Chou Kaguya-hime!
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.

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

Read full review on AniList →~~~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.

Read full review on AniList →~~~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…

Read full review on AniList →Cosmic Princess Kaguya! is undoubtedly the most stunning animated masterpiece of 2026.

Read full review on AniList →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…

Read full review on AniList →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…

Read full review on AniList →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…

I like the fact…
