'The Fish' review: Incredible performances meet profound storytelling

The appeal and evaluation of fish acrobatics - Sakana no Kyokugei

The animated film "Fish Acrobatics" was released on January 1, 1929, and is still loved by many fans for its unique worldview and artistry. This work is an original anime and is not derived from other media. Although it is a short work with only one episode, it is packed with deep messages and beautiful visuals.

Overview

As the name suggests, "Fish Acrobatics" is a simple story about fish performing various acrobatic tricks. However, it is in this simplicity that the essence of the work lies. The performance that the fish put on underwater draws the viewer into a fantastical world. Information about the director and production company is unknown, but their anonymity actually adds to the mystery of the work.

Visuals and Music

The greatest appeal of this work is undoubtedly its visuals. The colors bring out the beauty of the underwater world to the fullest and the movements of the fish match beautifully. In particular, in the scenes where the fish perform acrobatics, the changes in color and the reflections of light are skillfully depicted, giving the illusion of swimming underwater yourself. The music is also an important element in enhancing the atmosphere of the work. The background music, based on classical music, is perfectly synchronized with the movements of the fish, allowing you to enjoy the work with both your eyes and your ears.

Story and Message

The story of "Fish Acrobatics" is very simple, but it contains a profound message. The sight of the fish performing their acrobatics is a symbol of freedom and creativity, and teaches the viewer the importance of "living life as you are." Furthermore, the sight of the fish cooperating with each other to perform a successful performance illustrates the importance of teamwork and friendship. Such messages are still very important in modern society, and resonate with many people.
