Inu-Oh
Oshimeter
Synopsis
After diving for an ancient sword in the waters where the battle of Dan-no-ura was fought and the Heike clan fell, Tomona loses both his sight and his father. Left with few options other than learning to play the biwa, Tomona gains enough skill to join a prestigious troupe of storytelling performers and takes the name "Tomoichi." Soon after, Tomoichi meets a strange person who finds joy in terrorizing others with his deformed appearance, but is surprised when the sightless storyteller treats him as an equal. The pair become fast friends and begin performing together after the stranger—who chooses the name "Inu-Ou"—discovers that he is able to hear spirits telling forgotten tales of the Heike clan. Tomoichi changes his name again to Tomoari and uses his music to promote Inu-Ou's underground dance performances, achieving incredible popularity among the masses. However, the brazen and unconventional style they develop challenges traditions that the shogunate values deeply. As the pair's fame continues to increase, they must contend with the forces of tradition that control the society around them.

A beautiful story with a clear message of friendship, a spectacular soundtrack, very entertaining and totally captivating, a joyful story with something very different from what we're used to. Totally recommended
This movie is absolutely incredible! 😭 The way Tomona and Inu-Oh turn every performance into something unforgettable had me completely hooked. The music, dancing, and stunning visuals are on another level, and their friendship is so heartwarming. The ending hit me right in the feels too, bittersweet and emotional while serving as a beautiful reminder of the bond they shared. I was honestly sitting there with chills and watery eyes by the final scene. You HAVE to watch it!🎸✨🥹
Its a fun movie about a blind musician and a deformed dancer start an ancient rock band to break a curse. I really loved the pacing and animation during the concert scenes and the soundtrack is great<<3333
I like this movie, it was unique and somehow have a educational concept. I like how they blend the historical culture in modern way, however some of the narrative are quite difficult to understand especially if not familiar in the folklore.

Inu-Oh is a visually stunning and imaginative film that blends history, music, and performance into a unique narrative. The dynamic animation, memorable soundtrack, and strong themes of identity and artistic expression make it a captivating experience.
The animation style is beautiful, but it is not something I will ever suggest to anyone.
