.hack//G.U. Returner

The characters receive an email from Ovan requesting them to go to Δ Hidden Forbidden Festival where a mysterious summer festival is set up. There they encounter an AIDA Chim Chim who wishes to peacefully co-exist with the players of The World. It then transforms into the word "Returner", which Haseo assumes it to mean that Ovan will return to The World.

Directed by Koichi Mashimo, .hack//G.U. Returner leans on a strong ensemble — Takahiro Sakurai, Ayako Kawasumi, Kaori Nazuka — 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 drama titles of 2007.
