1 February 2024
Warning: Spoilers
The company Mappa, known for producing "Attack on Titan: The Final Season," has created its own animated movie called "Maboroshi." This sci-fi youth romance film resembles "Your Name." Despite a seemingly familiar time-space plot involving a steel factory explosion creating a fictional space, it introduces a new twist. The story unfolds in a perpetual world where everything stays the same, people don't age, and life continues. Occasionally glimpses of the real world appear, but if emotions disrupt the balance, spirits take individuals away until the space vanishes. It delves into philosophy, exploring understanding one's existence and deciding their future. The main plot follows the romantic journey of three young boys and girls within this eternal setting, offering a mix of sweetness and heartache in their love story.
