This is criminally underrated. It's such a shame that this doesn't have an English dub, but don't let that stop you from giving this a watch. Summer Days with Coo combines supernatural mythology elements into a beautiful slice of life, following a family on its journey of growth via their special magical pet.

Well-writtenKappa no Coo to Natsuyasumi (32)

What makes a great anime movie? Is it visuals, great storytelling, great and relatable characters, mind-bending themes and ideas or just the name of a famous director and studio. Whatever it is, we all love movies and anime. When I think about anime movies one of the first which comes to my mind is Summer Days with Coo and it is not because of complex storytelling, visuals or name of the director but it is because it is the only anime movie that genuinely made me cry and word “genuinely” is very important. Coo is not a movie of fakeness or pretending, it is a ...
