Childhood Anime Grand Tour

"Little one, come with me! How about we leave this place of trouble?"

The little guy looked at Liu Yufei with some confusion. Under the protection of Liu Yufei's healing power, the surrounding black water could not harm him, so the little guy looked at Liu Yufei with doubt.

At this moment, Monk Geda had no time to care about Liu Yufei. Huanji over there also threw her head into the air. Monk Geda, who caught the head, swayed from side to side, but his face was full of joy.

Meanwhile, the black giant slowly grew limbs, leaned against the withered tree, and slowly stood up. This time, these people did not have the courage to kill gods as before, and they knew that muskets were useless against this thing, so they immediately ran outside with all their might.

The White Wolf God had already been swallowed by the solution and had not left his head to bite Huan Ji. However, Huan Ji was also in a bad situation at the moment. After the monk Geda left, her path had been blocked.

At the last moment, Okayama finally showed his responsibility as a man, and after saying that, he was about to carry Princess Eboshi across the solution, but fortunately Ashitaka emerged from the lake.

"Run! This way, into the lake!!"

Upon seeing this, Huanji immediately got off Gangshan and jumped into the water!

"I can't swim!!"

You tell me, this guy is useless except for his loyalty. As a samurai, he can't even swim!

Ashitaka, seeing that Princess Eboshi wasn't moving fast, immediately came to help. This scene was witnessed by San on the shore, while the wolf god was still grieving for his mother's passing.

San immediately pulled off the pendant Ashitaka had given her around her neck, but her anger was powerless at that moment. However, San made a choice at that moment: to live and die with the forest and sacrifice herself to the Kirin god.

San truly hated Ashitaka! At that moment, she gripped the knife tightly in her hand and charged towards him.

"Give her to me, I'm going to kill her!!"

It was understandable that Shan wanted to kill Huan Ji, but at this moment Huan Ji seemed to have given up. If she died by Shan's blade, she would deserve it. Huan Ji wasn't unaware of the price of killing a god, but she hadn't expected it to cause such a disaster.

But if she could do it all over again, she would still choose to shoot. And if Shan wanted to kill her now, she would be willing to give her own life to end the hatred.

This is Huan Ji, a person, a person full of contradictions!

Although Princess Eboshi chose death, Ashitaka did not immediately stand in front of San!

"Now is not the time for hatred. I promised Ah Shi I would take her back!!"

This is unbearable for anyone, let alone a woman! Ashitaka also resented Princess Eboshi at this moment, but his curse had already spread all over his body, and he knew that his time was running out. He did not want to leave with resentment.

On the opposite bank of the lake, the black giant had fully grown limbs, and its enormous body crouched on the ground, groping around, trying to find its head.

"He's looking for his head. We have to help him, or the forest will be doomed!! Shan, will you help me?"

At this moment, Ashitaka was undoubtedly the most rational! San, however, took a step back, while the wolf god stared intently at Princess Eboshi behind Ashitaka, as if he were about to tear her to pieces at any moment.

"I'm not helping. Since you're on the side of humans now, you'd better take this woman and get out of here right now!!"

Clearly, San hadn't lost her mind due to hatred; otherwise, she would have rushed over already. Ashitaka took two steps forward, his eyes filled with shock and boundless grievance. He didn't know what he had done wrong. Now even San was treating him like this!

"Shan!!"

Ashitaka felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if being pricked by needles, but he still called out softly.

"Get out of here! I hate every human being!!"

Although Shan's tone was angry, tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke, revealing the inner turmoil she was experiencing.

Mother's death, forest destruction, faith collapse, lover's betrayal—how to put it? This is the world we live in. If this were the Naruto world, the two of them would have awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan immediately.

At this moment, Ashitaka's heart finally broke down, and he looked at San in front of him with tears glistening in his eyes.

"Yes, I am human too, but Shan, you are human too! We are the same!"

"Shut up! I am a wolf, a wolf of the forest!"

"Shan!!"

"do not come!!"

Ashitaka tried to embrace the poor girl, but San suddenly stabbed him in the chest. Ashitaka didn't dodge or back down; instead, he stepped forward and hugged San tightly!

This moment is eternal. If San were to run away, Ashitaka's heart would truly shatter. But San was merely venting her anger. When she realized Ashitaka hadn't dodged, she was startled. Looking at the man before her, she realized he was a complete idiot.

San's expression finally softened, and Ashitaka immediately put his arm around her.

"I'm sorry, I've tried my best!!"

This sentence pretty much sums up the theme! Throughout the journey, Ashitaka's heart was good; he tried his best to avoid conflict, even at the cost of leaving himself battered and bruised, but in the end, he was powerless to stop it.

Ashitaka has a clear conscience about everything he did, and in the end, it all boils down to one sentence: He did his best!

Indeed, Ashitaka really did his best, but his ideals were too lofty, and this world was too corrupt.

The most valiant warrior Otsuki, the Kirin god who controls life and death, the wolf god who has let go of hatred, and Ashitaka who has tried to influence others with his heart—in the end, they still could not stop human desires.

Whether it's a filthy, lumpy monk, a powerful figure from the old world, or a phantom princess from the new world, they all eventually fall into their own web of desires, struggling desperately but sinking deeper and deeper.

The old world preyed on its own kind, the new world preys on nature, but nature is ultimately finite, and Dadara will eventually also follow the path of preying on its own kind.

How could Ashitaka, as a human, possibly stop the conflict? This is the greatest tragedy!

Ashitaka has clear eyes, so he can see Tadara's predicament, the filth of the Edo, and of course, the beauty of nature.

But are these things useful? The world is never short of people who discover problems, but it is always short of people who can solve them. If we create bigger problems in order to solve the problems at hand, it is putting the cart before the horse.

That's how Huanji solved it: she resolved the immediate problem and left the bigger problems for the future.

But can you say she's wrong? If she can't even manage the present hardships, how can she talk about poetry and distant places in the future?

Humanity has already won, which is not what Ashitaka wanted to see, but he has no choice but to continue rescuing humans because he and San are also human.

Humans themselves have to solve the problems they create, if there is still a chance, but... will Liu Yufei give them that chance?

The black giant, unable to find its head on the ground, immediately stretched out its body, reaching towards the sky. Its entire body split into two, slowly extending outwards, as if to devour the entire forest!

The corrosive power of the giant quickly mixed with the raindrops and spread outwards at an extremely fast speed.
