CATDOLL: The movie version of "Lovelive!" was selected as a candidate for the Japanese SF Award. The reason is unknown but it feels impressive.

Speaking of the popular works that have attracted strong money this year, it must be "Love Live!". Not only that, the theatrical version released this year has set a record for late-night box office. This project, which was not optimistic when it was first launched, has only gained more and more attention in recent years, and even spawned a new "Love Live! Sunshine! !". Don't think that it is only popular in the second dimension. Recently, the "Love Live!" theatrical version was selected as a candidate for the 36th Japan SF Award, and the reason for the selection can be described as "unclear but impressive".

Here are the reasons:

Have you ever seen the legendary movie called "VALIS" released in 1977? This work is full of metaphors and mysterious revelations, releasing pink light into the audience's brain. And 38 years later, under the guidance of a huge and active information system, such a movie with mysterious revelations was born in Japan. Although this work is just a documentary about the "school idol group μ's shocking announcement of disbandment", it has added various new trendy SF elements. For example, the distinction between the external world and the inner world of the characters has become blurred, and the actions of the protagonists are not accompanied by the sense of reality seen from the outside world, but are freed from the constraints of the timeline and causality. In addition, religious metaphors are displayed everywhere in the work. The shadow of the protagonist turns into a cross, and in the end it seems to dance in paradise. Just like the United States in the 1970s, Japan is now in the vortex of political turmoil. It is also inspiring that such a work is released.

Regarding the reasons for the selection, many netizens commented: "See, LL is indeed a religion, you have all been brainwashed!" "Ah? I actually watched such a profound work? I am so insignificant for only thinking about prpr!" "No matter how you look at it, this can't be seen as SF..." "Don't label it as SF just because it's a film produced by Sunrise!" "What's the cross and paradise? I don't understand it at all! Who can explain it to me..." In addition, some careful netizens discovered that works including "School-Lonely Island", "Love Killing Baby", "Idol Activity" and other works were also selected. If the final winning work really appears among them, perhaps it will trigger a wave of complaints at that time?
