Kids Return (1996)
8/10
Great music. Great story.

Joe Hisaishi has proved himself again to be the greatest male Japanese anime song composer alive. The female goddess is, of course Yoko Kanno. Both geniuses have composed many many original scores for many famous animation TV series and movies.

The music in Kids Return is perfect. If I am judging musical aspect of the film, it will be a 9/10.

One thing puzzled me was.. didn't Shinj died in the end? We saw the wreaked white car being towed away. So how did he survive from the jealous power hungry 'No. 2'? The film didn't explain properly his close shave with death.

Mao points: 8/10
