Monday Morning Maybeearly ratingWhy it’s a Monday Morning Maybe
With a box office flop and almost no 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
- One for anyone who likes a cape with their popcorn and manga readers. Comic-book roots, so expect big stakes and bigger set pieces. Same wavelength as Nimona or My Little Pony: A New Generation. Made in the anime tradition: bold, emotional and willing to go dark.
- The mood
- Light and funny, feel-good.
- The pace
- Fast-moving, at 1 hr 15 min. Done before bedtime.
- 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 can't get past animation (your loss).
On his way to visit the Queen of the Garden of Light, the Sage of the Garden of Clouds accidentally drops the egg of the Houhou. The egg lands in the Garden of Rainbows, where it is found by Hikari, attracting the attention of a powerful pair of servants of the Dark Lord.
