This short celebrating Pokémon Day is truly a testament to the emotional range Pokémon stories can have, and to just how incredible Pokémon is as a franchise. Pulling a stacked but unexpected cast of being animated by CoMix Wave Films (Your Name, Weathering With You) and with music by Evan Call (Violet Evergarden, Frieren) x suis from Yorushika (Frieren, BokuYaba), this short does not pull punches when it comes to hitting an emotional story beat within its short runtime.

Evan Call feels right at home again writing the music for another series about the power of letters in expressing feelings to others, and the short ...

If you're a Pokémon fan, "Dragonite and the Postman" is a must-watch. Initially, I thought it was a feature-length film, but it was a short film that, makes me sad😭.But, Despite its running time only (15:00 min.) it packs emotional depth into its brief runtime.

The voice actors bring life to the characters, and the original soundtrack is superb. However, the inclusion of legendary Pokémon like Kyogre and Lugia felt a ...

PREMISE/STORY/CHARACTERS

A girl at the post office in Paldea is bored sorting mail and looks for more interesting work. She ends up hitching a ride with Dragonite and flying to Kanto with a little boy to deliver a letter to his father. Everything about the script is very simple but all the characters' motivations have more than enough weight to them to fill fifteen minutes and the story they create gives us great excuses to see cute Pokemon in action!

VISUAL/SOUND

This is the real point of Kairyuu to Yuubinyasan and is it ever great. The quality of the drawings is high and we get ...
