DISNEY - POM POKO(1994)


This is far from classic Studio Ghibli! The
great Miyazaki is not involved with this at
all and it shows! It's probably a cute show
for children but not so much for adults! C

A review from Amazon:

This a very different, more dynamic film than a lot
of other Ghibli works. Although it bears some thematic
resemblance to "Mononoke" and "Naussica" in its nature
vs. man plot, it plays out much differently through its
use of humorous protagonists. Though on the surface
the tanuki may look like cuddly teddy bears, they are
fierce in their war with the humans. The animation of
the transformation scenes and the action shots make
this a very appealing film and the characterization is
first rate (especially the three old masters)!

It may be helpful for non-japanese audiences to do
a little reading on japanese folklore. I caught a lot of
the references but much of it went over my head. - freakus
