My Animation Era

"The Three Sisters of the Southern Family"!

This is the work that Gu Miao recommended to Seto and Wanbao (Neon) branch to practice and test the trend of the market.

No matter from which point of view, this animation is in line with Seto's needs.

The first is short!

A single episode is composed of 4 to 5 related stories into a unit. The first season has a total of twelve or thirteen episodes, which is considered a relatively common season animation.

The second is good-looking.

As an animation of the same period as "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" relies on its excellent quality and warm plot, even after many years, it can still rank among the best in various lists.

Actually tell the truth.

The animation "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" is not heavy on the "house flavor". Compared with other charming houses selling meat, this work is simply a breath of fresh air.

But it is precisely such an animation that has a high status in the heart of the old "two-dimensional", and the evaluation is almost one-sided.

So here comes the problem...

What kind of animation is this, and what kind of magic power does it have?

In a small city, Nan Chunxiang, a 17-year-old daughter of Nan's parents who is in the second grade of high school, has been taking care of her younger sisters in the second grade of middle school and the fifth grade of elementary school instead of her parents.

The two younger sisters are called Shana and Qianqiu. Shanai is a stupid human being with a big nerve, while Qianqiu is a young girl with a poisonous tongue.

The story revolves around the daily life of the three sisters and their campus experiences.

Occasionally, stories about other supporting characters, such as cousins, classmates and another Nan family, are mixed in the plot.

Sounds simple enough?

But a simple plot line does not mean boring and boring. Ordinary daily life can also become colorful.

What impressed Gu Miao most in this animation was the lively and interesting characters.

A virtuous and gentle elder sister.

Obviously very good, but it's a pity that he is the eldest brother-in-law Hosaka who is a pervert + hypochondriac.

The psychotic second sister Xia Nai can always use various methods to refresh the audience's perception and perception of her.

There is also the second brother-in-law Fujioka who can be called a "human high-quality male", who is really annoying.

The poisonous tongue but silly Qianqiu.

Like big sister Chunxiang, awakened special hobbies under the instigation of Shana, read as "true" and wrote "Mako" in women's clothing elementary school Sao Nian.

There is another Nan family...

The third brother Gui of the Nan family, also named after "Chun Xia Qiu", acted like an idiot and doted on his only younger sister, Dong Ma.

Yes, there are winter horses here too!

But this winter horse is not that winter horse. This winter horse is almost the reversal of "Mako" in the animation, and is often mistaken for a boy.

Everyone is fun.

In terms of character design, I have to admit that "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" has done an excellent job. Even one of the humble supporting roles can leave a deep impression on the audience.

No wonder everyone loves it so much.

Oh yes!

Speaking of pleasing characters, in the animation "Three Sisters of the Southern Family", there is also a pair of "lovers" supporting roles that must be mentioned.

Teacher and Ninomiya-san!

As a character that only appears on "TV", "Teacher and Classmate Ninomiya" can be said to be a supporting role that every audience remembers clearly.

Watching the TV on TV, remembering the development of the plot, worrying about the fate of the teacher and Ninomiya, I can only say...

It's really hard!

In addition to excellent character design and almost every supporting role has flesh and blood, the animation "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" also has a hidden advantage.

That is realism!

Some people may complain, looking for a sense of reality and substitution in the two-dimensional virtual world, is there something wrong?

But this is precisely where "The Three Sisters of the South Family" does a good job.

Although it is a two-dimensional virtual world with all kinds of unreal scenery and art design, but if you look closely at the plot, it is actually no different from the daily life of ordinary people.

There are troubles, misunderstandings, happiness, and warmth...

The world of ordinary people is not so magnificent. We won't encounter elves falling from the sky, and there is no Sakamoto classmate who likes to play handsome in the class, and there is no strange club called "Sacrifice Club" in the school.

simple is the best!

Regardless of the various routines, from this point of view, the plot of the animation "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" undoubtedly lacks "hot spots" and cannot mobilize the audience's enthusiasm for the drama.

In this case, it would have been cool to switch to other animations.

But "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" became popular!

And it's not an ordinary fire. When the manga was released and the animation was aired, it was already unbelievably popular. Not to mention that many years later, animation still has an amazing influence.

This is also the reason why Gu Miao chose this work.

He likes the feeling of "plainness is the truth", and he also believes that "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" is more in line with today's market trends and audience tastes.

"Why do you say that?"

Seto didn't understand.

Why do you say that this kind of "plain is the real" work is more in line with the tastes of the current audience? Could it be that everyone has become Buddhist?

"Life is so stressful right now."

"In the past, people didn't think that this kind of ordinary life was so good. But after entering the society and being tortured, they realized how beautiful life in "The Three Sisters of the South Family" was."

Gu Miao explained: "If this work was released ten or twenty years earlier, not many people would like it."

Because at that time, everyone lived the daily life of the three sisters of the Nan family. You are the protagonist, why bother to look at other people's lives?

But it's different now.

With the development of the times, the pressure of modern people's life is increasing.

At the end of the day's 996 work, when looking at the distant sky through the concrete forest, who would not want to live the ordinary life of the three sisters of the Nan family?

It just happens to be a sister animation!

The cute and charming sister characters add a lot to this animation.

While catering to the current market trend, it can also evoke good memories of the audience. This is an excellent animation!

Seto was convinced.

However, he still has a doubt.

Although "Three Sisters of the Southern Family" is very short, the plot is relatively simple. However, it will take at least one month from the establishment of the project now to the "scheduled broadcast" of the first episode of the animation.

What about TBS?

Wanbao didn't care about this month. Anyway, one more month or one less month would not affect their money.

But TBS can't wait so long!

If we wait any longer, I'm afraid that all the advertisers will run out. At that time, are they going to "lose money to broadcast animation"?

"It's not impossible..."

Gu Miao thought about it seriously, and finally said with a chuckle: "Don't they really want a sequel to "Sailor Moon"? You tell them that there is no animation sequel, but I have a live-action version, why don't you let it go?"

Can this also be settled?

The live-action version and the animation sequel are not the same concept at all!

Seto's forehead is full of black lines, thinking that TBS will not take advantage of this, and the president's calculations are probably going to fail.
