Rebirth of the Father of Anime

Accompanied by the theme song "one--, one--", which changes from low to high and becomes more and more high-pitched, Guishu and Mingli shuttle through the bustling city. The pictures are filled with memories of these years.

The sweetness I felt every time I wrote a letter, the anticipation I felt when I was waiting for a reply, and the happiness I felt when I received a reply.

I don't know when, slowly and quietly, it faded away, and opening the inbox became a habit, but that familiar letter never appeared again one day.

Although there are many strangers around, every time they pass by the mailbox, they always look at it involuntarily, because they put their hearts there.

Although we are in different places, we are looking up at the same sky.

Times have changed, things have changed and people have changed. We have had several brushes with fate, and the hearts that were once blended together have just drifted apart.

"If a miracle can happen, I will see you immediately.

On a brand new morning, let go of the past.

Say the long-awaited "I love you"..."

In the vicissitudes of song, endless regrets and longings are unrestrained.

Just like the letter they didn't send, the words they buried deep in their hearts could no longer be conveyed to each other.

Some people burst into tears, some people felt melancholy in their hearts, and some people stared at their significant other and hugged each other tightly. While I felt sorry for Guishu and Akari, I felt satisfied with my happiness at the moment.

"I have been looking for your smile..."

In the vast sea of ​​people, we are looking for the most beautiful memories engraved deep in our souls.

"The speeding train. On both sides of the railway..."

Destiny is separated into two parallel lines that can never overlap.

"Even though I know you're not there..."

Things have changed and people have changed, but my heart remains in the memories of the past. The helplessness of destiny allows regret to deeply erode the soul.

"If life can be reincarnated, I will be with you no matter how many times..."

The agreement once was engraved in the persistence of three lives.

"There is nothing left,

It can make me nostalgic..."

There is no room for anything else in my heart.

"As long as I have you, I want nothing more!"

The last lyrics reflect the two people's close dependence on each other, and also reflect the countless couples who love each other deeply.

At the end of the song, it returns to the first shot of the third act. In the vast sea of ​​​​people, cherry blossoms are falling, Guishu and Mingli pass each other on the first railway again.

The two stopped suddenly and turned around in unison.

A train suddenly cut in and separated the two people.

Everything seems to have returned to 13 years ago, with two small figures, Guishu and Mingli, looking at each other across the railway.

"It would be great if we could watch the cherry blossoms together next year!"

This is a small agreement between two hearts that once melted together. It is also the happiest and most beautiful agreement.

If they hadn't transferred schools, this might have been the best memory, but now the two people's memories were filled with the regret that they couldn't fulfill their agreement.

Guishu looked at the opposite side quietly. The speeding train seemed to be very long in a trance, and time seemed to have stopped at that moment.

If it ends from here, this will be the most perfect ending. It will leave the greatest space for the imagination of the audience.

Everyone can freely dream about what is waiting for Guishu on the other side of the train. They can find their favorite, most beautiful, and most satisfying ending.

But the story doesn't end there.

When the long accompaniment ends, in the lonely guitar sound. What appeared in front of Guishu was an empty place, with nothing there.

Guishu's face showed a look of silence and disappointment. But suddenly his eyebrows relaxed, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a free and easy smile.

Then he turned around and continued walking forward without hesitation. His stagnant life finally began to move forward.

The last picture is of an empty railroad crossing with cherry blossoms flying in the air. The figure who stayed here 13 years ago finally left here.

After watching it, the audience felt extremely melancholy. They felt that they had been deceived by the porters and posters.

The once beloved ones were not together in the end. There was no violent conflict, it was just as ordinary as that. After losing contact, the two people's lives gradually drifted apart until they finally let go completely, just like the stories that happened to countless people.

If the two finally get together, it will be a "miracle" full of fairy tale color that the audience most wants to see.

But the reason why a "miracle" is called a miracle is that it is unusual. If it could be seen easily, it wouldn't be worthy of being called a "miracle".

The life of two people drifting apart is the most common story in life. This is a logical "truth".

However, "reality" is often imperfect. With the best expectations, they saw a story that was completely opposite to their expectations, leaving the audience with mixed feelings.

"Reality" is the easiest to touch people's hearts. Following the story, the audience seems to have experienced a longing that spanned 13 years, from the initial sweetness and happiness, to the final numbness and gradual forgetfulness, to the final relief and relief.

The feeling is very deep, but to say that I am moved, I am afraid it is not that huge.

In the hearts of the audience, they feel more of a complex fatigue and a reflection on emotions.

At the end of the film, the lights in the screening room came on and the audience prepared to stand. However, when the end credits of the film popped up, a melody that was very familiar to the audience suddenly sounded, causing the audience who had already stood up and prepared to leave to stop their movements.

"This song……"

"It's so familiar, I think I've heard it before."

"By the way, it's the theme song of "We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day"!"

"Why this song?"

The audience frowned and thought in confusion, then suddenly remembered and murmured, a burst of noise suddenly sounded in the screening room, but it immediately disappeared. The audience fell silent and listened to the song carefully and quietly.

“There is nothing we can do about the sudden transfer.

I will write to you and I will call you.

So don't forget me.

Never forget the days the two of us spent in the secret base..."

This is the melody of the ending theme "-base~Everything you gave me~" in "We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day". The lyrics are something the audience has never heard before.

The album of this song has not been released yet. In "We Still Don't Know the Name of the Flower We Saw That Day", this song was only played in the first half, while the second half was used by He Chen in "5 Centimeters Per Second" middle. He felt that the lyrics in the second half were very suitable for "5 Centimeters Per Second".

I heard this lyric again after watching "5 Centimeters per Second". The audience had a deeper understanding of the true love between Guishu and Mingli who traveled thousands of miles to meet each other.

The song was so beautiful that it almost made people cry, and it made them think about the ending of the two of them. Even more emotional.

The sudden transfer of schools and the irresistible fate left the two young people helpless.

Mingli's anxious words when she first wrote to her were just like the desire in the lyrics to "never forget me".

The two wrote letters and made phone calls, working hard to build a bridge of hearts, just hoping to keep each other in their hearts forever.

“I have endless words to say when I meet you again at the end.

From walking on a snowy night to under the cherry blossom trees.

The tears running down your cheeks. I'll never forget.

You kept waving to me vigorously until the end,

I will never forget..."

For the lyrics in the second half, He Chen made slight modifications to make them fully consistent with the artistic conception of "5 Centimeters Per Second".

With just a few words, Guishu finally met Mingli after going through many difficulties. Akari clutched Takaki's clothes tightly, and the scene of the two sobbing repressed reappeared in the minds of the audience.

Under the cherry blossom tree with heavy snow falling like cherry blossoms, the two people couldn't help but kiss for a long time, which suddenly popped into the minds of the audience. Make them burst into tears.

The beautiful sweetness and happiness at that time gradually drifted away from the two of them. The ending of letting go completely in the end forms a sharp contrast.

The helplessness of attributing all this to "fate", which was not a strong emotion at first, suddenly burst out in this gentle song.

"If this is a dream, can you never wake up.

The promise I made with you on that day, the dream for the future.

A lifetime together will never be forgotten..."

Tears could not help but moisten the eyes of the audience - "never forget", but in the end they "forgot".

The more I was moved by the sincere and sincere love between the two people at the beginning, the more uncomfortable and sad I felt about the ending of the two people in the end.

The agreement they had made was just a dream. When they woke up from the dream, the two of them walked out of the dream.

"In April thirteen years later,

I believe we can meet again.

You from beginning to end,

Still shouting 'thank you' from the bottom of my heart.

I actually know.

Holding back tears, I said goodbye with a smile, which was a bit sad.

With the best memories...

With the best memories…”

Thirteen years later in April, when the cherry blossoms were flying again, the two of them passed each other again in the place where they left memories in the past.

As if their hearts were calling, the two of them stopped in unison, then turned around...

Whether he was holding back tears, I don’t know.

Guishu did smile in the end. For the first time in thirteen years, he smiled from the bottom of his heart. Facing the empty place, he may have silently said goodbye in his heart, not only to Mingli, but also to his past self.

The last song changed from high to soft, as if it was a kind of freedom and relief.

The beginning is also the end. At the place where the dream begins, the two bid farewell to the past, and the dream will become their best memory.

With the best memories of the past, I am moving forward on the road of life with a smile.

The movie ended, but people didn't speak or move around. They sat or stood silently, listening to the final ending song quietly.

In the song, I savored the "best dream" again, and my tired heart seemed to be sublimated by the caress. (To be continued.
