Really comes off as more spectacle than substance. The characters are pretty flat, things happen simply because the plot needs them to, Lu comes off more as unsettlingly quirky than adorable quirky...
The visuals are pretty nice, but really don't compare to many other anime movies like it (with the most obvious choice being Miyazaki). Overall the absurdity of it is enough to make me suggest watching it just to laugh at it, but it's not a movie I'd consider to be good by any means.
