Synopsis

A tale of otherworldly beauty and celestial secrets unfolds in this new take on Japan’s oldest folktale. Inspired by The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, the film reimagines Japan’s oldest folktale with a modern touch by integrating music, fantasy, and contemporary animation. Set in the virtual realm of Tsukuyomi, the story unfolds as a live performance marrying original music with Yamashita’s signature style of polished visuals, emotive pacing, and dynamic 3D camerawork to boldly transform this classic tale for a new generation.

Keep Smiling For Me Kaguya

<center>__[CONTAINS SPOILERS] __ First of all, I want to thank everyone who took the time and effort to work on this film.

A Film Dragged Down By Its Extravagance

~~~Cosmic Princess Kaguya is a weird film. It is a digital-first Netflix Original anime film that is also Yamashita Shingo's debut as a director. At the same time, it could be absolutely none of those, and it would make zero difference on the film. In some cases, it might even make it better. I was…

Tradition Reimagined Through Music

~~~A Review of Cosmic Princess Kaguya!~~~ It is genuinely difficult to take a classic folktale, one that has been told countless times in many different forms/interpretations and turn it into something I never expected the moment I pressed play on this film. To elevate something so deeply rooted in…

I think this is the best anime movie I have ever watched.

#~~~ __Animation__~~~ ~~~The thing that stands out immediately is the animation. It’s genuinely gorgeous. The colors, lighting, especially in the digital world scenes. The fight scenes and performances especially go crazy, the staging of concerts and VR battles is super theatrical and expressive. It…

My First Review: A Beautiful Story by Studio Colorido

This is actually my first review so yeah I'm still learning XD (anything is possible in the big 2026) I’ve been a huge fan of Studio Colorido for a while now. I absolutely loved __A Whisker Away__ and __Drifting Home__, even though __My Oni Girl__ didn’t really click for me, I was so hyped when I h…

A Romance Across Time, A Feast for the Eyes and Hearts

Cosmic Princess Kaguya! is undoubtedly the most stunning animated masterpiece of 2026.

Uma incrível releitura cyberpunk de Kaguya-hime que usa o transumanismo para hackear e reescrever um destino trágico.

Kaguya: A Princesa Espacial (Chō Kaguya-hime!), dirigido pelo visionário Shingo Yamashita e produzido através de uma colaboração brilhante entre o Studio Colorido e o Studio Chromato, destaca-se como uma das produções de ficção científica mais inovadoras, ousadas e esteticamente deslumbrantes dos úl…

Classic Folklore, Modern Presentation, and a Visual Feast

Extremely fun! I had low expectations for this one. I love Studio Colorido's work. But the concept here struck me as odd. Cute idol girls aping off of the classic story of Princess Kaguya with an emphasis on the idol performances? I've certainly heard of weirder things, but what an odd concept. It…

TheAnimeBingeWatcherTheAnimeBingeWatcher85/100

Spectacular, self-indulgent, riveting, overstuffed, and possibly one of the greatest things I've ever seen.

I consider Shingo Yamashita a representative of everything great about this era of anime. While he's been working in the industry for years, it wasn't until the late 2010s that he sprung into prominence at the forefront of the "web-gen" anime movement, an influx of internet-based indie animators usi…

A sort of Hadestown take on the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, and a very good film.

This is a very loose retelling of the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter, a story adapted and referenced countless times in anime, films, and video games. Princess Kaguya comes to Earth, experiences beauty and love there, then is taken away by the moon people. In this version, she arrives in 2030 Japan and…

Cosmic, stylish, and full of energy. A story that captivates the beauty of music and art.

If you were hyped for this anime, you’ve probably heard some of its songs on the official Cosmic Princess Kaguya Youtube channel. Well, I was one of them who happened to stumble across their channel. Being a fan of music-themed anime, I knew I had to give it a try and listen to some of their uploade…

I think it's an 8.5/10. The story and the choreography are not all bad, but they have their issues.

Finished watching it. I think it's a great movie! Here's my thoughts __(slight spoiler warning)__: I'll first start by talking about the positive aspects of Chou Kaguya Hime's story, which is the fact that the characters are connected with both the real world and the virtual world. I like the fact…

You ever have the best pizza in your life, but then you eat too much of that pizza and feel really sick afterwards? This movie is like that. Well anyway, it starts off very sweet. As you see from the trailer, the character design, animation, colors, and music are stellar. What is really really good…
