If you loved Cutie Honey, try Daicon Film's Return of Ultraman
Eine Brücke zwischen einem Film, den du schon gesehen hast, und einem, den kaum jemand kennt. Daicon Film's Return of Ultraman hat ungefähr 5.6× Stimmen weniger als Cutie Honey — ein tieferer Cut, keine Mainstream-Empfehlung. Das teilen sie, und was der zweite macht, was der erste nicht macht.
Was sie teilen
Both films are directed by Hideaki Anno, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Action territory. If that's the register that drew you to Cutie Honey, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Daicon Film's Return of Ultraman is
You're a kid with a camera, staging an Ultraman battle in miniature. But the monster keeps growing, a city-stomping threat. The stakes flip when Ultraman can't win alone. Anno's early work already bears traces of the anime legend he'd become. The film leaves you with a sense of childlike wonder.
