And yes, The Boy and the Beast is worth one watch, although whether you'd want to buy the blu-ray or not really depends on how much you can accept that whole "something for everyone" mentality. Still, his stuff is better than.well let's face it.any anime airing right now, so I could not go to see his film fast enough when it came out in theatres just to ignore the sixteen cartoons I'm going to finish in a few weeks for a moment. How he spreads the subject matter of his stories too thin to leave more than a middling impact.
Whilst the character animation being distractingly un-detailed compared to the rest of the animation is a bit of a sticking point in his films, my main problem with him are
Mr children boy and the beast movie#
Just like Disney has never been able to produce a movie that my pre-college self would have loved but my post-college self just finds alright, I'm not too keen on rewatching any of Hosada's films these days whether or not I think they're good. Mamoru Hosada is basically to Japanese animation what Disney is to Western animation: one of the better players in the field, but far from the best the medium has to offer. If an English dub comes out I really suggest watching the Japanese version (subbed) because I have a feeling that the English version will not be able to convey the same emotions that the original did. Go watch this movie, I watched it the 4th day it came out and I don't regret it. Maybe it is just because I haven't seen any good anime movies since I was like 10, but this movie is really going to stay with me. I can't explain why, but I feel really excited after watching it and it was probably my favorite anime movie. Since it was directed by the same person the stories are completely different, but have similar feelings attached to them. If you liked Wolf Children, you will probably like this as well. Both Kyuuta and Kumatetsu gave up their lonely lives to accommodate each other. The student-teacher relationship between Kyuuta and Kumatetsu (always arguing) seems a bit stereotypical, but somehow it was unique as they were able to compete with one another to benefit from each other. But even when Kyuuta cheers for Kumatetsu in the beginning I teared up. I have never ever cried from a character's actions. Children, which fit quite well with the story. When I was in the theatre while watching this, the explosions and stuff were kind of loud, but that just intensified the experience. I don't know of an anime with "bad sound" so I always give a 10 in this section. Overall, it wasn't an outstanding story but definitely a good one.īesides the people, the background art was really realistic like it was in Wolf Children. Nevertheless, I was touched by the actions of the characters towards the end. In addition, the final conflict/climax was really predictable, making it a bit dull. One main thing I didn't like, however, was the fact that when Kyuuta goes to the human realm, the bakemono realm is totally The growth of the characters was probably the best I have seen in an animated movie you feel happy when the characters are happy. I really didn't think the story was that great, but it was good enough to be a successful movie. (Update: Idk why I teared up so much tbh, could just be a sign of my maturity) I did however, cry when watching Bakemono no Ko (about 4 times). So, I have never cried from anime or any movie.
Perhaps there has always been less of a difference between them, a boy and a beast, than either of the two ever realized. As the years pass by, it starts to become apparent that the two are helping each other in more ways than they had originally thought. Kumatetsu searches for recognition Ren, now known as Kyuuta, searches for the home he never had. While the two share different goals, they agree to help each other in order to reach them. While nearly unmatched in combat, Kumatetsu's chilly persona leaves him with no disciples to teach and no way to prove he is worthy of becoming the Lord's successor. Through the twists and turns of the alleys, Ren stumbles into the intimidating Kumatetsu, who leads him to the beast realm of Shibuten.įor Kumatetsu, the boy represents a chance for him to become a candidate to replace the Lord of the realm once he retires. With no parents, no real family, and no place to go, Ren escapes into the confusing streets and alleyways of Shibuya. For nine-year-old Ren, the last person who treated him with any form of kindness has been killed and he is shunned by what is left of his family. Two souls, living very different lives, wander alone and isolated in their respective worlds.
