What is love?

Carmen Solis

I choose an animation piece called “what is love?” This piece is really funny, entertaining, and ironic. I saw this animation while I was in my room. It caught my attention because of the cartoons and the title of the animation. After I saw the whole piece of work, I could not stop laughing because of the irony of love and hatred between two people. It has a background song which is really catchy and hilarious so combine with the effects of the cartoon, the piece of work becomes more amazing. I laugh at this because somehow I can relate to it. I know that when one is in love, one would do anything to get what they want. But in here, there is stalking and over exaggeration which it takes it to another different level. I have myself try to make someone like me or love me but I only have done silly things such as writing letters, watching them from far away, and trying to help them. I know that kind of is wrong in a way but I never did harm. But with this cartoon, I can see that sometimes those things can get a little too dramatic and funny.

First, the animation starts serious with dramatic actions depict in it. Then it gets sad because the guy is missing the love of his life which is a real life experience since one always wish to have the one by their side. Last, the guy would do anything to get the girl but she is not interested in him. In here, it is where all the actions and battles begin. The guy in the piano is epic because he can give tools to turn love into hate and hate into love.

I guess I find this ironic and at the same time hilarious because I can see how one is becoming crazy over love. It makes me think of all the little things I had done.
