I have a confession. I do not know Japanese and yet I watched this cartoon which had no captions nor was it dubbed! Pretty weird....as was this cartoon. And, it's one you really can watch and possibly enjoy...even if you can't understand everything.
The cartoon consists of a lot of Japanese folks fighting against a flying army of evil Mickey Mouses. Again and again, the grouchy looking Mickeys attack and are beaten each time by the good Japanese characters.
I am pretty sure this cartoon is all about the evil Americans....as embodied in Mickey Mouse. And, according to the film, ultimately they will be defeated by the noble Japanese. An obvious propaganda film which begs you to think that the Japanese public was being readied for WWII with America LONG before our history books indicate. In fact, you wonder how such films DIDN'T make Americans assume that a war with Japan was a strong possibility.
Overall, a very strange film that is interesting for historical reasons. As far as the quality of the film goes....well, it sucked. The animation quality was rather poor and the plot gratuitous and silly. Mostly of interest to history lovers versus animation fans.
