Bâan: The Boundary of Adulthood aka Ratatouille but worse__
Well...this was alright...Kevin was good on OST's (7-7,5 maybe even 8 on a good day),the plot was also alright (Need more time to develop all plot/character development aspects of the Bâan to make them shine even more aka wtf is these species,what is this 3D Dragon/Lizard thing,wtf is egg and why other monsters attack it,why is Daichi now lives with Girl Mc (fucking Rinrada Ratchamanee that was never said in the movie) or is it because her hitting Daichi with egg connects them/or just the Dragon?,why Daichi and his mother relationship are in such state (One kitchen flashback in not enough), what was his job and why he decided to quit,was he working with his mum/or both parents and what was the atmosphere there,wtf is level 2 threat (this obviously gonna open a lot of questions about 2 world and how it works,how can you get there,what technology did they use in "our" world to get there,how come people restrict magic in their world if they can use those human fairy looking creatures and maybe exploit them for resources and etc (I know this topic would lend movie into society/bullying problems and many others and Gigguk og idea is more about finding your place in the world and don't go into your parents footsteps,but its Him that chose those things to represent his idea and its his fault to not showcase how they work in those worlds even though I know that making your own anime and stuff isn't that cheap at all) and also why did Female mc left her home,was it because her parents died or because Daichi thought it would be the same for her as it was for him (then why it wasn't showed to us and what led to it,since its kinda fucking important to the whole movie and potentially make Daichi manipulate this poor girl mind into thinking that she also need to find her place or maybe a reason to live or was she a princess(cause she had a crown or something like that and now she needs to throw away her burden with crown princess position) why is he her adopted father now,when there was a village that could take care of her)
TLDR if this was longer maybe you could argue that this is a good short-film,for now its just okay-ish 18 min episode with a lot of unanswered world building questions/character skipped development about finding your place in the world with polished animations and good character designs and good,maybe even great music.(Watched in Japanes,Japan Va's are standard here,good but nothing spectacular to play here since there is not drama or deep enough plot/time to develop heath warming feelings with characters that you don't care enough)
Would I recommend this to others? ngl,nah.Its cool to sea another Youtuber make his dream come true and make his own anime,but with substance so little I would rather wait another 5 years so this movie would be at least 1 hour long.
5,5/10 (NGL Just watch Ratatouille instead)
