As I approach my 200th review, I’m increasingly encountering direct-to-video films. While I don’t oppose filmmakers or international animated features that find their way to video releases, the term “Direct-to-Video” often carries negative connotations. It usually suggests low-budget productions, featuring C-list actors, aspiring YouTubers, and animation quality reminiscent of late 90s or early 2000s TV shows. Though some exceptions exist, like quality films from GKids, the label doesn’t inspire confidence. Therefore, if I were to review a direct-to-video title, I’d choose something culturally significant and impactful in the animation world.
