A dedicated riff off Disney and Fleischer, Mt. Kachikachi has nothing particularly interesting to write home about. The flimsy damsel in distress plot seems to have been lifted directly from the likes of Mickey mouse and the characters seem to remind you of a mixture of Disney's more popular works coupled with some looney toons characters. The short work makes frequent use of repeated frames contrasted by shifting backgrounds to pad the length, setting the stage for today's time constrained techniques employed by the animation industry in Japan to churn out product. On the whole it is ineffably enjoyable for what it is, but doesn'tprovoke any deeper meaning nor does it really provide an interesting perspective about Japan. It seems like a wholescale attempt at replicating the American product for Japanese audiences without any adaptation.
