I'll never get tired of watching the children's transformations.ĭirector: Satoshi Kon - Pop idol Mima quits her group in order to pursue an acting career. It doesn't hurt that it has some of the cutest scenes that have ever been animated. The emotion in this film is just on a different level than most others.
