What is the meaning of the son of the weather?

I think the deep meaning of the son of the weather is the expression of love. Son of the Weather tells the story of a boy named Van Gogh who ran away from home in the summer of his first year in high school and came to Tokyo alone. Van Gogh had a hard time finding a job for a strange book? Mystery magazine? Writing and living in loneliness and poverty. The torrential rain for several days seems to have caused his loss. In the corner of this chaotic metropolis, Van Gogh met a lovely young girl, Cai Yang. She has incredible energy and different powers to purify the sky. Since then, his life has changed.

On the surface, this is not such a movie, but an adult fairy tale. I'm not talking about 18-year-old adults with full civil capacity. I'm talking about children who are fascinated by this hazy world and its colorful scenery. They are hardworking working class. They are fresh graduates who just graduated from school and are very confused. They are us. We often hit a wall and get hurt. They want to take a nap, only to find that there is no place for us in this world. Or you can say that they want to be children of adults and adults who want to get rid of bondage. This is the audience of this film.

There are many metaphors in this film. For example, at the beginning of the movie, Cai Yang's mother's bracelet in the hospital bed became Cai Yang's necklace. At the end of the day, when the two men came back from the world in the clouds, the necklace around Cai Yang's neck broke. This symbolizes another thing and Cai Yang's decision to live for himself and not be bound by the past. The first mention of the loss of private guns in the film refers to the literal guns. Then, when the gun appeared in Van Gogh, the gun here was not a literal gun. It represents the props and the power to resist the rules, so when a child with a gun points at an adult who represents the rules, it means that an immature person is finally qualified to negotiate with the rules on an equal basis.

Living in today's society, we unconsciously have too many shackles, such as? Life on the island is unbearable for me? . When we are friends? Warmer? In the mouth of a confidant? Gentleman? In the eyes of parents? Smart people? In the eyes of the boss? Careerist? . We can't say clearly whether we are like this, or whether we don't live in our own way in his population, which will collapse. The collapse embarrassed everyone. What makes you breathless at the moment is these shackles, these unbreakable rules. Obviously, the son of the weather in Makoto Shinkai doesn't want to please everyone this time. The core idea revealed by Makoto Shinkai in the film is not to protect the greater self.
