Now that Ghibli's new movie is coming out soon, I've been thinking about anime films and wanna talk about my favorite animated movie ever, Tokyo Godfathers.

TG is a 2003 tragicomedy by Satoshi Kon, following three unhoused people––an alcoholic, a runaway girl, an a trans woman––who find a baby in a dumpster and set off across Tokyo to reunite her with her parents.

If you like the sound of that, go watch it because the rest of this post is spoilers and I have FEELINGS about this movie.

URGHH, the fact that only two moments of true kindness, generosity, and care given to the three protagonists without any expectation of reciprocity are given by a Latin-American immigrant couple and a drag club full of queens and trans women. The fact that, despite her loud and dramatic personality, Hana is the glue that holds the team together and the heart of the whole movie. The fact that this movie pulls no punches at showing the violence and inhumanity committed by "civilized Japanese society" against the unhoused. The fact that Miyuki craves to be loved by her parents and ends up seeing Hana as her true mother. The fact that Miyuki starts off accidentally using transphobic language against Hana, but slowly begins calling her "Miss Hana" out of respect. The fact that, according to Kon, Hana's role in the story is as a mythological trickster god and "disturb the morality and order of society, but also play a role in revitalizing culture." The fact that Hana so desperately wants to be part of a true family, yet is willing to sacrifice her found family so they can be with their own, and is rewarded for her good deeds in the end by becoming a godmother. The fact that, throughout the movie, wind and light have been used to signify the presence of god's hand/influence (this movie's about nondenominational faith––faith in yourself, faith in others, faith in a higher power. Lots of religious are referenced, such as Buddhism/Hinduism, Christianity, and Shintoism), and in the climax of the film, as Hana jumps off a building to save a baby that isn't hers, a gust of wind and a shower of light save her from death. The fact that god saves a trans woman's life because she proved herself a mother, and that shit makes me CRY.

imagine being scotty in tos. every day your friend group goes on dangerous yet exciting adventures to new planets but you can never go because they always make you babysit the ship. also you have to stay on facetime with them the whole time in case they need a lift. you are the eternal designated driver. the seventh wheel. you dont mind as much as you should though because you sort of want to fuck the ship

btw none of the people in toji's film class knew about the fact that he has a kitten at home until one day mr satoru gojo the physics prof invaded his lecture and started talking about the little beast. and toji was about to tell him off very Politely but then realized that all of you were very like ?? about it, like none of you believed that he would have a cat and that pissed him off so fucking bad bc what the fuck do you mean he doesn't look like a cat person . and so he did end up showing you all a picture of his cat (it was a pic of it sleeping on his chest btw), and though he did do it in front of the class, meaning none of you got to see it up close, it still mattered. it made you all love him even more<33333333

This entire scene from Afternoon Delight singlehandedly rewired the synapses in my brain, literally changed the trajectory of my life and affected me on a molecular level that I am forever changed.

Okay, anyone who reads enough fanfic has read this one.

It's the fanfic where you can instantly tell who the writer's blorbo is. The blorbo had tragic circumstances in canon maybe but this fic blows it up to 11. The blorbo is horribly mistreated and horribly, horribly sad -- while also being portrayed as extremely beautiful beyond their initial canon depiction. Blorbo also might have been given extra superpowers and abilities.

There is at least one side character who also gets derailed to be extra mean to Blorbo. Maybe they did something in canon that was wrong but this fic blows it out of proportion in order to focus on how hurt Blorbo is. Or maybe the character did nothing wrong at all and was perfectly okay before, but now has their character completely rewritten in order to be an antagonist to the Blorbo and then of course get punished by the narrative for it.

Plot events are rewritten to revolve around Blorbo. If Blorbo was a secondary character before, they are now a main character. If they were a main character before, they still take on a larger share of scene time than previously and are more directly responsible for events. More time is devoted to other characters discussing the Blorbo as well, so that dialogue revolves around them even when they are not present in the scene.

Everything is now about the beautiful tragedy of Blorbo.

Any of that ringing a bell? Well, you can now go see this fanfic in theaters and it will be the most beautiful shit you will ever see in your entire life.
