This optimism runs through the whole film. In the actions to prevent the development time and time again, the civet cats did not want to kill humans, but drove them away, turned into ghosts and gods to scare humans to achieve their goals, and then the plan failed, they did not because of the plan It is sad and sad to fail, but to feel lost for being falsely claimed for one's own honor, which makes people laugh. The strength of the civet cats is not enough to fight against humans. They cry, helpless, and powerless, shouting that they hope that humans will return their mountains and their homes. They have been desperate and finally have the courage to speak their minds to humans. However, the ending is regrettable. Some of the civet cats left the forest and chose to commit suicide, hoping that on the day of suicide, under the bright moon, Buddha would take them to heaven. The remaining tanukis gave up their fight, and used their last strength to cast illusions to make the city return to its former green grass and lush forests. Humans still continue to develop, leaving only a part of the trees for the civet cats to live. The civet cats have less living space. The civet cats that will transform become human and integrate into human life. Some cannot integrate into human life and return to the forest again. . And those who can't be transformed, some are raised by people, some are foraging around, and some continue to live on another hill. Each civet cat chooses its own way of survival.
The image of the civet cat in the film is kind, and it highlights the image of human ignorance, selfishness, and cowardice. It expresses a heavy theme from the demands of the animal itself. When watching it, it slowly frowns from joy to, especially at the end, it is so bright. , but not happy. This is an educational film.
