Is it possible to get this entry re-examined? It's a very interesting movie and being on MAL would make it easier to give it more exposure. I watched it because someone linked its MAL entry, and it piqued my curiosity, and now i see it was removed..

The reason given is "Not an animation" (link: https://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=140439&show=400#msg62559320), however i'd say it's stylistically similar to Trigger's Inferno Cop and Ninja Slayer, as well as other low budget or experimental works like the Yami Shibai series which are still in the database

From the PV, it seems like it's real-life "puppeteering", not an actial animation, unlike the Inferno Cop. Similar to Thunderbolt Fantasy, just with paper cutouts instead of proper puppets. Had it been stop-motion, it would be added.
You all need to watch Nami.
