Momotaro's Sea Eagles (1943)
Considered the first animated feature film from Japan. Although it's short, it was billed as a main attraction. This government funded propaganda film features the classic folklore character Momotaro and his animal friends as they attack Pearl Harbor which is defended by characters strikingly similar to Bluto and Olive Oil from the Popeye cartoons. The animation is mixed with real video footage from the attack on Pearl Harbor supplied by the military.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Don't listen to the negative reviews
Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
