Released on January 1, 1930, the film was written and directed by Reikichi Inoue. Produced by Shinshin Kinema, the film is said to have made a strong impression on audiences at the time due to its unique story and message. The depths of the storyThe story of "Aki-chan's Toys" begins with the premise that the story of a book found in Aki-chan's toy box is turned into a video. The story is about fish in a certain country who ignore domestic bait and only jump at imported bait. However, the imported bait has deadly hooks attached to it, and the fish all end up being killed, leading to a tragic ending. At the end, it is revealed that what they thought was imported bait was actually domestic. The story is based on the theme of the fondness for domestically produced goods, and symbolically depicts the reliance on foreign products in Japanese society at the time and the dangers that come with it. This story is not just regarded as a fable, but also as one that reflects the concerns of Japanese society at the time. In particular, the early Showa period was a time when Japan was experiencing economic development but was also strongly influenced by foreign countries, and this work, which appeals for trust and patronage of domestically produced products, is thought to have made a deep impression on viewers. A fusion of animation and live action"Aki-chan's Toys" is a work that combines animation and live action. It is thought to be the result of pursuing a more realistic expression by skillfully combining animation and live action within the technical constraints of the time. In particular, the power of animation is maximized in scenes depicting the movements of the fish and the fear of the fishing hook. Meanwhile, in the live action portion, Aki-chan's toy box and the surrounding scenery are realistically depicted, aiming to create an effect of making the viewer feel closer to the character. This fusion of animation and live-action was a fresh experience for the audiences at the time. In addition, Reikichi Inoue's foresight and creativity are highly regarded from a technical standpoint. By combining animation and live-action, this work succeeded in achieving both depth of story and visual impact, and is said to have had a major influence on the development of later Japanese animation films. Achievements of the main staffReikichi Inoue, who wrote and directed "Aki-chan no Omocha", played an important role in the Japanese animation film industry in the early Showa period. His works are known for their stories that skillfully weave social messages and their technical innovation. "Aki-chan no Omocha" is another example of this, and can be said to be a work that brings together Reikichi Inoue's talent and passion. Shinshin Kinema was also a production company that played an important role in the production of Japanese animation films in the early Showa period. The company supported many talented creators, including Inoue Reikichi, and contributed to the development of Japanese animation films by introducing their works to the world.
