Oblivion Island Haruka And The Magic Mirror

Nội dung phim

Hey folks, Valkor here. What do you get if you were to take a giant pot, stir in the likes of "The Wizard of Oz", toss in some "Alice in Wonderland", and a heavy dose of CGI? You'll get something like Shinsuke Sato's "Oblivion Island: Haruka and the Magic Mirror" aka "Hottorake no Shima" or "Haruka to Maho no Kagami". But no matter what you call it, it will still come out great!

Oblivion Island follows the adventures of Haruka (Haruka Ayase) as she enters a magical world where items that were "forgotten" or lost but never sought out, are taken by these creatures to help build their own world. In Haruka's case, all she wants is her mom's mirror that was given to her as a child, just before her mom passed away. A mirror she promised her mom that she won't ever forget. Now with the help of her new friend Teo (Miyuki Sawashiro), the twosome seeks out the mirror, only it's in the clutches of "The Baron", the guy who runs Oblivion Island.

It turns out that Haruka's mirror is the most powerful mirror in the land and The Baron has some serious plans in store for it. It's explained that mirrors hold a special power and that if placed inside inanimate objects (such as Haruka's long lost doll Cotton), that object will come to life. The Baron wants to use Haruka's mirror to be the source of all power, for all the mirrors that he has in his control, which in turn will give life to a robotic army that will be used to take over the human world. Will Haruka retrieve the mirror in time to save the Oblivion Island plus her own, and return back to her own world?

It's a happy ending story, so of course she'll succeed. But it's getting there that's half the fun and lots of wonder and excitement waits behind every turn.
