Synopsis
An aggressive and martial arts-devoted mantis kicks cans and hunts down cicadas, bringing havoc into the life of a couple of humans. This personal opus by Shintaro Kishimoto, now steady collaborator of Production I.G's 3D crew, won the prestigious Ofuji Award in 2005. (Source: Production I.G)
Audience Consensus
The short film 'Tough Guy!' is a unique and weird indie anime with a focus on martial arts and comedy. While the artistic vision is appreciated, the technical aspects such as sound, image, and dubbing quality are severely lacking. The lack of subtitles further detracts from the experience, but it's still a worthwhile watch for those interested in experimental animation.
Strengths
- Unique and weird artistic vision
