I declare that Lonely Rock is this year's October Supremacy

have never seen such real social terror in animation.

The animation is divided into quarters and the movie is scheduled. It's October, and it's time for a new wave of new broadcasts. This year's October new show, in many respects, is a season with considerable room for discussion. In terms of the lineup, its "luxury" level can be said to be even better than that in April of "Fighting with Immortals".

The "strong" lineup headed by " Chainsaw Man " includes "Gundam"'s first female protagonist work "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury" ", the continuation of the April craze "Spy Playing the House Part 2", "Death: A Thousand Years of Blood War", which makes people call Ye Qinghui, and the masterpiece "100% Psionic Power Season 3" of the Bone Club. The pictures of

are really rich enough to make one’s heart tremble

In addition, although it was all released in September, "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Sea Part 2" is actually a member of the new October army -- if If you want to force the classification, then "Cyberpunk: Edgewalker" can also be classified into this season.

finished "JOJO's Bizarre Adventure: Sea of ​​Stones Part 2" in one breath, and now some people have forgotten the plot. In addition to the topic of

, there are many interesting works in this season's new show. "Detective Conan: Mr. Prisoner", which spit out your "Conan" groove, "The Second Season of the Daily Life of Pops and Pipi Beauty", which continued to be nervous, and "The Four People Each Has a Secret" of "Suzumiya Haruhi Ecstasy" ", as well as "Akihabara Underworld War", which is "a screenwriter can only write it if he drinks too much", etc., to name a few.

Each of the four has a secret setting, which really reminds people of the group leader's "universe, future superpower..." Lu's works take turns in battle, and the scene of the new show in October this year highlights a "hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend".

The name of this picture is "Spy Playing Home"

However, although the lineup is very luxurious, it is foreseeable that most people's discussions about the new October show this year will still focus on those "hegemony" . Under the influence of the publicity investment at all costs, under the influence of the unprecedented boom in April, and driven by the name "Gundam", "Chainsaw Man", "Spy Play Part 2" and "Mobile Suit Gundam: Mercury's Witch" There is no doubt that it will be the Big Three of the new program in October.

Fujimoto and "Chainsaw Man", as unquestionable Uranus superstars in the comics industry in recent years, have made waves in the animation industry. As early as when they announced "animation", they could already be imagined. Even if the controversy over seiyuu and 3D graphics is still lingering, it can't stop it from becoming the animation everyone is watching in October. After the first episode of

was broadcast, the entire social media was playing "find the difference", and everyone could not wait to use a magnifying glass to see which famous movies were paid tribute in the OP.

After the animation was broadcast, the related and were already very popular. Because of the influx of new materials, they reached new heights, and related memes became all over the floor. Both are.

For example, a famous dog-loving killer

Machima has an increasing number of Cos Cos, and the healing interaction between Dianji and Pochita can be seen everywhere, about the warm daily life of the male mother Qiu and the family's neuropathy, I want to show Machima The new audience of being a dog is like a crucian carp crossing the river.

There is a simple and quite outrageous wish in everyone's heart - can "Chainsaw Man"daily change. The "Gundam" on the other end of

has quite a few things to talk about. In the first few episodes, whoever sees the heroine wants to get married, this game has a nickname of "Mercury's Succubus".

The girls' marriage, duel, and campus life, with a high sense of sight, let everyone discover that on the first floor of Dahanoi is obsessed with "Girls' Revolution".

is "The Witch of Mercury" on the top, and "Girls Revolution" OP on the bottom. It can be said that they are in the same line. . The most interesting thing about

is that the daily campus story of "Beautiful Girl Posts" has allowed "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury" to accept a considerable number of refugees who feel "uneasy" since the end of "Likris" .

maybe... to include Hideo Kojima?

If you bring "Spy Playing Home", which will definitely bring discussions in the future, then there is no doubt that under the influence of the "information cocoon room", the discussion about the new program in October will be a "Three Kingdoms". situation.

However, to everyone's surprise, the appearance of a pink-haired girl broke this seemingly unshakable pattern.

An ordinary working day, an ordinary afternoon, social media, netizen forums, and unknown chat groups were suddenly captured by a "don't want to work" emoji. The girl's sincere affection and visceral fear of work and society has conquered countless social animals and quasi-social animals hidden in the Internet.

, a girl with a guitar on her back, quickly aroused everyone's curiosity. With the gradual understanding, her unexpected but real social fear performances in daily life have resonated with many audiences.

's emoji package and video screenshots about her also began to spread in various groups.

is embarrassed, embarrassed, inarticulate, and has a low self-esteem, which makes her show a distinctive temperament in many "beautiful girl stickers" animations.

Every word she talks with people, she can't help but ask herself "is it too boring" and "is what I said very embarrassing". These inner OS, as long as the audience with some social fear, should be able to feel the same.

In order to escape her doomed job, she would soak in a bathtub of ice water for 30 minutes in order to catch a cold and avoid going to work.

In order to ensure that no one in high school knew her, she chose a high school two hours away from her home, which shocked her friends who lived near the school.

Once she starts talking normally with strangers, she will soon be gripped by a strong communication disorder and become very stuttering.

After a period of normal communication with people, when faced with a request to further socialize, she would cringe and say bluntly, "Today's conversation balance has been used up, I want to go home."

In the face of her difficult daily communication, she will quickly and uncontrollably choose to escape, find a dark and small place to hide and "draw circles".

There is always a small theater in her heart, and every occasion that makes her feel nervous, she plays itUnder the influence of flying imagination and fear, there are many interesting and wonderful plots that are quite suitable for the daily experience of many social terrorists.

thought of the failure of the performance, her inner reaction was to apologize.

In addition, like many senior social terrorists, she has no friends in real life, and has a group of imaginary friends to accompany her.

But these real communication disorder symptoms do not appear gloomy and heavy under her interpretation. Her uninterrupted "inner little theater" and the expression packs that are being produced all the time, in a relatively daily and peaceful scene, dilute the tension caused by this topic, so that everyone can feel more relaxed. The mentality faced the embarrassment she encountered.

not only shows the manifestations of social phobia from all angles and angles, but also relies on excellent facial skills and inner broken thoughts to present this kind of dark and heavy character into a very cute and lovable character. This unique character and charisma have made this social fear girl win more and more flowers and applause from the audience.

Gradually, the situation of "Three Points in the World" in October's new show was also broken by this girl. This work has also become the best new show in October in the minds of many people.

The girl's name is "Goto Ichiri" (or Goto Du, which is a Japanese homonym), and her nickname is "Little Lonely".

And the name of this animation is called "Lonely Rock". It tells the story of "Goto Ichiri", a high school student who is afraid of society, meets other partners and forms a band to perform together.

In each quarterly new show, in addition to those works that are sure to be popular at first glance, there are always a few "dark horses" that will bring people unexpected surprises, such as "The new show in January this year". Dressing Dolls Falling in Love, April's "Party Rogue Zhuge Kongming" and "Love Will Conquer the World".

These "dark horses" always have an unexpectedly excellent look and feel, as well as unexpected and interesting story trends. And "Lonely Rock" is the darkest "dark horse" in the "Fairy War" season in October.

This is not my family's word. In fact, on major social media, the volume of "Lonely Rock" has gradually formed, and it is together with the other two outstanding daily programs " Heading to the Mountain Season 4 " and "Do it yourself" Also known as the "True Three Phantom Gods". The three big hits mentioned above have to be a little later for them.

The netizens with the disease even used the most famous stereotype "Why is Lonely Rock a God?" as a sentence pattern, and created a series of "small compositions" to praise the greatness of "Lonely Rock".

is difficult to prove in an isolated case, and there are more authoritative data in this regard.

On the famous rating website Bangumi, the current October new show, "Lonely Rock" has a score of 8.3 points, which is the highest audience rating among all the October new shows. It not only defeated "Chainsaw Man" and "Spy Over". Family" and "Mobile Suit Gundam: The Witch of Mercury", even beat all the new October games.

And in the "Most Popular Female Characters" survey, "Goto Ichiri" also defeated Miss Marchima by a huge margin and became "the first heroine of the new October show" - it seems , those who shouted "to be Miss Machima's dog" were not as many as they had imagined.

As for why "Lonely Rock" can stand out from the "encirclement and interception" of the "big gods", it should not be difficult for everyone to see the clues from the emoticons of the "little loneliness" in front of them.

Of course, as an animation, excellent production is one of the reasons why Lonely Rock is so beloved. Although the production is excellent,It doesn't completely determine whether the animation is popular, but it does not lose the standard in this regard, which is undoubtedly a plus.

"Lonely Rock" is above the standard, CloverWorks has enough funds, but in addition to the painting, some changes and ideas in the performance of this work make this work different from the ordinary "beautiful girl stickers" animation. Unique look and feel. On the lens, this work is not only the switching of ordinary close-up, medium-range and long-range shots. In many cases, special lenses such as large wide-angle lens , fisheye lens and so on are used to show the relationship between characters and the emotions of characters.

is like a little lonely in the classroom wearing a band shirt, looking at rock magazine, with a bunch of this scene around the band, if it weren't for this wide-angle lens, that kind of alone in the crowd, no one cares but gradually strengthened Embarrassment and pressure, it is estimated that it cannot be presented so strongly.

In addition, constantly switching the style of painting, so that Xiao Lonely often appears in the image of "cute", is also a good way to dilute the gloomy mood brought by the social fear of people to the audience. And this also brings another benefit-the expression packs related to little loneliness are increasing at an unusually terrifying rate, and after almost every episode is played, the audience can cut out several nine-square expression packs from the plot.

is precisely in this unique performance, appropriate expression techniques, and all-purpose "cute feeling" support, "Lonely Rock" will be so successful in shaping the role of "Goto Ichiri". And the "social fear attribute" carried by "Goto Ichiri" is also under the blessing of these techniques, and has such a real, lovely and convincing charm.

is a beautiful girl animation produced by Fangwensha . If you haven't seen the original work, then you are likely to think that it is no different from the "beautiful girls will be watched by everyone" series produced by Fangwensha. It's just that the previously unpopular activities such as "fishing" have been replaced by "grouping a band". The overall content trend will still follow that set of fixed paradigms.

But it is estimated that in either paradigm, there will be no performance in a cardboard box and screw it up

But in fact, whether in the original manga or in the animation, the shaping of the character "Goto Ichiri" , and the story of "Beautiful Girl Stickers" that she brought, there is a big gap with Fang Wenshe's animation in recent years.

Social fear is a common problem of contemporary young people. They can't find friends and are unwilling to socialize. The fear of "others is the abyss" pervades many Internet residents. When watching the game reviews of Party Games, you can see from time to time in the comment area at the bottom, there are remarks such as "the biggest disadvantage of this game: need friends".

Ichiri Goto is one character who brings this social fear to life without being offensive to the audience.

She has the most realistic psychological description of social terrorism - she fears others, but yearns to be recognized. She didn't immerse herself in her own world wholeheartedly. From her original intention of learning the guitar - wanting to become sparkling - it can be seen that she can be said to be fantasizing about being able to use her own efforts to gain appreciation and encouragement from others.

This ambivalence of thirst for attention and fear of others is the core idea of ​​every social terrorist. If there is no desire to reach out from the outside world, there is no social phobia - because you don't think you need to be social. In the second episode of "Lonely Rock", Xiao Lonely's conversation with the bandmates has a fairly accurate response to this.

crushes this contradictory mentality and integrates it into every plot and scene of the story. This work is in this way, through the role of Goto Ichiri, to depict the real daily life of social terrorists vividly.

In the aftermath of many viewers, "I have also done"Similar things" is a fairly common kind of comment. The valuable thing about

is that, on the premise of a certain depth of character portrayal, this work does not go deep into this somewhat depressing topic. The point of the audience is not to continue, through accurate complaints and uninterrupted comedy performance, so that the overall work will not bring too heavy pressure to people. This ingenious and just right performance method is undoubtedly admirable.

saw Little Lonely entering the door in fear and turned around at the door. The teammate's comment "I want to see how long she can go" is quite accurate

and the performance of the character Goto Ichiri in each episode can also make people feel sad Find the power to heal. On the surface, she is always stuck with social fear and stagnates, but in fact she is always in the accident or the push of friends, a little bit to relieve or divert the social fear to her Every episode, Ichiri Goto gets a little bit of improvement, and feels distressed when he realizes that there is only "a little" progress.

The little lonely who bravely stood in front of the stage

This design is not only for the audience to see In addition to Xiao Lonely's embarrassment and cuteness, it is also constantly strengthening the credibility of her "social fear" - the social fear that has plagued her for more than ten years, will not be quickly dismissed just because of interpersonal contacts in just a few days. Healing.

's new show throughout October, even in the vast ocean of fan dramas as a whole, can so easily express the difficult character attribute of "social fear" so vividly and to the point, which not only makes people feel Convincing, but not offensive, it is rare. Previously, although there were similar portrayals in " Gu Jian's classmate has a communication disorder ", several seasons of animation only revolved around the heroine's "social fear". Weaving jokes, to a certain extent, still gives people the feeling of being too forceful.

is very valuable, and the future can be expected. It is not an exaggeration to use these two words to praise the current "Lonely Rock".

Therefore, it is called "Lonely Rock". "Rock" is a true "October Hegemony". Although it is a joke, it also contains a considerable part of the audience's recognition of this work.

does not mean that "The Chainsaw Man" or "The Witch of Mercury" must be Worse than "Lonely Rock". In fact, the level of "Chainsaw Man" and other current topical works is obvious to all, and it is not a work that is just superficial.

But "Lonely Rock" is a lot of "just want to watch an animation" It's very different to the audience of her. Its smooth daily life, vivid portrayal of the heroine image, and the penetrating presentation of the social horror attributes are just praises in words.

, Xiao Lonely and her band will usher in a new lead singer and a new performance. Among the strangers she is about to deal with, what kind of cute performance she will have is really exciting of.

Of course, what is even more exciting is what new emoji package she can make for me.
