Version: Vol 1- 17 (full version)
Introduction:
Author: Makoto Ogino
There are ghosts and gods, ghosts and gods fighting, and the legendary eschatological era. The combination of the two has produced an amazing magic.
The book Peacock King is divided into true stories and magical stories. Its true story began with 1986 and was serialized in Youth Jump, with a total volume of 17, written by Makoto Ogino, a famous Japanese ghost cartoonist. Because of the appearance of his peacock king, the second climax in the field of Japanese ghosts and gods was set off. He himself has a very profound religious knowledge, so Peacock King, which combines Buddhist thoughts, is also a landmark work in Japanese animation industry.
Rigaoye is a secret organization in Buddhism, whose task is to destroy monsters. Peacock is an exorcist of a talented man from Rigoye. He uses his magic and strength to fight against the dark devil. However, it is not easy to fully enjoy this kind of fun, provided that you have rich knowledge of religious myths. Because although it is the best of ghost symbols, a large number of tantric characters and terms in Peacock King may affect readers' understanding of it.
The theater version of Peacock King produced three OVA works in the 1990s, with independent plots and little connection with the real Peacock King later.
The Return of the Peacock King Ghost is the first part of the trilogy, which is promoted to a script by Huichuan, making people more intelligent. Perhaps because of the first film, this work was accused by many audiences of Peacock King as immature. The protagonist's appearance is not pleasing; Suspected of stealing role movements. The story tells that the idol of Asura was stolen and the old demon took the opportunity to resurrect. Then the peacock and the king joined forces against the enemy, and finally it was logical to save everyone from the quagmire. The plot is average, the fighting is wonderful, and all kinds of demons are eye-opening.
Phantom City of Peacock King was released at least one year later than the previous one, and the production level has been greatly improved. The script is still Sh? Aikawa, but the body design is changed to the famous Mo Sha Xue, so the characters, scenes, actions and so on are quite satisfactory. Huang Haifeng, a handsome Taoist in China, is added to the story, and the enemy is Nobunobu, a monster version. This article mainly tells that the archaeological team excavated two ancient paintings of Nobunobu to arouse Nobunobu's resurrection, in an attempt to use the hidden power in the ancient paintings to awaken Warcraft and destroy the world. It's still the same strategy as fighting comics. Wang and Peacock face different enemies respectively. In the end, of course, the protagonist Peacock challenged BOSS alone, completely eliminated the evil forces and got a happy ending. However, compared with the first film, this time it skillfully combines the history and legend about Nobuyoshi Oda, and with the gradual unveiling of the true features of the characters in the play, the plot has changed several times, and the peaks are one after another, which is quite attractive.
Peacock king cherry blossoms. 1994 and 1995. The script is Xia Benling and the character is kishida fumio Takahiro. This is a work close to the original work, including the part that needs "parental guidance". The story tells the tragic experience of the death command, who was resentful because of his accidental death. This resentment haunts himself and the world, causing all kinds of accidents. Peacock and others jointly overthrew the necromancer headquarters and finally made the evil spirits disappear.
True Peacock King, Monty's Resurrection Episode I, Kunlun Mingdong Episode II. This theatrical version is divided into two episodes, which is out of the unit drama mode of eliminating demons. According to the cartoon adapted from the true story of Peacock King, a long story is used to describe the various relationships between Peacock and his sister Wang Pengzi, which is tense and wonderful.
In the distant era of the gods, there was a fierce battle between light and darkness, betting on the hegemony of the world. In this epoch-making battle, the victorious god of light sealed the dark clan in the dark and buried it underground for a long time. However, the lucky dark manager, Mr. Eight Lords, is planning to greet the new emperor after the Millennium with the secret Roman as the center. When the yellow star shines in the sky, the dark prince who embraces the Dragon Cup will become the king of snakes, causing disaster on the ground.
Peacock was killed by an unknown monster, and its owner was killed to protect him. With full of questions, Peacock came to the exorcist's headquarters, Gaoye, where he knew his life experience. It turns out that he and his sister are both sons of darkness and can be descendants of the snake king. Now neo-Nazi organizations are using Peacock's sister Tomoko as the heir to the Snake King, looking for a secret treasure that can unlock the dark seal-the Dragon Cup. The Dragon Cup was finally taken away, and Pengzi, the peacock's sister, became the snake king with the resentment of being abandoned that year. It seems that the hope of mankind can only be pinned on the peacock king who once defeated the snake king. Unexpectedly, the real Peacock King is actually a dark clan ... Although it was written three or four years ago, it is still a fascinating masterpiece. Because the original plot of more than ten episodes has been adapted into 120-minute ova, the plot has shrunk again and become compact and wonderful. The music is also very nice and worth listening to.
The protagonist of The Peacock King is of course a peacock. In The Peacock King, he is an exorcist who inherits the powerful power of the peacock King Ming. He used this power to stand firm and tenaciously against the dark forces. Of course, he is also a boy who grew up in the city. He is naughty and aggressive, and sometimes he feels a little silly and sexy.
The power of peacock inheritance comes from the peacock king, who is a figure in Buddhist allusions and is also known as the "Buddha mother peacock king". His standard is like a four-armed bodhisattva riding a golden peacock. The practice of respecting the Ming king is the most important practice of Tantric Buddhism. In Hinduism, the peacock is a bird that eats poisonous snakes and insects, and its body is full of toxins, so the peacock king is also called the "unclean god". In the Peacock Classic, it is said that a person's right thumb was bitten by a big black snake, and the Buddha handed him the Peacock Mantra, saying that this mantra can eliminate all poison, fear, disaster and trouble. Mr. Kono named the hero peacock, which is probably what he meant!
Tantric Buddhism was originally a sect of Buddhism, and later it spread in Japan. Peacock often recites the phrase "March, fight, fight, array, array, array", which is actually the mantra of Tantric Sect.
Peacock's friend is a lively, cheerful and jealous girl named Asura. In Indian Buddhist mythology, Asura was originally a deity and a god of destruction. But in the cartoon of Peacock King, the author regards her as the incarnation of Buddha.
The king of The Road to the Golden Curse is the peacock's old partner in The Demon, and he is in every movie. His appearance is always imposing, wearing sunglasses and cool clothes, and he is overbearing and imposing. But although he looks like a gangster, he is actually a very loyal temperament middleman. Especially for peacocks, he did his duty to protect them, and Qi Xin fought side by side with him. Even, Wang Renwan will use his life to help the peacock, accompany him to the dragon cave, and block the enemy's attack for him. Therefore, Wang is a very popular character among readers of Peacock King. In The Peacock King, he is set as the incarnation of the God of War and the patron saint of the kitchen, darkness.
Another popular character in comics and ova is Huang Haifeng. He is a Taoist figure in China, and his Taoism is very strong. Although speaking and doing things gives people the feeling of indifference, aloof and a little arbitrary, it is also emotional and righteous. In addition, the author painted him very handsome, so he was very popular with the audience.
The two brothers and sisters, Sunshine and Harle, should have originated from the Sunshine Bodhisattva and Moonlight Bodhisattva in Tantric Buddhism. Their father is said to be the former chief pharmacist of Rigaoye in Peacock King. In The Peacock King, Mr. Kono obviously made artistic processing and regarded the Tathagata as the patron saint of sunshine. Harle also has some connections with Japanese Shintoism.
In Phantom City of Peacock King, the famous Noshin Oda is portrayed as a villain. Maybe this is from a Buddhist point of view. Nobunaga once expressed his determination to fight against Buddhist forces and slaughter Buddhist children. No wonder Buddhist believers hate him and call him "the enemy of Buddhism".
A mythical world, with immortals, monsters, monsters and powerful wizards and Taoist priests, is the world of peacocks. If you like this kind of story, Peacock King definitely meets your requirements. After The Peacock King, Makoto Ogino also created a series of other works, such as The Nightingale, but The Peacock King is obviously an insurmountable peak for him. After that, his works began to repeat and go downhill.
