"Chen Qing Ling": Why is TV series destined to be less than anime?

, ​​as the most popular anime theme last year, "The Master of the Demon Dao" with its delicate and elegant ink style, excellent picture quality, and huge story structure, and the protagonists Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji, Jiang Cheng, Wen Ning , Jin Guangyao and other young martial arts leaders' love, hatred and enmity have gained the attention of countless fans.



and this year’s comic change live-action TV series "Chen Qing Ling", borrowed from the basic story framework of "Magic Dao Zu Shi", selected the new generation of actors who debuted in general selections, and used big IP with fresh blood gimmicks to reduce " Some of the plots in "The Master of the Devil" are not suitable for the audience, exaggerating the "personal halo" and "character characteristics" in the plot, allowing themselves to maintain a high degree of topicality and fan support.




However, the innate contrast between "Magic Master" and "Chen Qingling" is still relatively large, because of the difference in themes and expressions, the anime version has maintained a high reputation, and the TV drama version relies on the exposure rate and the character halo. The momentum has not diminished, but the reputation has been tepid, and even the most basic character relationships have been tampered with because of the overexamination of the plot.




Generally speaking, it is difficult for anime adaptation of film and television series to surpass the death of the original animation and still cannot change. Investigate the reasons, we can slowly analyze the following points!

1·The way of dissemination determines the performance of the content, so TV dramas are bound to reduce the performance of animation.




First of all, the dissemination channels and audience groups of anime and TV series are different, resulting in completely different production risks between the two. Animation focuses on network communication, so the censorship is much smaller, and the way of expression seems unscrupulous. TV dramas will be disseminated through both the Internet and TV stations. Moreover, TV stations have a wider audience and have to face more viewers’ concerns about content. Therefore, the censorship is relatively strict. Therefore, in terms of performance methods, online animation is bound to It's more explosive and bloody than the content of the TV series!




Because of the special attributes of animation-animation wants to win the attention of the audience, it is bound to be more bloody and violent in narrative strength! Therefore, its performance is more direct and even more unscrupulous than TV series!




There are many scenes showing Wei Wuxian's ghost techniques in "The Demon Dao Zushi", and when they are put into TV dramas, they seem too vicious and untimely.




What's more, the core of "The Demon Master" is still a drama of "two male protagonists falling in love and killing each other". Such a scale and connotation are too deviant for today's mainstream TV series viewers, which will affect the spread and broadcast reputation of the TV series. Therefore, in order to fully show the TV series, it is necessary to foster a female role in the plot that can be equal to the two male protagonists, as a singularity to balance men and women.




Therefore, the warmth in the TV series has become this glorious backer, who is responsible for downplaying the "brotherhood" among several major male characters and increasing the emotional clues between men and women. However, apart from the fact that Jin Jin Xuanjiang is disgusted with such a well-known couple CP in the original plot, she has too many relationships to balance, so she has emotional intersections with each of the main characters, forming a warm and merciful emotion, and the emotions Changes are unreasonable. As a result, Doutou was brought into the group by the original fan Tucao to add drama,After being complained about by the plot fans, all the pots that the screenwriter threw in order to pass the trial were carried by the characters. It is a pity for the actress who took this role!



2. The performance status of TV series actors is not as stable as anime line characters. After the character status of




is finalized, there are few changes. Therefore, the character image expressed by the painter has been able to maintain the best state of presenting the plot and character state to the audience.




Moreover, because it is a relatively simple line to show the characters, it is important to be able to use the advantages of the lines to the extreme and always keep the characters in the most beautiful and best state. Although




lacks the real touch of a real person, it can maintain the “beautiful” or “strength” styling at all times, and break through the limits of human action to complete some more exaggerated action shots that meet audience expectations. The benefits are enough to attract audiences who are pursuing aesthetics and perfection!




However, TV series need to use real actors to complete the role modeling. The perfect looks and body lines of those characters in anime must be reduced to their true appearance in reality. Although many actors currently use various methods to adapt themselves to comic characters, and the new generation pursues exquisite and delicate appearance, they are also tossing themselves according to the appearance and body shape of anime characters!




Unfortunately, there is a natural gap between the elasticity of the human body and the lines of anime characters. Therefore, until now, comics and TV dramas, especially those starring in the new generation, have rarely been recognized by fans of the original work on the cast!



The casting director of "Chen Qing Ling" was confused by the choice of roles, which caused a linear decline in the quality of the drama, which can be pulled out by fans and whipped a hundred times a hundred times.




First of all, the two male protagonists who shoulder the heavy responsibility of the plot feel that the roles should be reversed. Xiao Zhan's appearance now more and more closely resembles Huo Jianhua, walking with a cold and misty, self-disciplined cold wind. Moreover, the overall performance style also inherited the pros and cons of Huo Jianhua-on the good side, playing that kind of indifferent role can hold the air, and he is born with a kind of alienated aristocracy, but on the other hand, he does not have that kind of humanity. With the smell of fireworks, it seems unnatural to play a role like Wei Wuxian who escapes from nonsense.




and Wang Yibo's costume and performance have become a major pain point in the overall performance-Lan Wangji, who looks like a cold star, was turned into a sleeper who stayed up all night in the nightclub last night!

3. Because of the special effects and the ability to build scenes, the theme of the TV series has been reduced.

Speaking of which, all evil in the world comes from poverty. By extension, the reality of the animation system excludes the actor factor, and it is completely dependent on taking money to persuade and special effects to support the scene.



If you have the wealth of Disney with so many reality parks, even if you take out the original Shakespeare script that is hundreds of years old and remake, Costumes, makeup, props, scenes, special effects, and cast can make the movie full.

can be replaced by another production team. If the funds are slightly insufficient, the effect of the shot will be as shabby as a grass team.


Because TV shows require real features, many scenes cannot be restored. And because of the limitation of production costs, many special effects that need to be displayed are also weakened accordingly. Therefore, the magical techniques of Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji and others in "The Master of the Devil" have been reduced a lot in the TV series version.




Moreover, because of the lack of real scene blessing, the close-up shots of the scenery that often appear in anime have been diluted a lot. (After all, the magnificent scenery and scenes must be famous and beautiful in order to achieve the spirit of the original scenes. And such scenes naturally require a lot of funding to complete the sampling and shooting of the location. And even if the location collection is completed, the actors are performing live. It is still superposition in the later stage, which requires financial support and the professionalism of the actor. This is a large amount of funds to complete!)




Many large scenes and large depth shots cannot be realized in real scenes, so they are deleted and animated Many of the fast-moving and fast-advancing shots used to highlight the narrative were also cancelled due to technical reasons. The fast-paced scenes of these large scenes and the elimination of the camera voice have reduced the overall narrative power a lot and become soft and weak. And there are many male characters, and in the plot of the huge conflict between the rivers and lakes as the main theme, it becomes the original sin to interpret that fierce and collision into soft charm and weakness.




To sum up, "Chen Qingling" uses the "speculation" trick to eliminate some of the shortcomings of anime adaptation, so that the characters floating in the clouds in the comics become real characters in life, and gain some Supported by CP fans.




But in essence, the theme and effect of "Chen Qingling" due to funding problems are still a bit poor. Moreover, due to the jerky acting skills of the actor, the violent stepping on the original fans was still unable to make "Chen Qingling" rise from the reputation of the period costume dramas of the same period and achieve a leading position.
