I like Cartoon and Animation, especially some classic Japanese cartoon like TMNT and Dragonball Evolution. But I hate Japan cosplay, I think it is a kind of culture invading, more and more Chinese young people just copy and follow it with blindness. And most of author just copy the public trend, no more original creation. Compare to American or European cartoon industry, Japan is the leading in Asia even in the world. Some of Chinese cartoons are masterpieces too, but I am not talking about the technics, just about the politics. Chinese cartoon revolution goes through a difficult time while this industry is popular abroad. Since the opening policy, we are still a baby.

Ok, I stop my babbling, I just want to introduce an independant cartoon, Lixianji Adventure (??????) by a guy nicknamed A Young and Excellent Pilot (????????). This animation spends 2+ years, but we can see how was the local, special, original Chinese independant cartoon maker!

This Animation talks about a guy named Lixianji, he experiences a time adventure and then find his way out. During his adventure, he plays game with the Japanese Boxing Game player Daigo UMEHARA, then meet CIA, Bin Laden, and his skill shows in the Matrix bullet shower and alternate many game music. It is a perfect combination of technics, music, and plot. Even some of the audiences said the screen is rough, however, you will find out why it shows rough and what he wants to express. HAVE a LOOK!

Comments:

this animation is deep. It tells about the guy Lixianji has to play through the game in order to meet a girl who lived in the past time. Coz the girl in the future doesn't like him any more. In order to find her back, he has to get through the game, then open a door to find her. But  every time he got throuhg and open the door, he just get back to the moment he breaks the game, or he is the baby, or other experience time in his life. At last, he gets through the game again and open a door, he find her. But he just stare at her afar, no walk ahead to her. Coz time past on him, he is old, the girl is still in the past, nothing changed. Lixianji said he seems experience a whole life when he find her. I love this animation, of course, the maker's skill is excellent, he makes the complicated more simple.
