A new news article has been posted!
The 33rd Tokyo International Film Festival, which is currently being held from October 31st, 2020 to November 9th, 2020, has a special Japanese Animation section. Pokémon the Movie: Everyone's Story was the 21st Pokémon film and it was released in 2018. A screening of the movie was held on November 4th, 2020, at TOHO Cinemas Roppongi Hills in Tokyo, where director Tetsuo Yajima and guest voice actors Shoko Nakagawa took to the stage. Pictures taken at this event have been added to an Imageboard thread.
Yajima is also working on the latest film "Pokémon the Movie: Coco", and the latter half of the event was focused on Coco. "I'm working on it right now," Yajima confessed. Nakagawa, who is a regular guest voice actor in the movie series, also appears in Coco, and she said, "The release date (of the film) went from summer to winter, but you've been working on it all along! That much quality!?"
He was amazed and said, "It's really is love, isn't it? It's not just about work, it's beyond work. For the sake of Pokémon, we're losing ...... HP, you keep even if you're losing HP, right? I'm going to make something that I'm happy with until I deliver it to you all." said a passionate Yajima, who was concerned about his health.
Animation critic Ryota Fujitsu, asked him about the theme of Coco. Yajima replied, "When I wondered if there was something I could draw as a director, my son's face came to my mind. If I could depict it, I think it would be the love between a parent and a child, so I made the suggestion. My view of life has changed quite a bit because of my son. I thought if I could share that with you all, it would make this story even more moving, so we made this film."
Shoko Nakagawa, is a "Pokémon native (ポケモンネイティブ)" of the same generation as director Yajima who also has a "love for Pokémon". She said, "In preparation for the release of "Coco," Satoshi was saying 'Pokémon in summer!' as it's a summer tradition (for the Pokémon movies), but for the first time it will be a winter release, so it's a big Pokémon Christmas present. I think it's because we're in such dark times that we can find so-called beacons of light like the kind in the Coco movie!"
