I really liked this one. A classic story of "David and Golieth"...or perhaps "Jack and the Beanstalk".

This one is ok. I feel like there were things you could only understand if your read Japanese or knew about the folktale.

Nice story. I felt bad for the demon. This short teaches us that you should never pick a fight with someone smaller than you.

It became creepy when he became normal size at the end, not romantic at all.

Overall pretty old anime but not bad. 5/10.

@valoon @Wlad-

There's a subtitled version here, but I don't know if the voice-over is legit.

That ogre sucked lmao. How you fail to catch the midget 40 times.
It’s time to ditch the text file.
