Little Witch DoReMi’s work evaluation

A Girl's Eternal Dream

It's been a long time since an animation or comic has been so fascinating, and what's incredible is that this is actually a "girls animation".

The story of "Little Witch DoReMi" may be designed to satisfy the little girls' desire to wear beautiful clothes, recite spells, and perform magic. But in fact, the plot is very life-like, with bright and prominent characters and cute and soft backgrounds, making it easy for little girls to accept. Not only in Japan; Taiwan, Hong Kong and even some European countries are blowing the little witch trend. Walking on the road, you can see elementary school students carrying DoReMi schoolbags and Hazuki handbags, as well as using bags with musical notes and little love patterns printed on them. stationery.

In addition to the TV version and numerous peripheral products, due to its extreme popularity, special theatrical versions were launched in 2000 and 2001 respectively. In addition, it has also been adapted into a comic version; and "The Doll Game" , "Searching for the Full Moon"... and other animations are different, "Little Witch DoReMi" decided to have animation first, and then had plans to edit comics separately. In Taiwan, the comic version was published by Changhong Publishing House and serialized in the magazine "Beautiful Girl". Although the painting style of the comic version is not as exquisite as the animated version, the vivid plot is still well received.

Rich music

In addition to the first impression that caught my eye, the production team of "DoReMi" impressed me with its overall plot and "sound" (including the characters). The dubbing and background music parts) did not cut any corners!

Abandoning well-known voice actors, "DoReMi" uses a new generation of voice actors, and the care in music production can also be seen from the opening song, ending song and interlude of each film. More than ten music CDs were released. Among the songs that can be particularly recommended in "Little Witch DoReMi", the author thinks that there are "ルピナスの子素呗", "We Can Do" and "Cookie Candy Song".

"ルピナスの子修呗" is sung by the little witches when they coax the little flowers to sleep. Whenever the little witches sing this song, the noisy little flowers will become obedient. This song symbolizes maternal love, It is also played when other stories about the little witch and her mother are told. Every time I hear it, I can't help but secretly shed tears.

"We Can Do" is a song from the third mid-note album. The brisk style can easily touch people's hearts. As long as friends get together, We can do anything!

The first appearance of "Biscuit Candy Song" was sung by Xiao Taozi when she was playing with Xiao Hua. This song was brought back by Xiao Taozi from the United States. It uses twenty-five English letters to write twenty The names of the five desserts (the last letter Z is not the name of the dessert, but Zenbu in Japanese, which means all) are not only nice and fun, but also have the function of "edutainment and education"!

Because of love, it can touch people

In "DoReMi", there are all kinds of human emotions. The ones that primary school students are easiest to understand are the family affection and the friendship from peers. , as well as the friendship between teachers and students and the yearning but unfamiliar love.

In addition to friendship, "Little Witch DoReMi" spends quite a few chapters on family affection. Every little witch has different problems in her family. As the saying goes, every family has its own problems that are difficult to recite. DoReMi is the only little witch who appears with siblings. Although she and Bubble often quarrel, when Bubble does something wrong or encounters difficulties, DoReMi, the sister, still tries her best to help her; while Bubble is always full of mischief. He looks like a brat, but sometimes he is still very considerate of his sister's feelings.

Hazuki is a eldest lady from a wealthy family (the surname Fujiwara was originally a surname of an ancient Japanese noble). Although she was born into a prestigious family, Hazuki does not have the temperament of a eldest lady; she is smart and considerate, but maybe She has been a girl since she was a child. Although her personality is steady and elegant, she can sometimes be slow. What I like most about her is the way she laughs when hearing bad jokes (the author and Hazuki are both people with extremely low boiling points... ) However, Yuyue often doesn't know how to express her thoughts clearly, so she has some friction with her mother. The first thing Yuyue wanted to solve with magic was to be able to clearly say "no" to her mother to things she didn't like.

Xiao Ai comes from a single-parent family. Her parents divorced when she was very young. Xiao Ai followed her father, who drove a taxi, to Meikong Town. She took on all the household chores by herself. There is a side of her that does not give in to the harsh environment, but she also has a cheerful side in front of others; due to family relationships, Xiao Ai's wish has always been to restore the relationship between her father and mother. The stories are usually interspersed with stories about Xiao Ai's family, but in the first three films, Xiao Ai's parents always separated several times due to some sudden misunderstandings, which made Xiao Ai not sad.

Yin Yin is a quite independent girl. Perhaps because of her role as a child star, she feels arrogant, but in fact, Yin Yin is also a kind and gentle person. Yin Yin's father is an express train driver and rarely sees Yin Yin, so Yin Yin can give up the job he always values ??in order to see his father. Usually, Yin Yin interacts more with her mother. Yin Yin's mother is also her manager. When she was young, she was an idol. Later, due to the shadow of an accident, she was forced to quit the entertainment industry, so she will all hope Putting it on Yin Yin, I hope Yin Yin can become a popular idol.

Because Xiao Taozi grew up in a Western country, she developed a straight personality. At first, this personality made other little witches feel cold, but after Xiao Ai reminded her, she finally understood How to get along with Orientals. When she was in New York, because Taozi's parents were busy with work, the person who usually took the best care of her was the Witch Monroe. The Witch Monroe not only gave Taozi friendship, but also gave Taozi the affection like a grandma to her granddaughter. But when Taozi is worried, her parents also provide loving support.

"Little Witch DoReMi" does not shy away from talking about single-parent families, the death of dear family members... and other sad topics, and it can be narrated in language that children can understand.

DoReMi’s instructor is named after the producer Miss Guan Hongmei. She dresses very strictly in class on weekdays and is very strict during class. But after class, her transportation is a super heavy motorcycle! In addition, he speaks good English and knows the art of swordsmanship, so he is really versatile. Teacher Guan cares very much about her students and will not scold them with harsh words, but she can clearly teach children the concepts of right and wrong. Even in real life, Teacher Guan must be a teacher respected and loved by students!

Yuyue is smart and considerate. Although she is a little timid, she can always handle many things calmly. The elegant way the notes play on the flute will make people's hearts flutter even if they are both girls! Xiao Ai always works hard, and "Ashali" has a very likeable personality. Taozi's seriousness about pastries is really admirable. So, what about DoReMi? This protagonist who has no skills at all and is always getting into trouble seems not so easy to like, right?

No! In fact, DoReMi's personality is very close to that of ordinary people. There will be times when she is "protruding" and confused about the situation, but she can always face it with a cheerful smile, and will take the initiative to care for those in need. When working at the Magic Hall, she seems to have Things will always get messed up with DoReMi, but without her, life seems to be missing some lubricant and flavor. It is really not easy to make the surroundings smell good, but DoReMi is such a girl who makes people feel as comfortable as the spring breeze caressing her face.

The ultimate reason why "Little Witch DoReMi" is popular is because it starts from love and connects different interpersonal relationships. People are attracted because they have love.

There are many imperfections in life, and we often hope that we can use magic to make them perfect. However, in the world of "Little Witch DoReMi", it is often not magic that makes things happen, but a simple innocent heart.

In terms of animation style, Little Witch Doremi is not like other beautiful girl transformation animations that adopt a shojo manga style that pleases the audience, and there is no sign of collapse. Perhaps, many people will say that "the characters are too simple", but it is precisely at this point that their cuteness is reflected. Their freshness and vividness seem to overflow the screen. This is even for beautiful girl animations. , is also extremely rare. Although some animations put a lot of effort into their promotional images, the animation quality is not necessarily good, but Doremi is different. It has vivid and round characters, often twisted and funny expressions, fresh but bright. The colors are not artificial, do not pursue complexity, and are full of vividness, making every animation screenshot satisfying. Even so, the production quality of Little Witch Doremi can satisfy many people.

In Superman Dika, there is a passage about Decca: "Ultraman is both light and human." This sentence also confirms that in the world of Doremi, the protagonist of Doremi is a human being. , they are not super ancient aliens or gods, nor are they genetically synthesized organisms or highly civilized races in the ocean, so they can do things that these people cannot do - help others. And lead mankind to the path of light through compassion and selflessness. If you are tired of the clichés of magical girl groups in the past, Little Witch Doremi will definitely be refreshing for you.
