With the development of human civilization, the scale of the city is getting bigger and bigger, in contrast, the green mountains and rivers are rapidly decreasing. Tokyo put forward the concept of "Tama New City" and expanded to the surrounding virgin forests. The tanuki family whose ancestors grew up in the Tama hills suffered a huge impact. With the sharp reduction of trees and flowers, the food for them to survive also began to be in short supply. In the end, a civil war broke out between Eagle Forest and Lingzhi Forest's civet cats, and the battle was fierce. Under the guidance of Granny Huoyu, the two factions of civet cats shook hands and made peace, and turned to the humans who were destroying the forest. In order to better understand their opponents, Granny Huoyu and Monk Guihe teach a long-forgotten art of transformation. After a period of hard practice, the civet cats finally learned to change freely. Under the leadership of the radical representative Quan Tai, some civet cats launched terrorist attacks on construction workers, causing many casualties. Although their actions have achieved results, they cannot stop the footsteps of human beings who are fascinated by interests.

    Theme: Humans and nature live in harmony. At the same time of urban construction, the ecological balance is destroyed, causing the resistance of natural creatures. This is to warn human beings not to deforestation excessively, to leave a living environment for other creatures on the earth, otherwise all will perish.

    6/10. The media used haunting to make news, amusement park imposters took the opportunity to hype, and the police shot and killed animals in the forest; the impeachment struggle between the peaceful and hardliners in the civet cats, the revival of national traditions and the construction of resistance. Some people think that the chaotic riots of civet cats are a metaphor for all the revolutions in human history, and the result is dumbfounding wasted work, and cross-species assimilation has become the only way to survive. In the first half, the various opening paragraphs are humorous, and in the second half, the story is told and preached.

Pom Poko quotes

  • Shokichi: As soon as it's springtime, everybody goes crazy. All of a sudden they want to get married and have families. Nobody seems to remember Oroku's warning that we're not supposed to have any cubs. The second the sun hits their fur, they fall in love.

    [He and Kiyo gaze into each other's eyes]

    Shokichi: But not us. You don't see us chasing after each other like we're lunatics. We can handle not getting married and not having cubs, don't you think?

    Kiyo: Of course we can. I'm so pleased. It's just what I'd hoped you'd say. You're... wonderful.

    [She embraces Shokichi passionately]

    Shokichi: Yeah. We can hold off. I don't need to kiss, or cuddle, or rub noses or...

    Kiyo: [eyes burning with desire] Oh, Shokichi.

    [She kisses him. She leans into Shokichi, then he leans into her]

    Narrator: That was a mistake.

  • Oroku: When I said go out into the world and make some money, I did not mean it literally!
