The two girls instantly form a unique connection and friendship that blurs the lines between fantasy and reality. But if they fail, they face the consequence of participating in a devastating war that will engulf both sides of the gate. When shy, artistic Anna moves to the seaside to live with her aunt and uncle, she stumbles upon an old mansion surrounded by marshes, and the mysterious young girl, Marnie, who lives there.
The new release cut out the original English songs, (which, I know not everyone likes them, but theyre cute & fit with the tone of the movie) as well as some ad-libs and additional lines from the late Phil Hartman, who voiced Jiji. Three months after the attack, Youji has been tasked with leading a special recon team, as part of a JSDF task force, that will be sent to the world beyond the gate-now being referred to as the “Special Region.” They must travel into this unknown world in order to learn more about what they are dealing with and attempt to befriend the locals in hopes of creating peaceful ties with the ruling empire. I know another comment says to only watch the newer dub of Kikis Delivery Service, but I wholeheartedly recommend the 1998 Disney dub as well. With swift actions, Youji saves as many lives as he can while the rest of the JSDF direct their efforts towards stopping the invasion. From this gate, supernatural creatures and warriors clad in medieval armor emerge, charging through the city, killing and destroying everything in their path. Off-duty Japan Self-Defense Forces (JSDF) officer and otaku, Youji Itami, is on his way to attend a doujin convention in Ginza, Tokyo when a mysterious portal in the shape of a large gate suddenly appears.
