Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 180 84. I really cried to death

Woo woo woo...

So touching.

Furukawa Hirose said, I really cried to death.

…

As the plot continues to develop, Quiet and Hedgehog rent a small house again and start a new life.

Everything has changed, but nothing seems to have changed.

But as long as the other person is there, I feel at ease.

After living like this for a few days, just when Furukawa Hirosawa was wondering "Have you finished the game yet?", the plot changed again.

Just when he was returning home from get off work at the convenience store, he saw a group of people gathered at the intersection, pointing with their fingers, not knowing what they were talking about.

As I got closer, I heard:

"Fire!"

"There's a fire!"

Uesugi Jun raised his head and took a look. Black smoke was rising from a residential building in the distance.

The strongest one comes from the 6th layer above.

That was where he and Hinata Minami lived.

At this moment, his heart seemed to be grasped by a pair of invisible hands.

Uesugi Jun didn't care so much and started running quickly.

"hedgehog!"

Risking the danger, Uesugi Jun climbed the stairs all the way to his home.

Sure enough, the hedgehog was still at home.

He quickly took the hedgehog with him to escape.

But we just got down to the next level.

The corridor was filled with black smoke, making it so choking that people couldn't breathe at all.

Moreover, the surrounding temperature was also rising sharply, and fire snakes spread up from the lower floors and licked the windows.

boom……

The floor above collapsed.

The fire burned brightly.

Block the intersection on the lower level.

Either go up, or you can only choose to find a place to jump out of the window.

"It's over, it's over, we're going to die here." Hinata Nan said.

"Will not."

Jun Uesugi said firmly.

"By the way, I still have a blanket."

At this moment, he suddenly remembered some knowledge about first aid escape.

The two people first rushed into a bathroom, and Jun Uesugi poured water over the quilt.

"There is oxygen in the water. If you cover your mouth and nose, you can prevent inhalation of toxic gases."

At the same time, after the quilt gets wet, it can play a protective role to some extent.

It might be small, but there's only so much he can do.

…

In the middle of the fire, Uesugi Jun wrapped the hedgehog's body in a quilt and moved to an outer room on this floor.

The fire snake jumped out immediately.

Due to the high temperature, the water on Uesugi Jun's quilt immediately evaporated into steam, causing him to wail in pain.

"Bed...how are you?"

Seeing him sweating profusely and grinning, Hinata Nan felt heartbroken.

"It's okay. It'll be okay."

Jun Uesugi gritted his teeth and continued to persist.

Charge forward with the hedgehog.

The flames licked his quilt and immediately opened a big hole.

Uesugi almost fainted from the pain.

Seeing this, Furukawa Haoze's heart tightened.

When I think of the setting of the quilt man, his quilt is like the skin that grows on the body. It bleeds and hurts, and he can feel everything around him...

Then when it is eroded by the flames, it will definitely be extremely painful.

No way?

You've already carried it from the front, so you won't be cutting it here, right?

But he has seen the light and the end.

The sky can already be seen outside the windows on the 4th floor.

Wow...

Uesugi broke through the window with Hinata in his arms and jumped down from the building.

A white light.

…

The man in bed finally realized his value for once.

In this white light, the male protagonist thought to himself:

Fortunately I am a quilt man.

Not a superhero.

However, he is someone's own hero.

that's enough.

Facing the sun, Uesugi Jun smiled, and the whole world turned white.

Perhaps, this is the happiest time for me to be a man in bed.

When he woke up again, Uesugi was already in the hospital.

There was a pain all over his body, and he grimaced in pain.

"By the way, Hedgehog, how is she?"

Toshi Uesugi pushed himself up and prepared to find Hinata Minami.

But as soon as he sat up, he saw a girl appearing at the door.

Hinata Nan was walking toward him with a cane and a bound.

"Great, it's great that you're okay." Uesugi Jun laughed happily.

The hedgehog gave him a roll of his eyes and said, "He also said that he jumped from the fourth floor. Fortunately, he had a quilt to cushion him. He only broke his leg and it was pretty good."

Um.

Jun Uesugi nodded, it was great that the hedgehog was fine.

"By the way Hedgehog..." He suddenly remembered something, raised his head and said eagerly, "Hedgehog, what I want to tell you is -

Although I don't have a turtle shell, I do have a bed.

The quilt is soft, reliable, and can completely accommodate you and accept you..."

Uesugi Jun said the confession that the hedgehog didn't have time to hear that day, but just when he was about to say the three words "I like you", he was abruptly stopped by Hinata Minami.

"Bedding!"

"Um?"

Her pupils widened, she raised a hand and pointed at Uesugi Jun in disbelief, "Your bed!"

"Eh?"

…

At this point, the game comes to an abrupt end.

The entire screen went black.

The BGM started ringing.

Immediately on the left are some memory clips, and on the right the subtitles of the staff begin to play:

[Producer: Mika Ishino]

[Script Design: Ma Zhizhun]

[Music: Atsushi Shirakawa \u0026 Jun Aseda]

Al? !

Furukawa Haoze did not react for a moment.

Gone? !

This last section was all presented from the male protagonist's first perspective, so even Furukawa Hirosawa didn't see what Jun Uesugi turned into in the end.

But the phrase "your quilt" by the hedgehog girl at the end is really concerning.

hateful!

What kind of ending is this?

Why don't you explain it clearly?

Ahhhh!

So sad!

Furukawa Hirosawa, a Virgo, expressed that he felt so uncomfortable and could not accept the open ending.

Although this open plan is not that open, and there is not much room for making associations in the end, Furukawa Haoze hopes to see with his own eyes that the two of them can return to normal people and live a happy life.

That would be the perfect ending like a fairy tale.

What does this mean now?

…

Um……

He must have turned back into a normal person, right?

After thinking for a long time, even if he was rolling on the ground and tossing and turning unable to sleep, Furukawa Hirose finally reconciled with himself and pokeni, comforting himself with this imagined ending.

The total game time is not long. As a galgame, 4 hours of experience is already quite good.

Of course, the main plot is about this long. If you want to collect all the branch plots and game props, you will probably need to play for two to three weeks.

At least so far, Furukawa Hirosawa is quite satisfied with the new work "Belt Man".

The knife was half cut.

Not the whole knife.

And whether it's an angel or a little fire, although it's not explained in the main plot, it probably won't end well.

It can be said to be quite kind to leave enough room for imagination for players.

Ishino Mika is so gentle.

…

In addition to Ishino Mika, Furukawa Hirosawa also remembered another name——

The script was planned by Ma Zeda.

Are you a new author?

But isn’t this new author too strong?

From the game, Hirosawa Furukawa can clearly feel that the style of "Belt Man" is really unique.

Although it tells the story of a group of mutants who lost their human identity.

But there aren’t too many cliche battles or saving the world plots throughout the whole process, and there’s no excessive exaggeration of sadness and despair. On the contrary, most of the game itself is about the warmth and happiness when they get along.

Such an extremely ordinary daily plot, but because of P Company's special expression techniques and Ma Zhi's precise and delicate brushstrokes, it slowly makes people feel full of happiness all the time.

Fresh, natural, graceful and charming, just like Shirakawa's music.

It can be said that "Belt Man" has reached a natural state of integration in terms of game style, script, and music.

The several bursts of tears in the middle are also very personal and distinctive. There have been foreshadowings in the past, but they are not so deliberate, but they can always hit your weak spot in an instant and make people burst into tears.

The style is really very different from Lao Xu.

Lao Xu is one of those people who sets up a dark suspense for you, letting you peel off the cocoon on your own, and every time you discover a layer of clues in the process, your heart will be shaken even more, and every time you peel off a layer of clues, you will find the following This layer is darker.

Until I give you a hard blow at the end.

It's so dark that it can be called cruel.

This is Lao Xu's style.

And the Ma Zhi criterion is——

Make you laugh.

Make you cry.

Make you laugh, make you cry with laughter, make you cry with laughter...

To be honest, if the final outcome is that both the male and female protagonists are killed, Furukawa Hirosawa really can't tell who is more cruel, Asashi Jun or Urobuchi Gen.

Is it going to be dark from the beginning to the point where it's even more heart-wrenching to be stabbed at the end?

Or is it more maddening to repeatedly jump sideways and release tear gas when you are at your happiest?

Fortunately, the ending is good.

Given a HE, the producer Mika Ishino and the script writer Jun Asae are really good to the players.

Thank you for being a HAPPY END, otherwise, Furukawa Hirose thought, he would probably be on his way to send the blade by now, right?

Uh-huh.

In this case, let me give Ishino Mika a small compliment.

…

"Ah~ great."

At the end of Studio Ghibli, when the subtitles from the staff came out, Miyazaki finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When Suzuki Toshio wasn't paying attention, Miyazaki Hamster secretly wiped the corners of his eyes.

"Scared me……"

Miyazaki Hamster wiped his lenses with a glasses cloth and said with a little cry, "Fortunately, the last two people are alive."

"Yeah. Fortunately that's the case."

Suzuki Toshio nodded.

Two people sat here playing the game for hours, both having the same experience.

But……

Why did Miyazaki Hamster let me operate it again?

Is it a good game like galgame that doesn’t require any operation or reaction at all?

Precisely because there was Miyazaki Hamster next to him, Toshio Suzuki said that even when he got to the touching parts of the game, he did not dare to cry.

"It has an open ending." Hayao Miyazaki put his glasses back on his face and recalled the game plot carefully, "Pokeni is very good at creating suspense in games."

"There's a feeling of unfinished business."

"Well~ even though it's an open ending, you can probably guess a lot from the reaction of the hedgehog girl, right?" Toshio Suzuki said, "The man in bed should have turned back into a normal person.

Maybe because of this fire, his quilt was completely burned, and he will no longer be a quilt man from now on. Otherwise, if you think about it, why would the hedgehog girl have such a big reaction? "

"Hmm... not necessarily." Hayao Miyazaki smiled slyly, "What is not confirmed by the camera is the unknown ending. It can also be interpreted as the man's bed was burned to tatters, but it is still a bed, right?"

"Well... it's possible, but the probability is low." Suzuki Toshio still insisted on his opinion.

"Anyway, it's a good game." Hayao Miyazaki sucked Yakult and sat on a chair thinking.

"A group of mutants who have lost their qualifications to be human come together. Although they have special abilities, these abilities have little effect except causing psychological trauma to them.

This setting is really interesting. "

In Hayao Miyazaki's works, most of the animated protagonists are ordinary people, but there are also people like Porco Rosso who look strange but have average physical abilities.

As for the upcoming "Princess Mononoke", both the male and female protagonists have strong abilities.

It seems that it has never been possible to create a work that is so close to ordinary real life.

Because imagination was a very important part of Hayao Miyazaki's previous creative concepts.

These imaginations are not only reflected in the characters, but also in the entire world view, and even the entire era environment must be full of imagination.

But now, something new has been integrated into Miyazaki's concept——

Even ordinary little people can live wonderful lives.

No, maybe it is precisely such a sad and useless little person who can still have an optimistic and positive spirit in a real environment and live a warm and natural life. This is what truly has power and touches people's hearts.

If "Belt Man" had been made into a passionate fighting game from the beginning, it probably wouldn't have touched people so deeply.

Whether it is a warm little daily life, or redemption and sacrifice for each other for love, in order to implement one's own ideas and rebel against secular concepts and family members...

These can shake Miyazaki.

"The game's art style is also quite impressive," said Hayao Miyazaki. "Using such a dreamy fairy tale style to interpret some difficult and profound propositions weakens some of the more unacceptable scenes in the game, and instead makes people enjoy it." More emotions and expectations.

pokeni has done an amazing job. "

Um.

Suzuki Toshio nodded in agreement.

At first glance, the plot of this game seems quite simple. Simplicity lies in the appearance of the plot. But if you study it carefully, you will find that P Club uses such a fairy tale-like narrative method to reveal many social issues:

Such as loneliness.

In modern society, people are alienated.

And rebellion.

The hedgehog's rebellion against his mother also symbolizes his opposition to secular ideas.

Suzuki Toshio did not delve into it, but just had a rough idea. Maybe if he digs deeper into the game, he will gain much deeper insights than he can think of now.

…

Hayao Miyazaki smiled and seemed to be very satisfied with P Club, especially Qing Zhiyuan.

"But is there a possibility?"

"Huh?" Suzuki Toshio looked at him doubtfully.

"Would it be better for the work itself if the quilt man and the hedgehog girl died?"

Nani?

Suzuki Toshio gave him a look.

Miyazaki Hamster, please be a human being.

But you must not let him have such an idea, otherwise the endings of future Ghibli cartoons will be tear-jerking, which will cause serious problems.
