My Animation Era

The whole life depends on the blue arc.

Lan Hu's ability to survive is one of the best in the entire Chinese comic industry.

Although sometimes we have to make bad jobs like Ultraman, we can also make good jobs like "Ultra Beast Arms" and "Iron Armored Insect".

The Fruit Treasure Special Attack is a representative of the blue arc series.

Let's not talk about "Fruit Strike 1" including the previous work "The Three Jelly Musketeers". It is so imaginative that it takes "jelly men" as the protagonists and gives these jelly men a name full of martial arts. The creativity is definitely worthy of praise.

But the follow-up Gobao Special Attack 2's ability to survive has declined.

Fruit 2 is not a bad film, and it is understandable as a sequel. But compared to the high-intensity work of Guobao 1, Guobao 2 is indeed mediocre, and the viewing experience is not as enjoyable as the first season.

Therefore, when the production of the "Fruit Attack" series reached its third season, Lan Hu once again opened up his imagination and created a unique job for the audience!

Year 2014.

The original motivation at this point in time is to produce the big movie "The Adventures of Pegasus", Fantawild is working on "New Year's Goods of Bears", Hong Meng is working on the preschool education film "Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Happy Literacy", and Xuanji is working on "Qin Shi Mingyue" "The King of the World"...

No future!

It seems that Lan Arc's peers are doing poorly, and each sequel is less interesting than the last, which is really disappointing.

So at the same time, Lan Hu, who learned from the lessons of the second season, decided to launch the third season of the TV animation of the "Fruit Attack" series.

This time they are going to do something new!

But what kind of work should be done? The good things in the Fruit Baby series are almost complete, and the rest are all bad things...

After thinking hard for a long time, Lan Hu finally came up with a unique job that would make people's jaws drop.

Time travel!

That's right, this time "Fruit Attack" doesn't play the same trick as before, but goes through the flow.

Actually, seriously.

There is really not much difference in the level of the plots of the Fruity Attack trilogy. It’s just that the creativity of the first part is relatively new, and the third part introduces the concept of time travel, so the second part seems mediocre and boring.

Let’s talk about the third season.

In this season's "Fruit Attack", the screenwriter's imagination went so far as to let Pineapple Fubuki replace Orange Liuxiang and become the first protagonist of the animation. This move is undoubtedly very bold.

But judging from the results, the effect of Pineapple Blowing Snow as the first protagonist is actually not bad.

This is not the point.

The point is that in order to save Colorful Lotus’s last hope for recovery, Pineapple Blowing Snow not only traveled back to the fruit world of the Three Kingdoms period with Turtle Taigong, but even replaced Liu Bei at that time.

During this period, he got acquainted with the ancestors of the Guobao Special Attacks, Zhang Fei who looked like Lu Xiaoguo, Guan Yu who looked like Orange Liuxiang, and Zhuge Liang who looked like Xiao Guoding...

This idea is so cool!

To this day, Gu Miao feels that the idea of ​​​​Guobao 3 is very cool. Traveling back to the Three Kingdoms era, familiar characters play different identities, and the program is indeed very effective.

certainly!

The top quality of Fruit Baby 3 is not only the program effects, but also the incredibly cool mecha design.

"I dare say that this is the best-designed mecha in the "Fruit Attack" series, bar none!"

Gu Miao was not afraid of being slapped in the face.

The series of mechas in Fruit Baby 3 are indeed top-notch in terms of appearance alone, there is no doubt about this.

To put it harshly, if Fruit Baby 3 had not had some problems in the plot later, and it was suspected of being unfinished, it would have really hoped to surpass the first season and become the most classic season of TV animation in the series.

Let me add something by the way.

In fact, it would be good if the plot of Fruit 4 can be compared to Fruit 3, at least it is expected to become a classic.

It's a pity that I didn't connect...

There are different opinions on why the plot of Fruit Baby 4 is not connected to Fruit Baby 3. Gu Miao doesn’t know the specific situation. Anyway, it is Lan Hu’s good deeds.

Ignoring Fruit Baby 4 for the moment, and excluding the problem of digging holes in the later stage and not filling in the suspected unfinished work, looking at it alone, Fruit Baby 3 is really a good work.

The plot is online, the special effects are full, and the comedy is passionate... Gu Miao still approves of Lan Huzheng's work.

Just recognition is recognition.

Gu Miao was still hesitant about whether to tell Mr. Xiong about the time travel idea of ​​Fruit Baby 3.

It’s not that he thinks that Mr. Bear can’t handle the theme of Three Kingdoms Travel, but that he suspects that if the Fruit Baby 3 project is in Mr. Bear’s hands, it might end up like the original version.

It would be too miserable to dig a hole but not fill it.

…

In order to test the production team under Mr. Little Bear, Gu Miao gave them a difficult problem.

In one month, a new set of pineapple war treasures, orange war treasures and small fruit war treasures were designed that took into account both ancient style and technological concepts.

If the production team under Mr. Little Bear can complete this task within a month, and the designed mecha meets Gu Miao's standards, then you can safely hand over the "Fruit Attack 3" project to them.

If he couldn't do it, or the designed Fruit Treasure mecha didn't meet the standards set by Gu Miao, then he would have to consider whether to let Wanbao take action in person for the third season of Fruit Treasure Attack.

The second season suffered greatly.

If the third season continues to rest on its laurels, then "Fruits 3" may be the last song of this series.

Gu Miao could not just sit idly by and ignore both emotion and reason.

Lei Sudeng struggled repeatedly for a long time before his death. There is no reason for a work like "Fruit Attack" to just watch it die.

It's time to save...

Similar examples include a series of old animations such as "Dragon Fighter", "The Little Master of China" and "Light Envoy".

These old animations have also launched many sequels in the past few years, but the response has generally been mediocre.

Among them, the one with the most unsatisfactory results is undoubtedly "Little Master of China 2".

The second season of Little Master mainly tells the story of Little Master wandering in the neon country, competing with various neon masters in cooking skills, fighting against the dark cooking world, and finally retrieving legendary kitchen utensils.

honestly……

There's absolutely no fault in the production of Little Master 2, and the plot can't be said to be bad. It basically follows the same pattern as the first season.

But it just lacks some innovation.

The setting of glowing food and drugged food may make your eyes light up when you first watch it, but if you watch it too much, you will inevitably get a little aesthetic fatigue.

At this time, the audience will naturally be lost.

To avoid this situation, you need to add some new things to the sequel, such as new settings and bold innovations in the story.

Obviously, the second season did a poor job in this regard, and there was basically no so-called innovation.

Therefore, the response to the second season of Little Master TV was far worse than expected. It was even criticized by many viewers as changing the soup without changing the medicine, making two seasons of the same project, etc...

This also requires Gu Miao to find a way.

Xiaodangjia is Wanbao's most proud brand in the field of gourmet food. If even this brand collapses, will Wanbao still have a good gourmet show?

Counting on the magic chef Xiao Fugui? !

The problem is, Xiao Fugui can't make a sequel either...
