27 February 2014, just on the occasion of Carnival, it arrives in Italy The craziest school in the world (H kago middonait zu), the new animated feature film by the Japanese Hitoshi Takekiyo. The 2012 film, lasting 95 minutes, was written with Yoichi Komori, produced by the creative studio Koo-Ki, and distributed in Italian cinemas by Microcinema. The idea was born from one of the 4 short films made by Takekiyo himself in 2007 for a music channel of the Rising Sun. Of the 4 subjects: a ninja, Jesus, Dracula and an anatomical model (very animated!), The latter, after having received the favor of critics and won numerous awards in festivals around the world, has become the protagonist of the film !

In St. Claire primary school time for new enrollments and the doors open to future students. Among them there are three very nice girls, but a little too curious. I'm Mako, real little plague, Miko, vain and always fashionable girl e Matsuko, the geek of the group.
Wandering through the corridors of the school in search of something interesting to do, the three little pests arrive in front of a door with a sign in large letters that warns not to enter. It is the science classroom, which will soon be dismantled and, for this reason, closed to the public. Undaunted, the trio defies fate and lowers the handle ... what a surprise when they find a life-size anatomical model! Immediately renamed Mr Naked , in their hands, from a model used in anatomy lessons, the Nude is transformed into a perfect doll to try out new combinations of make-up and hair, to draw and mess around!

But the night, when the Mr. Kun (this is his real name) comes to life, he really has reason to get mad! With the help of the skeleton barone, his friend and trusted assistant, and the three gun-toting bunnies of the Rabbit Mafia, Mr. Kun decides to take revenge with a diabolical plan: to scare the hell out of the three girls during the phantom Midnight Party. But the task of frightening the super trio turns out to be very difficult and it is good not to underestimate Mako, Miko and Matsuko! Supported by an inexhaustible dose of courage and enthusiasm, in fact, and by a dark and gothic spirit, what they want is to have fun and nothing can scare them.
And the adventure of the three little pests in the bizarre and absurd world of Mr. Nudo and his cronies is immediately surreal and hilarious. Decided to win the three Medals of Terror that will lead them to the end of the party, the girls will have to pass three tests, as in the most classic of stories, and they will come across bizarre characters and theatrical twists.
In fact, at night, as in any self-respecting urban legend, everything comes alive inside the school and the strange and unlikely creatures that are motionless during the day, come to life, in a tireless and unbridled ballet. There is the Triton, king of the swimming pool, the Witches of the computer room, the mysterious Mosca Chabris and so on and so forth!

Endowed with great charisma and unusual personality, the characters immediately capture the attention of the audience for their comic and absurd side. Starting with the three girls, who have very little of childishness and defenselessness, despite their tender age. As little superheroes, in fact, they have strong and well-defined features. Mako with red hair and three codes on her head, she is the boss, courageous, chatty, very curious and fearless. The very blonde Miko is there fashion girl of the trio, apparently snobbish, but always ready to help her friends. Matsuko (nicknamed Mu), with long black hair that covers her eyes is the most peaceful, she loves to explore every corner of the world and put everything she finds in her inseparable jar.
Even the bad guys, despite their looks and their intent to scare, have little to do with fear. Mr. Kun (or Mr. Naked) is an anatomical model with innards and organs in full view, he loves to sing, dance, experiment, and watch his favorite movie Ritorno al futuro! He is just a little too irritable and touchy, but in that he is compensated by his skeletal partner, the Baron. Apprehensive and afraid of everything, Barone is an excellent friend and adviser. With two cracks along his left eye and under his nose, precisely in the shape of a mustache, he is in constant alarm for fear that his bones will break and moves with extreme caution.

With her dark atmosphere, dominated by the nonsense e da gag dal Gothic scent, The craziest school in the world very special mix. In a harmonious and dazed way the tradition of Japanese anime come together (the trio that wanders at night in an animated kingdom immediately refers to the character of Chihiro de The enchanted city of Miyazaki) And the American cinema at Pixar , but not only. Takekiyo's personal tastes burst into the film, with real quotes. They recognize each other Ritorno al futuro (not surprisingly the favorite film of Mr. Nude), Star Wars, the Gremlins, i Ghostbusters, La fabbrica di cioccolato by Tim Burton or, in general, video games. But the references in the film are also others. The science fiction comics of the Frenchman Jean Giraud (aka Moebius), which Takekiyo is inspired by in neutral colors, and the Japanese musician-comedian group of Drifters, distinguished by a humor slapstick comedy.
Made with the technique of computer graphics and motion capture, The craziest school in the world A story without heroes, it is the representation of a monstrous world of ghosts that are not scary. Pervaded by a humor that the British would define odds, a entertainment movies, which must in every way entertain the viewer, dragging him into his contagious vortex of Gothic surrealism.
