I thought it was fairly good. The kid's obsession with Tula I'll never understand.

It's also freely available for watching on Hulu.

I liked it ok. I loved the art work and the "opening" part is SO AWESOME!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xGoR23Wouk

It felt pretty short, I think it could have been a lot better if it was longer. It wasn't the best I've ever seen but the art and the opening make it worth watching I thought. :)

Well, it sure LOOKS pretty, but on the whole I found it to be a pretty inferior copy of Princess Mononoke. The whole thing's built around a Man vs. Nature conflict, but said conflict never seems to follow any internal logic. Stuff just kinda happens, and then it's over.

It did feel an awful lot like Princess Monocle or Nausica even...for a hope to be animator I enjoyed it on artistic merits but not the story. It felt like they stoled it/ changed it a little.

It's for the movie Origins: Spirits of the Past. It's the song that plays during the opening credits.

The visuals are beautiful~

But the story is nonsensical and kind of boring.

THE SPOILER IS [SPOILER]they turn into a tree.[/SPOILER]

Yeah it's pretty and it's worth watching at least once or twice but it's nothing spectacular...Good but that's about it.
