Last Thursday we watched an animated film Miss

Hokusai. It is a Japanese historical manga series written and
illustrated by Hinako Sugiura. It was adapted into an animated
film, miss Hokusai, directed by Keiichi Hara, that was released in
2015. Set in 1814, Miss Hokusai focuses on O-Ei, the daughter of
famed different aspects of her life. O-ei spends every part of her
time assisting her divorced father who cares about his art and not
much else. O-Ei has younger sister and her name is O-nao but
lately on, she died. The city of Edo is one of the most populated
homes of peasants, samurai, townsmen, merchants, nobles,
artists, courtesans, and maybe even supernatural beings that is
now known as Tokyo, Japan. The story is very unique and I
appreciated all the animation things they made to this wonderful
movie. As I watched the movie, I am so amazed to those artist
who made behind it and I am inspired to make lots of art in the
field of painting and drawing because of that movie. I hope that
Sir Doctolero will make us watch a movie again that has a
connection to animation.
