JK Sooja Common Sense Media This is a slow and contemplative anime drama about a boy learning to become more confident. For this reason, My Oni Girl might be too leisurely to command attention. Jun 12, 2024 Full Review Brittany Vincent Decider While this Ghibli-esque movie looks and sounds great, it’s a difficult watch thanks to its grating characters, plodding pace, and sometimes nonsensical story construction. Jun 10, 2024 Full Review Grant Watson Fiction Machine There are some engaging fantasy elements throughout the film, and a fair amount of humour, but ultimately nothing really shakes the perfunctory nature of the total product. Rated: 6/10 Jun 5, 2024 Full Review Charles Hartford But Why Tho? A Geek Community My Oni Girl is a decent movie. If you are someone who can’t get enough of the everyday person drawn into a fantastical adventure...this film will scratch that itch. If you are looking for a film that sets itself apart...this one does not...stand out. Rated: 6.5/10 May 27, 2024 Full Review Sam Barsanti IGN Movies It’s never a good thing when an ostensible romance, even one that is more about friendship than love, would be better without half of its central couple. Rated: 4/10 May 24, 2024 Full Review Daniel Hart Ready Steady Cut By the time you reach the end of My Oni Girl, you will adore Tsumugi and Hiiragi, and while it’s unlikely there will be a sequel (it feels like a one-off), there’s undoubtedly re-watch value. Rated: 4/5 May 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

harrah t It's confusing. The plot is all over the place. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/18/24 Full Review Audience Member A cute and lighthearted film about not hiding your true intentions and living the life you choose to live, but completely misses its own point at the very end. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/08/24 Full Review Sussudio H Don’t be misled by the “Studio” used in the name that produced this. It’s not the same one. Instead a poor man’s version of the great “ Spirited Away”. The characters lacked dimension and while the story itself started out with great promise dissolved by being incoherent and frankly boring. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/03/24 Full Review LABEL 2 俗套无聊的“boy meets girl”题材作品。前半段的儿童公路片缺乏充足的出发动机,后半段的寓言故事又充斥着模糊不清的叙事逻辑和半推半就的故事发展,而二者的衔接更是无比生硬。虽然“推举一人代众人受难”有着深厚的文化根基,但具体到隐之乡的社会现实中,这样的安排难免让人心生“自己人何苦为难自己人”的疑惑;即使将这种劣质的寓言故事视作对日本社会的某种影射,其指代人群的小众性和背景设定的不严谨又不能使人不质疑其现实价值。最后还是要吐槽一句,片中开放式的建筑设计是如何长期存在于这样终年严寒的地区的?
