Tsukiji Wonderland is a documentary that will amaze you with the awesomeness of all the people working at this fish market. I had seen some documentaries about Tsukiji on TV before, but they focused on the fish auction. Tsukiji Wonderland, on the other hand, shows you the complete process including before and after the auction – from the arrival of the fish at the market until the fish being served at restaurants as sushi. The areas where visitors are not permitted are also filmed, so it is really interesting to watch.
The film centers on the intermediate wholesalers at the market. It shows their incredible knowledge about fish and how significant they are in delivering the best fish to the customers which include top-notch sushi restaurants. I have just learned from this film that fish taste different based on the season and even how they got caught! Their knowledge about fish is just amazing.

"Sekai kara neko ga kietanara" is based on a popular novel of the same name and centers around a young postman (played by Sato Takeru) who learns that he has a terminal illness and is soon going to die. Then, a devil appears and offers to extend his life on the condition that one thing the devil picks will disappear from the world in exchange for him living one day longer.
Things which seems not essential to life turn out to be more crucial than expected, as they affect the relationship he has with his ex-girlfriend, friend and family
As the story evolves, it reminds me to think about what is actually essential to life. Existence or essence?
The story is meaningful, and Takeru is a great cast in a great film. He perfectly delivered the role with his talents. The film is also shot so beautifully that I had to add Hakodate, the filming location, to my list of must-visit cities in Japan.

I almost gave this film a pass because its trailer looked uninviting. I'm glad I did see it. To me, this is the best Pixar film since Wall-E!
Inside Out depicts the complexity of human emotions in the simplest way ever - through the five characters that represent core emotions; Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger. It shows the significance of all of them. One would not forever live with only Joy, and Sadness could sometimes be meaningful to life. Fear, Disgust and Anger are also basic emotions that can save us from danger or unwanted situations.
Apart from emotions, Inside Out shows how our memories are stored and recalled. The part of Riley's memories with her childhood friend, Bing Bong, had me crying hard because it reminded me of my childhood friends too.
There are many good things the audience can get from viewing this film. They may understand their emotions better. Parents and kids may communicate more effectively once they have seen this film. In any case, a sure thing this film has contributed is a masterpiece to the animation world.
