First animations of the French-Japanese anime film Ghost Cat Anzu


A new anime film is presented to fans. It is a French - Japanese co-production titled Ghost Cat Anzu of which we show you the first animations.


A preview of our colleagues Catsuka who present Ghost Cat Anzu (Anzu, chat-fantôme), co-produced by the Japanese Shin-Ei Animation (Doraemon, Crayon Shin-chan) and the Parisian Miyu Productions directed by Yoko Kuno and Nobuhiro Yamashita.

The protagonist of the story is Karin, 11 years old, a little girl who is abandoned by her father to her grandfather, a monk from a small town in the Japanese province. He asks Anzu, his jovial and helpful although quite capricious ghost cat, to watch over her. The meeting of their strong characters causes sparks, at least at the beginning.

A feature film made with two-dimensional animations produced in Japan, with the characters decorated and colored at the French studios, and the use of rotoscoping with which the live-action shots of the actors Mirai Moriyama (Anzu) and Noa Goto (Karin) were brought into animation. The same actors lend their voices to the characters in the Japanese version of the film.

In Japanese theaters July 19, here the first teaser:
