Why didn't they screen Coraline in Kota Kinabalu? :( It's a TIM BURTON MOVIE for heaven's sake. (isn't it?) Instead they put out movies like Drag Me To Hell and some other movies that I don't remember the name of because they are just too... In addition to Coraline, i also wanna watch: BRAVE STORY the animated movie. :D the main characters, Wataru and Mitsuru, appeared in Brave Story: New Traveller- the psp game that i've FINALLY FINISHED!!! But only as guests. The movie stars them, especially Wataru. it's about how his 'happy' family starts to fall apart, and Mitsuru, his friend, shows him the Door which leads them to Vision, a... well, magical land of sorts. Wataru has to journey across Vision to get one Wish granted. And I suppose that Wish is to bring his family back together.
Pretty ordinary.
However, what interests me the most is this part which i saw in a trailer on YouTube: (SPOILER ALERT!!!!!)Mitsuru, i think, was going sorta berserk. and I guess it's for the sake of getting his Wish granted. so there was this flash of Wataru, thinking: "i wonder, is it okay to do anything for this wish?" my conclusion is that whilst Wataru is still pure and good-hearted, Mitsuru sort of became obsessed about getting his wish granted. however, that is only my guess. in Brave Story the game, there was a pretty cool twist at the end. i like playing RPG because it's like a fantastical movie, only you get to take part in the action too. i guess the game reflects the movie. Wataru the hero, in my game, is Sharace (i picked this name) the hero. Movie kitkin (catgirl) is Meena, whilst Game kitkin is Yuno. Movie Chief Highlander (Vision police) is Kutz; Game Chief Highlander is Meladee. Movie Waterkin is Kee Keema; Game Waterkin is Sogreth. And in the game, there are two additional characters: Leynart, a Knight of Stengal (ramkin? lambkin? he has two horns) and Ropple, a very intelligent elf who finally learnt how to understand other people's emotions. my favorite character, however, is the protagonist-turned-antagonist: Rei. (MORE SPOILER ALERT!!!) At first, he seems to be the only and final enemy of Sharace (my game hero). He's a 'Traveller', just like Sharace, which means he is also a human being who was allowed into Vision to have one wish granted. But he is evil, and will do whatever it takes to get his wish. He killed a lot of people. Typical bad guy.
In short: Rei has these horrible, bad memories which he can't stand. Memories of what? I don't know. Of being lonely? But he is obessesed about getting his wish because he wants his memories wiped off. Obessesed enough to set free a legion of demons into Vision, just for the sake of getting his wish. sounds like a certain someone in the movie. but in the end, he was betrayed by the Demon King, and was about to be killed by the demons when Sharace and his friends protected him. That was when he told them half his story, and in the end, used his magic to send them away from the demon-infested place even though that meant leaving him alone to fend for himself. gosh, i totally fell in love with him at that point. After I finished the game, Rei's familiar voice was heard as Sharace was talking to Ressie. His foster parents were heard talking about how changed Rei was. Happy Ending. :D Brave Story Trailer

He killed a lot of people. Typical bad guy.
But then, when he was about to kill Sharace's sick friend, Ressie (who was unconscious in a hospital on Earth), he could not bring himself to do it. immediately my heart softened for him. one of the characters in the game talked about how everyone has a good and evil side in them. the good guys are only lucky that they are in environments where their good can be developed. the bad guys, being caught in difficult situations, become bad. in Rei's case, he was actually a nice guy. But he knows that, when he was born, his mother dumped him in the park toilet 'like some turd she laid'. he was hurt, very hurt that his own birth mother threw him away like that.
So he worked extra hard to prove himself, and finally got the attention of a couple, Hospital Directors. Here is the part I don't get: They love him, but he just can't bring himself to love them back. Like, why? I don't know. Perhaps he doesn't dare to trust them with his love. Maybe he cannot understand how these people can actually love him when his own mother abandoned him.
