskandar and the hero king Gilgamesh, because the length of the animation is much longer than the original, and the animation has plenty of leeway to expand this plot, and the character shaping and animation performance are not comparable to ordinary animations under the adjustment of Yu Kamiya.

In terms of special effects, Episode 23 is the pinnacle of the special effects of the entire animation, and it is also the ultimate 2D painting of the 11th area animation. The tragic picture of the bombing of [King's Treasure] bombing [King's Army] stunned countless audiences, without the slightest intention of saving money, with Kamiya Yu's superb use of the lens, not to mention the field of animation, even if it is a live-action movie, there has never been a work that perfectly expresses such a magnificent and tragic scene, generally such a magnificent scene will be shot from a distance, one is to show the grandeur of the scene, and the other is that the picture can save a lot of details and reduce the trouble in production. The general audience really doesn't feel anything unusual about such long-range images, but just as animation with a three-shot shooting method has become mainstream now, this is the most cost-effective shooting method, but it is by no means the most outstanding method of shooting.

The animation production company has never had similar concerns.

Second, when the hero King Gilgamesh used the EX-level Boundary Treasure [EA・Obedient Sword], he also impressed the audience, witnessing the destruction of a whole world, the junction of the desert and the sky, but collapsing together, perfectly interpreting what the sky and the earth are cracking, millions of armies are like ants buried in an instant, and disappear with the collapse of the [Innate Enchantment], at this time, the audience intuitively realized what kind of terrifying power King Gilgamesh possessed as the original and strongest heroic hero.

According to the statistics of the [NiceNice] video website, there are a total of 1.04 million online viewers when the network synchronizes the delivery, this data is very close to the unsurpassable miracle of "Madoka Magica", the audience praise rate is 99% with "Madoka Magica", and the top 10 list of the anime praise rate of the current season is basically occupied by "Fate/zero", the top 20 in addition to "Fate/zero", "Knight's Twilight" Some of the episodes with wonderful plots are also on the list.

[NiceNicer] The statistics of the current season's anime praise rate are not a single animation, but an episode of an anime, so theoretically, there may be a positive or negative list of the top ten to the same animation, and the current season's anime praise rate occupies the top 10 and only appears in three animations, "Violet Blooming Garden", "Madoka Magica", and "Fate/zero".

The [NicoNico] video site in the 11th region of the last world also had an anime that achieved similar results, which should be said to be more exaggerated and historical than "Fate/zero" and "Madoka Magica".

"Yu-Gi-Oh ARC-V" swept the top 20 on the list of negative reviews.

Coincidentally, the plot of "Knight's Twilight" is also nearing the end, ushering in a critical period of conflict between the Knight King Artoria and the Knights of the Round Table, which coincides with the upcoming showdown between Saber and Lancelot in "Fate/zero", and this duet of fate must have benefited both animations a lot.

"Fate/zero" novel has been officially announced, more than two million words in the light novel is considered a super long story, of course, two million words can not win the first place in the number of words in the light novel, the light novel with the most words in this world is a total of fifty-one volumes of nearly six million words of the light novel "Legend of the Brave", as for the light novel in the last 11 districts of the world by "The Legend of the Leopard Head King" has set a record so far no one has broken through, this novel's status in the light novel is comparable to "Starting from Zero" The status of online literature is much higher, with more than 150 volumes of novels and biography combined, with an average word count of between 100,000 and 150,000 per volume, and cumulative sales of more than 10 million.

However, if the novel "Fate/zero" is also set at 100,000 words as one volume, then the total sales of the novel now basically exceed 10 million, and it can easily break the accumulation of more than ten years of achievements of other well-known light novels in one year, which shows the high popularity. The novel "Fate/zero" is very highly regarded by light novel readers, the plot is wonderful and deep, the illustration level is superb, the characters are full, and the question of whether the story is right or not is the perfect work for many readers.

One of the most praised points of the novel by readers is the intensity of the description of the scene, Yuu Kamiya's writing belongs to the upper level, and the imagination is very rich, many readers will naturally "see" the world depicted in the novel when reading the novel, so the "Ftae/zero" novel is rated by readers as the most "immersive" feeling of the novel.

This is thanks to the effect of Yuu Kamiya's consciousness space, and every animation he makes is the result of his own consciousness space simulation, and he is "watching" these real scenes into words.

The response to the ending of the novel is not very strong, the novel has more room for expansion than the animation, after the thoughtful revision of Yu Kamiya, this ending is expected by the reader and unexpected, and then the most important thing is the news announced by Yu Kamiya at the end of the fifth volume of the novel "Fate/zero", the sequel to "Fate/zero", and it is also the terminal of the [Holy Grail War] story in the entire [Moon World] "fate・stay・night" It will be released in January, and it will end the fate of the three Makiri Sakura, who did not resist their fate even in the end, for the adopted son of Emiya Kiritsugu's obsession with justice, Rin Tosaka, who inherited the bloodline of an orthodox magician.

Yuyoshi Kamiya has released an illustration of what the three of them will look like when they grow up, and they have been vaccinated in advance to show that the story of "Fate, Stay, Night" will take more care of young readers. After all, although "fate・stay・night" and "fate/zero" are sequels, the story style is by no means the same.

The animation can't be done in a short period of time, but Yu Kamiya can still continue to write a light novel for readers to look forward to and fill in the big hole of [Holy Grail War].

Yu Kamiya doesn't plan to split fate, stay, and night into three plot lines, he doesn't have that much time to anime the entire series, and besides, except for the HF line, the other plot lines can only be considered excellent, not essential. Re-analyze the plot of the three plot lines, take the essence of them, and knead them together with the HF line as the core to become the story of "fate, stay, night" that belongs to Yu Kamiya. This is quite a big project, and it is a lot more troublesome than resetting the "Fate/zero" novel, after all, each line basically has its own characteristics, and if it is not handled well when it is kneaded together, then "Fate・Stay・Night" will smash the [Holy Grail War] signboard.

On the other side of the light novel, Yu Kamiya served as the illustrator and Gosei Akiyama served as the author's light novel "Machine Age" was officially released to the public after the operation of Chiyo Shoten, and the initial impact of the novel cannot be compared with "Fate/zero", or even compared to the initial stage when the anime was not played. However, he is also known as a top illustrator like Yu Kamiya, and Gosei Akiyama has also written several well-known light novels before, so he is naturally easily sought after by the light novel industry.

"The popularity is okay, and it shouldn't be a problem to keep this state among the best-selling novels." In the office, Yu Kamiya logged on to the official website of Chiyo Shoten on his computer to search for the results of the light novel "Machine Age", which was released in December, and the first week of data was gratifying.

Yu Kamiya chuckled and commented: "The wasteland world, machinery and human nature, but unfortunately the world has not yet risen the trend of public opinion about intelligence, and there has not been a "Terminator". ”

"Automata" is completely out of step with the popular light novel genre, and deviates more from the definition of light novel genre than "Fate/zero", or the definition of a commercial light novel genre. Just like the house text in the online novel, it is suitable for a small number of readers. In fact, "Machine Age" has illustrations drawn by Yu Kamiya, and the novel gives people at least more than one level of perception, the wasteland world drawn by Yu Kamiya and the plot carefully shaped by Gosei Akiyama and revised several times over the course of several years, and the whole novel story leaves a very good impression on readers.

The official sale of "Automata" and the version watched by Kamiya Yu have undergone minor modifications, Kamiya Yu remembers that the core of "Automata" is very similar to "Insect Master", the story is healing and touching at the same time full of depth, it is a very intriguing plot, but unfortunately it is because of this that it will be too niche.

Thinking of the stance of these two works, Yu Kamiya remembered another well-known work with a similar theme stance - "Natsume's Friend's Account".

"'Insect Master' is about insects or nature and man, 'Natsume's Friend's Account' is about monsters and humans, and 'Machine Age' is about machines and people." Yu Kamiya unconsciously tapped his right hand on the tabletop, closing his eyes and listening to the rhythmic sounds coming from the wooden desk, while recalling the details about the three works.

If you want Yu Kamiya to give these three works a specific ranking, then the first place should be Akiyama Gojing's "Machine Age", the second place is "Insect Master", and the third place is "Natsume's Friend's Account", but in terms of popularity, this ranking seems to be the opposite.

Yu Kamiya knows the reason for the high popularity of "Natsume's Friend's Account", the plot is healing, the painting style is good, and the dubbing is excellent, if you talk about which animations women like the most, "Natsume's Friend's Account" must be in its ranks.

But the shortcomings of this animation are also obvious.,It's too pale.,Out of four seasons of animation.,As a result, every season and every episode almost repeats the same plot.,Feed people chicken soup over and over again.。

No matter how delicious the chicken soup is, you will eventually get tired of drinking too much, and the taste of the chicken soup never changes.

"Natsume's Friend's Account" lacks the depth of the plot, and some of the commercial elements are properly grasped, so this is a well-known animation work, and it is inevitably not an excellent work.

So the question is, what does the so-called depth of the plot refer to in animation?

It's too narrow to say that it's thought-provoking, but the depth of the plot is too narrow.,To put it simply, it's probably the theme of an animation and the recognized values it shows.。

To put it simply and crudely, even migrant workers like "Sea of Dead Fire" are promoting the simple and easy-to-understand values of justice and friendship, and the same is true of "Beautiful Girl of Light" for children, which is based on people's perception of values and deepens the possibilities. Going a little deeper, the depth of the plot of "Fullmetal Alchemist" is very clear, and the equivalent exchange has become a truth that has been circulating in the ACG world to this day. And then "EVA" and "Lelouch the Rebellious" are all like this.

The anime produced by Yu Kamiya all have a clear plot theme.

"Natsume's Friend's Account" depicts the emotional stories that belong to the monsters through the friend's account, which is already weak, "The Machine Age" about intelligent machinery is a problem that human beings will inevitably need to face in the future, but there is no such thing as monsters in reality, and the protagonist in the story of the monster is usually not the protagonist, and in the end, these seemingly moving stories are too pale because of the [unit drama] structure of the plot, so that the whole story is scattered and cannot express a clear theme and values.

If you can make the audience clearly feel the theme of the animation with one episode, there is no need for "Sea of Dead Fire" to be a feature-length animation.

"Insect Master" is a bit similar to "Natsume's Friend's Account" in this regard, and the plot also adopts the method of "unit drama", but the theme and values of the entire animation of "Insect Master" are more profound and intriguing, and each episode is expounding and deepening the same theme.

Thinking of this, Yu Kamiya shook his head and smiled, "This is the greatest value worth animating." ”

This time, his illustrations didn't waste effort, and they were invested in something worth investing in.
