Thoughts About the Silver Spoon

                  When I first read the silver spoon, I thought it is going to be a boring manga. The set up of the manga is just not interesting to a person like me who is so into action and adventure. However, after being introduce to this story, I am kind of like it how the story is. I like this story because how different this story is comparing to other manga series.It's about a boy who enrolled the agriculture school. I feel this story is connect and related to me because I tend to go easy on something that seems easy. However sometime this easy looking thing can really kick you in the back. This "easy looking" thing will actually make you learn more. In addition- look something in a different way. The protagonist tends to go the a "easier" school to prepare his exam, but he ends up in a even harder school he wanted to. Yes, that is how it looks on the surface. But in another view point, he gained friendship he was lacked of and a lot of the things that he had not have before. I feel like this manga can be a Japanese light fiction and a short illustration series. Because of the set up of the story, I feel like I want to see the normal day of the protagonist in a illustration form. The color of illustration will really help the story as well.

After thoughts about Shonen in general

                I grow up with shonen anime. They all somehow influence my life in all sort of different ways. I want to talk about Bleach particularly because it is such a big part of my childhood. Bleach is a shonen anime done by Tite Kubo. It has been one of the most influential anime for a long time. People usually referring Bleach Naruto and One piece the godfathers of the anime. I like Bleach because the intense story narrative it has and the action as well. I was very into the action when I was young. Now that I am an animator, I realize doing action is very hard especially cutting and screen direction that kind of stuff. But Kubo was able to do it so smoothly and not disorienting, which I think that is why he was so successful. I love the costume too that Kubo was able to combine modern fashion with Japanese old samurai suits, making them look cool but stylish.

After thoughts about Miyazaki and Ghibli

                  The well-known Hayao Miyazaki is one of the most influential manga artist/ anime directors. His works are considered the most classical anime of all time. Miyazaki is often referred to as the godfather of anime. His studio Ghibli has produced so many beautiful feature anime films. But I want to argue that Miyazaki's films are Anime. I think Miyazaki's films should be feature animation film instead of anime film because their level of detail and storytelling is way higher than the films that are in the anime film category. A lot of his films have high-level detail and I believe they should be a feature film. Usually, when I think about an anime film, I think about the movie of the anime like the 4 long movies of Bleach. They all have more information and detail than the original episodes but comparing to Miyazaki's films they all seem somehow lack of information and detail.
