A wonderful animated film that dares to thread

A wonderful animated film that dares to thread into that middle-ground where it's too dark for kids, and "too light for adults". In other words it's a great flick if you're bored but don't want to watch something heavy, or if you're an adult who's fan of regular cartoon shows. The art is beautiful, rich with details and character which greatly lend to the atmosphere. The soundtrack is equally good, and the songs, while not the most memorable, are still a cut above most movies. The plot is entertaining enough to keep you interested throughout the movie, and it got me both sad and outright laughing. However, the mood of the story has a tendency to jump around, one minute a character can be the embodiment of evil, the other you're supposed to feel sorry for them. Sometimes you're supposed to read the characters deeply like real people, the next you're back to cartoon antics. It's a bit jarring, and will definitely deter some people. Personally I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, I love movies which thread the tone between dark and comedy. The story has a good moral, and because it doesn't shy away from showing death (and nudity) the moral actually comes across strongly instead of being hammered down like in most shows. The visuals are absolutely gorgeous and huge inspiration or an artist like me.

From grayscale bleakness at the start to vibrant

From grayscale bleakness at the start to vibrant bursts of color at the end, hope never fades. In a dreary town where suicide and despair were the norm, as the boy grew up, he was always smiling and used his joy to infect those around him.

Even if the message is good, it doesn't

Even if the message is good, it doesn't teach anything to the audience that search a motivation for life. Furthermore is frustrating that the movie makes funny jokes about the saddest problem in the modern society
