Meet You in Dreams

The interweaving of dreams and reality presents a unique charm. At the beginning of the story, the protagonist Shinpei Amidai returned to his hometown of Hito Island to attend the funeral of his childhood sweetheart Xiaofushio, but unexpectedly fell into a crisis caused by the "shadow". In the process, Shinpei continues to die and be reborn, trying to solve the mystery and save the island. At the end of the story, by interpreting the previous experience as a strange dream, the story ends with a happy ending. This approach not only avoids deliberate sensationalism, but also opens up new space for interpretation of the work. In this dream, the relationship between Shen Ping and Xiao Zhouchao is not only the budding love of young girls, but also closely connected with the fate of their hometown. The special nature of the Summer Festival and the conversation between Shinpei and Kofunashio before leaving the present world three hundred years ago all reflect this intertwining of emotions. In addition, elements in dreams also have deep symbolic meanings. For example, the shadow of the boat tide symbolizes the embodiment of nostalgia, while the upside-down clock and the scenery outside the window indicate the chaos in life.
