Neko no Ongaeshi

The Cat Returns

High school student Haru Yoshioka is bored with the monotony of life. One day, she saves Prince Lune of the Cat Kingdom from being run over by a truck. As a token of gratitude, the Cat King sends her "presents" and invites her to the Cat Kingdom to become Lune's wife. Haru's inability to properly communicate with the cats leads to the misunderstanding that she has accepted the proposal. As Haru ponders ways to escape the predicament, a mysterious voice instructs her to search for the Cat Bureau. However, not long after she finally arrives at the bureau, a horde of cats swarms in and forcibly takes her to the Cat Kingdom, along with a member of the Cat Bureau. Concerned for their safety, the owner of the Cat Bureau, Baron Humbert von Gikkingen, follows close behind. The more Haru immerses herself in the activities of the Cat Kingdom, the more cat-like she becomes. To her dismay, she soon learns that, unless she can find her true self, she may become a cat permanently. Haru's adventures in the world of cats lead her down a path to self-discovery, allowing her to return as a more confident person.

Bardzo przyjemne. Nie wiem co tu smętnego, powiedziałbym, że wręcz przeciwnie.
Bardzo fajny i przyjemny film animowany z małym morałem. Tak jak zawsze Studio Ghibli stworzyło bardzo ciekawą historię, choć w tym przypadku dość prostą i nie zbyt tragiczną - co jest zarówno plusem, jak i minusem. Lekki film - coś miłego na koniec dnia lub poranek.
Wspaniała opowieść. Praktycznie każdy znajdzie coś dla siebie. Studio GHIBLI jak zwykle pozytywnie zaskakuje. I mimo, że wcześniej pojawiają się komentarze, że zakończenie mogłoby być inne, to moim zdaniem to co jest, jest idealne, niewymuszone i pasuje do takiej krótkiej i przyjemnej historii jak ta. :)
mnie się bardzo podobało, takie lekkie i przyjemne, z dawką humoru, obejdzie się bez ryczenia ;]
polecam ;]
ktos skomentuje? warto obejzec?
szczesliwe zakonczenie? bo jak znowu mam ryczec, to sobie odpuszcze :P
