Damn near perfect movie in my opinion. Amazing use of plot twists & unreliable narrators/animation, amazing job of exploring the themes of fame at all costs, adapting to change, & public obsession. The twists & reveals were a big surprise on my first watch, but looking back at the scenes I realized there were hints that pointed to these reveals all along.
Being an animated movie I chose not to score the acting, but the voice acting for the dub version was great! And on top of this, the movie was animated beautifully as a whole. Really great use of the animation medium to tell a story. Scenes cut from one to another, unexpectedly at times, to emphasize the main characters' unstable mental state & make the viewer question what reality is vs isn't. Truly deserving of a 10/10.
