Trailer Synopsis Cast

Nuclear testing has resulted in the abrupt evolution of the Fumoon, a tiny but highly intelligent humanoid race on a small island, who are detected by Dr. Yamadano. Except for a few witnesses including the detective Shinsaku Ban, and the young men Rock and Kenichi and Kenichi’s sister Pichi (Pinoko), no one believes him. The Fumoon are kidnapping animals from around the world to bring with them as they use their space ships to evacuate the earth, because they know Earth is shortly to be destroyed by an enveloping cloud of black gas created by a stellar explosion. The Fumoon intend to abandon mankind, but one Fumoon, Rokoko, who becomes good friends with Kenichi, tries to help Dr. Yamadano and the others to develop a space ship to allow a few humans to escape, with the help of Dr. Ochanomizu and Dr. Frankenstein.

There are women in the film, but none has anything you could call a personality.

Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

I finally got to watch this animated classic from the 1980s. It was fantastic, extraordinary, wonderful, and very artistic. I just love how the film worked. The story about the discovery of the new human beings, Fummoon, is great. Various characters, many from different series and that "Star System" by Tezuka, played great roles. Duke Red was great as Colonel Lednof, a possible Soviet based figure from a different fictional nation. Detective Mustache was very interesting like always due to being in works like Metropolis (2001 movie) and Undersea Super Train: Marine Express (1979), which IMDb.com forgot to add to its system. And the main Fumoon, Rococo, is one of the most beautiful and creative characters by Tezuka. She was a major star in this. She made the film very interesting. This movie deals with war, peace, nature (mostly while not forcible), beauty, humanity, and faith. This is a great recommendation for anyone who likes animation films that are very well made and very good with its messages. This is a great GREAT film. If you do not get to see this, that is fine. To me, this film really helped me enjoy what it had. Even if it's old, it had a lot of style.10/10
