The Fish Tale(bcSunday)
An ichthyologist, an illustrator and a television personality, Sakana-kun’s popularity in Japan stems from his ability to convey his deep knowledge of marine life in entertaining and eccentric ways. Loosely based on his autobiography, this joyously off-kilter comedy follows Meebo (Non), the fish enthusiast obsessed with marine life. As he did in The Story of Yonosuke, director Okita Shuichi portrays a naïve and utterly adorable character, whose lack of cynicism and tenacious passion rub off on the lives around them. Watch out for the real Sakana-kun in a pivotal cameo role.
