Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki

I think if you liked Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki, you might enjoy Cat Soup. These anime are somewhat disturbing, yet humorous still (if you have a dark sense of humor) and the lack of dialogue leaves your imagination to do some of the work. Both of these anime are good for someone who is looking for something "outside of the box" as neither one come close to being 'traditional'.

First of all in both animes acts a creature what should be a cat :) next I think these two animes are really alike by those unfinishing transformations ogf the characters and their suroundings. And at last both Cat Soup and Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki gives a lot to think about.

Of the 狐狸 (kori, foxes and tanuki), the Japanese trickster-spirit animals that regularly assume human form, the most commonly used in anime is the fox spirit, 狐 (kitsune). For various reasons, the 狸 (tanuki, Japanese "raccoon-dog" or Nyctereutes procyonoides) is not seen as often. However, both trickster species have a strong role in Japanese folklore, and both make their appearances in Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki and Pom Poko.

If you find Japanese folklore fascinating; if you are captivated by the trickster animals; or if you just want to see how very far Japanese animation had come, from 1933 to 1994, then you must see both these anime.

Broken Down Film is an homage to very early silent shorts; Ugokie Kori no Tatehiki is the real thing. I found Broken Down Film mildly amusing while the original was less so but you'll likely enjoy either as much.
