Kakushigoto Movie

Compilation movie of the TV series which includes new scenes that were not adapted in the television anime, and different perspectives.

Kakushi Gotou is a somewhat popular manga artist whose works are known for inappropriate content. Because of this raunchiness, when his daughter Hime was born, he vowed to keep his profession hidden from her, believing that she will be disillusioned if she finds out.

This paranoia-induced belief leads Kakushi into hectic situations. Despite being a single father, he does his best and often resorts to extreme ends just to protect his secret, such as guising as a salaryman every day or holding emergency drills in case Hime somehow finds her way to his workplace.

Kakushigoto tells the story of a father and daughter living side by side, maintaining their peaceful existence as the father attempts to preserve the status quo. However, there is a saying: "there are no secrets that time cannot reveal." In time, Hime must learn the reality behind the things she took for granted as she grew up.

The story really made me sad, happy, all emotions in one. The uniqueness of the story itself lies in how the storyline was rewritten in the previous series, and allows the audience to understand the entire plot. The secrets in this film can be found out from where the house is located, why Hime's mother's past is not known, etc. but the most interesting of all, is how much love and affection a father has. I really liked this anime from the start because in terms of the way the characters are portrayed, they are cute and have a light impression and the story is ... enjoyable to watch for approximately 80 minutes. This will be one of the best films I have ever watched in 2023. Among all the anime films I have watched, this film in my opinion will be the best of the best.

SPOILERS AHEAD

Still definitely up there in most heartwarming animes, and only 12 episodes (well, the show). The movie doesn't add much, while there are a couple new scenes esp. with a lil bit more context on the mother, I'd say that it's not necessary to watch this.

But if you liked the show, and you'd be crazy not to, then this is the furthest thing from a waste of time.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Hime and Goto again. I missed all the characters and the humour. I cried, I'll admit it. Because as sweet as everything is, I don't think I'll ever get over how ... good of a parent Goto is to Hime and how he managed to be a great dad even after the loss of his wife. Nor do I think I'll ever get over the fact he spent his savings on continuing the search for her, even after they called it off.

Everything is tied up in a bow, still. But their relationship was perfectly captured in this and you can clearly see how much both Hime's parents love her. I don't think a 12 episode anime has ever been able to perfectly develop a relationship like this before.

In summary, I still can't get enough of them. Even though I would've loved more new scenes and content, the movie was still enjoyable and I wish I could go back to when I first started Kakushigoto. It's definitely an anime I'll recommend to people who love SoL, meaningful relationships and this kind of humour.

Will always be a comfort anime of mine.

As a compialtion movie, I thought this would be a great way to relive the anime once again. Glad to say that this is probably one of the best compilation movies I have ever seen.

The anime is a sum up of some of the best stories in the anime. It focused more on the relationship between Hime and Goto as the main point of the movie and was able to show their everyday life in a very good way. We see the extremes Goto goes to ( No pun intended) and how he has been trying to hide his job from Hime as well ... as showing some very wholesome moments depecting Hime's pure personality. It felt a bit too fast at times but was still enjoyable.

The Movie also added a few extra scenes at the end which did tie up some parts in the story that would have made the original TV series much better. The backstory of Goto was explained well and we finally get to see why Hime's mother was on that boat.

The ending of the movie is cute specially with the roles reversed where Hime is now the one with a secret to hide :D

Overall, I would give it a 9/10. A very enjoyable movie and I loved watching it although I would have loved to see the end of the whole searching for the mother part.
Would recommend the movie and the OG series.
