Friends: Mononoke Shima no Naki

A human child named Kotake wanders onto an island of creatures who fear people as much as people fear them. Naki, a gruff red ogre, reluctantly takes responsibility for him with help from his blue companion Gunjo.

Living together gradually wears away their distrust. Yet returning Kotake to his own world places their growing bond under strain, confronting Naki with loneliness and the difficult choices that genuine friendship can demand.
