“This story has never ended”
After running into his childhood crush Myon, meeting her family and the Yakuza thugs who come knocking, hapless layabout Nishi soon bids his vague dreams of love and manga illustrating farewell when a bullet enters his butt and exits his skull. Too humiliated to call it quits, Nishi is granted a second go at his situation by the almighty Kami-sama. From here on out anything is possible.
“Outstanding... full of pictorial allure”
One of the most inventive and creative animated films ever made, Masaaki Yuasa’s Mind Game is a kaleidoscopic visual feast featuring more disparate art styles than you can count. Adapted from the manga by Robin Nishi, this film is like a shot of adrenaline; a vital existential wakeup call to one’s own free will. When everything is possible, Yuasa takes you by the collar to do and see everything – and what an invigorating and unforgettable ride it is.
