Any story is attractive as long as it is unconventional. The biggest theme of the horror pet shop seems to be pity for the whole earth, but she also puts the object of description on one ordinary person after another. Every story has no depressing and heavy feelings, and some are very relaxed and humorous. But at the end of the story, she cleverly let us know, perhaps inadvertently, what we destroyed. Although many times no one can criticize us, after all, we should be cautious in life.
Count d, dressed in fine clothes, is more exquisite than a woman. He runs a pet shop in Zhonghua Street in a certain city, bringing you fantastic animals and mysterious experiences, steaming human desires and original sins with a smoky aroma.
In the novel world, animals are often used to symbolize negative characters such as madness and lewdness. The legend of werewolves and vampire bats in the west, Zeus in Greek mythology, often incarnates as lovers of various animals. In the East, ghosts and myths incarnated by animals such as foxes, gluttons, snakes and demons are also branded with human despicable character. The Japanese supernatural-evil system was introduced from Chinese mainland, and Japanese supernatural-evil works are the synthesis of Buddhist scriptures, supernatural-evil novels of China literati and legends of the Tang Dynasty. During the Edo period, Shu Ren's writing style flourished. Ueda Akinari's Tales on a Rainy Night is a masterpiece of Japanese folklore and China's fairy tales, which is all the rage and makes the creation of Japanese monsters increasingly prosperous, and it is still the main creation type in popular literature.
Judging from the evolution of Japanese literature, supernatural stories and ghost legends have always occupied a very heavy proportion. These ghost stories appeared in the form of "talking" in Buddhism in the early days, and were used to educate believers in order to achieve the purpose of preaching and spreading the law. Even in The Tale of Genji, the pinnacle of heian period's story literature, there are supernatural fragments. With the evolution of the times, the story of ghosts and gods gradually separated from the category of Buddhism, combined with social events at that time, and became a special thing of karma in war stories and popular books, which not only strengthened the social moral values at that time, but also became one of the topics of public gossip. Urban culture and customs are combined with monster stories, or love or revenge, or record ordinary people's emotions, greed and delusion. To say that this Greek mythological world is the divine realm of human nature, the monster forest in the East may be the magic realm of human nature!
The horror of western horror stories lies in the cold, unexpected, cruel and bloody killing, which is unpredictable and powerless for human beings to resist. Even the image of God in the Bible is moody, and even believers have absolute power to kill their children and sacrifice. Roland barthes once thought that the western catering forms, mainly knives and forks, implied cruel and bloody cultural characteristics, while the eastern catering used spoons and chopsticks, which was gentle. However, it's a pity that Bart's contact and insight into the East is not deep enough, otherwise he will understand that the orientals don't want to use the superficial kung fu of servant culture at the dinner table, and there is no civilization in East Renye Fang.
Every short story in the pet shop of horror is titled with the word d in English, which runs through the central theme of the story. It is really the love (desire) and death that Japanese people love very much. As a cartoon for girls, the theme is inseparable from the category of love. The word love, in Japanese, refers not only to the feelings between men and women, but also to people and things. Wrong love is as terrible as poison. In the third story "Daughter" in the first episode, the doting mother ignored Count Gu's warning and fed candy poison to the pet rabbit that looked like her dead daughter, which caused an uncontrollable situation. Parents' "doting" on their children is a sweet poison that poisons the children themselves. The fourth "dance" in the fifth episode is a dance star who loves his other half passionately, burns his eyes with jealousy, dances the knife of death, and cuts himself and love.
This is horror comics. It's not scary at all. All stories are fables that make people cry.
What is terrible is not pets, but people's greed and ignorance. What makes people cry is that people are ruthless, affectionate, affectionate, promiscuous and unpredictable, just like a jungle full of emotional crisis traps. Count d, the owner of the ark in the horror pet shop, watched the gradual extinction of animals under the greed and desire of human beings. Such cartoons are better and more real than horror. The proposition that the author tries to explore is not the species entanglement between animals and humans, but to test human emotions and civilized phenomena with the animal world and the law of survival.
Comics create a heterogeneous space, including myth, imagination and the past. People and things are constantly born and reincarnated in the torrent of time, and we follow Count D's eyes through ancient and modern times. This mysterious man in the east, gentle and cruel in the west, wanders around the world with the animals on Noah's ark in the west, and shuttles through the reincarnation of the east with the impermanence of the western gods. Give people dreams and love.
Are you ready to buy this strange pet? Attention, if you don't feed properly, the lovely pet will eat you in turn! Be careful, pets are like this, and so is love.
