I really want to see this feature. I had forgotten about it until now.

Bwahahahahaha! I've already seen Mai Mai Miracle at the Ottawa 09 International Animation Festival in October and quite honestly loved it. It's currently my second favourite film of 2009 (after Up, though I haven't seen The Fantastic Mr. Fox yet) and it's also my favourite anime film made since 1995's Whisper of the Heart, but I'm a sucker for gently-paced coming-of-age slice-of-life anime flicks.

I know Mai Mai Miracle will be seen as another "Ghibli wannabe" film from Madhouse, and it is obviously heavily Ghibli-influenced to be sure (it is from the assistant director of Kiki's Delivery Service), but I liked both this film and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time more than anything from Ghibli this decade so Madhouse striving to compete with Ghibli isn't necessarily a bad thing.
