I’m not entirely sure what to say about Cencoroll, but it’s the sort of thing that makes you feel like you should give it a mention. It’s certainly impressive that most of the work that made this happen was put in by one guy. Most of my preconceptions of the movie were from the related tracks on supercell’s 「君の知らない物語」 single.

Basically, the entire thing is an excuse to watch monstrous blobs do weird things and fight each other. Not that that’s not entertaining. It’s pretty awesome seeing Cenco turn into various things like a car or a giant staple gun and have him just stare at the characters for a bit. The reason that that’s all the movie boiled down to was because it was just too short.

I mean, there’s tons of stuff that was really interesting that could have been expanded upon. The whole antenna-ahoge controlling the monsters and the mechanics of the monsters, some more about the characters, and tons of other stuff that weren’t explained are all fertile ground for more stuff we could have seen.

Since it’s only thirty minutes, it’s worth taking the time to see. Again, it’s pretty neat and I’d be surprised if someone who didn’t know about it would be disappointed by it. The worst thing about it really is that there isn’t any more.
