The Subversion.Īs with how these stories go, the ones who were left behind are sent to find (and possibly eliminate) the one who found freedom. High school assassin and resident super genius Koo Ja Yoon. In The Witch’s case, the perfect subject being Ja Yoon. Twelve being the only successful subject of the experiment who suffered no side effects. Since we’re talking about parallel’s here, I would like to remind you all that the masterpiece Zankyou no Terror ( Terror in Resonance) shares the same plot. Many are killed, but one makes it through the forest and successfully walks into a new life. One day however, an inevitable mutiny erupts and the children try to escape. They are genetically engineered to use a high percentage of their brains, as in the American film Limitless. The children at the facility are given numbers instead of names. Or, repeatedly ignore them due to ignorance or wistfully thinking its “just tv”. It is nothing new in media by a long shot, and despite the repeated repetition possibly being a ‘lesser magic’ cast in the form of consented disclosure, many people don’t seem to recognize the patterns. Isabella even births one of her child prisoners, Ray. In The Promised Neverland, ‘Mama’ Isabella serves as the children’s handler to nurture them and subdue them into loyalty until the time comes to sell them. If you’ve seen The Promised Neverland anime, you should be familiar with this concept.

We can write off in his next breath, the same man sticking up for Ja Yoon driving without a license to the local sheriff – Myung Hee’s father. We can write off his father nonchalantly asking (to paraphrase) ‘what spell has that girl cast upon you?’ ![]() Myung Hee steals the attention from Ja Yoon in each scene they are in together, and I don’t think the young witch would have it any other way.īecause of this fact, we can almost write off the farming supply owner’s son hypnotically giving Ja Yoon everything she wants without paying. ![]() From The Witch Part 1 The Subversion Korean film.
