Watching Pepsi in movies, watching life in episodes, hello everyone, this is Yingwushi!
I believe you have heard the news that the Japanese version of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was released last year, but in the Japanese box office market, the movie showed an avalanche box office collapse after it was released. What caused it? Today, after watching this movie, the editor finally discovered the problem.
In terms of actors, the Japanese version is not inferior to the original version. The heroine "Chen Yanxi" is impeccable in terms of purity and acting. The male lead "Ke Jingteng" "Except for the slightly grooved hairstyle, there are no other problems.
The problem lies in the localization and soundtrack. I don’t know for what purpose, the director did not choose to modify the plot. Basically, they copied the original version, including Many mirror shots are exactly the same as the original. For localization, although the film adapts the character background of each character in the film, it does not localize the plot. This is the biggest problem of the film.
Japanese campus youth editor has not experienced it, but it is definitely different from the original version. The director has no idea about the "youth" core Localization has no way to resonate with Japanese audiences. Compared with Chinese audiences’ viewing of the original "Those Years", Japanese audiences are more like watching Japanese actors perform "Chinese-style" campus youth, and there is no resonance. Talked.
There is a plot in the movie that is the sublimation of the emotions between the students, that is, something is lost on the campus. The original version is that the school needs to take out the schoolbags of all the students in the class and check it again. This creates a contradiction, and the next penalty station is natural.
The plot here in the Japanese version of "Those Years" is a bit embarrassing. The school lost his belongings. The head teacher learned that there was only one teacher and three who came to the school before seven in the morning. A student (several protagonists), and then they need to be called for questioning, then the protagonist disagrees, forcibly saying that you are suspicious of the student, why not ask the teacher, and then start to throw schoolbags in anger, forcibly causing conflicts . No, the teacher is just going to ask you something, just a few of you, isn't it normal to ask?
Of course, there is no need to search the schoolbags of all students in the original version in Japan, but the director forced to add drama in order to meet the original plot. Although I don’t know how teachers will deal with the loss of property in Japanese campuses, and how students will deal with head stabbing, even if there are such teachers, students will not respond so radically to such situations.
Then the soundtrack, the original soundtrack can be said to sound Hu Xia’s "Those Years" when the plot progresses just right, while the Japanese version has no plot. Matching music to arouse the emotional resonance of the audience.
Of course, it’s not a loss to watch the Japanese version, after all, Asuka is the cutest!
