Yobi, The Five Tailed Fox

This movie was very nice; I would even go so far as to say it was beautiful, interesting, original, and had a good atmosphere. However, this movie still lacked something to make it the perfect movie. This is despite the fact the narrative was very good and quite straightforward, the animation was very appealing, and even the soundtrack contained well-chosen tunes. However, it still failed to fully immerse and appeal to me, as happened with other absolutely amazing things that I have awarded five stars to. Even though it was really just a close call, and I really liked the ending a lot, it is still only worth four stars, in my opinion, even though I thought it was very strong indeed. 8.4/10.

Yobi is cute and fun to watch, but I don't think it can compare to Spirited Away. The story is interesting, the characters imaginative, and the animation beautiful. Still, I could use a bit more fantasy and magic. Right from the start, I was yearning for the moments that leave me sitting with my mouth open. I also found the ending a little underwhelming. I’m giving it the fourth star for the pleasant music. (08/31/2011)
