SYNOPSIS
–
Since its publication in Weekly Shonen Magazine in 2016, To Your Eternity has emerged as one of the most singular works in contemporary Shōnen. A mystical and philosophical fresco on immortality, memory and the human experience.
To mark the launch of season 3 of the anime, this documentary offers an immersion into the heart of the work’s creation, through the voice of its author Yoshitoki Oima and the team at Studio Massket. From Gifu, her childhood region, to Kodansha’s headquarters, through the behind-the-scenes of the animation studio and the NHK studios, the film traces the genesis of the manga, its translation to the screen, and the making of a landmark season.
A creative and philosophical journey across Japan, in the footsteps of a cult work.
