The interesting aspect of the film is that it utilizes stereoscopic presentation in order to achieve a 3D effect, I wasnt able to test that version due to the lack of equipment so I went with the 2D version instead.
Now I'm sure everyone is familiar with the classic and acclaimed picture book series, the film presents 5 stories 3 of which are directly associated with the picture book series and the characters, the 2 others I assume focus more on highlighting the 3D presentation to the audience with their visual.
Key element in the film is that it is spearheaded solely by the anime song legend Mitsuko Horie when it comes to the musical performance, narration and the vocal presentation of the visual elements. Her vocal prowess and professionalism I'd say elevates this film in the audiovisual experience to a new level entirely and is a essential part of the experience of the film.
The song performance itself is a famous song for youth "Omocha no Chachacha" The song I'd say provides resonance to the themes and youthful approach presented with the tone of the story and the elements and their vocal portrayal.
The art in the film is simplistic but not overly simple and puts the emphasis on setting up a youthful atmosphere for the visual presentation. The professionalism of the vocal presentation of Mitsuko Horie I'd say takes into account this youthfulness found in the visual which I'd say elevates the combined experience into a higher realm.
Overall this film is a must watch for fans of Mitsuko Horie as her strong presence essentially carries the film and presents a youthful presentation of the classic well known picture book seriees. The stereoscopic 3D aspect is another factor that might be interesting aspect as far as the overall execution goes, though like I mentioned eearlier my expereince was limited to the 2D presentation so I can't provide a full analysis for the 3D experience by itself.
