About This Boy Can Fight Aliens
When unstoppable aliens invade, it seems that all is lost until a teenager with the ability to defeat these invaders appears, but he has no memories of who he is or how to use his power.
Directed by Soubi Yamamoto, This Boy Can Fight Aliens leans on a strong ensemble — Ryohei Kimura, Daisuke Hirakawa, Yoshiyuki Shimozuma — 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 2011.
