      The end of fairy tales is assimilation

      "On the subway in winter, have you ever seen a little fat man with dark circles under his eyes? He buried his head in the fur collar, drooling from the corners of his mouth, as if he was about to fall over in the next second. Don't treat him yet. Roll his eyes, maybe he's a civet cat disguised as a...

      A General Impression of Japanese Anime

      I watched the 1994 Cantonese version (also known as "Heisei Tanuki").

      At first I thought it was the famous "My Neighbor Totoro", but it wasn't, but it is said to be the film with the most color. Also, the tanuki in Japan is the "raccoon dog" of what we call "one hill of raccoon dog".

      The final illusion made people rush to tears, but everything can never go back.

    Pom Poko quotes

    • Gonta: What good did it do? You idiots. You think that will stop the developers? Don't just frighten them. We need to hurt them. Inflict some serious pain!

      [He makes an emphatic gesture with his arm. He stops and winces, then doubles over in pain]

    • Tanuki: [singing and carrying Gonta] Moon, moon, moon shine bright, moon shine bright, so bright and long/ Shine, shine, shine on Gonta, pom poko pom pom, pom pom pom/

      OshoOroku: [singing] You showed the world what we can do, now

      Front crowd of Tanuki: [chanting] We have the greatness of Oroku, too!

      Tanuki: [singing] All our friends are cheering for you/ That's the truth, we adore you/ Hail to Gonta, he's our god!/ Pom poko, pom pom, pom pom pom!

      Newsreader: [as the Tanuki chant Gonta's name in the background] ... Nevertheless, a government spokesman stressed that the people of Tokyo are in such desperate need of living accomodations, that the new Tama development project will not be delayed, despite today's tragic accidents.

      [the tanuki stop celebrating and drop Gonta in surprise. They rush towards the TV, trampling Gonta in the process]

      Newsreader: I repeat...

      Narrator: It was, needless to say, an unfortunate accident. Gonta, the mastermind behind the dangerous attacks against the humans, now suffered multiple fractures and internal injuries, that would take nearly a year to heal.
