Directed by Kohei Kadowaki, We Are Aliens leans on a strong ensemble — Ryota Bando, Amane Okayama, Ten Yamasaki — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about animation titles of 2026.
