Puppets made by parents for their children will also be seen in TV dramas, and they are children's playmates when they were young. In different times, people have different aesthetics and different resources. In ancient times, there were not so many beautiful patterns, and the only materials that could be used to make dolls were wood and cloth, so the dolls made could only reach that level.
Nowadays, there are many children's toys, and the shapes of dolls are becoming more and more abundant. Japanese, American and Korean cartoon characters were introduced into China, and dolls became very common items in people's lives. To say the most famous doll company in the world, it must be Barbie.
Barbie is now over 60 years old and still very popular with children. Barbie is still updating Barbie's styles and toys regularly and has never been eliminated. I believe that many little girls' childhood dreams are to have an oversized Barbie doll.
When it comes to dolls, people first think of dolls that children play with. In fact, there are more than these definitions of dolls now. Many young people like comics and have the habit of collecting them by hand. Handmade cartoons and character dolls also belong to the category of dolls.
Just like "Slam Dunk Master" chased by many people after 1980s, although many years have passed, there are still people around to collect it, and the room is full of hands.
Therefore, dolls are not only children's toys, but also the spiritual needs of adults. For people who don't touch anime, there may be no way to understand the meaning of dolls, but for anime fans, these dolls and handmade things are their own spiritual food.
