About This Movie
The Death of Nekojiru is a haunting documentary that dives deep into the complex life of manga artist Chiyomi Hashiguchi, or Nekojiru as she was known. The film carries an eerie tone throughout, capturing the fragility of life and the pressures of the creative world. Its pacing feels almost dreamlike, interspersing moments of reflection with raw, emotional interviews. Practical effects take a backseat here, as the focus leans heavily on personal narratives and the stark realities of mental health. What truly stands out is how it intertwines the whimsical nature of Nekojiru's art with the somber themes of her life, leaving you with a lingering sense of contemplation long after the credits roll.
