I watched a famous classical animation movie, “Royal Space Force: The Wings of Honnêamise”. Although the title itself describes “Royal Space Force”, the characters not even travel freely in the universe; the story is what they mean to do by trying to be the first astronaut in the described fictional world of low technological level with certain tensions among the countries that do exist in the world. The main character is a dull, unmotivated person, but he seeks the meaning of one’s existence and finally solves the matter as a certain form. All the dull and meaningless worlds, even involving space developments themselves, are settled down to a certain solution. Religions, despite its unreliability and conflicts to the science, cast a certain light to their comfortable places. The existence of what guide the people is a matter similar to Arthur C. Clarke’s “Childhood’s End”, but not explicitly appears in the movie. Ryuichi Sakamoto is one of the composers in charge of the music.
