It's basically X-men, except mutants are replaced by spirits and Magneto is a good guy. Some people compare this to a Ghibli film but I think it's much closer to a Marvel film in style and plot. This is action-driven and takes an unambiguous moral stance to a tricky issue. It's good, but feels a little childish. The resolution is a bit cheesy, but that's what you get with a superhero flick.

The animation is clean and fluid, with nice backgrounds. The character style is cartoonish and unlike anime. But it looks really good. The music is fairly forgettable though.

They throw in a few jokes here and there, and it's funny. There are some endearing bits, but overall it doesn't evoke very deep emotions by movie standards. That's probably my biggest issue--it doesn't hit hard enough to be one of the greats.
