A high-school girl named Makoto acquires the power to travel back in time, and decides to use it for her own personal benefits. Little does she know that she is affecting the lives of others just as The Girl Who Leapt Through Time as she is her own. Rarely do I buy a film on DVD without having either read up about it or seen it first. For a dull anecdote, I walked through the store, saw it, and bought it, without knowing anything other than what was written on the back. When i got home, I didn't even start to watch it! But waited until after dinner to watch it, and to cut the already long story short, watching this movie was an experience! From the very first scenes I was grabbed. The artwork, I must say I adore, the scenery is beautiful. As for the storyline, sure, we've had time-travelling stories before, but there's never been one which after seeing it, made me want to watch it again Seriously, as soon as it was over, I watched it again! Cutting the even-longer story short again, I highly recommend this film, even those who are not lovers of anime might find themselves enjoying this film. Watching this movie was like an experience for me, and as odd as it may sound, I felt really warm inside after watching this. Looking for something to watch?

  • Wolf Children
    PRESENTS WOLF CHILDREN A MAMORU HOSODA FILM Running time: 117 minutes Certificate: TBC Opens at UK cinemas on 25th October Press Contacts Elle McAtamney – [email protected] For hi-res images/production notes and more, go to – www.fetch.fm To the children, a movie like a delightful, fun fairy tale… To the youth, to make raising children, which they have yet to experience, seem full of surprises and wonder… And to the parents, to let them reminisce about their children’s growth… I am striving to make an invigorating movie that satisfies the principles of entertainment. Mamoru Hosoda Director, screenwriter, author of original story INTRODUCTION The long-awaited new film by Director Mamoru Hosoda! Yet another movie that enthralls people of all generations!! In “The Girl Who Leapt Through Time” (2006), he depicted the radiance of youth in flashing moments of life. In “SUMMER WARS” (2009), he told a story about a miracle, of how the bond between people saved Earth’s crisis, and the film swept awards domestic and abroad. Mamoru Hosoda has become the most noted animation director in the world. Why do his works appeal to people of all generations? His stories are not about the extraordinary, and they are not about superheroes. Set in towns that could really exist, the main characters are surrounded by ordinary people and are troubled by slightly unique circumstances, which they struggle to overcome. Based on well-thought-out scenarios, these real-to-life stories are made into dynamic animation. That’s why the main characters seem so familiar to us and draw our sympathy, and we get excited watching how they fare.

  • Il Cinema D'animazione Di Shinkai Makoto
    Corso di Laurea magistrale in Relazioni Internazionali Comparate – International Relations [LM6-11] Tesi di Laurea Il cinema d'animazione di Shinkai Makoto Relatore Ch. Pro.ssa Maria Roberta Novielli Correlatore Ch. Prof. Davide Giurlando Laureando Valentina Favero Matricola 831964 Anno Accademico 2015 / 2016 2 ABSTRACT The aim of this dissertation is to analyze the cinema of Shinkai Makoto, an emerging artist in the animation's world, examining his concurrently works, the themes and his graphic technique. The first part of the thesis is developed from a focus on the director's life and background: Nitsu Makoto, aka Makoto Shinkai, was born in the city of Koumi (Nagano Prefecture) on February 9th, class 1973. After the graduation in literature at Tokyo Chuo University he was employed in a videogame company called Falcom, where he spent five years. Certainly, the different background and schooling he had undertaken, played a very important role in shaping this artist's style. Although often it has been hard deal with such a different work, mainly for his little technical experience, the success of his masterpieces spread soon all around the world. The increasingly complex and sophisticated work, the aesthetic style and the development of unique plots, the shaping of interesting characters: everything is match every time with a careful, almost maniacal, research of the best soundtrack, the most communicative dialogues full of poetic contents and literary references. Each of his works contains a special imprint of uniqueness and something "familiar" at the same time, which allows to identify places, themes and characters from the audience of all the world.

The three tales in this volume are so varied in their character that they may be said to present a very fair idea of their author's literary versatility. In "Count Hugo of Craenhove"—independently of the charming romance that invests the stoiy— there are dramatic descriptions of scenes during the plague that desolated Europe in the fourteenth century, which fully equal — if they do not surpass — in vividness, the tragio details of Boccacio and De Foe, and, in fact, realize its dreadful incidents with that palpable distinctness which we have only found in the celebrated " Representation of the Plague" preserved in the Museo d'Ltoria Naturale at Florence.

Title: The "characterization" of Japan : from merchandising to identity Issue Date: 2017-03-21 Chapter 2 Character Consumers and Consumption In his pioneering book Material Culture and Mass Consumption , anthropologist Daniel Miller looks at the relationship between people and things and argues that “the human subject cannot be considered outside the material world within which, and through which, it is constructed” (1987: 86). He suggests to investigate things in the specific contexts, since the diversity of commodities, the various origins of their production, the multiple interests invested in them during their different stages (such as design and promotion) and the distinctive social-cultural contexts of their use and consumption have made a complex material culture (Lee, 2000: 11). “What underlies this complexity is less an appeal for pluralism than a recognition of a pluralism which already confronts us,” continues Miller (1987: 175). He focuses on mass consumption and notes that the materiality of commodities matters. His argument is particularly relevant for character consumption. As I explained in Chapter 1, characters are commodified through the practice of character merchandising, by which the rights to characters are licensed to various producers and transformed into a great variety of character goods. In this sense, character merchandising may function as an effective mechanism that continually provides new forms and materials for consumption, which already displays a certain degree of familiarity. Since the 1970s characters have become an important feature of mainstream consumption, functioning as a social- cultural tie between private and public, connecting old and young, men and women, consumers with different interests and preferences.
