2017.05.20 OEdo no Candy 2 Event and Movie Review!

I got a chance to go to another OEdo Candy event and I got to go to the showing of the new movie plus they had a butai aisatsu (stage greeting) from some of the cast after.

*PSST: if you just want to read about the stage greeting then Ctrl F and ‘Stage Greeting’. It’s at the bottom of the page/post.

First the MOVIE REVIEW

NON-SPOILER REVIEW

Overall: This is partly what I was expecting and partly not. I was expecting it to be fantastical and romancy、 BUT I wasn’t expecting it to be so fairy-like and lots of glittery special effects and weird colour tones and such. It definitely makes it all the more magical and luckily, isn’t too distracting. Also it wasn’t as BL-y as I was under the impression of. I wish this movie had been longer. I needed and wanted more character development. The visuals were amazing, it was very funny (which I also wasn’t expecting) and the characters were great. It’s definitely an Indie-styled movie. It’s not a clean cut, it’s not professional looking, the editor purposefully leaves in real actor mistakes that happened for comic relief. BUT it’s enjoyable, fascinating and I’m glad it ended with a ‘To Be Continued’. Rating: 7/10

Now for cast and spoiler section and everything:

Kurihara Rui aka Louis Aramaki Yoshihiko aka MakiChan Someya Toshiyuki aka Someyan Fujita Tom Akazawa Tomoru aka Tomorun Kamiya Riku Shiono Akihisa Asuma Kousuke Yura Achiha Hiko Robin Komina Kouji Nakamura Kaito Tokito Kishimoto Takuya aka KishiTaku Izumi Shuuhei Moriya Koji Kazuki Haru Doi Kazumi Hashimoto Zenitsu Nakajima Ken Nihira Shougo aka Shougokun Mori Issei Dairi IG Saya Onuki Yuusuke Mayama Akihiro Takahashi Hiromu Sano Shirou Fukikoshi Mitsuru Takenaka Naoto Koizumi Kyouko

SPOILER REVIEW

I am going to go into a lot of detail about scenes and plot so you’ve been warned. Also I still haven’t seen the first movie so I many have left stuff out or not understand some parts because of that. Okay, let’s start!

The Movie Itself

Already mentioned in the non-spoiler section but: It was more Indie than I was expecting. I knew it wouldn’t be a perfect Toho cinematic-like movie because it has stage actors in and they usually have the more raw and not quite polished movies, but the director has been on Shabekuri007 and the cast is stella, top stage actors AND some HUGE TV names are in this cast, so I was expecting some professionalism but I was so wrong! It’s so, so Indie in it’s style. The cuts and edits aren’t quite so clean, the special effects are ridiculously fake but make everything look so pretty. The colouring and tone of the movie, especially when they’re in Underworld, is very obvious and like shades of green and blue rather than natural colours. So I was a little surprised at first. It’s obvious straight away that it’s Indie style, but I like this style thankfully so it didn’t bother me for long. I like this style; it’s definitely a style I enjoy but some people won’t.

Continuing on about the use of colour and sparkle effects when they were in the Underland; they were definitely creative and entertaining. For example there’s this sparkler like movement and light that goes around the characters, and at one point, love hearts are falling down around Someya and Riku when they finally meet and they realise they’re fated to be together. Just like these pics:

At first the special effects were very jarring and distracting BUT I got used to them. Although(!) it’s going to be annoying as fuck when it comes out of DVD because we ALL want to get those pretty and good shots of our favourite actors, but because the sparkles and such that just go all over their faces and everything, they aren’t going to be the best of shots. They should bring out an unfiltered version for us! They’ll make more money that way too!! xD

This movie was a lot less gay than I was expecting. Especially because on Tsutaya’s (a Japanese rental website and store) website the first OEdo movie is labelled as ‘erotica’ but like... there’s two kiss scenes, some rope scenes, and implied whipping but that’s all! But I guess Japanese censorship is more sensitive that way? I’d just say this is a PG-12, it’s really nothing too raunchy.

This movie was FUNNY! Funny as fuck! I wasn’t expecting it to be funny at all! I laughed the entire time! Either because of the stuff happening in the movie itself was funny, or because knowing the actors and their personalities it’s funny. It’s also very purposefully funny, like the editor saw a mistake and was like ‘that’s hilarious! Keep it in!'. Especially Asuma’s scene and the Masturi/Festival scene which I’ll explain later. There’s definitely scenes that happened by mistake or weren’t part of the script, but the editor and director purposefully left them in the final cut to give the audience a laugh and embarrass the actors xD

The story is simple-ish enough to understand and it’s very fun to watch, but like I said in my non-spoiler review; I wish this movie was longer so we could’ve gotten MORE plot and MORE character development and MORE comedy,. I just want MORE. Luckily at the end it said ‘To Be Continued’ however I assume the cast will change again(?) just like it did between the first and second movie, which is a shame because I’d like as much of this cast back as possible.

The Actors and Characters and Their Scenes

Kurihara Rui:

He surprised me. I’ve seen him in person and I’ve seen him on tv as himself many times and he very much has the persona of someone who is very emo-like with life and very monotone and doesn’t like to smile and is very witty but straight faced when he jokes. Even when I saw him at the first OEdo event he was like this! But in the movie, he at least had facial expressions! At first he didn’t but then we see him freaking out in the bathroom and being concerned. For the most part he stays as himself but I was surprised he could actually give SOME sort of acting performance. He is model so of course he looks damn pretty in his white outfit, and his skin looks freaking flawless as fuck in this movie. But I am very happy and surprised from the performance he did give.

Aramaki Yoshihiko:

My boy... first I have a bone to pick with you Aramaki Yoshi-always-straight-hiko!!!! (Can you tell what it is yet?)

OF COURSE MakiChan is the ONLY (no wait Asuma is too but he’s not a main character) straight person in this movie! EVERYONE else is obviously gay but oh no MakiChan just HAS to be the straight character -__- I was hoping for him and Akazawa to have a thing going on in this, instead of him denying he’s in love with his childhood female friend the entire movie -__- oh well! Least he’s somewhat gay in Honoo no Mirage... one day I’ll get my gay movie from him! I better! All stage actors have one! Also you work with Shosan a lot and he’s done quite a few! Also Baba and TakaChan! Come on Maki! GIVE ME MY GAY MAKICHAN MOVIE! I’m okay... moving on...

MakiChan’s character was chara (how would you even translate ‘chara’ in English?! ‘Playboy’? or ‘Likes to mess around’?) as fuck though. His first scene is him opening a very posh person’s door to reveal a very posh and stuck up girl and takes her through his izakaya while winking at his mates that he’s ‘gotten in there’. Then at the end of the date she pulls him slightly into the car and kisses him on the cheek. Once she’s left, he’s like ‘yes I’ve scored!’ BUT at the same time is totally adorable because he’s over the moon by just a simple kiss and can’t take his hand off his cheek where she kissed him! He was both chara and cute at the same time! Also the next day he’s with Shiono and is holding a teddy and just being so cute and child-like that he got a kiss from the most popular girl in his university xD Just adorableness galore from MakiChan! With the teddybear = adorable. Trying his hardest to join in on the (real) matsuri/festival = adorable! When he wakes up at the end = ADORABLE!

ALSO very badass when he attacks and kills Robin in a second! Also OMG! In the beginning he sees his dad come out of the Boys Bar that’s next door to the izakaya, and he chases his dad down and is like ‘you’re not gay?!’ and his dad’s like ‘why you think your mother and I.... anyway I’m gay. You do realise I’m gay right? You might not understand but that’s how it is!’ And the next day MakiChan turns to Shiono and is like ‘my dad told me he’s gay...what the fuck?!’ xD And his dad was being played by FREAKING Takenaka Naoto! TAKENAKA NAOTO! He’s a freaking movie and TV star! He’s amazing in whatever he does and he was in this?! And with MakiChan?! AND as MakiChan’s DAD?! And being a GAY daddy?! He was fabulous and amazing (as always) in this!

Speaking of Akazawa and MakiChan. I really loved their relationship and my head thinks they were dating in it even though his character is supposed to be straight, and I think Akazawa’s character was supposed to be in love with Rui’s character in the UnderWorld. Nevertheless their relationship was great BECAUSE MakiChan’s character in the Underworld cannot speak, he’s mute, and luckily Akazawa can hear him via telepathy which was cute so Akazawa helped MakiChan out a lot.

I can confirm that for many many months even before the movie first came out, MakiChan and co were saying you can hear them say ‘facial’ instead of ‘washoi’ during the festival scene, and I can confirm that they do in fact say ‘facial’ instead of ‘washoi’ in the scene xD I was giggling quite a bit.

Little side note: In UnderWorld he is the only character who has a recollection and memories of his time in the Real World.

Finally! As disgusting as it sounds (but shouldn’t be a surprise if you know me) MakiChan’s underarm hair made a special guest appearance and it made me VERY happy <3 why am I so fucking weird...MOVING ON!

Someya Toshiyuki:

Someya is so pretty when he dresses up and has make up in a more feminine manner! He was gorgeous! I could not look away! And the kiss with Someya and Riku was perfect though! It was rather heart-racey but nothing too heart-racey (am I even getting enough oxygen to my brain right now to be able to talk about this properly?!) xD

BUT! One moment that got me giggling though is when Someya takes like 5 minutes to cut Riku’s rope from his hands -- it really doesn’t take that long! It wasn’t that thick of a rope at all and I just cracked up the longer the scene went. I get it was a long scene so they could keep talking and so the sexual tension between them built up but it was a ridiculous amount of time.

Why did he have to die though?! Riku gets killed by Tom so then Someya kills himself with a knife in front of Tom and because Tom has essentially lost the person he loves he shoots himself in the head! ... I’ve just realised how freaking Romeo and Juliet this all is... it literally is just a movie about romance and being dramatic and everyone dying and/or killing themselves for the people they love xD what the fuck... it’s still good though!

Fujita Tom:

Surprisngly Tom’s character was pretty interesting! I don’t know why I expected him not to be because I was impressed with him in Kamen Rider Amazons and I enjoyed seeing him in person last time...

I liked his character. He was like a warlord and looked very good upon his throne. I liked both his Real World and UnderWorld Character. His Real World character works in the freaking Boys Bar along with Someya. In fact the entire Boys Bar scene and location itself is ridiculous and hilarious! It’s this very loud, strip-bar which is right next to MakiChan’s brother’s (played by Riku) izakaya and that’s why they have conflict, because they can hear the Boys Bar’s music every night. Seriously the entire Boys Bar scene is amazing, I think I enjoyed it a bit too much xD Anyway, back to Tom; I liked both his character but was short lived, again leading back to the whole ‘I needed more from this movie’ complaint.

Akazawa Tomoru:

I remember that in the last event, the director commented (probably during the Making video) on how big Akazawa’s eyes are, and seriously, while watching this movie, they really are huge! It doesn’t help he has these blue eye contacts in that really light his face up (not in a stupid way! A natural way!) so they looked obviously bigger compared to everyone else too.

But damn Akazawa’s death scene was sad and upsetting =[ It was so quick and unexpected too! He was seriously struggling =‘[ he got his neck slit open and was on the floor in his pool of blood coughing and trying to save the others before they get killed, and he’s like ‘I’m so glad you weren’t here (when they came <-- they being Tom’s group who are after Rui because he’s some magical white fairy thing I think).

Kamiya Riku:

He is MakiChan’s brother in this! But also Someya’s fated lover. A majpr plot of the story is that until he meets Someya (again) in the real world, he doesn’t remember anything except his family. He’s a very quiet character but once he finds Someya the amount of love you can see in his eyes towards Someya and how his face completely softens when he sees Someya, it’s so adorable!

Shiono Akihisa:

Shiono is a freaking puppy! He’s in love with his and MakiChan’s childhood friend, but she’s in love with MakiChan and instead of confessing his love to her, -- although there is a hypothetical scene that plays out where he tells her to forget MakiChan and hugs her and confesses his love to her but! -- he lets her go and holds back so in the end, her and MakiChan can get together! He’s too precious for this world! He’s so sweet! He also does the Matsuri with MakiChan which is great too! It was a short time but you could easily see their long friendship shine through their scenes together.

Asuma Kousuke:

Asuma’s character had a lisp and it was fucking hilarious. Several times in the movie, the characters (to his character) were like ‘why do you say Sa Si Su Se So instead of Sa Shi Su Se So’ It was a funny bit every time, especially when he was like ‘I don’t speak weird!’ and they all laughed. His character also got slapped a lot by the other characters as another form of comic relief.

Also in his very first scene, he clearly (the actor, not the character) overhits the wooden overhead part and makes a huge noise, you can see slight pain in his face, and everyone in the room (I was in) pissed themselves laughing. It was obviously a ‘the actor accidentally did it but we thought it was hilarious so left it in the movie’ moment.

By the way, Asuma it TOO tall and TOO skinny! xD

Robin:

His visual and the metal arm armour he has is badass! He looks so good in his costume and seriously that arm is soooo amazing! Even the cast and staff commented on how nice it is and Robin was happy he got to wear such a cool looking thing. His character is like an assassin but is so easily killed by MakiChan in one swift and quick movement -- it was an awesome scene! But unfortunately it turns out MakiChan didn’t completely and successfully kill him because as MakiChan tries to help Someya get Riku, Robin comes from behind and stabs him and he dies. But it was a cool movement when MakiChan ninja-slashed him.

Nakamura Kaito:

This little cutie! Him and Tokito were like supposed to be waiting on Someya but spent most of their time being pretty dumb (in an adorable way) and playing games with each other. Especially when MakiChan turns on Tom (he uses a sleeping drug on him) and Robin, after slashing Robin, the two of them are hugging one another and going ‘please don’t kill us!’ and MakiChan lets them go. It was such an adorable moment from them. It was cut when they played Rock-Paper-Scissors together too.

Kishimoto Takuya:

His guests appearance was absolutely hilarious! So he plays the driver of car of the women who MakiChan takes to his izakaya. And once out of view of the izakaya, she tells KishiTaku to stop the car. Here she removes her shoes and puts her feet on the headrest infront of her (she’s in the back seat behind Kishi who’s driving) and her feet are either side of his face and he’s like ‘o_O’ and ‘=O’ but also super enjoying it. I’m pretty sure she ends up putting her feet ON his face and he’s goes into this like orgasmic state and enjoys it thoroughly. His character was so amusing.

Doi Kazumi and Nihira Shougo:

There were some great cameos from people like Doi Kazumi (who was a worker at the Boys Bar) and Kishimoto Takuya (seriously KishiTaku’s part was hilarious! I am not doing it justice above!), also freaking Takenaka Naoto (who I already fangirled over)!

Furthermore, I freaked during the All Boys Bar scene when for a SPLIT (literally a split, split second) when I saw my very own Shougo-kun!! It was a moment of ‘*double take* wait what?!’ when I saw him. I practically jumped out of my seat when I found him! I was so shocked and excited to see him in it because I was not expecting him! I immediately tweeted him after seeing the movie and was like ‘why didn’t I know?! But also I’m impressed at how quickly I spotted you xD’ which makes me seem super stalkery xD oh well! But I am so proud of my boy and when I saw his name in the credits and realised I was right about spotting him, I was a very happy girl ^_^

Hashimoto Zenitsu:

He ends up being MakiChan’s dad’s entertainment in the Boys Bar and they look so freaking hilarious with each other. Knowing Takenaka he was the one super into the role and being like ‘lets do this! lets really do this’ and making it look so lovey dovey and sickly and funny as possible and I imagine Zenitsu was just going along with it. It’s such a good but short scene with them two.

Sano Shirou and Fukikoshi Mitsuru:

These two HUGE tv stars guest starring in this movie. I’ve always liked both of them (and Takenaka) and I really liked Fukikoshi’s character! He was very funny! Especially towards the end when MakiChan(I think?) is trying to explain what happened in Underworld and Fukikoshi is asleep the entire time xD

---

After the Movie, it was the CAST EVENT/STAGE GREETING:

It was: Aramakaki Yoshihiko (duh that’s why I went xD), Asuma Kousuke, Robin, Nakamura Kaito and Takahashi Zenitsu.

I was second row to the right-hand side (and the row behind me and all the seats to my right were empty, so safe to say it was obvious when he was looking at me), so as soon as MakiChan came on stage, he saw me and smiled at me ^_^ Then at another point in the talk show, Asuma was talking and I was giggling silently and very hard at him, and MakiChan saw me and had to stop himself from laughing - he made that ‘holding back the smiling/laughing’ type face. I feel guilty for making him almost crack up on stage but also special because only me and him know why.

They first had a Mini-Talk but I don’t really remember what happened or what was said but I remember laughing a lot - sorry! But I do remember them talking about Robin and his cool character, so he was like ‘okay! Everyone close your eyes! The audience will clap on which one of you they want me to kill!’ Even though they were suspicious at first, they complied and they all closed their eyes and he walked around the back of each of them and waited for us to clap. Naturally Asuma and MakiChan had the biggest claps, SO Robin decided to kill both of them with his ‘air sword’ (he didn’t have one on him). To which MakiChan was like ‘that’s not how I’d kill someone!’ and Robin was alarmed at first at how serious MakiChan sounded at killing someone (xD) but then asked, ‘well how would you do it then?!’ so MakiChan said he’d show them. But before that MakiChan did the same thing as Robin and asked the audience the clap at who they wanted killed and it landed on Asuma xD so the first time he just killed Asuma with an air sword and then the second time it was MakiChan giving Asuma a drink and saying like ‘Otsukare’ and then Asuma drinks it and collapses to the floor and MakiChan is like ‘I’d poison them!’ with a smile on his face xD which is related to his character in the movie because his character does drug Fujita Tom’s drink but doesn’t kill them.

Then we had the Senshuu-Kai which is like a lottery and they picked the audience’s seats from a box and it was to win one of five signed copies of the script. Most of the people who won were on the second floor -- there were only like 20 seats on the second floor and FOUR people from there got signed copies! We were all surprised at how lucky the top floor was.

ALSO The boys mentioned they watched the movie FROM the second floor. When the movie had ended I did see about 6 people stand up and slink backstage, so it must’ve been them! That means MakiChan was opposite me and one floor up! I wonder if he saw me the entire time! =O *dead*

Finally there was the HIGH TOUCH/FIVE on the way out!

Being technically the back row (it was set out weird. I was row N but second row on the right. Don’t ask) I was one of the first to go to the high five. The boys were lined up outside next to where the goods had been and the order was: Zenitsu, Robin, Nakamura, Asuma and finally MakiChan. I remember high-fiving Zenitsu and Nakamura completely, but I don’t remember high fiving Robin, and I barely remember Asuma, only just thinking ‘he smiles well’ and ‘DAMN HE TALL!’ xD

With MakiChan being at the end, he got a few seconds longer with everyone as they left. He gave me this huge smile, high fived me, waved at me, said thank you and good bye, and waved me off and watched me walk away to the stairs ^_^ <3 okay I’m dead *dead* he’s always so amazing with his fans. God dammit guys... he’s so amazing... such a good person *dead*

---

GOODS

---

Speaking of OEdo I hit for the next butai aisatsu of this movie! AND I’M FIRST ROW! LEGIT FIRST ROW! June 24th! So hopefully I’ll have a mini report about the aisatsu and maybe some extra comments about the movie ^_^

I’m getting there! About 3 more to go! *dead*

Shawn Reviews Avengers: Infinity War

I just saw Avengers: Infinity War on yesterday.

And I was deeply disappointed. If anything I see the beginning of the end of Marvel Studios happening right in front of me with this film.

Many comic and MCU fans will say that Avengers: Infinity War was the best film Marvel Studios ever produced. But what I saw was at the Magic Johnson was jumbled disjointed movie that was basically a half-assed version of Part One of a Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Finale.

Avengers: Infinity War is supposed to be an epic movie. And it feels grand in many of its visuals. Many feel like the comic panels of an Avengers Comic or Jim Starlin’s epic Infinity Gauntlet saga like the Hulk crashing through the Sacntum Santorum and Nebula being torn apart. Unfortunately, for all its big visuals and special effects, there’s nothing of substance that gives the film any emotional resonance. And that’s partially due to Jim Stalin and partially due to the by-the-numbers screenplay that feels like a second draft.

Why do I blame Jim Starlin? Well, The Infinity Story has always been a shallow one. So the screenwriters didn’t have much to work with in terms of source material for this adaptation. The whole Thanos Quest/Infinity Gauntlet comics featured heroes being jobbed out so he can look like such a badass. Unfortunately, when that’s presented onscreen it just doesn’t have much depth. From the opening scene we see Thanos killing Asgardians to make it look like he’s a badass, then the writers start TELLING us how Thanos is a superbad instead of SHOWING US. That sucks all the emotional resonance out of the story.

The other thing that sucks the emotional resonance out of the story is the sheer number of characters. Because there are so many heroes onscreen it’s hard for any deaths or injuries to have any emotional impact on the viewer. It’s hard to care about one person in this story because you barely get to know anyone in the few minutes they’re onscreen. If you walked into this movie cold with no knowledge of the MCU or Marvel comics, you’d think it was a very shallow film just like the overrated comics it’s based on.

The screenwriters try to rewrite Thanos to make him a superbad by saying he’s going to kill half the universe to stop people all over the universe from suffering due to a lack of resources, but I still see the same old SIMP I read in the comics over 25 years ago. Only Instead of chasing under Death’s purple robes, he’s chasing a grand delusion like the Supreme Gentleman Eliot Rodger.

Seriously there’s a HUGE flaw in Thanos’ grand plan to get all these Infinity Stones and kill off half the universe. It would NEVER balance the universe. Why? Because all the survivors will do is reproduce and in a few eons we’re back at square one as related to resources. So killing people doesn’t change anything.

To me Thanos isn’t a mad god, but a STUPID one. If Thanos picked up a Bible and Read Psalms 24:1 he’d have saved himself a LOT of grief. And if he read the book of Ecclesiastics he’d realize what an idiot he actually is.

But the film goes on piling up plotholes as Thanos continues on his quest to get the Infinity Stones. Heroes get jobbed out and beat up and killed until everything builds up to the disjointed climax. After numerous overdone special effects sequences ripped from Paul Dini and Bruce Timm’s Justice League and more jobbed out heroes, Thanos gets the last Infinity Stone in Vision’s head. Then we get one of those endings that literally feels like it was ripped straight from a Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Finale.

And a couple of scenes I think were ripped off from me. There’s a couple of scenes in this movie that look like they came STRAIGHT from my John Haynes sequel The Man Who Rules The World. When I look at the Scene with Star Lord shooting at Thanos and him turning his laser shots into bubbles I have to wonder if these screenwriters stole that from the Climax of The Man Who Rules The World where John Haynes and E’steem are taking on God Katious after he destroys 4 Times Square.

And when I look at the scenes of half the universe turning to dust I also have to wonder if Marvel Studios stole that from The Man WhoRules The World. Because when Katious kicks the bucket after his final confrontation with John Haynes that’s pretty close to how I imagined God Katious going out.

Unfortunately the screenwriters just couldn’t execute on concept. Because none of those scenes has any of the depth or emotional resonance that The Man Who Rules The World had as a story. With TMRTW, readers FELT the threat from God Katious. And they had a reason to CARE about the threat due to the fact that I used fewer characters and I had a much tighter story.

With Avengers: Infinity War there’s an effort to make this cosmic threat appear to be epic from a universal perspective, but sadly the story only scratches the surface. While there’s a lot of flash from the special effects, there’s no substance onscreen. In between the silly jokes and the uneven storytelling I saw was a film from a studio that has grown arrogant and complacent in the last decade. A studio that has taken the craft of filmmaking for granted. A studio that’s taken its audience for granted. A studio that has clearly lost its way.

Marvel Studios is headed down the same dark road that took down Joel Schumacher and The Salkinds. And I have a feeling they’re going to make a Batman & Robin, Superman IV or Last Jedi sooner rather than later.

If you like popcorn movies filled with superheroes, carnage, and explosions, then go ahead and waste 2.5 hours of your life on Avengers: Infinity War. But don’t expect much in terms of story, substance or anything that’ll resonate with you for years like the original Star Wars Trilogy or even some of those Star Trek: The Next Generation season finales. Like Part 1 of a Star Trek: The Next Generation Season Finale featuring time travel, this movie just sets up the second part where everything in this movie will all be CTRL+Z in the next movie.

If you want to see this story done right skip this movie and pick up The Man Who Rules The World in paperback.

Reflection of Final Work

My works are composed of images and performances, and the forms of presentation are installations. Inspired by me are the performance artists Joan Jonas and Yoko Ono. Because many of them combine performing arts with drama and dance, some theatre companies also Inspired me a lot, such as the Obsession of the Dutch Theatre Company and (A) Pollonia of the Polish Theatre Company. There are also many video artists and video artists, such as Christopher Marker, who have also inspired a lot of my video production.

First of all, I would like to talk about an important part of my work: performances. In terms of overall form and motivation, I was inspired mainly by the work of Joan Jonas, who demonstrated a critical deconstruction of the medium in the fields of sculpture, sketching, dance, video and performance art, mixing and merging them into A multi-level rich narrative designed to break the rules and regulations. In "Mirage", multiple screens and props form the setting of the theater. The projector displays the edited script. Next to it is a TV monitor, blackboard, and interactive sculpture. Jonas paints what she calls "Endless Drawing" on the blackboard. The projector shows the pre-recorded painting process. Jonas quickly drew a grid and crazily stomped on her feet. These body movements interweave with memories and accumulate into climaxes that coincide with the volcanic eruptions on the projection screen. In the works of The Juniper Tree and Reading Dante, artists perform live paintings and the painting process is part of the performance. The inspiration for live painting in my works is exactly the source here. A painting process will produce two effects. The result of the painting itself and the performance of the painting, combined with the content and rhythm of the video, combined into a multi-dimensional work form.

Video is indeed an important part of my work. Just like Jonas's video works, they have always occupied the space between independent works of art and archives. Pre-recorded video may become part of a performance show, and a performance show may also be the object of real-time projection. The past and present are intertwined and mixed, breaking the linearity of time and memory. Jonas gave different answers to the flexible mixing and juxtaposition of media to existential ontology, refuting the view that recording and processing would inevitably concretize the original performance.

Joan Jonas also added elements of national culture to her works. She possesses an outstanding ability: she can transform literary materials, ritual custom and non-Western cultural traditions into a mixture of specificities, challenging the expression of each media art. At the limit, after she watched the noh and Kabuki performances, she used Japanese masks and costumes in traditional drama to perform for a long time. The gesture of action was also stylized. This is also my choice in my own work. One of the reasons for the celestial burial ceremony of Tibetan culture, I took advantage of the form of the burial ceremony and used it to express the theme of fear.

Yoko Ono’s performing art, Cut Piece, also gave me a lot of inspirations. The content of the show was that several audience members randomly selected to be on the bench were asked to cut her clothes into pieces with scissors until they were naked. The work released a desire for completeness and a longing for love. The message, as it was cut into pieces, gained an outward communication in an internally traumatized world. The work was also a projection of human pain and loneliness. In the third performance in 2003, he invited the person who had lost her clothes on stage to take away the piece that he had cut and gave it to the one they loved. In my work, I painted on the spot according to the content of the video, and cut it down, and informed the participants that if they liked the story, they could take away a piece of debris. Although this process was based on the celestial burial ceremony, it was a concept of cutting it down. The concept of Cut Piece is very similar. Desire to eliminate darkness and fear, hoping to achieve salvation at the same time as destroying them, audience participation, these fears of my fears and narrators will become part of their hearts, regardless of whether they have obtained empathy, fear or strength. Will become part of them. Unlike Yoko Ono's work, perhaps many participants could not feel her inner thoughts from her single body language, and I directly expressed emotions through video and narrator's direct presentation and my own painting process. The reaction gave the audience.

In addition, several of the traditional plays that I've seen before using the new media approach also inspired me, such as Obsession, starring Jude Law. The play is adapted from a novel by director of a Belgian theater director, known as Art Director of Toneelgroep. In Amsterdam, the Netherlands, Van Hoof’s iconic style is an ultramodernist minimalist expression of drama tension through expressionism. The stage uses a video projection method to render emotions, while a Polish drama (A) Pollonia also uses this method and will The combination of video and video projection shows a sense of dislocation between space and time. The play used a large number of ancient Greek myths and literary works. Their forms were the source of my original ideas. At first I chose Japan. The novelist's novel was adapted into a script and he wanted to join a Chinese mythology story. He created a narrative story in the form of real-time video recording in a relatively traditional form, but after combining Joan Jonas's performance form, I adapted the work. More emotional and abstract, removed Narrative elements.

And video works like Chris Mark also gave inspiration to the imagery of my work. For example, Chris Marker movie runs through a female proverbial slang, Japan, Iceland and Guinea. Various images of Hong Kong intersect, but the author left the most time for Tokyo. He recorded the culture and life of the Japanese people, the iconic Lucky Cat, religious ceremonies, sexual culture, cartoons, railways, Pearl Harbor, rock music, and interspersed fragments of old movies. Attention, thinking about history and memory. It is also like reconstructing memories with images. It is neither real history nor fictional stories. It is a poem composed of pictures and sounds. My works also use sound as the main medium. When the narrator tells his story, I will use the things I photographed to combine the images and videos in some movies to abstractly reflect their fears. I will use the screen to organize the content and piece together the text, like writing an article in audio-visual language instead of shooting narrative film content.

And this assignment has made me more steadfast in my interest in art. After seeing many experimental videos, video installations, interactive shows and new media performances, I finally had the chance to try my own work. I am no longer a bystander. , I will become a participant. The most basic requirement of art for creators is to have the courage to dare to express. This is the basic of its existence. I always think that I am a timid and humble person. This is why I chose the theme of fear, and the burial of the sky. The reason why it looks very extreme but very religious form. This choice of interactive performances is helping me and even forcing me to take this step. This is the most important meaning to me. In this work I will also add to my fear story and hope that they can be eaten clean by “vulture”. If not, I will put it back in my heart and remind myself.

P to JK [Review!]

I got to see this last Monday! We all know I’m a Kamenashi Kazuya fangirl at heart so of course I went to see it! I went with my beautiful friend Adi and even during the trailers were freaking the fuck out! The trailers they showed were: Peach Girl, Shinobi no Kuni, Kodomo Tsukai, Utsukushii Hoshii. I think there was one more but I hath forgotten it. My friend freaked out everytime the trailers came on cos she’s a HUGE NEWS and Hey Say Jump Fan so naturally these trailers were for her xD

Now onto the movie!

Official Website here.

NON-SPOILER Review: This was an alright movie. I was overall disappointed and had a hard time dispensing disbelief. I had major problems with the age difference, Kouta’s motives to marry, and even with the parents’ thought process. But Kame is very, very pretty in this and the camera gave us some amazing Kame close ups (particularly of his eyes), and he gave a good performance and at one point we got Gokusen feels. Also thanks to Kame’s performance I cried at least twice xD Also, I am all for Kame and Mahiro doing a Buddy Cop movie together after this movie, especially after that one scene they did together in this movie! Mahiro was very good in this too just as I expected! Tsuchiya herself, surprisingly, didn’t annoy me which is good, but unfortunately her character was an immature train wreck. Seriously, only watch this if you’re a fan of Kame, Mahiro and/or the manga. Otherwise I don’t think you’ll like this.

Rating: It was originally a 7/10 but upon realising how much negativity and disappointment I have with this film, I’m putting it down to a 5.5/10. It might change upon a second or third viewing.

Now onto the SPOILER review.

If you didn’t know: P to JK stands for ‘Police and the High School Girl (Jyoushi Kousei)’ and was/is originally a manga.

The story follows our protagonist Kako who one day ends up at a goukon where guys try to get her to drink, Kouta walks in and takes her drink because she doesn’t want to drink it. After the party she thanks him for taking the pressure of drinking off her and he warms to her immediately; but moments later learns that she’s still just a high school girl. He gets angry and in fear she runs away from him, but ends up in a back alley where a gang is and they try to make a move on her; luckily he comes to the rescue and reveals he’s a police officer. Unfortunately during the police capture, she gets attacked and ends up in hospital. Once conscious she wakes up to find Kouta next to her and he asks her to marry him. Abrupt but happy she accepts and eventually her family comes around too, thus they start living together and the story begins.

Unfortunately the first part of this review is very negative and has heavy language so if you want to get to the positive and fun parts then please CTRL + F to ‘Now onto the good stuff’.

Now I say ‘eventually her family comes around too’ but her family give it like 3 seconds thought and go ‘okay’. This movie really did not sit with me. I know it’s supposed to be a fake situation and (hopefully) in the real world this would never happen but I was really pissed that they family were like ‘oh but she’s only 16.... oh okay go and marry her and live together in your house!’ and I’m like ‘She’s a fucking kid!! Why not say ‘well after a few months of dating we’ll give you a decision’?!?!?!!? Are you seriously just gunna let your 16 year old daughter marry a guy she only just met?! Just cos he’s an ‘upstanding’ police officer?! It’s her first boyfriend too?! HOW UNREALISTIC ARE YOU?! FIRST LOVES DO NOT (most of the time) STAY TOGETHER?!!?!?!? GIVE THEM FUCKING ROOM TO DATE FIRST?!?!?’ omg I can’t, I’m getting angry now thinking about it. You all understand me right? Am I FUCK gunna hand my daughter over to someone straight away. FUCK that. and at 16 fucking years old?! What the fuck....

ANYWAY... *no wait there’s more*

AND she’s so fucking immature too!! Here I go again. I cannot... she starts dating him and straight away is cleaning the house daily and cooking for him and being all smiley and it’s like ‘you immature prick’ and then he walks in late one night, obviously a little grumpy and tired after a long night, and goes for a bath and she gets all red and embarrassed and it’s like ‘fucking grow up bitch. You should NOT be in that house if you’re gunna go red at even the mention of him taking a shower.’ AND another thing! She’s all like ‘oooh at the festival will you were a school uniform so we can walk around holding hands and no one will suspect. It’ll be the best date! It’s my dream! Please do it!’ and it’s like ‘this girl is SO immature and SO unready for a real relationship if she has such silly thoughts like that!’ Seriously, I am not doing justice to how immature and child-like and simple minded this idiot is. Just watch the movie.

And KOUTA!! This DICK. Why the fuck did you propose to a SIXTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL about 5 hours after meeting her?! You’re 26 years old, you should know better. And you should know just how fantastical and deluded a 16 year old girl is about first loves, marriage etc. It really was stupid of you to propose to her. You’re just a immature and careless and illogical as she (and her family) is. Now I know with parental consent you can get married but seriously, isn’t 16 and 26 viable for a pedophillic charge regardless of parent consent? I’m trying to think, if this happened in the UK, the law would most likely look at pedophilic charges and aspect, rather than accepting that the parents gave consent. Especially when it’s a police officer and a high school girl. I could be wrong but I just get that feeling.

And during the entire movie, even when she asked ‘why did you propose so suddenly?’ we (the audience and her) were never once told why you did it, which really is frustrating.

Also the dynamic for me just didn’t work at all; it really did look more like brother and sister rather than husband and wife or boyfriend and girlfriend. Even during the actual PRs and advertisements with the actors, the’re no real chemistry between them, they just look like older brother and younger sister.

Yes I understand this story isn’t to be taken so seriously and is fiction and such, but I just could not help getting so annoyed and angry at these points of the story. To be honest: If the movie and the characters had actually taken time to date and get to know each other and allow the parents months to consider giving their daughter away and such before getting married, then I think a lot of my problems would become irrelevant. But alas, this didn’t happen and thus my rage of the bizarrity of it all is here.

Also the ending was very, very stupid. They finally reunited and decided to start over and then they hold hands and run through the school and as they run, other classmates start to join in and clap along almost like it’s a music video which I thought was totally bizarre and was a really silly way to end it. It didn’t look good.

Okay, now to calm down....

---

Now onto the good stuff!

Kame is soooo adorable in this! And he looks so good in it! Seriously, the prettiness level and his gorgeousness level is perfect in this movie!! There’s a scene at the end where he’s confessing his love and the camera is only close up on his eyes and you literally cannot look away! They are SO enticing and captivating! Also, I had to laugh when he was walking at one point because he was completely walking as Kame rather than as Kouta and I found it super funny.

As for his performance, it was very good! I’ve never said Kame is a good actor or a bad actor or a decent actor or an incredible actor. I’ve never evaluated his acting seriously because why would I do that when he’s my bias. I’m going to enjoy his acting and be deluded to it if it is in fact bad. BUT in this one, I can confidently say that he can act. There’s two scenes where he’s crying and I was so touched and he even goes on step further to ugly, loud wail crying which takes so talent and I was in streams of tears alongside him.

I also enjoyed the first scene where he realises Kako is 16 years old and suddenly his personality does a complete 180 switch and that sudden change was very good! Well done Kame ^-^

Kouta’s backstory is very touching and very sad but I really enjoyed seeing that side of him. Also seeing Kame trying to play a student again was enjoyable to see xD and with his long hair -- I miss his long hair... Unfortunately (as mentioned above) we don’t get any explanation as to why he suddenly wanted to marry Kako - even when she and audience even ask him why - which makes Kouta less awesome. Among other reasons already stated.

Kame also makes us super nostalgic when he decides to dress up as a high schooler for the Culture Festival, and he’s in this black uniform and light brown wig and I suddenly went ‘are we back in Gokusen?!’ because he seriously has no changed, he looked exactly the same in that outfit in the movie, as he did in Gokusen which was... 12 years ago! It was such a nostalgic and good moment!

I also really like his character Kouta’s realtionship and chemistry and dynamic with Kei who is played by Takasugi Mahiro. I really, really enjoyed their part of the story and how without Kei knowing, Kouta sees his past self in Kei and that’s why he’s trying desperately to save and help him. Kei comes from a single mother household and his mother is with a guy who is drunk every day and just comes ‘home’ to take her money so he can go back out drinking and he physically abuses Kei on multiple occasions. Kouta notices and while at first he didn’t like Kei, once he got to know him more and saw his situation and also how even Kako is trying to help Kei have a nicer life, he comes around and while they’re still somewhat cold towards each other, their conversations and dynamic is so good!

Especially!! Just after Kouta changes in High school clothing, he walks out of the changing room and sees Kei dressed up in cop clothes which is hilarious! And then they end up trying to save Kako together (while still in those outfits) and they come up with a plan together and it’s so good! I was like ‘Can we have a Kouta x Kei Cop Story dorama?! Because I would kill for them to be partners in a dorama together!!’ seriously, there was more chemistry between them two than Kouta and Kako; I was all for Kei and Kouta getting together xD especially because (unlike more high school romance movies as of late) while Kei IS the second male lead, he never really confesses to Kako, I mean it’s obvious he likes her but he’s not so attached that he MUST have her or try to take her, so it makes sense that the Kouta x Kei relationship would shine through more. Especially cos Kouta tries to save him multiple times <3

Takasugi Mahiro... I’ve always loved him as an actor, I’ve seen him act since he was a little tiny boy and just started as an actor, (by that I mean since he was 16), and I’ve always loved everything he’s done, I know he’s capable, he’s a very popular actor, and of course he did not disappoint in this <3

And of course there’s Tsuchiya Tao; I’ve never been keen on her but since I saw her run the marathon on Tokyo TV I gained some respected for her and cut her some slack. And in this I could easily enjoy her performance. She did good. It’s just unfortunate that the character was naive as fuck and ridiculously immature and deluded.

---

I think that is all I have to say. I would only recommend this movie to: Kame fans, Mahiro fans, Tao fan, fans of the original manga AND those obsessed with Japanese high school romance movies. Everyone else, don’t bother. I don’t think you will enjoy it.
