MUMBAI: Future Film Festival is set to screen Toei Animation’s feature-length animated film, One Piece The Movie: The Episode of Chopper.
The festival, to be held in Italy, will also showcase the animated series GeGeGe No Kitaro, Hakaba Kitaro and Mononoke.
Future Film Festival will run from 27 January to 1 February.
One Piece the Movie: the Episode of Chopper is a special edition based on Toei Animation’s TV animated series One Piece. Toei Animation has been releasing a feature film based on the property every year since 2000. This movie is the 9th edition and was released in May 2008 in Japan.
In GeGeGe no Kitaro, Kitaro belongs to Yokai, a group of spirited creatures living a step away from the human world. Some of them are friendly but others are vicious. Kitaro and his companions help humans who get into trouble with the evil Yokai. This GeGeGe No Kitaro is the 5th season of the same title.
Based on Shigeru Mizuki’s early work, Hakaba Kitaro is a horror series with a touch of dark humour.
