Mind Game (2004)

Hoezo in KINO

Anime fans rejoice! KINO is teaming up with Kaboom Animation Festival and De Melkweg for a monthly series showcasing the best animated Japanese classics and more recent titles that deserve the biggest of screens. There’s a special place in our hearts for these animes, some of which we rented from import (and even bootleg) VHS tapes back in the day and we’re excited to partner with Kaboom to exhibit these beautifully crafted animations every third Wednesday of the month.

Nishi has always loved Myon since they were little. And now as adults, he wants to pursue his dream of becoming a manga artist and marrying his childhood sweetheart. There’s one problem, though. She’s already been proposed to and thinks Nishi is too much of a wimp. But upon meeting the fiancé while at her family’s diner and accepting him as a good guy, they encounter a couple of yakuza, only to have Nishi grasp a certain revelation. And, with his newly acquired look on life, adventures abound as he, Myon, and her sister, Yan, escape the yakuza into a most unlikely location…
