After being betrayed by his peers and lost both his father and his right arm, legendary craftsman "Jingoro Hidari" is on a journey of revenge with his partner "Sleeping Cat" and his mechanical prosthetic arm. Finally, Jingoro faces one of his adversaries "Inumaru" in a fight to the death...
This is a pilot version of the stop-motion samurai film that tells the story of "Jingoro Hidari," a legendary Edo-era craftsman. All the characters are made by wood and animated frame by frame, just like how Jingoro's wooden sculptures came to life in his many anecdotes. We hope you enjoy this film, which mixes dynamic actions as seen in Japanimation, and the rich analog expressions of stop-motion animation.
Our intention is to use this pilot film as a starting point to create a full length feature film. We have started activities to raise the necessary partners and funding to achieve this goal.

Hi everyone on RU-vid! Thank you for all the positive vibes and encouraging comments here❤The whole HIDARI team is feeling massive love from the global community, and it helps us big time, to keep pushing forward to making more of Jingoro’s stories come to life. I have a much longer story to tell about him, and yes, it involves his origin, more villains, more mecha, and more secret prosthetic weaponry :) Pls share the vid to your friends, as we continue to search for production partners & investors to make this into a full length film or series. Huge ARIGATO! Masa (Director & Voice actor of the doggo)

You must continue! I clicked on this video just mildly curious, I love stopmotion and Japanese art.. yet I was meh not expecting much it’s not often we see good stopmotion.. MIND BLOWN!!! It’s Incredible! The art alone of every piece is beautiful and detailed, then the story was action packed.. the freaking movement is flawless and the whole choreography is Interesting!!

@OnlyAson Год назад

My favorite thing about this is how no one's pretending that these aren't people made of wood. All the protagonists weapons are wood working tools or wooden mechanisms. Sawdust instead of blood. Even everything has a nice wooden clunk sound when it moves. It totally embraces the art form and breaks the 4th wall while giving me the feeling that this is just part of the lore of this world. The fight choreography is interesting and stylish. One of the coolest and most clever things I've seen in a while. Definitely would watch more of this.

@thomaspalazzolo5902 Год назад

@@STEFRICH60500P Well, Hidari Jingoro is a very interesting historical figure because although having a number of real world works that experts have attributed to him, most of his history is a mixture of various legends, such as him missing an arm. Stories vary from losing it to rivals, fire, a displeased mentor, yokai, and so on. It's likely he lost it to a work related accident and legends grew out from it. Unfortunately I can't read enough Japanese to read more material about him. But if anyone else knows more about him I'd love to learn too!

Stopmotion is that one medium I don't think that many people necessarily _want_ to do, but when it is done on a semi-professional level, it always comes out as a masterpiece.

Tbh it’s the medium that kinda requires the most passion for the art to even consider as a career path or make great imo. So I’m not exactly sure what you mean by “want to do”. Not many people may want to do it, which is valid. But I would have clarified that it is in of itself an art form that requires passion.

@paulkanja Год назад

@@ravimanne8148 i think they meant stop motion requires a lot of time and effort,, it's literally making a diorama for every frame there is after all, so like 4000 dioramas for 5 minutes at 12fps alone (plus taking the actual images, compositing them, adding extra vfx and touching the whole thing up, cause there's some stuff like sawdust you can't capture in stop motion)

why the algorythm didnt suggest me this masterpiece before

@Viscool8332 Год назад

The animation, the props, just the design and effort. It’s perfect. Almost unbelievable that it’s stop motion

@ryku2603 Год назад

The detail used in this animation. The fluidity. The smallest details. This must’ve taken an ubsurd amount of time to have created or even just start to plant. The craftsmanship is very respectable. The dolls used has so many thought out pivots I can only imagine the thought that went into writing this masterpiece. I can only enjoy this from the perspective of a person who doesn’t know much about the processes needed. So I hope that you are proud of what you’ve given to us because you should know it. I think this is the coolest thing I’ve ever seen and appreciated. Those who made this, you are wonderful. Thank you.

In cases like this sometimes I think the less you know about how it was made the more fascinated you ca be by it. IDK, I could be wrong, it's very important to appreciate all the hard work that went into something for you to enjoy it for such a short time

I can’t understate how clever the use of wooden figures having their blood being wood shavings is-holy frick

@juniperjabber 4 месяца назад

the level of detail and creativity in this is UNBELIEVEABLE! you can tell that every second of this animation was made with passion and dedication.

@AOMartialArts Год назад

This was absolutely MESMERIZING! This should be funded for a full length feature film: NOW. The light, the action, the sound, the tone and suspense of the dialogue, the subtle nod of the Nemuri-neko.... Absolutely exquisite!! 5 minutes had me more immersed than any hollywood production ever has.

Kurosawa and Max Fleischer would be proud of this film. I hope you all understand what a truly timeless masterpiece you’ve created here. Please do more.

I last watched this over a year ago, and it is STILL one of the best animated films ever created. Scratch that: it is one of the best films of any kind ever created, period. 😊

This is true art The characters are beautifully made And the stop motion is flawless

@EricDMMiller Год назад

It seemed really jerky and at a low framerate. It almost gave me motion sickness.

If someone told me this was a sort of alternative retelling of the Sculptor from Sekiro's time as a younger one-armed Shinobi, I would believe them without hesitation lol

@allthenamesiwantedweretaken 3 месяца назад

Just realized: Jingoro's cat companion that rests atop his weapon cabinet is supposed to be "nemuri-neko", the famous wood carving said to have been made by the real world Jingoro and is one of his most popular works. What great attention to detail there is in this!

@Legion563 Год назад

This by far is one of the most stylish pieces of stop motion work I've ever seen and I've watched plenty over the years as a big Wallace and Gromit fan etc. The sequence with his big arm 'powering up' via the strings as tendons was so well done and just the overall cinematography of the entire thing to be honest. A straight 10 outta 10, Aardman Animations better watch out lol.

@gwingcommander Год назад

The way you change camera angles and really explore the physical space of your scene is so captivating to watch. You really made the camera feel like a character in the sequence. Stylish, oddly violent, and enthralling. This was incredibly impressive!

@yodoleheehoo90 17 дней назад

it's been a long time since I was brought to tears by such an ambitious, beautiful, creative visual project! I can't believe this is an actual thing and every scene was fantastic and well crafted! Lots of animation today is now 3D, which diminishes the showing of real craftsmanship of drawing the world and characters living in it, but the stop motion medium is unique and quite pain staking to pull off! I hope this is still in the works because this needs a series/full length film! God bless all talented artists involved in bringing this to life!

The passion behind this production can be seen within every little detail. Should a full length movie truly emerge, it would be an honor to see such a work of art that tells the story of an artist.

Oh my god!!! This just kept getting better and better! I'm so impressed, not only by the choreography and animation, but by the overall ambience, texture, and presence of this film. I can't wait to see what comes next from your team. Cheers from a fellow stop motion animator in Los Angeles.

@braindamagecontent Год назад

THIS. This. is the most satisfying stop-motion animation I've ever seen in my life. The frame rate is low, but it fits great with the wooden theme and the slightly-clunky animation that resembles wood movement. Heck, there's even separate motion blur model for the epic looking chainsaw. The fight choreography is GREAT, and I really like how the background is changed to black during the fight scenes, which gives more focus to the epic fight scene.

@colpritatlarge1365 Месяц назад

I think I've watched this a dozen times already and I just keep coming back to it. This video is amazing. The camera work, the art design, the choreography, the music and timing and it's just all so good. I see myself coming back to this video quite a lot in the future as well, it's so good.

I read the Kickstarter update about the dogs and literally cooed out loud. They add such an adorable and funny detail to this intense scene! All of the puppets are amazing and I'm so excited to see more, but the dogs really grabbed me. ❤ Also, the sawdust as blood is so cool and interesting!
