Crayon Shin-chan Movie 09: Arashi wo Yobu Mouretsu! Otona Teikoku no Gyakushuu

There is no greater love in this world than the love of your family.

I'm not exactly going to review this anime. Let me just say two things, and I'll list out some quotes from the movie, and I'll be done.

First, this movie made me realize that crayon shin-chan isn't just for kids.

Second, some animes in the world may have mediocre story, mediocre art, mediocre sound, but may deserve no less than a 10/10.

These are quotes by Nohara Hiroshi.

... "Those who believe they have gotten big have no right to be big."

"The antonym for justice isn't evil, but another justice."

"My life isn't not interesting! I almost want to share the happiness of having a family!"

"Like I'd have any regrets on a world without Shinnosuke!"

"We aren't heroes who save the world. We are fathers who want future for their children."

"I'm never letting you go again, Shiro, Shinnosuke. Never again."

"It isn't life if it goes as planned."

"There are no parents who tell their kids to die!"

"There are people who can work for me, but there are no replacements for father."

"No matter what happens to my body, I protect my family!"

"Idiot! It's admonishing, not educating! There is no point if you don't do it yourself!"

May have some spoilers.

This movie is a masterpiece, the reason to that is because the movie not only is enjoyable for children but is also for grown adults. The fact that it can grab a variety of different range of aged audience is what really makes this movie a fine work of art.

When I first watched this movie as a kid, I didn't realize how deep the story was and what it was trying to tell the audience. It was enjoyable, a good amount of action, the same characters with their same personality portraying their personalities in order to make everything return back to normal ... again in the end.

However, when I watched this movie again out of nostalgia after I became an adult, it was enough for me to shed tears. The reason is because this movie did incredibly well in trying to make their audience reminisce the past of when they were the children that used to watch this movie, so pure and young, not knowing what the actual meaning of this movie was.

I didn't realize why my mom started to sniffle when she watched this with me by my side.

Sometimes when I watch this movie, it makes me want to go back into the past so much. But knowing that I can't is what makes this movie even more great, because even if the culture is different since it is obviously made in Japan, it is still enough to make us think about why we were so happy as children.

This movie is the exact definition of "There may be people who haven't watched this film, but there aren't those who haven't watched this film only once."

Most of the shin-chan movies aren't only for children, and if anything a lot of them are probably not good for children to watch. That is why it's fascinating, because a totally youngling-targeted show can creep up onto people like us who are tired of adulthood, seeking for a way to flee from the reality that we live in, wanting to go back to when we were all young without any worries,

Shinnosuke is still the same ol' perverted kid in this movie.

The story begins of nice, Shinnosuke and his family star in this action movie where his Dad plays a parody superhero. (Parody of Ultraman.). After this it just continues normally, everyone we basically know from the normal series is at the World Fair's 20th Century Museum, where all the parents try to relieve they're childhood. As they are about to enter the 21st century, a certain evildoer hypnotizes adults via tv, thr...ough a 20th Century Museum commercial, this turns the adults in childs, not psysically, but mentally.

This shows that Shinnosuke can be very mature, and ... yet.. not.
So the story's pretty plain, but the way it is shown in this movie it's just great.

They still use the same weird art style, which is just needed in Crayon Shin-Chan series/movies, specials and such. So I'll give it a good score. The sounds okay too.

The characters, of course, Shinnosuke is still the same ol' perverted kid, which I said before. Furthermore he still has those crazy moods and actions. Shinnosuke's friend group is just as crazy as normally, especially when they get drunk on Oolong Tea. You can see they're mature side which you don't see very often, yet they can act as baby's the next moment.

If you're ready for a bit extraordinary artstyle, alot of humor and a funny adventure. This movie is where you need to be. I recommend that you'd watch (a bit) of the series, "Crayon Shin-Chan", just so you get to know the characters and minor characters a bit. But it's highly enjoyable, even to watch it several times.
