I believe that many people born in the 80s and 90s have watched "Little Master of China". It is also a cartoon full of childhood memories. The many delicacies that appear on it make people look up to their feet and envy them. To be honest, I only learned about Mapo Tofu and Egg Fried Rice after watching this cartoon. After eating it later, I thought it was delicious and I completely fell in love with these two dishes. Now I eat them often.

When I was a child, I always thought that this cartoon was made in China. Later, when I heard from my friends that it was made in Japan, I was sad for a long time. How could the Japanese write such delicious Chinese food? However, this animation is also one of the rare ones where you don’t know the protagonist’s name after watching it. Although everyone knows that the protagonist is Conan in “Detective Conan”, they also know that the original name is Kudo Shinichi, but Little Master knows the name after watching it. It's the little boss now.

Actually, the young master is still a little aggrieved. The original Japanese author Etsuji Ogawa named him Liu Pleiades (mao) star, but for some reason the name changed to Liu Ang (ang) star in China. , Xiaodangjia means blue thin mushrooms. Although many people like this animation, it also has many flaws. Today, Brother Jun will analyze it for everyone.

The animation is set in the late Qing Dynasty and the period of Empress Dowager Cixi. As for why all the characters don’t have pigtails, I won’t comment. In the end, the emperor’s appetite is really surprising. He first ate Ah Fei, who represents the dark cooking world. The group of Manchus and Han people had a full meal of 100 dishes, and they were all full. After being served a bowl of porridge by the young master, they ate another 100 dishes from the young master's party. He was worthy of being an emperor, and his stomach was indeed abnormal.

In the end, the emperor finished eating and announced that the young master’s side had won. A Fei fainted and was revived by the young master using legendary kitchen utensils. He realized that he was controlled by the dark cooking world, but was punished by Admiral Li for following the young master. They went to look for the legendary kitchen utensils together. This is not the key. The key is that Admiral Li then said that the journey to find the legendary kitchen utensils was a hard and dangerous journey, which is why the punishment was so severe. The young master, Ren, explained Master (with a smile saying mmp, so this is the punishment for our victory. Although it is voluntary, I still feel a little unhappy).

The psychological activities of the animated characters after eating delicious food are also amazing. Stephen Chow’s "The God of Cookery" also has this idea. I don’t know who borrowed it from whom.

The ending of the animated version is that the little master and the others go looking for the legendary kitchen utensils together, so that the overall villain, the boss behind the dark cooking world, does not even appear. What a pitiful villain. The comic version is about the young master and a group of people fighting wits and courage to defeat the five bosses in the dark cooking world. The young master becomes a dragon chef, and then everyone sets out together to travel around the country and work hard for people's happiness.

However, I think the original author must have been influenced by Water Margin. Let me show you some of the nicknames of the bosses behind the scenes, Leopard Head Asia, Prodigal Yan Xian, Ruyun Long Kaiyou, tsk tsk, okay. They are descendants of Liangshan heroes, but I don’t know why they jumped out in the last years of the Qing Dynasty. Did they want to rebel against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Song Dynasty? I don’t know whether heaven and earth will agree.

Compared with the comics, the animation has made many changes. The ending of the animation actually copied the plot of the comic where the young master defeated the top French chef in Guangzhou, but this plot was deleted when adapting the animation. In any case, Little Master is still a very popular animation. As for how popular it is, just look at the Little Master noodles back then.
