Nice animation, better in the human modern world ant the interface; not so much in the beast world. Hosoda imposes his rythm, his codes of honor.

Será la más criticada (o la mas manipuladora) de Hosoda, pero al menos es encantadora, posee personajes interesantes y una bocanada de elementos nuevos para su historia; realmente es un aprovado.

20 Favorite Movies From 2016 (20 movies items)

" "Grasp the sword in your heart!" Another movie that get to me emotionally, there's a lot of reasons for you to cry in this beautiful anime. But also there are some fun and well done fight scenes, fantastic beasts and great characters. It's kinda anime version of The Karate Kid, but also much more than that."
