Gundam SEED: The Light and Shadow of the Stars

. I didn't expect that after so many years, I would still inadvertently see the fan recommendation of seed. As a loyal audience back then, I naturally read this novel. It's hard to imagine that this is a novel written 10 years ago. Although it is obvious that the author's writing skills are somewhat lacking in some places, you can also feel the author's care for this article. There are not many logical bugs in the whole text, and the secondary content is within a reasonable range, and it can It's obvious that the author has exercised restraint. Even though he didn't like some of the characters in the original work, he didn't do anything that went against the character's personality. I'm very happy. The two things I'm most afraid of when reading fan fiction are: one is the character design changed by demons, and the other is the background changed by demons. You can create a second creation, but there are magic changes. The problem is, the author has done a good job on this point. To be honest, in fact, what everyone should be able to discover is that the original work is indeed a naive animation creation. Although it tries hard to be close to reality in some aspects, it is always false. However, in this novel, the author strives to be more realistic. It is closer to reality without destroying the original work. Although some parts are still too unreal due to the inherent shortcomings of the original work, as a fan work, I think it is qualified. It is logically self-consistent, there are no big bugs, and there are no settings that destroy the original work. After all, fandom is essentially a hypothesis, a discussion of the possibilities of what would happen. What I like most is the author's treatment of Orb and politics in the original work. Although it is still a bit superficial compared to real politics, it is enough for seed. After all, in the real world, a country like Orb is unlikely to exist, and the third way is even more impossible. The simplest example is the Beautiful Country, where the black and white skin color controversy has lasted for 200 years, not to mention the Ganges Country. The caste system among people with the same skin color still exists, even in ourselves. You will also find that from ancient times to the present, the only way to bring peace to different nations is to eliminate differences and then merge similar items, that is, the east wind overwhelms the west wind and completes the rule. It is almost impossible to have other options. After all, there is only one ruling group and only one ruling class, not to mention that the difference between the adjuster and the natural person is more obvious. If it happens in the real society, the possibility of merging similar items does not exist, which basically represents an ending. But after all, it's an original work and an anime, so there's nothing wrong with that. Finally, as an old anime fan many years ago, I am very grateful to the author for giving me a rare and good reading experience, which prevents me from reading the text completely without thinking. After all, the original work really can't be watched with too much thought, although it is still one of my favorite series. But I still want to ask, why can a country like Orb exist? It has a small land area and is known as peaceful. It can also have developed economy, technology and military. Why? All corrupt countries have to rely on colonization to develop. Which other big and powerful country doesn't have vast land and resources? Sure enough, you can't use your brain

Every time I want to read a seed fan, I read this article. It really has been years.

No, does anyone really think that some of the views in this article are really wrong?

Recently I have added some official novels and radio dramas of seed d. Later in the SD novel, it was stated that although AC's hearts were together, the two could no longer be a couple. That will make the two people lose their personalities and eventually lose this love. C himself has already figured it out, and is ready to marry Guo Jia, work hard for Aub's career, and hopes that M will be by A's side. It can be said that the official has molded C to be like Elizabeth I. He will never marry and work hard for his Guo Jia. Even if you love someone, you won't be with him. The above has confirmed AC's breakup, but I don't think A will be with M before or after the end of the plot. A is not such a fast-paced person. The blow of falling out of love will leave him idle for at least a few years. It is not certain whether he will be with M in the future. But in the above ending, although both of them have grown up, they are not the sunny and lively Cagalli and the elegant Aslan that the audience originally liked, but two social people whose edges and enthusiasm have been erased by reality. Therefore, it is not necessarily bad for this kind of AC in the article to end in the highlight of passionate love and life and death. It only takes a moment for some people to fall in love, but they can never be forgotten in their lifetime.

After reading the book again, I found that I am even more extreme and cannot understand the Plants group at all. The Adjusters are really a new race that is completely different from humans, and they are really threatening the natural people. They cannot live in peace at all. If the natural people lose the battle and return to peace, it will directly mean that all second-class citizens will never be reincarnated, and the earth will be a pure colony. Ah, if I were to join Rambos in this world, I would either exterminate the adjusters or die. I still understand, I just don't understand. (However, according to the original animation, the world view adjuster was going to die because it could not reproduce. This book has to be continued through a continuation. I just hope that the natural people in this world will not give up the struggle and not give the protagonist's aura over there a wit.)

I have a little doubt, everyone will grow, so why not give Cagalli room to grow and limit it to the plot of the original work [face covering]

A friend recommended this article. After reading it, I talked about the fanfic with my friends, and they all agreed that this article is one of the most classic fanfics. Not just SEED fans. Fans of male authors think about harems and competition for hegemony, while fans of female authors think about beauties and love. This is probably the general status quo in the fandom. Distortion and collapse can be seen everywhere. It is already very difficult to preserve the spiritual outlook of the original characters, let alone complete settings, exciting plots and depth of ideas. This article is a wonderful one, it does all the above, applaud and spread the flowers~~ First of all, Lux in this article is ideal. She is selfish, but she is not the kind of girl who is so selfish that she only cares about herself. She is selfish for the people around her and the country where she lives. She has great love, but she is not the kind of Madonna who is so perfect and lofty that it only makes people think she is false. In the troubled times created by prejudice and hatred, freedom and dignity, her physical limitations prevented her from going to the battlefield. However, in the darkness of the political arena, she shouldered greater pressure and guilt in order to preserve the remaining beauty and warmth in her heart. "Real politics, in the best case, is like this - use hypocrisy to protect the truth, use sin to protect justice, use despicability to protect the sublime." Although he said it to Cagalli, this was also Lux's own political declaration, right? The political arena is already too dark, but someone has to step up. We cannot always count on popular autonomy, especially in a place like PLANT where a new country desperately needs cohesion. Lux is just strong enough to take on the responsibilities that others think are dark and dirty (including A and C) and do not want to take on or avoid. Deep understanding and acting ability have become must-have skills. So, even if her sincerity was regarded as a show, she swallowed the bitterness and faced it with a smile. The path of growth is clearly visible, but even in the end, she will be anxious, regretful, afraid, hopeful, and persistent... Such a girl is so admirable and so real that she feels beautiful. So ideal. Therefore, getting a perfect love is a matter of course. Although her first love died young, she met Aslan at the wrong time and for the wrong reasons. Aslan's feelings for her should not be shallow, but fate played a trick and failed to truly commit to Lux's father before his death, so no one could look back. And compared with Aslan, Kira in this article is undoubtedly her more suitable partner. Because Kira in this article is also ideal. The author added the first encounter with KL, which allowed him to open his eyes to see the world early, making him grow up earlier and stronger than in the original text (and also avoided Fleur's rotten peach blossom~) But no matter how early she grows up, Kira will never be as cool and domineering as some male protagonists in novels. He is powerful, he is strong, but he is always kind and considerate of others. Therefore, despite being carefully taken care of by Lux, Aslan was hesitant about Lux's political nature. Although she was clearly plotted by Lux, Kira first saw the light Lux was guarding in the darkness and saw the pressure of being a sword holder. From now on, I am willing to be the sharpest sword in her hand. Huh? At first glance, why do you think they are the template of a sinister queen and a gentle and loyal dog? Lux can obviously be innocent and romantic, and Kira also has a naturally dark side. The relationship deepens step by step, and each becomes the spiritual support of the other. The KLs in the article support each other and move forward hand in hand like an animation, but they are undoubtedly more delicate and profound. There is no need for any misunderstandings or entanglements to embellish it. This is the best in KL. Harmonious but different, completely complementary. However, no matter how beautiful KL's relationship is, its proportion in the whole story is indeed not high. This article is the first time I have seen a profound analysis of an original world in SEED and even in the entire fandom. PLANT's journey to independence and strength is very exciting, with war and reflections on war and human nature throughout. But it's not like the original work, which preaches "goodwill is everything", or like some apocalyptic novels, which templates the dangers of human nature. In the original work, the third force did not find a way to end the war and could not find it, but after learning the original lessons, Lux in this article has earned peace for at least several decades. In addition to the male and female protagonists, the concept and plot, many outstanding supporting characters are also well portrayed. Not to mention the in-depth portrayal of "marginal characters" such as Yitzhak, Diego, Ray, and Durandal in the original work, there are also many brilliant features in many spin-offs and original characters. There are really few real villains in the whole story, except for those racist lunatics. From Lux and Durandal, to the Mina siblings, Su, Remiret, the Liu couple, and even Klein, Sara and Asha going forward, these chess players who play chess with the whole world as their chessboard, just as Lin Yuxin said - The future we want is not that much different. But because of different beliefs, they fought to the death. There may be winners and losers, but they all left wonderful traces in this period of history. This fanfic is very long, but just looking at these plots and characters, I feel that it should be so long. It is not the repetitive entanglement, boring misunderstandings and polyamory like Korean dramas. The story just follows the wonderful and reasonable battle of wits and courage, and the battle of life and death, step by step towards the predetermined end. In comparison, with the brilliance of so many wonderful characters, especially women, even chess pieces like Bella and Peggy, soldiers like Malu, and "ordinary people" like Millie, Lux certainly doesn't need to rely on others of the same sex to highlight herself like some heroines. She has the beauty and temperament that makes her stand out among the red flowers, but the other original heroine, Cagalli, seems inconspicuous. It can be seen that the author still has a certain preference for her. Or is it because of her status as one of the original heroines? But it feels like her role is not worthy of the exaggeration given to her. Contrary to Lux, Cagalli is typically tough on the outside but soft on the inside. Not very fragile, but not very strong either. Being a warrior is fine, but when she's Prime Minister... He is in his position and does not pursue politics. He has been prime minister for two years and is willing to be a pawn. He is ignorant of politics, naive in mind and immature in diplomacy. I saw that many of her fans defended her completely as Cagalli, but these fans' understanding of politics, military, diplomacy and the like are often as naive and ignorant as Cagalli herself. Just like Cagalli, she only sees what she wants to see and hears what she wants to hear. Cagalli's performance in the second part of the original work has been extremely deceiving and deceiving her teammates. Once the author restores it in this article, there are so many other wonderful characters who are interpreting their own lives. Cagalli, whose bright and straightforward personality is incompatible with the position of Prime Minister, once she loses the editor's unremitting focus and praise, her words and deeds appear to be extremely dim. Even Aslan was implicated... Although it's understandable, I really want Aslan to walk away. Long live the breakup! Personally, I feel that it would be much better if Cagalli was treated as a general supporting role like Fleur and Stella in this article. Treating her like the second female lead... Only makes her look worse. Works from several years ago. After reading it, I am still so verbose. This is a tribute to one of the most classic fandoms that seems to have been buried. Because you are so different.

But looking back at the original work, the butt is quite crooked. Adjusters have been representatives of the upper class since they first appeared. In the end, in order to set the four protagonists as adjusters (the only one who is not an adjuster is a fool), they have to twist the adjusters into a vulnerable group. They have the nerve to communicate with each other. Yamato can understand his classmates. He also said that "adjusters don't know everything at the beginning and have to learn it." How can he and his classmates learn it? So leaving a semi-disabled ending in the end won't solve anything, because it was wrong from the beginning. There is a solution here. Caste society, where birth determines the whole life, is a solution. But it is better for Lux to be more extreme. Natural people provide sperm and eggs for unified institutional cultivation, and then randomly distribute the embryos for adjustment. The well-adjusted ones are given to the high-level adjusters whose parents will be the rulers, and the adjusted ones are given to the general adjusters to be the society. The worker bees who are poorly adjusted are assigned to manual labor, and the natural men and women are kept separately in captivity. They are brainwashed directly from childhood, and the males are reduced to a few to eliminate the possibility of rebellion. The females are directly used as fertility machines. This is not a one-and-done thing, but it also saves the author from cheating - why does this setting look so familiar? Oh, it's not "Brave New World", it's so beautiful.

I seem to have read this novel before, but I read it again recently, and I was still attracted by the plot. The writing is really great. I admire my wife so much, I love her so much

I sincerely hope the author can still read this comment. My childhood was seed. I would like to thank the author for writing this supplement for seed. This is the most complete story in my mind. I first watched it when I was in junior high school. Now that I have been working for two years after graduating from college, looking back at Seed, I still can't help but watch Light and Shadow of Stars again. I'm very glad that I had the chance to read this novel when I was in junior high school. Thank you for writing such a work. Ten years later, it can still make people intoxicated.
