My Animation Era

"Hello, viewers, welcome to the 128th episode of "Old Liu's Talk", I am Liu Zida!"

"As we all know, the finale of the animation "Lightbringer" aired last night, and Lao Liu's circle of friends was almost flooded by the Sun King."

"I believe many viewers must be curious, what is the origin of this Sun King? Why does the sun appear in the battle that takes place on the moon?"

"Then, in this episode, Old Liu will take you to study about the Sun King..."

The video finished quickly.

Taking a bite of the freshly peeled apple, Gu Miao asked calmly: "The Sun King is not a combination of three machines, but exists independently?"

"That's what he meant."

Huang Kun said with a smile: "According to him, the three light envoys did not merge. It was just the thoughts of the warriors that summoned the Sun King."

"Nonsense!"

Gu Miao snorted: "In the animation setting, the Sun King is the fusion of three light energy users, how come it becomes the summoned body?"

"because……"

"The Sun King made an appearance once in the middle of the plot. Coupled with his body design, it is obviously not like a combined machine." Huang Kun explained.

That makes sense.

The body design of Sun King does not look like the "combined" version. After all, all combined machines have one characteristic, that is, you can tell which sub-machine it is from every part.

The Sun King is so special.

There is absolutely no trace of the designs of Lightbringer, Stormbringer and Wavebringer in his modeling design. It looks like a completely independent individual.

But in the setting and animation plot, the Sun King really appears as a fusion of three warriors.

This sense of abnormality...

If I had to make an analogy, it would be the relationship between the "Five Elements of Light and Shadow Armor" and the "Emperor's Man".

Obviously in the setting of the first season of TV, the Emperor Man was summoned by a combination of the Five Elements Armor, but the first impression it gave people did not look like a "fusion".

how to say?

When you see Emperor Man, your first impression is that this should be an "independent" set of armor, rather than five sets of armor combined.

Probably Aofei also noticed it.

Therefore, in the later Armored Warriors Theatrical Edition, including the setting, Emperor Man also changed from "five-person summons" to "one-person summons".

So does the Sun King.

It is obviously a combination of Lightbringer, Stormbringer and Wavebringer, but it feels like an independent machine.

There is a lot of controversy online about this.

After the finale of the animation "Lightbringer" was broadcast, the audience was talking a lot about the final "golden light", the Sun King who killed the evil god of darkness with a knife.

Some people think that the Sun King is not a fusion, but the original body summoned by the three warriors.

Some people think that the origin of the Sun King may not be that simple, because the story of "Lightbringer" takes place on the moon.

In the story that happened on the moon, what sense of presence will you have if you, the "sun", come out?

If the name were changed to Moon King, it would almost match the main storyline of the story. But the story of the moon involves the sun, which is a bit too far-fetched.

What?

You said that the light of the moon comes from the reflection of sunlight. Without the sun, there would be no moon?

Blanch!

Everyone is discussing "magic" here. What does the phrase "scientific common sense" mean? Bullying everyone has not read books and does not understand astronomy, right?

all in all.

The origin and identity of the Sun King are indeed full of doubts in the eyes of the audience. There are many places that are difficult to explain based on plot settings alone.

"Just think of it as digging a hole."

Gu Miao said nonchalantly: "Although the story of Yao Dadi and the Demon King of Earth has been told, there must be some suspense left in order to make a sequel in the future, right?"

"Will the sequel still be Yao Dadi?"

Huang Kun touched his chin and said with a somewhat puzzled expression: "I have noticed that Yao Dadi's identity seems to be quite mysterious."

"Oh? What did you find?"

"Is such that……"

Huang Kun explained to Gu Miao a small detail he discovered while watching the animation "Light Envoy".

At the end of the story, when the protagonist group went to the holy land of Luna, Yao Dadi mobilized others to join forces to make a super large music box.

The sound emitted by this music box actually restored the strength and clarity of the giant who supported the Holy Land Luna.

Sounds normal, right?

But the problem is that the music played by the earth to the giant is the music that comes with the music box he brought from the earth.

Not a divine song!

If it is the music of Holy Land Luna, it is normal for the giant to regain his strength after listening to it. After all, it is the music of God! But the music box brought by Dadi from the earth actually has the same effect?

Something is wrong.

Then think of the mysterious parents of Earth, and the fact that Earth was inexplicably visited by Guliguli, and was finally selected as a "Magic Warrior" by Granny Mei.

Obviously, the character of Dadi has the same "destined savior" characteristics as Xiaodu.

Travel to the moon and be involved in an epic adventure, saving the world by the way. Who is not curious about the origin of his identity?

"Forehead!"

"I think……"

After listening to Huang Kun's narration, Gu Miao couldn't help but cover her forehead and said, "You may be thinking too much!"

How could there be so much "foreshadowing"!

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that "Lightbringer" is a follow-up game released by Risheng Company in a hurry to capitalize on the popularity of "Dragon Fighter" by selling a few more toys.

If we have to say how rich the connotation of this animation is, it would be an "over-interpretation".

"Don't think you are so awesome!"

"The popularity of "Light Messenger" and the love of so many children are mainly due to the design of the machine." Gu Miao explained.

Plot?

In Chuangjie Mountain, you have to go through levels one after another. In Rabbit Moon, you still have to go through levels one after another. The plot is always the same old Japanese RPG routine.

What makes animation popular and attracts children's attention is never the plot.

But a unique body design!

Speaking of which, there is actually a small detail that many people may not know.

In the animation "Lightbringer", the "Miscellaneous Soldier" robots sent by the evil tribe, viewers who have watched the Gundam series, I believe they can see the "Zhao ancient flavor".

Why is this?

Very simple!

Because the person who designed the body of the anime "Lightbringer" was none other than the designer of the classic Gundam series RX-78-2, and one of Neon's earliest animation practitioners who did "machine design", Kunio Okawara.

Didn't you expect that?

The body shape of the Lightbringer is actually related to Gundam! It can even be said that the two "learned from the same school."

Is this considered the illegitimate son of Gundam?

With such a "mechanical" master at the helm, it becomes reasonable for "Lightbringer" to attract so many viewers, surpassing "Dragon Fighter" in ratings and setting a new high.

after all……

Which boy can resist the temptation from "Gundam"?

Let me complain, the dragon fighter's mecha has a weird head-to-body ratio. On the contrary, the proportions of the Light Envoy are more in line with Chinese aesthetics...
