Before seeing the movie, I recommend that you watch one episode of Graveyard Kitaro and one episode of the sixth in the series, which was recommended to watch beforehand on twitter. I think it makes the movie more interesting and more moving. I actually went to the theater the day before to see those two episodes only.

・I think that the movie is more enjoyable if you like Kitaro, even if you are quite old due to the complete respect to the original work.
・The visuals of Kitaro's father and Mizuki are good, and the movie has a lot of female audience because of that.
・The movie is a buddy movie of Kitaro's father and Mizuki.
・There are many smoking scenes, so they may be cut or changed if the movie is released or distributed outside of Japan.
・Good action and good drawings.
・Good horror movie.
・Friendship between fathers and a buddy movie.
・Pure love
・Incest
・Rural customs and mysterious rituals
・The story or mystery part reminds me of the movie "「犬神家の一族」The Inugami Clan," written by Seishi Yokomizo and directed by Kon Ichikawa.
・The story and mystery part is reminiscent of the movie "The Inugami Clan" by Kon Ichikawa, written by Masafumi Yokomizo.
・The voice cast is too gorgeous, and there is no one who is not good.
・The karma of human beings simmering in the cauldron of hell (without salvation).
・Many people are crying before and after the ending scene.
・Kitaro, Medama Oyaji, and Neko Musume don't appear in the movie very often, so I don't recommend this movie to those who want to see them as the main characters.
・It is a work for adults, and some people who went to see it with their children left the theater halfway through.
・Some people think it is grotesque, but the grotesqueness is about the same level as Demon Slayer, or even a little higher.

I think people who like Kitaro series, Fate series, Type-Moon related works, Kyogokudo series such as Jutsu Kaisen, Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, Blue Seed, Mouryou no Hako, etc. will like this work, or at least get hooked on it.

As for my opinion, I'd rather read other people who went to see it, so I may turn it off.
