PREMISE/STORY/CHARACTERS A girl at the post office in Paldea is bored sorting mail and looks for more interesting work. She ends up hitching a ride with Dragonite and flying to Kanto with a little boy to deliver a letter to his father. Everything about the script is very simple but all the characters' motivations have more than enough weight to them to fill fifteen minutes and the story they create gives us great excuses to see cute Pokemon in action! VISUAL/SOUND This is the real point of Kairyuu to Yuubinyasan and is it ever great. The quality of the drawings is high and we geta lot of expressive movement of people and espeically Pokemon in a variety of settings. We see everything from Litwick melting wax in the post office to Mabosstiff taking a walk to schools of Lanturn illuminating the ocean to Latios and Latias in disguise. This is all presenting with a rapid, almost overwhelming pace that reinforces just how varied the Pokemon setting has become over the past thirty years. The human's voices are fine and the music does its job setting the tone of grand adventure but the highlight here is also the Pokemons' cries.

VERDICT: PASS
