"Beast soldier forbidden wind post" is an animated film directed by Kawajiri Yoshiaki and released in 1993, told in just 90 minutes Hire ninja Beast soldier and Koka girl Rinyo Yan meet and fight together against the dark forces trying to overthrow the shogunate.

The script, storyboard, and original characters of the film are all original by Kawajiri, which can be called a Kawajiri-style work through and through. His violent aesthetics are vividly reflected in this work. The story takes place in the feudal period of Japan. Under the seemingly stable rule of the Tokugawa shogunate , conspiracy and darkness are surging. It means

The excellent prey always appears in the form of a hunter

The spear pierces the bridge deck, but the beast soldiers are not in a hurry, conspiracy and killing are common in this era Sheath, pick up the meal, in one go

This is because the Beast soldier was hired to return the sword that the thief stole from the general, the thief's 300 taels of commission was lost, so he came to revenge

and the Beast soldier Commission - 2 taels

The plot and audio-visual language design of the opening screen can be regarded as an example of a textbook. The plot of the rice ball being thrown and falling is used to reflect the speed of the beast soldier's sword, similar to the Chinese " Romance of the Three Kingdoms ". The classic plot of warming wine and cutting Huaxiong .

Those who have seen the original or attentive readers can see the GIF at the end has a clip of a dwarf jumping from a massive fake body.This kind of reversal mechanism design also makes people have more reverie and surprises about the ninja world and mechanism props behind the film The people came to a biased village, representing the dark forces of this work.

A plague broke out in a coastal village, and no one survived.

A woman infected with the plague came to another village

The woman seemed to be under the control of others and said

"Death" Now, everyone died, all because of the plague"

Then the surrounding villages began to block

Koga Ninja reported to the local lord, suspecting that the plague was related to the mysterious man who hit the typhoon night, the lord ordered the Koga ninja to investigate the plague source.

The Jiahe Zhong was in a meeting that night, when Yang Yan walked in and faced a room full of men without any timidity.

The woman was in the position of testing poison for the lord.

Then Yang Yan cut his invention and joined the Jiahe Zhong this time. The task of

Yang Yan - just as Yang Yan (meaning mirage) means, her beauty contains an illusory and fragile sadness. (Sorrowful plot of the Japanese nation) Female characters named Yang Yan in the Japanese film and animation tradition are often endowed with tragic fate. (For example, Yang Yan in another famous ninja war theme work "Koga Ninja Post"), Yang Yan here is no exception.

——This small paragraph is quoted from the public account Anitama's reasoning, "How does Yoshiaki Kawajiri bring his own aesthetics into full play in "Beast Soldier Forbearance Post"? boldface Supplement

Yoshiaki Kawajiri in the film The female characters are always tough and independent, and women are feminine in their strength. Whether it is Ma Jie from "Monster City" or Ryoko from "Midnight's Eye", they never stick to personal happiness but have a strong sense of personal mission. Different from some works that always put female characters in the scope of protection by the big male protagonist (but I have to say, the survival rate of female characters in Kawajiri films is really low) Description: Excellent prey always appears in the form of a hunter.

The group leader of Jiahe was slaughtered by mysterious people

The group leader of Jiahe escaped under the cover of Yangyan, and was a strong man wrapped in hard material (hereafter referred to as " Stone Man") Torn off his arms, the Stoneman drank his blood

But Yang Yan was not spared. After being knocked unconscious, he was taken to the temple by the Stoneman.

There is a third party in the temple. , Japanese has always been famous for "reading the atmosphere", so the beast soldier guard, who is skilled and does not seek fame and fortune, faced the stone man's bad behavior towards a yellow-flowered girl

He...he...he was actually in Asking for directions

The Stoneman attacked the Beastman Guard. The Beastman Guard stabbed the Stoneman's left eye and fled with Yang Yan. Yang Yan showed the Beastman Guard the way, and the two parted ways.

After the beasts and soldiers walked away, Yang Yan revealed his feminine side.

(The only place to cry is in the toilet, and in my father's arms)

Yang Yan reported to the feudal lord, and the feudal lord did not regret the death of Koga Ninja. Ordered Yang Yan to find out the truth by himself

The Beastman was sneak attacked by the Stoneman

In the middle of the fight, the hard substance on the Stoneman suddenly fell off and was defeated by the Beastbee

At this time, an old man appeared, saying that he defeated the Stoneman not only It was because of the swordsmanship

of Shoubei who also told him to kill one of the "Eight Ghosts" under the dark general who tried to overthrow the shogunate, and he would be hunted down later. The old man hoped that the Beast Guard would join forces with him to stop them. Beast Guard refused.

The Stone Man prints the face of the Beastman

The Beastman came to the hot spring to rest The old man helped the beast guard to clear the siege, the beast guard controlled the snake girl, but the snake girl escaped, leaving behind a body After being poisoned, he hired Beastie to defeat the "Eight Ghosts"

Using the silver 100 taels and detoxification method, the Beastie was talking with the old man and learned that the leader of the "Eight of the Ghosts" was once tortured with the Beastie. Hired by the ninja organization. In order to silence, the lord asked the ninjas to kill each other

The bridge killed all the companions of the Beast soldier, and then the Beast soldier killed the bridge for revenge for his friend. And now, the bridge has been resurrected.

The gods who symbolize redemption and light are indifferent in the face of snowstorms and killings

Beast soldiers and the old man have walked into the spider web of the "Ghost of Eight". Because of the thick fog, the two separated.

The old man was ambushed by the shadow ninjas, but the old man escaped with a "Viet Cong probe" (laughs)

, and then he went to the head-to-head confrontation between the Beasts and the "Ghost Gate Eight", among them Beasts and Yang Yan emotional line.
