Beth says: “Japanese anime, based on a novel about a war that’s been wholly privatized by two companies who are at endless war, and the Kildren, genetically mutated humans who cannot age. Yuichi is a new pilot at one of the Rostock bases and quickly becomes an ace, all the while feeling like he’s met his fellow pilots and base leader before. the aerial animation was pretty amazing, and the implications of the plot as it unfolded was thought provoking and well developed – but it went on a good 20 minutes too long, and the use of repetition as both a theme and technique was overused and hamhanded. Definitely the first time I’ve seen a Japanese animated film where I felt the editing was lax. 3 cats
