More Trailers for Studio Ponoc's 'Modest Heroes' Short Film Anthology

“Shun adores baseball. Only eggs defeat him.” Here we go! Japanese animation house Studio Ponoc has debuted three 30-second individual trailers for their new short films as part of their first Anthology feature. These short films will be released in Japan later this month together in one extended feature, Ponoc’s latest offering since Mary and the Witch’s Flower. This new series is titled “Ponoc Short Films Theatre”, and this first set is titled Modest Heroes. Ponoc recruited three of Ghibli’s finest veteran animators to make these three short films – Kanini & Kanino directed by Hiromasa Yonebayashi, Life Ain’t Gonna Lose (aka Samurai Egg) directed by Yoshiyuki Momose, and Invisible directed by Akihiko Yamashita. The trailers finally give us a better glimpse at the stories & characters in these shorts, and I’m still crazy excited to watch them. The Invisible short looks like the best, in my opinion, but they all have some serious charm. ›››
