About this deal

Sewaktu baca judul novel ini dan lihat covernya aku sama sekali gak kepikiran bahwa tema yang diangkat oleh novel ini tentang bullying. Aku kira novel ini kisahnya tentang manusia yang berubah jadi monster terus menyelamatkan atau menghancurkan kota, cerita-cerita semacam itulah ya. Novel ini juga memperlihatkan tahap perisakan dari mulai permusuhan dan pengabaian hingga akhirnya mulai menyentuh fisik. Anggota kelas yang tadinya diam saja kemudian mulai ikut-ikutan. Aku yang bacanya kaya "wah gila sih" tapi hal kaya gini emang beneran ada loh terjadi di dunia nyata. The film was released on July 11, 2015 in Japan and on January 13, 2016 in France. The film has also been licensed by Funimation and Madman Entertainment for release in the US and Australia respectively. Title Drop: The Japanese title literally translates to "The Beast's Child, which is how Ren describes Ichirouhiko after the end of their battle when commenting that they're the same. Four-Temperament Ensemble: Kumatetsu (Choleric), Ren/Kyuta (Melancholic), Tatara (Sanguine), and Hyakshubou (Phlegmatic).

There are reoccurring events of property destruction at the school during the course of the story. The baseball clubroom window is broken twice, and a classmate's shoes are shredded up. Midoriokawa makes a mention about Adachi's friend, Kasai, who she says "isn't a good person" when Adachi mentions the property destruction before disappearing. There's never any elaboration on this and leaves me wondering why it was even put in the story if it was never going to be resolved. Kalau kata aku ya, novel ini tuh tentang ''politik kelas". Di mana ada remaja saling berkelompok, kemudian sama-sama melakukan perisakan ke salah satu anak. Walaupun ngerasa hal itu salah tetap aja dilakukan karena takut kalau gak ikut merisak nggak ditemani atau malah jadi yang dirisak. Bagian favoritku di akhir ketika ucapan salam dan ketika Yano bilang begini ke Adachi. Huhu pengen peluk Yano dan Adachi T_TDeity of Human Origin: It's specified that humans can't do it but beasts can reincarnate as gods after years of training.

Also, there is a girl named Yano, who is very energetic in his class. Unfortunately, she got bullied because of her little bit of lousy noise, also some of the classmates think of her as a "strange person". She greets the classroom every morning with a playful voice but no one answers to her. Also, no one talks to her, and some serious bulliers even throw her books or shoes in the garbage box. The film also stars Suzu Hirose as Kaede, Kazuhiro Yamaji as Iōzen, Mamoru Miyano as Ichirōhiko, Kappei Yamaguchi as Jirōmaru, Keishi Nagatsuka and Kumiko Asō as Ren's parents, Haru Kuroki as the younger Ichirōhiko, Sumire Morohoshi as Chiko, Momoka Ōno as the younger Jirōmaru, Masahiko Tsugawa as Sōshi, Lily Franky as Hyakushūbō and Yo Oizumi as Tatara. Bittersweet Ending: Ichirouhiko is reunited with his adoptive family, and will presumably make peace with his origins. Kyuta/Ren decides to leave the magical realm for good and Kumatetsu willingly turned himself into a sword to save his surrogate son. Even so, the two will always be together, as Kumatetsu now lives inside of Kyuta as a God, plus Kyuta/Ren now has his relationships with his father and Kaede, so he won't be alone.Kemudian ia juga menyatakan bahwa perbedaan adalah suatu hal yang normal. Tidak mengetahui apa yang dipikirkan orang lain dan cara pandang yang berlawanan terkadang membuat kita terbebani. Padahal itu justru normal. That's just how the world works.

Acchi si tokoh utama juga mengalami pergulatan batin tentang jati dirinya yang sebenarnya. Saat siang hari dia menolak untuk berinteraksi dengan tokoh Yano, si anak perempuan yang dirisak di kelas. Tapi di malam hari dengan sosok monsternya, Acchi justru berinteraksi dengan Yano, walaupun awalnya hal itu nggak disengaja. Apakah sosok manusia adalah wujud aslinya? Atau justru sosok monster saat malam hari itu adalah wujud aslinya? Yang mana? Sosok manusianya adalah wujud baiknya? Atau malah sosok monster menyeramkan justru wujud baiknya? Nah loh? The internal conflict for Adachi of him struggling with his own morals and actions, of being a physical monster at night but a metaphorical one during the day. Whether people think so or not, being a teenager is really a scary time in your life. There's so much peer pressure to deal with in schools, and teenagers can be incredibly cruel and spiteful towards each other. Seeing Adachi struggle with wanting to protect Yano's midnight break but still being unable to stand up for her and even being a bully himself during the day was a very raw and realistic struggle for a character his age, and seeing how he had a serious self evaluation near the end when Yano asked him a question she initially asked when first meeting him, "Which is your real form? Daytime or Nighttime?" was quite intense to read. Battle Discretion Shot: The scene where Kyuta beats up the delinquents to rescue Kaede happens offscreen. Aku suka dengan tokoh Yano yang dianggap aneh, freak, gak ngapa-ngapain aja nyebelin. Tapi dia ternyata lebih bijak daripada temen-temen sekelasnya. Yano yang keliatannya gak peduli dengan sekelilingnya, ternyata dia yang paling peduli.Time-Shifted Actor: Aoi Miyazaki plays the child Kyuta, Haru Kuroki voices the younger Ichirohiko and Momoka Ono voices young Jiromaru. Superpowered Evil Side: According to this movie, all humans possess one, which is easier to trigger in the bakemono realm. Bunny-Ears Lawyer: The Lord, who literally has a set of bunny ears (as he's a rabbit), who is a seemingly goofy old fart who everyone in Jutengai respects implicitly. Several of the other lords that Kumatetsu and Kyuta visit to learn about strength also qualify. Yep itu kutipan gak salah tulis. Itu diucapkan sama Yano. Meski gak diulas lebih dalam, aku rasa Yano ini autis. Dia kerap ga bisa baca suasana, agak gak tanggap, dan gaya bicaranya juga beda (terlihat dari penulisan dialog Yano). Aku, Acchi, kun, dan anak-anak tadi semuanya be, da. Wajar kalau be, da. Tidak mungkin ta, hu pikiran orang lain." (h. 275)

Nhóm 3: Loại cho rằng người bị bắt nạt tệ, nhưng quyết định sẽ chỉ phớt lờ chứ không có gì đặc biệt. Attempted by Kyuta at the end of the film. His final option to fight a berserk Ichirouhiko was to open his own void, absorbing Ichirouhiko in the process. He would then stab himself, thus taking both of their lives. However... Banyak cerita sedih yang digambarkan (juga dengan kalimat penuh makna yang indah) sehingga aku tidak bisa lagi menahan tangis, terutama saat Yano bertanya pada Achi, "Your night... form or your day form... Which is... the real one?"

Secondary Verifications

Pada siang hari, Adachi adalah siswa biasa. Pada malam hari, dia adalah makhluk menakutkan dengan banyak mata dan banyak kaki yang bersembunyi di kegelapan. I feel like there's a lot to work with here but it suffered from pacing issues and some loose ends that left me feeling perplexed.
