cinnamoroll is my fav sanrio character, ofc i had to watch this

as always, spoilers under the cut!!!
well…b4 watching the movie i saw some letterboxd reviews (it seems i cant control myself and go back to that lowkey anxious website (only good profile is asriel suzie miniike) BUT ANYWAY) and they said it was lowkey terrifying; and idk if im wayyy to easily influenced by external opinions BUT IT TRULY WAS. let me elaborate :3
maybe is bc i watched in 480p, but the aesthetics and animation had the capability of being cute yet scary, especially when shit got considerably more surreal and weird (like…the fucking monster chowder summoned. like wtf), and speaking about that, this film was considerably…surreal and weird (pardon my little vocabulary), because well: most of the other worldly setting REALLY played with the space, turning it into some abstract shit, akin to the nature of the weird dough monster that chowder summoned (they really made that unreasonablely creepy), and the crazy lighting and colors and the bunch of dangerous stuff there (for a kids movie, this was pretty wild), so yeah ;-;, poor cinnamon kids and chowder. i also liked the sweet and nice colors (it really complemented the atmosphere), and the monster…woah. gotta love that weird looking shading. im sure madoka mágica got inspired from this lol.
regarding the characters and themes themselves, this manages usual themes of love and friendship, but ngl, it was pretty intresting to see it develop; specially with chowder, he was a pretty intresting character (specially with his alternate version who kidnapped anna!!!) and i think that at the end we can conclude that while he was obsessed with her (and hurt her unreasonably), the thing that differentiated him from the version who kidnapped her was his kindness and sense of protection towards anna, which ig didnt made him the full on stalker we see, and once he gets friends, ig he has no reason to feel that jealous or possessive anymore since he has people who love him rn (since is safe to assume he didn’t had friends in the past) and wont leave his side (this doesnt make sense help); also is pretty cool they made cinnamorroll a cloud dog :D!!! i like the lore hehe. is pretty sweet overall, and u too should cherish the moments with ur loved ones and be kind to everyone!!!!! and prepare cinnamon rolls :3!!!
the music was nice too, i want to find the songs rn
overall a pretty kind (yet uncanny ;-;) anime!! as a fan of cinnamoroll i rlly enjoyed this :3
