From a basic point of view, this is a movie about family. exist Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon MaidLong has no family unit. They don’t love their young people and tend to see them as their battlefield companions or ultimate competitors. But because of her time in the human world, Kanna learned the concept of parental love, which is understood through interactions with Kobayashi. She longs for this connection with her biological father, even if he seems to be both incompetent and uninterested in forming a person.
The film explores the concept that neglect is abuse through the relationship between Kanna and her father. Children cannot stop longing for their parents’ love. They can be used and rejected again and again, but even with the slightest hope, everything they emotionally lasts will forgive all of this. Many children repeat this cycle in vain. They simply cannot understand the fact that their parents will never change – their parents must first change, and even then, it may still be impossible.
It’s heartbreaking to watch, especially in Kanna’s case. She really wants her father/daughter to love her desire because she is willing to give up her happy life with Kobayashi, which may be possible. And deep down, even though she knew she was doing something stupid, she couldn’t help but ask herself.
Meanwhile, Kobayashi, on the other hand, finds herself seeing the true situation of it, and although she will be able to speed up her heart, the fact remains that she is not Kanna’s father and has no right to control her own life. If Kanna chooses to go to her father, there is nothing Kobayashi can do. So Kobayashi did not intervene directly, but instead worked to promote the kind of relationship Kanna wanted between the two.
After all, if Tooru, Fafnir, Ilulu, Elma and Lucoa could understand all aspects of human love, who would say that Kanna’s father could not? To his credit, his feelings about Kanna were never accidental. He didn’t understand what she wanted, didn’t really care about him, and he said too much. But if doing something simple, such as a transaction letter, would make the daughter collaborate in the looming Dragon War, he would be willing to humor her.
Of course, the film’s true villain has no doubts about using Kanna’s emotional shares. Azad learned that as powerful as dragons are physically, they are mentally innocent, which makes them easy to manipulate. He is a man in need of revenge: a dragon once killed the dragon he loved, so now he will take revenge by killing as many of them as possible. However, his main drawback is that his genocide mindset requires him to regard dragon gold as a boulder with an unchanging nature. Therefore, killing any dragon is revenge, because if the situation arises, any dragon will take away the person he loves.
But the dragons on Earth prove that this is a lie. They formed a real family. Even if their political views differ, they stand on each other even if they have political views. They learned love from Kobayashi and their respective human companions. They have overcome the basic nature and culture and have done better for it.
In their case, it is obvious that deceiving Dragon to fight a brutal civil war is not to prevent a personal tragedy like Azad has experienced. Teaching dragons not only to love other dragons, but also to love everyone is the only real way forward. In the climax of the movie, Tooru proves this by acting as someone who cares more than her love than her dragon can basically care about.
Visually, A lonely dragon wants to be loved It’s a beautiful movie. It retains the palette and overall art style of TV anime while taking action scenes (several of them) to the next level. There are a lot of details in each scene, and overall it is like a story tailored to the big screen.
As for audio, this movie contains a new one slope– Sung Open, this really tied everything to the theme of the series. While the sound actor can bring the high quality you would expect from a TV series, it is kimun (Fumihiko Tachiki) Who is the most perfect character in this movie. I mean, better than the man who plays Gendou Ikari, he can play an emotionally distant, abusive, neglected father Evangelical.
all in all, Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid: A lonely dragon wants to be loved It’s a great little movie. Built on an environment full of stupid dragons and light-hearted comedy, we delve into the issues that children neglect and around them. At the same time, we also received a story about a group of people trying to change their nature, which is more than the love and acceptance found around them. This is a good thing from top to bottom, whether you watch TV anime or not, movies are emotional resonance.
