"Mermaid" by Osamu Tezuka

Who is the main character?

A boy


What do you think is a discussion/conversation that the creator wants us to be part of?

People criticized a boy’s imagination and banned to be in a fantasy. I think a discussion in this video is if it's a bad thing to be in a fantasy, and whether he deserved the punishment.


What do you think happens at the end of the video and why? 

I think a boy swimming with mermaid means that he decided to live in a fantasy. I also think the ocean imply freedom and release from restriction. Other people watching him swimming could be the depiction of estrangement with him.
