Tokyo Godfathers
Another <PERSON> film that instantly won me over. As usual, it’s the brisk pacing and the dynamic animation that brought me into this story, but it’s also worth noting just how much heart Kon manages to put into this. I loved following this trio as they go on their own odd little adventures and how their pasts are slowly revealed to us, using chance and coincidence to fuel this story of family and reconnecting, and all of it infused with the perfect amount of Christmas magic.
