YOU CAN (NOT) REPLAY

 

  • What is this person doing?
  • Are the piano and the cogs in the background connected?
  • Why is the person glowing?
  • What do you think the title means? What if the title was ‘You Can Replay’? How does ‘not’ change the meaning? Why is ‘not’ in brackets?
  • How could you link this picture and its title to the idea of life and death?
  • Do you know of any other books or films about a piano? Link to, and compare with, The Piano, Monkey Symphony and The Bear and The Piano.

      No, I don’t think this is manga. Manga is read from right to left. This is probably Japanese-inspired art, but not manga.

        I think they meant the art style. As somebody who watches a lot of anime and reads manga, I can tell that this is in the anime/manga art style. There is no text so where are you getting the evidence about the comics from? Manga panels can be laid out like this

    Melissa walked up the steps of the Great Clocktoeer listening to the graceful music of a piano. It was like a lullaby. When she reached the top, she gasped. “Simon?!” She cried. The boy on the piano turned around d and smiled.

    “I can’t stop playing a tune, that’s why I can get away with humming at school.” He said, “because I’m a timekeeper. I keep the beat of time even. You also have Coco, Andrew and Hailey, the other timekeepers. Coco protects life, Andrew protects home and Hailey protects the Great Clock.”

    The young man stared blankly at the stars wondering “when will my punishment end?”. He had been at this piano for a hundred years, he was lucky that he didn’t have to wind the clock (that was in his village) but he had lost his family when he did something that cost him his life.The stars had trapped him in a linked dimension (the stars and earth) they are always looking down at every person. If someone did something horrificly cruel (like what he did) and give them a two hundred years of a punshiment in there home town. In addition you will die and live for eternity only seeing your family at night.
    Sadly he wished he could replay that moment.”You can (not) replay.”.He just had to wait an another hundred years when a mysterios green light surronds him he will live in happines.

    the young boy turned round and thought “when will i be able to use my weapons and fight with my viking clan” i’ve had enough of playing the piano to warn other tribes that they are alert.

    yeah, I think this is anime. my friend knows a lot about anime and she told me that it was anime. I think she said that because of his anime hairstyle.

    Once lived a boy who had the dream to be the best pianist in the world.But first he needed to find a piano because he poor.But he found one.But now he needed to learn how to play it but thankfully a friend at school had piano lessons so he taught all of the important things.So every day he went to the top of his house and practiced and he became a pro pianist.
