It seems I am the sole review for Ghost Cat Anzu as of today, which is a shame. I saw it through a short theatrical window and was the only one in my theatre to enjoy what I found to be a pretty charming story of found-family. The animation for me was the strongest stand-point, first directed in live action and then animated over in rotoscrope. While it might be jank for some, I found it charming and lanky, the yokai / ghost characters being the stand-outs, whether it be the titular Anzu, who's lumber and laugh makes it impossible not to be charmed, orhis friend Frog who ribbits with glee as he digs holes and enjoys his hot springs. The movie moves at a pace that a cat would enjoy, going from small vignettes in the countryside about what happens when a 37 year old ghost cat drives a motorized scooter without a license, or a god of poverty who overstays his welcome by following everybody he deems to have misfortune. I think ultimately, that is what will make or break the movie for most viewers. Much of the central plot, following a girl who misses her mother and father, or learning to get along with someone you previously dimissed, is nothing you haven't seen before. There's are themes that have been explored better and more in depth in countless other anime, such as Anohana or Toradora! Following loneliness, loss, etc. The movie will go scene from scene of hijinks, living on the countryside, etc. until they reach Tokyo where the plot takes a turn for the more whimsical in the last act. Some viewerrs might actually get a lot out of the finale and how it deals with moving on, but for those bored with the first two acts it is quite the tonal shift. So while I believe Ghost Cat Anzu has a pace & plot might not be for everyone, I believe that with it's strong character design and animation it is definitely a worthy lazy Sunday watch.
