46. This is a fake old thief, right?

Furukawa Hirosawa was stunned for a long time, and he couldn't pull it out of this cheerful and touching ending for a while.

His eyes were motionless, and his mind was full of one questionβ€”

The game of the ancient thief, there is no knife?

And also gave such a perfect happy ending?

Even the BGM at the end has become heartwarming and touching, not at all like Shirakawa Atsushi's style, and even less like Furuhara Tsubaki's style.

Except that the script is as good as ever, Furukawa Ozer can't connect such an ending with the name of the old thief of Furukawa.

If the end of the game is just that Itomori Town is destroyed by a comet, he still thinks it's normal and even applauds it.

After all, Furuhara Tsubaki has always been like this, and he is used to the knife.

Suddenly not sending a knife, and being so heartwarming, it is simply impossible for Furukawa Hirosawa to adapt.

How is this possible?!

This is a fake Furuhara Tsubaki, right?

It is impossible for the old thief of the ancient plains to be so gentle.

Something must have gone wrong.

However, he carefully confirmed that the game was really made by Furuhara Tsubaki.

On the list of the end of the game, it is impressively displayed-

[Producer: Furuhara Tsubaki]

It's the name of the old thief.

Immediately after him, the subtitles that appear are:

[Game Script: Mika Ishino]

Seeing this, Furukawa Hirosawa's eyes suddenly lit up.

That's right!

So that's it!

As soon as he smashed his fist, the whole person reacted.

This ending was not written by Tsubaki Furuhara, and the script was Mika Ishino.

Mika Ishino is a girl, her mind is more delicate, although she has also written tear-jerking works such as Onmyoji, but obviously on "Your Name", Mika Ishino has won the final right to speak.

Although I don't understand how she persuaded the old thief, only this explanation can make sense.

Furukawa Hirosawa could not have thought that there was the word "comedy" in Furuhara Tsubaki's dictionary.

This is the Great Demon King of Tearjerker.

Uh-huh, it must be so.

Hirozer Furukawa struggled to convince himself.

But when he returned to bed and lay down, he gritted his teeth and sat up all at once.

"Baga! The old thief of the ancient plains is the producer, how can the ending be changed without the consent of the producer?! ”

The one that Furukawa used to convince himself before no longer works.

At the same time, he realized a very terrible thing -

The old thief of the ancient plains is so kind, and he actually has such a rare gentleness, all the reasons may be that he is really going to retire!

……

"It's over, it's over, Gu Yuan Tsubaki won't really retire, right? Did you play Your Name? How could it be a happy ending? It's not normal at all, is it? ”

Early the next morning, Furukawa Ozawa got together to chat with Kinoshita, Hayamigawa and others.

The theme is naturally "Your Name", which has just been released by P Society

At this time, it was not only the three of them who gathered on the rooftop to chat, but even strangers from other companies on other floors joined in because they heard their conversation.

Everyone is a fan of the game, and there is nothing to hide.

Even because it's a game fan, it's so natural to chat.

After Furukawa finished expressing his opinion, everyone fell into silence.

Kinoshita nodded, his brow furrowed, "yes, that's wrong." I'd rather believe that tomorrow is the end of the world than that the old thief would be so gentle. ”

"That's it, what the hell is the happy ending? This is already an urban weirdo, okay? In reality, it can't happen.

I see, I must be dreaming.

You're all fantasies of mine. Hayamikawa said with a confused expression.

"Are you an idiot?" Furukawa Hirosawa reached out and tapped him on the head.

There was a duang sound.

Good is good to hear.

"Sizzle...... You're sick, aren't you? Hayamigawa said uncomfortably while covering his aching forehead.

"I'm here to make you feel real." Furukawa raised his voice a little, "It's reality, reality, do you understand?" ”

"Understood."

Hayamigawa said uncomfortably, "But it's scary because it's reality." Think about it, a producer who has never only used knives has suddenly undergone a 180-degree transformation, and Furuhara Tsubaki is either brained or possessed. ”

"Is there a possibility, that is, the ancient original Chunyu is really going to retire this time, there is an ancient Chinese saying called "the bird is dying, its song is also mourning, and the person is dying and its words are good], the old thief of the ancient plain probably thinks that this is his last work, so he has to leave a perfect end.

The final gentleness can be regarded as a reward for the players and make up for the damage caused to everyone by his previous works.

What do you think? ”

Someone from the company next door joins in.

Although I don't know what the name of this guy is, Furukawa Hirosawa and several people have to agree.

"That's probably the most plausible explanation."

"But...... This explanation, while reasonable, is difficult to accept. As long as I think that the old thief is really leaving the game industry, it makes me feel like I am out of love. ”

"Who isn't? I'd rather not be so gentle.,I can still look forward to Guhara's work every year.,But now although the game is complete.,But I can't play Furuhara Tsubaki's game anymore.,What a pity.。 ”

"Hey, I originally thought that the old thief could make games for decades, and when my children grew up, I would introduce them to the producers and games I liked.

[The game you are playing now, Dad, you have been playing more than 20 years ago. 】

Being able to have a common hobby and interaction with children, although the game is tear-jerking or sadistic, but this sharing is across time and space, how happy it should be at that time.

It's a pity ......"

Everyone could hear it, especially when they imagined the scene 20 years from now, and they felt uncomfortable.

"It's a pity, I won't be able to play the game of Guyuan Tsubaki in the future."

……

This wave of "Your Name" finale, although it is known as perfect, has made Pokeni players break their defenses.

Even more surprising and uncomfortable than the direct tear-jerking ending.

Your name was quickly fermented and exploded in the gamer community.

"Can you believe this? The old thief of the ancient plains actually gave a happy ending, and I didn't even dare to dream of this before.

But now it's happening so real. ”

"That's it, I was mentally prepared for everything before playing "Your Name", and the tissues were also well prepared, because whether it is from the promotional video or the introduction, you will feel that such a story must not have a good ending.

I've even been able to accept the death of the three leaves.,Or the two people are separated forever.,Never see each other again.。

Outcome......

As a result, they not only met in the vast sea of people, but also found each other.

Even if it was blank at the end, when they asked [your name], I knew it was going to be a good ending.

But......

This isn't necessarily the way we want it to end.

I'd rather Furuhara Tsubaki be a little more normal, and the knife at least shows that he still has an attachment to the game.

At this point, it is directly complete, as if it is going to be a perfect ending. ”

"Yes, when I heard that the old thief was going to retire, even if it was a similar news published in a magazine, I actually didn't want to believe it in my heart.

If you think about it, a person who has such high requirements for games, whether it is his dedication to the quality of the game or the demanding pursuit of the script, it is obvious that he can do this because he has a love for the game.

Because I like games, I put my heart and soul into it.

I don't believe that such a person will leave.

However, it was only when I saw the ending that I realized that Furuhara Tsubaki really wanted to leave.

It can't be repaired. ”

"Hopefully he'll come back in the future.

Putting aside the fact that Gu Yuan retreated, "Your Name" is actually a very good game. ”

"Indeed,The final ending is actually what the players really want.,Otherwise, it's too uncomfortable to stay in the destruction of Itomori Town.,Sanye died.。

"The game is really powerful, and it also shows that the old thief of the ancient plains is really strong."

"Hey, do you think it's possible that the old thief of the ancient plains just discovered it with his conscience, and didn't make such an ending because he was leaving?"

"Mm-hmm, it's possible."

Although everyone doesn't believe this sentence in their hearts, it can be regarded as a good wish.

……

The speed of "Your Name" is quite fast, just a week after the release of "Your Name", players almost have a certain understanding, and "Your Name" immediately made a large professional report.

[The retreat of the ancient plain Tsubaki

"Your Name" deserves that title.

The evaluation of Furuhara Tsubaki's works is inseparable from the words "sense of fate" and "distance".

Starting from "Onmyoji", to the later "Mermaid Heart" and "The Man of Reverse Degree", all revolve around these two cores.

A strong sense of fatalism, sometimes tinged with sadness, is often misinterpreted as-

Furuhara Tsubaki only wants to abuse players.

Tearjerker became synonymous with him.

But in fact, at the heart of all his works is a sense of fatalism.

This is vividly reflected in the Onmyoji series.

And "Your Name" is also indispensable.

The wonderful encounter is a unique arrangement in the underworld, where the hero and heroine exchange bodies through mysterious powers, and then they are connected between two time and space.

Such a sense of fate, even if the actor originally had someone he liked, and his predecessors accepted him, he would still be broken by fate.

As for distance, it runs through all of his works.

The distance between life and death of an onmyoji.

The distance between a mermaid and a merfolk across species.

and then to the people of the reverse degree, the distance across time and space.

These are the things that make players feel uncomfortable.

However, only the thoughts remain the same.

In Furuhara Tsubaki's worldview, the sense of distance between lovers is indestructible.

The so-called "it is the world that separates them" is what it means.

He is always depicting a kind of "ultimate narrative of divided love".

It's not so much that Furuhara Tsubaki depicts a sense of distance, but rather that a sense of distance creates his story.

But Furuhara Tsubaki is definitely not a person who only cares about distance, and he writes about distance in order to go on to describe "transcending distance".

To summarize with the classic lines of the heroine Aizuki Tanigawa in "The Man of Reverse Degree":

"Me, Ah Sheng, you know what?

I am nostalgic for many things, and it is because of these things that we are guided to the past.

For example

I miss the clouds of my hometown and the courtyard in the rainy season.

The crackling sound of water dripping down the yard.

I miss the smell of my hometown mixed with earth.

I miss my mother's smile......

I love the stars that used to bloom in the night sky.

I also like the feeling of my feet being wet by the sea at the beach.

I like the tranquility of the wind blowing in the mountains.

I also like the crowd after class.

The train rushes by......

Ah Sheng, these things, I've always been. Always, I want to feel it with you.

But now, even though I have all this, I can't meet you.

I just realized that none of this is meaningful without you to share.

We're far, far away, very, very far away.

But I think,

Thoughts may indeed be able to transcend time and distance.

As long as there are memories and thoughts, we feel like we are together. ”

As Aizuki Tanigawa said, longing may really be able to travel through time and distance, but in "Your Name", "forgetting the name" is a kind of embodiment of "the fate of separation".

Because of the witch bloodline,Sanye is destined to have a fate with others in this life.,But like her mother and grandmother.,Will eventually face the fate of completely forgetting this matter.。

But like Mikako, in the face of the fate of a behemoth and the imminent catastrophe, she chose to run with only a vague longing - falling all over the mountain road covered in blood, looking at the sentence "I like you" in her hand, even if she can't remember the other party's name, crying and laughing;

On the moving train, because of the glances and memories that I couldn't remember, I resolutely got off the train and ran blindly in the city. Even in a world where I don't know you at all, I still rely on instinct to find you.

Creating a huge distance, in the end, is to cross it, which is also the romance that Furuhara Tsubaki has always brought us.

Missing is the most powerful force in the world.

What could be more romantic than "crossing time and space to save you"?

As for the final ending, it seems to have been predestined a long time ago, which is also the sense of fate conveyed by the work from the beginning.

The meaning of exchanging bodies is certainly not to lose the existence of another person.

Soul swapping was meant for redemption from the beginning.

This is the fate of "Your Name".

Thank you for the gentleness of Tsubaki Furuhara.

But what the editors want to say is -

Furuhara Tsubaki has always been very gentle, and has never deliberately pursued sadness.

It's just that in the previous works, at that moment, sadness became the most suitable symbol.

That's all. 】

……

This report can be said to be quite in place, and the text of the editor Reiko Katayama is also quite beautiful, which makes countless readers sigh after reading it.

No, this must be a fake old thief.

It doesn't matter what sense of fatalism or distance.

Is the hair knife the core of the ancient thief?
