Sometimes you choose animals, sometimes animals choose you. With Fuji’s new…dog…it’s both. We don’t know the idea of how Tanaka put himself in a cardboard box and asked for adoption, and we don’t know if Fuji was the first to find him, but what Do It seemed clear that from the moment she stopped to look at him in the rain, there were some choices from each other. Sometimes that’s it.
It may also be one of the biggest advantages With you and the rainwhether it is in the original manga or anime form. This story understands the relationship between a person and a pet, especially the animals she lives with. Based on what we learned about Fuji in episode 3 (and combined with the first two books), Kimi is the one she interacts with the most, not just every day. She has good friends and a loving family, but she seems to prefer to spend time doing her own things, whether it’s the author’s work or being alone. Kimi is a partner who doesn’t need to keep her time and attention in a way and focus. She wasn’t mean when she told her friend Mimi to go to the beach with others wasn’t her business. She just shows that it is easier to do things alone or with a “dog” than another person.
About this and the story in general. Fuji is not a person who changes rapidly. She is just an introvert. With you and the rain Show her look very comfortably. She knew her neighbors and interacted with them, her friends came over and talked a lot with her family. But she didn’t hang out with her friends, and she seemed to be closest to her neighbor was a little girl, which might be a social interaction that demanded less demanding. Kimi perfectly bridges the gap between pets and companions in a way that is perfect for Fuji. He can write so they can have real conversations (although I will yell on this mountain, even if they can’t write for the foreseeable future, I will have real conversations with my dog and cat), but he is quiet and is his own field. He likes to go or be with his people. Very happy to watch.
The show succeeds by letting this gentle tone carry a story. Even Kimi is Clearly There is no way a dog is handled – Fuji’s father thinks he is Yokai (thinking the way the leaves on Kimi’s head) The vet knows it’s not a dog, and Mimi is shunned, while Mimi is shunned for speaking out the quiet part out loud – but Fuji is just a bit of a brush. She is not stupid, so she may know that her puppy is a creature with some folk luggage, but that doesn’t matter to her. She is an adult; if she wants to have a pet Tennaki in a mythical sense, she will have one. Everything else is noise.
This creates a strange situation where the audience may want more answers than we can possibly have. Is Kimi really really bad at traditional Tiangu magic? Is this his changed self? He was walking into the house of someone in the ancient Middle East and said, “I live here now, human. I certainly get three cats like this. In almost any other series, I would worry that Kimi is not good. After three episodes of gentle, cute and wholesome pet/person interactions, I think he might just want to be cared for, be loved and give the same reward.
Relationships with animals that share our space can be a lot of things. With you and the rain Shows a range from cute to sweet to companion in the first three episodes. Kimi digs on the beach, gets stuck in the trash can and hides on the guests who make him uncomfortable. Tanuki or Dog, he is a recognizable companion animal. What’s worse to spend a summer than indulging in this calming sweetness is that if the show continues, we can expect a half hour of peace and a half hour of tranquility every Saturday to eliminate the horrors of the real world.
