The art here is rawer and more idiosyncratic than some other anime, and there is a pleasing matter-of-factness about fleshy matters - drinking, sex, sickness - even as the more abstract question of art's practice and power is under consideration. November 11, 2016 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The animation is superb, with fine attention to period detail, and director Keiichi Hara's use of modern music - some of it rock-infused - is apt accompaniment to a story of a young woman who lives life boldly by refusing to bend to cultural norms. October 28, 2016 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…

This plush anime version of Hinako Sugiura's original manga tells a tale in a poetic, episodic fashion. October 28, 2016 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Although it's lovely to look at, the movie is disjointed and is told through a seemingly random collection of vignettes, some of which are more memorable than others. October 27, 2016 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

There are meditations on mortality, art, relationships, love, fear, sexuality and spirituality in this sumptuous-looking film. They cohere into a portrait of a young woman as complex as any big screen character can be. October 21, 2016 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

Director Keiichi Hara shapes Miss Hokusai less as a portrait of any one person than as a portrait of a particular time and place, how we in the present relate to that time, and how art bridges the gap. February 4, 2020 | Full Review…

I cannot praise this film enough. It simply refuses to take the easy way out or to tell a cliché story. February 8, 2019 | Full Review…

Through the use of stunning visuals and surprisingly effective, if not sparing, emotional beats, the film is a solid triumph. October 10, 2018 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…
