Nezha2 speaks from the heart of too many people.
Wen Xiu Ming
Today, I finished watching Ne Zha 2, which is really very exciting, and it’s not without reason that it exploded in popularity.
It’s a movie with a lot of metaphors, I’m only going to release part of it for the public, and I’m going to update the rest of it in Planet tomorrow.
The general story isn’t complicated, it picks up where the first one left off. After Ne Zha and Ao B were killed by a heavenly tribulation, Tai Yi Zhen Zhen used a lotus root to create a body for the two of them, and then due to a misunderstanding in the middle of the movie, Ao B’s new physical body was destroyed again, leaving him with only his soul.
Taibei then advises Nezha to take the Jade Palace system, and once he gets the Immortal Establishment, he will be able to get the magic treasure Jade Liquid Agar, which has the effect of bringing back the dead and can remake Ao B’s physical body.
The title of the exam is to defeat three demon clans to prove his ability and loyalty to the Jade Void Palace.
Nezha fights his way up the ranks, but midway through, he realizes that he has been taken advantage of by the Jade Void Palace’s Immense Immortal Weng, and almost kills a good man by mistake. In the end, Nezha, along with the resurrected Ao Beng, leads the oppressed Dragon and Demon clans to break through their confinement, and defeats the Immortals.
To avoid spoilers, I’ve omitted a lot of key plot points, so just go to the movie theater if you’re interested. I’ll just mention a few metaphors that I thought were interesting.
In the plot, the Jade Palace often hunts the demon race, but there are still a lot of demons who want to change their fate by getting into the Jade Palace system.
Shen Gongbao’s father, Shen Zhengdao, is a teaching and training teacher who trains the demon race to take the exam. He believed that there was only one way out for demons to turn their lives around, and that was to take the exam to enter the Jade Void Palace system, and both his eldest son, Shen Gongbao, and his second son, Shen Xiaobao, were guided by him to take the exam to become Immortals.
Shen Xiaobao also mentioned that since Shen Gongbao had the Jade Void Palace establishment, the demon clans in the surrounding ten miles and eight villages all came to pay their respects to Shen Zhengdao, to make his old father doubly honored.
Shen Zhengdao himself to the Jade Palace is very trustworthy, see the Jade Palace Immortals came to surround themselves, even asked the disciples to take the initiative to put down their weapons and hands, but also said that this is not a good thing to enter the Jade Palace, it is not allowed to return to the right way.
But in fact, Immeasurable Immortal Weng did not even want to realize them, he only wanted to take the captured monsters to alchemy, to enhance the strength of the Jade Void Palace, as to why alchemy to increase the strength of the enemy to defeat the far away sect of the Interceptor.
Although the demons in the plot have not done bad things, most of them are groundhogs or Shen Zhengdao honest people, but does not prevent the Jade Palace to hunt them, here we have to quote the words of the three bodies, the Lord does not care, to destroy you, and you have nothing to do with it ?
The Jade Palace also pays close attention to the bloodline, the Hierarchy scolded the Interceptors that the Interceptors are all people with hair and horns, and all animals are accepted, or the Hierarchy’s bloodline is noble, and most of them are human beings or the second generation of the immortals.
Immeasurable Immortal Weng also said that the reason why the slaughter of the demon race, but also because of the immortal descendants do not compete, the examination is almost unable to pass the demon race, if you don’t care, the composition of the Jade Palace are going to change.
Can be seen that Immeasurable Immortal Weng is also in defense of the privileges of the immortals, is to do a role of singing the white face.
In the Jade Void Palace, Immortals of demonic origin are indeed inferior; Shen Gongbao is so capable but ultimately just a white glove, while Taiyi Zhenzhen is so poorly equipped but has been entrusted with a heavy responsibility. Deer Immortal Crane Immortal is basically just a toolman’s role as well.
Tai Yi Zhen Zhen is also interestingly portrayed, I think, as representing the fringe of the Jade Void Palace system. He knows almost nothing about his master’s true plans, and is as much of a laughingstock in front of his brothers and sisters, and even his juniors, but is able to maintain a bit of goodwill precisely because of his marginalized status.
The eldest brother, Infinite Immortal Weng, is the most valued character of the Master, holding the core secrets of the Jade Void Palace. His behavior in the second part seems to be self-interested and evil, but it is impossible to say that behind the scenes is the Master’s intention.
The divisions within the Demon Race are also interesting, besides the mentioned exam party like Shen Zheng Dao, there is another faction, that is, those who went out to rebel against the Jade Void Palace, but this group is torn apart because of their previous failures.
For example, in the first big battle with the Jade Void Palace, it was the Dragon King of the East Sea who was the first to surrender and betray his three siblings, but as a result of this big battle, the three dragons who once resisted the most resolutely betrayed their elder brother and chose to compromise with the Jade Void Palace.
The Dragon King of the West Sea said that through the first big battle, it recognized the gap between demons and immortals, and the real rules of the world, it only wanted to make a living for itself this time, and if the Jade Palace was willing to lift their chains and return them to freedom, they would be willing to serve.
There is also Limitless Immortal Weng’s Demon Capture Team, the leader of the Deer Immortal Crane Immortal is also a demon, but has no psychological burden on the slaughter of the demon race, they are like a machine, never seem to think about the legitimacy of the behavior, but they still retain some of the nature of some moments, such as the end, in the name of the work of the beating of the Limitless Immortal Weng, which is how many wage earners tools the heart of the people.
There’s also the interaction between Nezha Ou Bing and their respective parents, which is a genuine desire of contemporary youth.
Nezha’s mother says to Nezha that no matter if you’re an immortal or a devil, you’re still my child, and doesn’t care at all if her son enters the Jade Palace system.
Ao Bing’s father steals the spirit beads in the hope that his son will enter the Jade Palace system and become an immortal, freeing himself from the suppression of the dragon race, and then relents when he sees that there is no hope of getting to the shore.
In the end, Bo Guang said directly to Ao Bian that his father was old and his father’s experience might not be applicable today, and that your path should be chosen by yourself. In the end, you will have to choose your own path. He tacitly agrees to his son’s revolt against the Heavenly Court with Nezha.
Although Ao Guang had once failed in his revolt and was disillusioned, and ended the story by fleeing into the deep sea with his dragon family, he did not stop his son from choosing his own reasoning.
How many young people, wish their parents could be like that and not impose their will on others.
At the end of the movie, Nezha and Ao Beng embark on the road of resistance together, and Nezha’s line “My destiny is mine, not God’s. Young people just don’t know the heights of heaven and the depths of the earth…” I don’t know how many people’s heartfelt feelings are embedded in this line.
The whole process, from thinking that getting into the Jade Palace system will get rid of the fate of the demons, to preparing for the exams, to recognizing the Jade Palace system, and finally to rebelling against the Jade Palace system, highlights the growth of Nezha and Ao Bian, as well as the journey of many people’s hearts and minds. In the end, the director hopes that young people will break their inherent perceptions and follow the path they choose according to their own conscience.
In reality most young people can’t do a step, but ultimately they want to.
Although Nezha 2 is just a simple animated film, it speaks to the hearts of many, and everyone can see a part of their heart in it. This animation topped the box office of Chinese movies, and it is worthy of its name.
