26、gvconanvShinichi Here are our collectionsvHere we should declare:we are avid fans of Shinichis Why do we like Shinichi?vThe reason is,from our interpretation of the series,Shinichi,yes,is handsome,clever and cool,and this is enough to arouse the most.However,most would not notice he actually having
27、problems with socialization,even voluntary,that caused him to be.v1.Marginalized in the classroom,if not the society,fame not considered;2.He is actually desocialized,and,worse,he thinks theres no problem in that.vThis was an expected-yet unexpected-conclusion.Here I should put forward the evidence
28、why I said so,and explain why it is so.We hope the love between Shinichi and Ran will be foreverConclusionvIn this essay we have attempted to analyse Shinichi Kudos characters and his favours,by the method of“developmental analysis”-that is,analyse through his past events and the environment he was
29、grown up,at least the way I am perceived to have.As a deduction geek living alone,he actually was probably marginalized at school;and that was a gradual progress-he was not that at his earlier ages,and,actually,things that were set at that period-most importantly,Ran and soccer-became quite an exception for his case.vRegardless of the nationality and history,we wish Japanese who suffer form earthquake spend the obstacle at an early date.小组成员v0994076104 侯可心v0994076110 郭泽宁v0994076133 于洪洲
