1, Yuangu was produced, but it was cold at B station
In April, when the spring animation started, this year's April show was very exciting. There are many animation sequels this season, and many animations are on the air. It has gathered a lot of popularity before.
For example, "Shaman King", which carries many people's childhood memories, "Reincarnated Slime Diary", a high-profile adventure in another world in recent years, and "Saga Idols are Legends", the popular original idol series on the Internet. It's a fairy battle.
In addition to some sequels, the original animations have not been left behind by fans, and the most anticipated one is "SSSS. Electric Light Machine King" produced by Tsuburaya----
"Tuangu"I believe everyone is familiar with it. It is the film and television production company that created the "Ultraman" series, which carries many childhood memories of contemporary teenagers.
And in April, station B even bought the copyright of many "Ultraman", which made many people regain the feeling of the year---
"Electric Superman Gullit" was produced by Tsuburaya in 1993 In 2018, the original animation "SSSS. Gullite" was launched, which brought the "Gullite" series back to people's vision again.
shows the style of special photography in the form of animation. This animation has won the praise of many special photography enthusiasts. In addition to Gullite's cool mecha design, the jk image created by Trigger Club also feasts the eyes of the audience. ;In addition, the continuation and supplement of the original setting and the proper control of the rhythm of the plot made "SSSS. Gullit" a popular animation at that time---
"SSS. Electro-optical Machine King" by Made by the original team that made "SSSS. Gullit".The original Taisha Trigger Club has impressed many fans with its excellent painting performances and high-quality original plots; editor Keiichi Hasegawa, who created the Heisei Sanjie, "Mobius", "Nexer" in the Ultraman series I believe that its profound screenwriting skills will not disappoint us in excellent works such as "Shi", etc. ---
However, this previous work was a hit, with an original animation by an excellent production team. After 6 episodes were broadcast, it was rated on Douban It has a high score of 8 points, and the total playback volume at station B is only 8 million.
The performance of "SSSS. Electro-optical Machine King" at station B seems to be far from the expectations of the audience in the early stage. "The Electric-optical Machine King", the dark horse that has attracted much attention in the early stage of the broadcast, really can't stand the B station audience. Are they polished?
Before answering the above questions, please follow my steps to understand the highlights of the drama---
2. There are many things to watch, not to be missed. The point can be said to be Tsuburaya + Trigger Club, creating a balance between special photography and animation. For Tsuburaya, who focuses on special photography, animation can be said to be a very bold attempt.
In terms of performance, animation can break through various limitations in reality and create a more impactful picture. The Trigger Club, which is responsible for animation, has very rich experience in original animation production. Its painting style is more inclined to Europe and the United States. In the mainstream animation wave of "cute" , the Trigger Club has always adhered to its own style, just like its name. , it is the trigger that is pulled to launch the work, bringing shock to the entire industry.
With the success of the previous work, we can believe that "The King of Electric Light" will have a greater breakthrough in the plot and painting---
Aspect 2: The portrayal of real problems
Campus bullying is a Japanese film and television work Frequent visitors, this echoes the reality in Japan. Whether it is on campus or in the workplace, the phenomenon of "bullying" has always existed tangible or intangible. The screenwriter of this work, Kei Hasegawa, was bullied when he was a child, so in his works, more or less evil elements of human nature are added.
In the play, the heroine's sister is suspected of committing suicide due to school bullying, but the heroine Nan Mengya's attitude is positive, even though her relationship with her sister is not harmonious, she still chooses to understand and find out The truth;
Aspect 3: Hidden Chinese elements
Whether it is the protagonist group or the villain, their characters and names are closely related to Chinese allusions.
For example, the male protagonist Ma Zhongpeng, from "Xunzi·Encouraging Learning": "In a fluffy hemp, don't stand up straight", often compares the influence of environment on people;
The name of the female protagonist Nan Mengya comes from an idiom " Nanke Yimeng", which describes a big dream, or an empty joy, or a dreamy thing.Does arranging such a name for the heroine imply that Mengya cannot pursue the truth she wants in the later plot? We don't know; the most interesting thing about
is that S Ma, the most important character in the protagonist group, may be the mummy found in China that appeared in episode 18 of the 1993 edition of " Electric Superman Gullit ". It comes from the idiom "When the horse loses the horse", it is a metaphor that bad things will turn into good things under certain conditions---
The integration of Chinese elements in animation is nothing new. We can often see it in various animation works, but in most cases , we all see some stereotyped Chinese elements such as cheongsam, ball head, etc., which do not resonate with us too much.
In "Electric Machine King", the production team followed the setting of the 1993 edition of "Gulette", and skillfully incorporated Chinese elements into the character's name, and the shaping of the character is inextricably linked with these allusions This is also the more interesting place in "The King of Light and Light"---
Aspect 4: There are special photography eggs hidden everywhere. "Private goods" .
For example, in the second episode, the op of "Ultraman Rob" was quietly played. In the room of Sister Mengya, there is a doll that is the same as the amulet of the male protagonist of "Nexus" Gumen Ikki . In the sixth episode The cover of the comics that appeared was Xiao Lu's favorite "The Flash" in "Ultraman Geed" and so on.
I believe that Tsuburaya has more Easter eggs hidden in "The King of Electric Light". I wonder if you can find it?
(Rob's op was played here in the second episode)
(the doll in the lower right corner is the same as the amulet of Gumen Ikki)
Aspect 5: Different from the traditional special photography It is a special work that is different from Tsuburaya's tradition. Generally speaking, the characters of special shots are either passionate, or have a sense of justice and mission. Such characters can often lead the team and promote the plot, but the protagonists of this work are all confused.
Ma Zhongpeng is a sentimental boy with a negative attitude towards fighting; Nan Mengya is a girl who lacks concern for things around her and bears the shadow of her deceased sister; Yamanaka Li is an unemployed young man with a weak personality and a sloppy attitude, his cousin Chize Asukagawa is also a dropout who squatted at home. It can be said that everyone in the protagonist group is in a confused stage.
Of course, it does not mean that such characterization is a failure. Everyone will grow up after experiencing certain things. Growth is also a process of self-discovery. I believe that in the subsequent development, we can see different protagonists. ---
03. The last
original animation is deeply fascinated by the audience because of its unpredictability. In the absence of the original animation to attract popularity, in order to attract people's attention, in addition to having an eye-catching plot, it also Requires impactful painting performances and reasonable rhythm arrangements.
But in recent years, more and more original animations have gone high and low, which has reduced many people's enthusiasm for originality. This may be the reason why "Dianguang Machine King" is not very popular now---
Of course, "Dianguang Machine King" is not very popular. There is another reason why the popularity of "King of Machines" at station B did not meet expectations. Because of the change in the introduction policy of TV dramas, in April this year, station B ended the era of synchronized animations, and all new animations in the animation area were released. It will be "trial before broadcast".
"The King of Electric Light", which was supposed to be broadcast on April 2, was not available on station B until April 3. Fans who could not watch the animation in the first time watched it through other channels one after another. It indirectly affects the playback volume of station B---
Although the popularity of station B is not high, "Electric Machine King" has the accumulation of popularity of the previous work "SSSS. Gullit" and the quality assurance of Tsuburaya and Trigger Club , is still a dark horse that cannot be ignored in April.
Most of the April episodes have already aired halfway, and many people have already decided which episodes to follow this season.
If you don't have this part on your follow-up list, be sure to add it.
