Expand the realms of possibility for animation this month with the Screen Anime channel's latest line-up that celebrates experimental techniques, and anime's rising influence in other mediums. Leading this latest curated roster of films is Tokyo Ghoul, the Japanese live-action adaptation of Sui Ishida's internationally bestselling horror manga, that previously inspired the beloved anime franchise.
Screen Anime also invites you to experience new techniques and ideas in anime with The Case of Hana & Alice, a coming-of-age mystery celebrated for its use of rotoscoping, a technique of tracing live-action footage to create realistic motion seen in later films like 2017's Loving Vincent. Director Masaaki Yuasa has proven himself to be a favourite among Screen Anime fans, and there's no better showcase of why that is than his aptly-named experimental feature debut MIND GAME, which Time Out New York called "one of the best animated movies ever made".
Rounding up this latest line-up of spectacular anime is Summer Days with Coo, a folklore-driven family adventure from Keiichi Hara, director of Birthday Wonderland and Miss Hokusai.
All titles will be available on Screen Anime from 25 February 2021 until 25 March 2021, and will be available in Japanese with English subtitles, while Tokyo Ghoul will also be available with English language dubs.
