Ozu Yasujiro once said: Movies determine victory or defeat by their aftertaste.

Similarly, any art form is judged by its aftertaste. This is true for movies, music, and animation.

"Cha No. 2 Middle School" has never been considered the conscience of national comics. Its story is simple, there are no conflicts, and the pictures are not beautiful. Its producer is not a wealthy animation company, there is little publicity, and there is no strong cast of voice actors.

But fortunately it is real enough.

"Cha No. 2 Middle School" tells the story of a period that every post-90s generation will experience. It is also a genre that has been lacking in domestic animation.

It is too close to our youth: the ugly uniforms; the vicious but kind-hearted head teacher; the crowded game arcades and Internet cafes after school; not many handsome men and beautiful women to see; never going to school. Physical education class.

"Tea No. 2 Middle School" is not a work that can make your eyes shine, but it is a work that can always remind you and recall it.

It will bring back your memories of that time, the breath of youth blowing against your face, and the deep homesickness brought about by the endless dialect in the animation.

These emotions are particularly strong in the fourth season of "Tea No. 2 Middle School".

The last episode of the fourth season was the graduation ceremony of the third grade of Cha Ah No. 2 Middle School. Wang Qiang and the others were asked by their teacher to prepare a program for the seniors of the graduating class at the graduation ceremony.

Colako, who is in the third grade of junior high school, is a well-known gangster who is uneducated and unpopular with his teachers. Wang Qiang found Coraco and asked Coraco to form a band with him to perform on stage.

Colaco’s younger brother Railfu also found Colaco, and he prepared a special gift for his boss - a collection of photos of every class in Tea No. 2 Middle School. It was at this time that there was such a conversation between Colaco and Ralph.

"Go to class quickly"

"Aren't you skipping class?"

"Why are you running away? How many classes are there left?"

It was also from this conversation that the atmosphere of this animation suddenly became melancholy.

On the theme of separation, "Tea No. 2 Middle School" captures the theme particularly well - it does not use the first perspective of the protagonists to show the sad theme of the graduation season, but from the perspective of a bystander. and extreme cases to highlight the atmosphere of separation.

Many times we don’t need animations with strange world views and adventures, even if they are exciting. What we need is a common but warm and touching story that happens around us. We have been waiting for a long time, but we have not yet seen the fat school uniforms and the bright and clean classrooms.
