REVIEW:
" Summer Days With Coo is a wonderfully layered anime that brings a pleasing mix of humour and sensitivity to cinema audiences. Children will love the playfulness of the kappa, and adults will find it to be romantically nostalgic, reminding us of carefree days when the summer meant riding your bike along waterways, pedaling so fast that you were certain to lift off the ground.
There is a serious undertone to the film; like the films of Miyazaki, such as Princess Mononoke, there's a strong sentiment of ecological consciousness, and the tragedy of modern development.
It's a slow film, with a long running time. I was comfortable and in a good mood, so the languidly crawling plot was a simple pleasure to watch. The kappa, named Coo, wants to go home, but in the 200 years since he's been fossilized, the swamp where he once lived has become a residential suburb of Tokyo.
It's tragic, and striking how an animated character can provoke such sorrowful sentiments. When Coo cries, it's as if the animalistic center of our being cries out, too. Sometimes, I wish the swamps and the rivers were still there.
Summer Days With Coo is an interesting look into Japanese culture, as well. I previously reviewed Bizan for the Japanese Film Festival - it was thrilling to see a dance festival on a far off island. Similarly, it's wonderful to see this element of Shinto folklore made into a popular film... "
