With a box office flop and little lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Best for anyone nostalgic for their awkward years and anyone curious about anime. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. Shelve it next to Memories. It's anime, with all the big emotions and big action that comes with it.
- The mood
- Light and funny, romantic.
- The pace
- Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 33 min.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Skip it if you like your stories firmly grounded in the real world.
The third film finds Ataru transformed into a pink hippopotamus, which sends Lum chasing after the wicked magician responsible, with catastrophic results. With Lum gone, her friends decide that there is no reason to remain, and so Tomobiki slowly returns to normal. The highlight of the film is a high speed chase scene with an angry Lum flying after the mysterious Ruu through the city at night and into a hall of mirrors (and illusion ). Ataru's true feelings for Lum are probably more obvious in this film than any of the others.
