Neko (2017) is an interesting mix of adventure and fantasy with a unique animation style that stands out in the genre. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it really captures that whimsical yet gritty atmosphere of a city filled with challenges and quirky characters. The titular hero, Neko, is painted in broad strokes, embodying that classic underdog spirit, which resonates throughout the film. While the voice performances are solid, they add a layer of charm, though I felt some moments lacked depth. The practical effects used in the action sequences give it a certain edge, making the battles feel more grounded amidst the fantastical elements. Overall, it’s a quirky little gem worth discussing among collectors.
