「日本列島 いきものたちの物語」Final Review


A-m-a-z-i-n-g!!
This is probably one of the best natural documentaries I've ever seen!!
I'm so happy I could watch it!
Aiba and his collegues where just voices telling us the story we see but their script was really good. I can't recognise the voices (except for Aiba's) but everyone did a good job, every narrator had his/her own style and they all made me feel like I want to hear more about the story, as I was a kid. Aiba's voice is certainly perfect for this kind of narration work, I've always liked its sound ^^



You must see it, there isn't a lot I can say about it.
My favourite stories where Nadaka's (monkey), Poro&Pon (bear) and the fox one! I really wished to know if Nadaka won over the cold winter, but I bet she did.
What I liked of this docu was that some of the animals they followed died and some survived. Many times documentaries don't show us the death, and off course is hard to see an animal who dies, but I appreciated it, because when there is death... we find out that there is also life. Like a circle of life (I'm a The Lion King's fan XD). Nothing is created form nothing and nothing is fated to become nothing. Everyone, every animal, goes on living in other animals' lifes.
That's nature and it's amazing. Livin in a big city is easy to forget this simple thing.



I've seen also some of the extras in the DVD. Gosh I wanted to die seeing Aiba went in the same places where I went just a couple of weeks after him, during my trip to Taiwan (I even passed in front of the school he went to show the movie, just at that time i didn't know about it XD)(anyway, he wasn't there anymore!).
But I'm happy the movie was seen in other countries too. It's beautiful to see how other places' nature is different from the one in your own country.
Ah! The sound track!! I loved it! (ok, ok... I'm a crazy sound tracks' fan, you know XD this one fitted the images perfectly).



Final vote 10/10!!
