‘My Oni Girl’ Netflix Movie Review - A Cute Anime to Fill Your Day With Smiles

When a dull boy meets a girl with powers, what still happens to both of them? Will love to bloom between them, or things will make it hard for them to stick to one another. The amount of anime series and movies released this year is so unhealthy for me. I have been so addicted to anime series and movies that I am literally keeping tabs on almost every anime series and movie.

Well, lately, I have been continuously watching anime series and movies that are not slow-paced and are basically full of chaos. But I am glad that Netflix dropped a new anime movie recently that didn't fail to get my attention with its plot and cinematography.

My Oni Girl is a recently released anime movie on Netflix that is only 1 hour and 43 minutes long. The moment I saw this anime movie on Netflix, I didn't hesitate to watch it. Maybe I needed a simple and cute anime movie like this after watching so many hard ones.

It was a good experience watching My Oni Girl. The characters of this movie are so cute and well-portrayed; I felt so good and happy while watching it. Maybe it is not so wow-worthy for many anime lovers, but it is also not so bad. The plot, characters, songs, cinematography, and outcome of the movie are very detailed and well-written.

My Oni Girl is written by Tomotaka Shibayama and Yuko Kakihara; it is a fantasy film directed by the same. The plot is extremely cute, and I found myself asking for more of My Oni Girl.

My Oni Girl focuses on two different and opposite individuals and the way they live. It revolves around Yatsuse, Hiiragi, and Tsumugi. Yatsuse Hiiragi is a very dull guy who struggles to communicate with others and make friends. This is a huge issue for Yatsuse Hiiragi.

Yatsuse is a high school student, and he hardly has any good friends around him. His life suddenly takes an unexpected turn when he meets a mysterious girl who is actually an Oni girl. Tsumugi is an Oni girl, and she has entered the human world just to search for her mother. During the summer, she meets Yatsuse, and his life starts to change when he encounters an Oni girl for the first time.

The thing is, this movie is not only cute and sweet, but it is also kind of suspenseful. The main reason why this seems suspenseful to me is the disappearance of Tsumugi’s mother. The storyline is not boring; it is interesting and full of entertainment. If you are looking for something sweet, normal, and interesting, then this shouldn't be missed on your list.

If you are planning to watch this movie, then do share your thoughts with us and let us know about your favorite part of the movie.

Final Score- [7/10]
