Dofus: Book 1 – Julith (2015)

Rarely a movie makes me scream “DAMN! WHAT A MOVIE!” And this one, needless to say, made me scream it more than once. Already acquainted with Ankama’s two biggest products, the Wakfu game and cartoon, I was surprised I let this movie pass, or maybe not, it’s barely a month since I started the game/anime. And of course, I became immediately hooked. So when I started this movie, first thing I noticed was the gorgeous animation. From the flash animation they use in Wakfu to what seems to be traditional animation. Every scene was gorgeous to look at. The scenarios were wonderful, and the fights, oh dear me, the fights. I can’t pick my favorite, but they were all amazing.As for storytelling, well, congratulations, Ankama, I put you in the same level as Avatar, Dreamworks and Disney. You managed to keep it both lighthearted but also deep. Funny but also dramatic. Once again, a villain well-developed with unpredictable plot twists, emotional attachment and quite a perfect ending. Voice-acting, needless to say, top-notch. I don’t understand french, but I’ll never trade it for another language, let the subtitles guide me through your lines, I love your choice of voices and how much effort they put.
