About This Movie

Pro Golfer Saru: Kouga Hikyou! Kage no Ninpou Golfer Sanjou! has this quirky charm, you know? It blends a light-hearted animation style with a somewhat absurd premise. Set against the serene backdrop of the Japanese Alps, the tone is like a bizarre mix of sports action and ninja antics. The pacing is a bit off at times, but that adds to its odd appeal. You’ve got Saru and his family facing off against these bizarre golf-assassins, and the whole thing plays out with a unique sense of humor. The practical effects are kind of charmingly low-budget, and the performances have this earnestness that makes it feel endearing. It’s a trip, really, if you're into niche anime from the 80s.
