Hello everyone! I am Lingling watching anime
In recent years, the quality and quantity of Chinese comics have increased sharply. Whether it is the previous "Luo Xiaohei War", "Assassin Wu Liuqi" or the recent sister series " Halloween Street " with "No Man", they have all shown the progress of Chinese comics in terms of themes and styles. However, the Chinese comic that the editor wants to recommend to you today is an important work from 2018, called "Dawn of the Doomsday", which is called "filling a big gap in the theme of Chinese comics".
Accustomed to the peaceful years, I have to give you some excitement occasionally. This animation work is adapted from the end of the world zombie novel "Dawn of the Doomsday" by Jinjiang writer Fei Tian Yexiang. The release of "Dawn of the Doomsday" not only made a great breakthrough in the theme of Chinese comics, but also made viewers of Chinese comics in all aspects.
1. Unique zombie theme
In recent years, many 3D theme animations have appeared in Chinese comics, such as "Youth Songs" and "Snow Eagle Lord", etc., and have also made great achievements in 2D animations, but it can be seen that the themes are single and repetitive. Xianxia and a large number of magical themes occupy the main market, which inevitably makes the audience feel aesthetic fatigue.
However, looking at the entire film and television animation market today, the works on zombie themes are nothing more than the popular movie " Busan Tour " in South Korea. Exploring Japanese comics is Araki's "Kabaneri of the Iron City", but this theme is vacant in Chinese comics. Therefore, Tencent Penguin Film and Television chose to buy "Dawn of Doomsday" this time, which is very investment-oriented and has successfully catered to the public's curiosity taste.
2. Strong and popular data support
"Dawn of Doomsday" did not disappoint everyone's expectations. After it was launched on May 20, 2018, it created nearly 40 million views on the first day of its launch. It can be said to be a "newcomer of monsters".
So far, this anime has been viewed by nearly 500 million on Tencent platform, and the number of readings on Weibo has exceeded 20 million. This is a very popular achievement for a fledgling zombie-themed domestic cartoon.
In addition, the Douban score of the original novel "Dawn of Doomsday" is as high as 8.7 points. Such popular data support makes people praise the amazing "Dawn of Doomsday".
3. Broaden the production level of new horizons
Since "Dawn of Doomsday" is a "domain road film" work that is different from conventional animations, this time, Penguin Film and Television chose to cooperate with Qitong Film, which has a unique production style, to create an animation work that is unique from beginning to end. In order to pursue a new height of picture quality, Qitong chose to make the number of shots in each episode of animation to as high as 250-300 sets. Therefore, the audience can clearly see the smoothness and nature of this 2D anime. Even a small supporting role of zombie acts very well, and it is definitely not a shoddy garbage and stuttering scene.
In addition, "Dawn of the Doomsday" has also put a lot of effort into the style of painting. The famous "Ghost Disco" scene in the main film is enough to reflect its beautiful comic style. The character portrayal of the protagonist group is not that good with the common problem of Chinese comics that people complained about before - that is, the boring flaw of "consistent with the Japanese comics image". Instead, the production team integrates the unique Chinese style with American and Japanese styles, creating a perfect "apocalypse style" that belongs to "Dawn of the Doomsday". In terms of the choices of
op, ed and bgm, "Dawn of Doomsday" handled it even more without any choice. The urgent scenes of zombies siege the city choose to use the smooth electric guitar to stimulate the audience's excitement. When the plot involves life and death, it uses the form of piano and violin concerto to attract people into a sad atmosphere. Responsibly, "Dawn of Doomsday" really takes a lot of effort this time.
4. The wonderful bond between characters
Friends who understand the content of the novel "Dawn of the Doomsday" should be clear that the male protagonist Meng Feng and Liu Yan in the novel have a complete ambiguous relationship, which means that this is a Danmei work. Although "Dawn of Doomsday" which was brought to the screen did not blatantly put on the Danmei tag, the daily plot of Meng Feng and Liu Yan in the play also made many CP dogs excited.Of course, more viewers were moved by the true feelings of the two people supporting each other in the end times.
Meng Feng is a retired special forces soldier with a strong military power. Liu Yan is a graduate student in mechanical major who survives by his head. The two of them partnered in the end of the world where zombies are rampant, like a pair of good friends with both civil and military affairs. Meng Feng is responsible for opening the fire, while Liu Yan is responsible for strategizing.
"Dawn of the Doomsday" has many explorations and thinking about various aspects of human nature in the apocalyptic environment. For example, Liu Yan's senior Fang Xiaolei resolutely asked Meng Feng to kill him after knowing that his lover turned into a zombie, just for the sake of the sentence "No matter whether it is poor or rich, healthy or sick."
For example, Lin Musen, the boss of the factory that shows the dark side of human nature, his standard for taking in fleeing people is "whether it is useful", and whether it is useless to him, he chooses to abandon all the people, whether women or children, or find them to be bitten by zombies and shot them to death.
In the play, Liu Yan once said to Lin Musen's subordinate Wen Qiege, which is very thought-provoking: In this era when people are not humans, when killing countless people, how to choose how to be a human being is the most difficult thing.
Zhang Min, the protagonist in the novel, also plays an indispensable role in the anime this time. Zhang Min's tenderness to his son and his innocent and kindness in Cassia are the sharpest weapons in this doomsday.
"Dawn of Doomsday" has rich layers of shaping and vivid memories. It can interpret different meanings and plots from various angles. The production team did not turn this doomsday zombie theme into a brainless movie, but instead made it lifelike and not stick to the theme. This is very valuable compared to a group of Long Aotian Chinese comic movies.
In general, the release of the work "Dawn of the Doomsday" is a fresh blood injection into Chinese comics. It is a work with a very level and attitude in all senses. I believe that the level of Chinese comics in the future will become more and more refined, and will also allow us to see more possibilities in the future.
