Coo: Tooi Umi kara Kita Coo

This is a memorable work that I watched , who gave me both nostalgia and freshness because I couldn't see this for a while, but I can see it again
By the way, I learned about the existence of stun guns in this anime!.

Tōi Umi kara Kita Coo (遠い海から来たＣＯＯ, Tōi Umi kara Kita Kū, lit. "From a Distant Ocean Came Coo") is a Japanese novel by Tamio Kageyama. It won the Naoki Prize in 1988.
It was adapted into an anime film named Coo: Tōi Umi kara Kita Coo "Coo: From a Distant Ocean Came Coo"), released in 1993 by Toei Animation. The story revolves around ... a boy who finds a baby plesiosaur.

story : Yusuke Obata lives in Pago Pago, Fiji Islands with his father Testuro, who specializes in marine biology after
A storm hits the island, and after Yosuke goes to school, he finds a little strange dinosaur
He took him to his father and gave him a name, which is Ku. When Ko grew, he looked like one of the crystals that lived 65 million years ago
However, Ko becomes quickly the focus of French intelligence, in order not to let people know about him.
And to test nuclear bombs in a place that these animals lived from ancient times ..

Character :
Yusuke is 12-year-old boy.
Coo is a baby plesiosaur.
Tetsuo Obata is a marine biologist
Contseau is a dog.
Catherine "Cathy" Ono is a Japanese-Canadian woman who works for the Coast Guard and "Green Earth".
Col. Nolver is a celebrity among them.
Dr. Davard Duvall is a marine biologist.
Rooslean is a captain of the French navy.

Coo is a unique, but rather dull, fusion of the summer '93 box office hits, Jurassic Park & Free Willy.

The Good: The animation, it has very good lines, colors and flow.
The Bad: The story itself. A child finds a baby dinosaur. Then some army dudes want him. The End, inspired A LOT by Free Willy!!!

Should you watch it? I wouldn't suggest it, it is what it is and hasn't aged well, at all. It is an average, at best, animated movie and too long for what it offers, which is almost nothing interesting. Even the characters themselves are not that well written and rather generic.
