Chapter 236. The whole people burst into tears! (8000 words!)
"Woooooo
Hino Kazue can't be said to be tearful, but should be said to be tearful.
To be honest, she didn't expect it to come to this point, and the tears seemed to be 'squeezed out' out of her eyes without money—they were really 'squeezed out' hard, she cried like a tearful person, and her eyes were a little sour.
But it can't be helped... This song "Although Our Hands Are Empty" is simply a 'tearjerker' when eaten with a small animated short, and Kazue Hino feels more useful than an onion on his face.
It's really tears, and it's the kind of tears that can't be stopped.
"This song is so good..."
Hino and Eda blew their noses, pulled a piece of paper from the tissue box next to them and wiped their tears, and then whispered.
It's really good, and the quality is very high, it's really the kind of feeling that can make her have a 'tearful' urge as soon as she opens her mouth.
The animated short film is full of details, and although it is a cartoon picture book style, it does not give Hino Kazueda a sense of childishness at all, but has a lingering sense of warmth in my heart.
It's really a particularly good anime MV, and the songs are good... There is a force that makes people not give up.
This 'don't give up' feeling isn't like other songs' come on! Come on! Don't admit defeat! Come on! There's a sense of force-indoctrination.
On the contrary, it is very euphemistic, similar to the feeling of 'the street on a winter morning, the joke at mealtime, the embarrassment of collecting clothes on a rainy day' - there are indeed things that do not go well in life, but as long as you don't give up, you can always get through it.
Kazue Hino let out a long breath, a little wanting to play to his talent as a critic.
This kind of animated short film can really make people 'teary'...
Like the high school girls in the same grade, Higashino's manga works can't do this.
But the male singer's voice in this song seems to have been heard by her somewhere? There's a faint sense of familiarity.
Hino Kazueda came to her senses, stretched out her hand and started commenting under the comment area, hoping that the person who drew this animated short film could draw a comic or a cartoon picture book, she would definitely pay to watch it, and she would also recommend it to her classmates.
After the comments, she began to appreciate the animated MV seriously.
She had been going to 'tears' before, and she didn't take it seriously at all.
The details of the touching stories in this animated short film are also very well portrayed... The things that each sheep that enter heaven carry outside of their bodies disappear, corresponding to the title of the song, 'Though our hands are empty'.
The wolf guard guarding the gate of heaven secretly shaved the black hair on his back and helped the lamb go home to meet his parents... It's heartwarming and funny, and it makes people feel warm.
As the lyrics say: Even though our hands are empty, we can hold each other tightly, and when you are alone, please don't get lost, because I will not let go at any time.
It is also because of the help of various people that the lamb can see his mother again.
And in the end, when the lamb enters heaven, the sweater knitted by his mother does not disappear, and it even names 'love is never something outside the body'-
"Even though we have nothing in our hands, are we surrounded by the love of all kinds of people all the time? That's a great theme..."
Hino Kazue sighed softly, almost unable to hold back her tears.
The whole animated short film is very short, only about 4 minutes and 12 seconds, and then it is probably the curtain of some production staff.
Kazue Hino just sat for a while and watched the entire animated short film, but instead of turning it off, he watched it carefully.
She wondered who made the animated short film and who sang the song...
It's just that looking at it, her tears poured out again, and she really couldn't stop it, which made Hino Kazueda couldn't help but pull several more pieces of paper, and while wiping her tears, she blew her nose red.
After doing this, Hino Kazueda continued to look behind.
But what she didn't expect was that the content of the newspaper was not a message from the producer and the singer, but a line of small words - "This song only commemorates the death of the industry colleagues in the arson case of PW Animation Productions".
The curtain lasted for three seconds, and then it was time for the official curtain call.
The three-second curtain made Hino and Koeda hearted, she first paused the video, and then searched the Internet, only to find out-
"Tokyo PW Animation Productions was maliciously set on fire... Seven people died on the spot, and one person died after the follow-up rescue failed... Three people were seriously injured. Ten people were slightly injured? ”
Smoke billowed from the pictured building, and the flames flickered.
This made Hino Kazueda sigh.
This is indeed a tragedy, and it is no wonder that the author of "Although Our Hands Are Empty" would make such a dedication to such a song.
Animated shorts also have the meaning of remembering the deceased... That's where it should be...
Recalling the various details in the animated shorts, the wolf guard who helped the lamb leave, the sheep aunt who lent the lamb razor...
Hino Kazue sighed and made a special trip to express his condolences under this news, hoping that the deceased could leave with peace of mind and that the surviving family members could live happily.
It's not helpful, but it's the same as the lyrics, 'Even though our hands are empty, we can hold each other tightly'.
"When you're alone, don't get confused, because I'm not going to let go at any time..."Kazue Hino sang softly, feeling that she really liked the song "Even though our hands are empty" more and more.
The person who made this animated short film must be the kind of person who is talented and compassionate.
Kazue Hino sighed, and then returned to the page and canceled the pause of "Although Our Hands Are Empty".
Then it's time for the announcement.
And then—
Belch...
Hino Kazueda's eyes widened.
Then he was stunned.
Because of the series of names that have been brushed down, she has nothing to say.
"Original drawing: Tsukasa Higashino. Lyrics: Tsukasa Higashino. Song: Tsukasa Higashino. Singing: Tsukasa Higashino... The cover is too..."
Tsukasa Higashino.
It's all Tsukasa Higashino.
Hino Kazueda couldn't help but rub his eyes, as if he wanted to get stuck in his throat.
She thought about today's complaints... I think Tsukasa Higashino might as well go singing, and he doesn't have to draw manga at all... It turned out to be really fragrant.
And it's really fragrant herself.
Hino Kazue watched the end of the curtain in a daze, and then came back to his senses and touched his little head.
This... It seems that Tsukasa Higashino is really good for drawing manga... But Higashino Tsukasa is also quite suitable for singing, and I'm right.
She read it several times in her heart before she gritted her teeth and looked at Tsukasa Higashino's "Although Our Hands Are Empty".
Unwilling! I'll have to watch it a few more times! Find the flaws!
And then—
There was another faint sobbing sound next to the computer desk.
......
Unlike Lemon, "Though Our Hands Are Empty" quickly gained a place online, not to say that "Lemon" is not as good as "Nothing" (title word omitted), but because "Nothing" has one more heartwarming animated short than "Lemon".
This animated short film is known as the 'Tear Killer', which is really the kind that can make people cry for a long time at a glance.
But this kind of 'crying' is not a sad 'cry', but the kind of crying that is touched and can't stop the tears at all.
Many boys said that they were sitting on the edge of the bed, and their girlfriends were looking for music to listen to on the Internet, but they cried 'wow wow wow' when they found it - the process was so fast that many boyfriends didn't expect it at all.
After they asked the reason, when they knew that their girlfriend was crying because of an animated short, they were just a little funny, thinking that their girlfriend really had a lot of things, and if they watched this animated short, they would definitely not have any emotional fluctuations.
Boys, they're all more rational types.
And then—
They simply hugged their girlfriends and cried together.
Afterwards, this group of boys felt a little embarrassed, after all, they cried around like a woman, it was just useless, and now watching this animated short film, there is nothing to cry about... Wow wow, wow.
The three-second long curtain also attracted a lot of attention.
After watching the video, many people expressed their condolences for the victims of the arson case at PW Animation Productions, and some even added that they would go to the funeral with flowers if they had time.
Things are getting better.
The cyber violence who had previously abused PW Animation Production on the Internet saw this situation, and they also silenced one after another, and no one dared to go against the wind.
Similarly, there are many people who say that "Although Our Hands Are Empty" is a good song, and the animated short film is also very heartwarming... But no matter how heartwarming the song is, the most heartwarming thing is the statement that Higashino Tsukasa stood up.
Tsukasa Higashino is the author of "Winner is Justice", but he did not blame PW Animation Production for this incident, but also took out this work to express his condolences, which is really admirable and a performance of a very public figure.
Tsukasa Higashino's status as a national manga author was suddenly elevated, and he became a good manga author who was responsible for the people - not only the comics are good-looking, but also the three views are upright, and "Unnatural Death" is even more good-looking!
There are also a lot of comments at the bottom of the comment section.
Higashino-san's new song is so good... There are also animated shorts, which are particularly heartwarming and capture my heart at once. ’
'Hey... I've had something similar happen to my family, so I'm very sympathetic, and when I watch the animated shorts, I think of my deceased relatives, are they also like the lambs in the animated shorts, who have secretly come to me? ’
As a mother, the most unwatchable thing is such a short film, I listened to the child's recommendation to watch the animated short film, it is indeed very touching and very good. ’
Higashino-san's song really gave me strength and healing. ’
There are a lot of comments at the bottom of this, and there are few of them that say no.
Even if there is, it will be scolded by many people when it comes out.
This animated short film is really popular, and at the same time, it has also made the situation of PW Animation Production Company much better.
Tsukasa Higashino's purpose has already reached more than half of it.
But what Higashino didn't expect was that this time it was not only him, the original author of "Winner is Justice", who expressed his position, but even Urashima Publishing House sent a condolence article.
It's like a chain effect.
After Urashima Publishing Co., Ltd. took a stand, other publishing houses and animation production companies also came forward.
Even the Rock Point Publishing House and Mozhu Bookstore did not exempt themselves from vulgarity and issued a condolence announcement.
It's not that they want to pick up Tsukasa Higashino as a competitor, but it's a big loss for the industry that happened.
Who can say that PW Productions is unlucky today, and it won't be them tomorrow?
If they also follow some people to fall into the well, then what will they do in the future?
Is it difficult to be thrown into the well by others?
And Tsukasa Higashino is really beautiful, and he can be called a cartoonist with a sense of social responsibility - after all, people can't speak with a clear conscience, right?
And on the other side.
Yumi Takahashi was also sucked into tears by "Although Our Hands Are Empty", she cried directly, and she also cried while holding the computer.
Aoi Fujiwara, who was next to her, only felt that she was annoying when she heard her crying, and felt that she was disturbing herself to read the manga.
And isn't it just an ordinary animated short? As for it?
Then when Aoi Fujiwara asked her to take a look too-
"Woo... It's nothing... It's not so... Woo... It's touching. ”
Fujiwara Aoi's mouth stubbornly refused to admit defeat, but her eyes had already squeezed out tears one step ahead of her mouth, and the moment she watched the lamb enter heaven, she couldn't hold back anymore, and directly 'burst into tears'.
This exaggerated appearance made the initiator Yumi Takahashi couldn't help but look at it twice - although she also cried, but it wasn't like Aoi Fujiwara? It feels like the eyes are like water guns, the kind that shoots out when you squeeze it.
Aoi Fujiwara cried for a while, and then came to his senses: "Whose work is this?" ”
"Uh... I just took a look. It seems to be the work of Higashino-sensei. ”
Yumi Takahashi touched her head and replied very bluntly.
"Higashino-san's work? When did he come up with such an animated short? Fujiwara Aoi originally wanted to say that Tsukasa Higashino was simply maliciously deceiving people's tears, but when he thought that his tears had indeed been cheated away, he shut up.
"I don't know... Why don't you give me a call and ask? ”
"I don't want it! I'm crying now, I'm sorry, I'll ask later. ”
The two of them pushed back and forth, and finally decided to wait until they had recovered their strength to ask Higashino Tsukasa.
This animated short film is really deceptive to feelings, but the tears can't stop flowing out.
But in fact, their reactions were basically expected by Higashino Division.
After all, this "Although Our Hands Are Empty" is a work drawn by Tsukasa Higashino using all his painting skills, and the short stories in the animation are already very touching, even if there was no painter like Tsukasa Higashino in the previous life, who added 'special effects', it deceived many people's tears.
And the combination of these two has led to this state of 'all people running in tears'.
Tsukasa Higashino's purpose has also been achieved for the most part.
Looking at the abuse and accusations that had basically dissipated, Higashino Tsukasa rubbed his eyebrows and exhaled in satisfaction.
He turned off the computer and put the original sketch back in his hand in the brown paper bag, and then turned over and prepared to rest.
The day after tomorrow, I went to the funeral where the flowers were laid...
