Wendy第一次看绿川幸的短篇是中学时代的事情了,而她的系列作品却直到《夏目友人帐》去年开播后才受到盗版书商的“青睐”,在国内流传开来。这个冬天,夏目第二季强档回归,寒冷的时候看见猫咪老师那圆滚滚的身材就觉得分外温暖啊~~
Fans of Natsume and Nyanko-sensei rejoice: the second season of Natsume Yuujinchou (Natsume’s
Book of Friends) has finally arrived! Packed with great humor, intense tragedy and poetic dialogue, the
1)supernatural 2)slice-of-life show is designed to squeeze a tear out of your laughter.
A boy named Takashi Natsume has the ability to see spirits. He inherits the Book of Friends from his grandmother, Reiko, who had that same ability. The book contains the names of the spirits that Reiko has defeated. Anyone who gets hold of it can control these spirits. Now that Natsume has that book, he is pursued by spirits longing for its power and those who just wish for their names to be returned…
Those who have not seen Natsume Yuujinchou might assume that the anime would look familiar. After all, we have so many spirit- or monster-centered anime, haven’t we? My 3)initial expectation was of another noisy and funny series; the show, rather, is a calm, slow-burning tale of a boy and his quest for a sense of belonging. One of the things that I particularly like is the 4)evolution of Natsume’s
character throughout the
series. With the 5)subtle touch of delicate 6)dilemmas and 7)enchanting atmospheres, Natsume gradually grows from a lonely orphan to a 8)self-assured young man, who has to put up with a lot but still wants to do what he believes is right.
Loneliness can, I guess, push someone in two opposite directions. Some let the isolation eat away at them; while for others, like Natsume, it gives them a 9)keener sense of 10)empathy for others’ feelings.
The anime struck me with that 11)stream of
consciousness so powerful that he doesn’t just narrate events but thinks his feelings, his happiness and his 12)frustrations aloud.
There are as many wonderful and beautiful things in the spirit 13)realm, as well as things that are ugly and tragic. Most stories actually end up feeling
14)bittersweet. The humorous tune always leaves a bitter
15)aftertaste, striking a perfect balance between the moving and just plain funny. After all these moments of comedy and tragedy, at the centre of it is a warm heart that makes me eager to see what’s around the next corner. It’s no wonder that the original manga by Yuki Midorikawa has been known as “the most tear-
shedding story in LaLa.”
It feels like just yesterday that I watched the
16)finale of Season One. It’s a cool autumn evening with friendship, beautiful fireworks, golden leaves on the trees and a sense of hope for the future. This anime has ended up in my top ten shows for 2008, and with the second season starting, maybe it’ll be in my top ten for 2009 as well. So, if you haven’t had the chance to watch the first season, I’d strongly 17)recommend that you catch up and join this wonderful journey with
Natsume and Nyanko-sensei. See you there!
夏目和猫咪老师的粉丝这回要欣喜若狂了:《夏目友人帐》第二季终于开始了!这部生活气息浓重的超自然动画片中充满了令人捧腹的风趣幽默、让人喘不过气来的悲剧情节以及如诗如画的台词对白,会让你在大笑中忍不住落泪。
一个名叫夏目贵志的男孩能看见妖怪。他从拥有同样能力的祖母玲子那里继承了“友人帐”。这本册子里记载了被玲子打败的妖怪的名字;任何人一旦得到它就能控制这些妖怪。既然友人帐在夏目手里,妖怪便开始对他穷追不舍——有的觊觎友人帐的力量,有的则只希望取回自己的名字……
没看过《夏目友人帐》的人也许会觉得这部动画似曾相识。毕竟我们看过太多妖怪或者怪物主题的动画了,不是吗?我一开始也以为这又是一部吵吵闹闹、疯疯癫癫的作品,没想到这个故事却以平和、缓慢的节奏讲述了一个男孩以及他对归宿感的追求。我特别喜欢的一点就是随着动画徐徐展开,夏目开始慢慢地成长。如履薄冰的左右为难和令人着迷的奇妙氛围微妙地交织在一起,夏目从过去那个孤苦伶仃的孤儿渐渐成长为自信的年轻人——他确实要面对许许多多的问题,但他仍然会坚持做自己认为正确的事情。
我想,孤独可以将人推向两种截然不同的境地。有的人任由孤立感将他们吞噬殆尽;而对另外一些人(例如夏目)来说,孤单令他们更敏感,让他们更能体会到别人的心情。我被这部动画的意识流手法深深打动了——这种手法是如此强大,让你不仅听着夏目在陈述故事,还听到了他的内心感受、欣喜快乐与灰心挫折。
妖怪的世界里有许多奇妙美好的东西,同样也有许多丑陋悲哀的故事。在这部动画里,多数小故事的结局都让人悲喜交杂。幽默的调子里总会留下一丝苦涩的余味,(让故事)在感人至深与搞笑逗乐之间取得很好的平衡。而在经历了所有这些快乐与悲伤的时刻之后,作品中那颗温暖的心灵又让我迫不及待想看看下一刻会遇到什么事情。难怪绿川幸的漫画原作被誉为“杂志《LaLa》上最赚人热泪的
故事”。
我看完第一季的结局篇仿佛还是昨天的事情。那是一个洋溢着友情的凉爽秋夜,烟花绚烂缤纷,树上叶子金黄,未来充满希望。这部作品最后成了我心目中的“2008年十大动画”之一,现在第二季开播了,它也许还会蝉联“2009年十大动画”呢。因此,如果你错过了第一季,我强烈建议你赶上进度,跟着夏目和猫咪老师一起展开这趟精彩旅程吧。到时见!
无新欢,有旧爱——2009年冬季新番前瞻
《秀逗魔导士Revolution》第二季
万恶的第二季……或者应该说不知道从什么时候开始,动画也学了美剧那习惯,好端端的一个故事非要在播到一半时拦腰截断拖上两季才甘心。Wendy也不明白为什么连这部经典动画都会被传染这么人品的毛病,但更人品的是你还没办法不继续关注下去……
《源氏物语》
我承认我当时惊呆了——继去年《恶作剧之吻》终于实现动画化之后,又一部典藏级少女漫画华丽丽地“沦丧”了吗……说实在的,“恶作剧”的动画和原作比起来有很大落差,不知道这部被誉为“少女漫画金字塔顶峰”的作品又会如何?
《战国BASARA》
Wendy没玩过这个游戏,但对它的人设萌得五体投地。游戏改编动画每次都特别惹人注目,但几乎都拍得很烂然后被骂得很惨,不知道BASARA能不能幸免于难?其实我更关注的是声优阵营——虽然已经公布的名单和游戏保持一致,但是看看游戏那光灿灿的CV总表,Wendy很怀疑这么多大牌的档期真的能凑到一块儿去吗?
