The last time Momo saw her father they had a fight. Now all she has left to remember him by is an incomplete letter penned with the words "Dear Momo," but nothing more. Moving with her mother to the remote Japanese island of Shio, Momo soon discovers three Yokai living in her attic, a trio of mischievous spirit creatures that only she can see and who create mayhem in the tiny seaside community as she tries desperately to keep them hidden. But these funny monsters have a serious side and may hold the key to helping Momo discover what her father had been trying to tell her. ## Images ![A Letter to Momo (Special Edition) [Blu-ray] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61y2qPuv16L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A lovable burst of anime anyone can enjoy! *by A***T on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2014* I was fortunate to have the chance to watch the English dub of this film at the Kiggins Theatre in Vancouver. What a beautifully detailed and pleasant surprise it was. Not many animated films have been able to handle the topic of loss with such sincerity to the audience that may potentially connect with it. A Letter to Momo may feel too eager to charm (and pull off a fart joke - no, really), but that's because it knows its heart is always in the right place.Likewise, there's almost no shortage of reasons why parents should watch this with their entire family. A Letter to Momo puts great emphasis on the complicated feeling of regret, and the idea that no one has to ever deal with it alone. Yes, the creatures that completely change Momo's life do look a bit creepy at first for little kids, but Director/Writer Hiroyuki Okiura is able to give them a natural humanizing thread to each of them. It's quite a shame how long it took for this movie to reach North America, but that makes it all the more valuable. If you've taken a look at the trailers or short previews online, then it might come as no surprise when I recommend you get the Blu-Ray copy (with both English and Japanese dub) that truly shows off its wonderful artistry.The plot follows Momo and her mother, both dealing with her father's recent death and readjusting to a new lifestyle when they move to a quiet island. Iwa, Kawa, and Mame, the three odd-looking creatures ("goblins" as they call them in the movie) that suddenly break Momo's monotonous new life, are guardians of sorts who have descended onto Earth to look after her and her mother. You'll have to see the movie to get the more touching reasons on why they're here in the first place, but Momo has to deal with the fact that others cannot see the goblins. It also doesn't help that they're quite riotous and constantly hungry (their attempt at snatching baby boars for lunch hilariously backfires). Although it is reliant on the supernatural to carry much of its plot forward, A Letter to Momo is quick to clarify that grief has no easy process for coping with it. This is especially the case when an argument between Momo and her mother leads to a boiling point, stripped of any sugar coating or film cliches. At the same time, the writers give a rather sweet and understanding account of their lives to great effect. Much like the main character's development towards the end, the film never feels afraid to take the big dive into open water.A few details aren't explained as well as they should be, and that small feeling of concealment from the audience could very well be due to how inviting the whole movie is to its own intimate and honest world. One example is the fact that there is actually someone besides Momo who is able to see the goblins, and for some reason, that's either never fully explained, or we're supposed to assume that it's the same reason why Momo can see them. There's also a point in the movie where the goblins discuss their hesitation to break rules imposed from "above", even though it felt they broke quite a few with their own antics on the island already, so their whole discussion feels a bit redundant.Despite all that I've just nitpicked, it's still hard to pose negativity at such a humorous and moving animated film. With its utter charm and friendliness, it's not only willing to impose difficult questions but it's also willing to suggest realistic answers. I hope history will eventually place this among the list of animated classics. The film's resolute need for emotion is masterfully paired with its childlike curiosity, a rarity for any film - animated or live-action - to accomplish so effortlessly. Of course, this is all not without its superb hand-drawn presentation. A Letter to Momo is quite simply, in itself, a lovingly animated letter written for the eyes, the ears, and the heart. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars I loved this charming story for the magnificent art! *by J***C on Reviewed in the United States on June 2, 2020* This coming-of-age tale of discovering hope in the midst of loss is a familiar tear-jerker. As such, it is comfort food for the soul, well executed and emotionally satisfying. That said, the story is not what I'm recommending.The artwork perfectly captures the wistful tone of the story, mixing nostalgia with the joy of discovering new worlds and the creeping horror of being affected by tragedy. Not only are the characters charming and imaginative, the faithful recreation of rural Japan is completely immersive. This movie feels less like watching a story and more like taking a trip.The influences of Studio Ghibli and Miyazaki are apparent, but this feels distinct from those catalogs. First, there is a rich detail in the drawings coupled with the soft focus and subtlety on associates with watercolors. I can't explain how they managed to push in both directions at the same time. Second, and more important, the story remains much more grounded in reality than familiar films of this genre. The least realistic element felt like the encounter with wild pigs, not the fact that the story revolves around the main character's relationship with a group of normally invisible goblin spirits. Aside from the pig encounter, I felt immersed in a distant world the entire time. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Must watch! *by C***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2015* I watched this with the intention of adding it to my binge watching of what I described as "trashy animes." I was not prepared for this. A Letter to Momo is absolutely extraordinary, I'm gonna go there, I'm gonna use that word. It's bittersweet but beautifully upbeat and hopeful. It may be animated, it may involve the afterlife and mythical creatures, but it's incredibly real. Momo is a wonderful character, a shy teenage girl dealing with the loss of her father and moving from a major city to a small town in the wake of this event. The relationship between Momo and her mother is honest, showing quite nicely the hardships they both face in such a situation. It sets off a potentially very dark mood with cheerful side characters and gratuitous kindness. It doesn't belittle the feelings of children and teenagers, and it shows a lot of emotion as well as some pretty humorous conflicts that are resolved instead of just forgotten. It's interesting and sweet and I cried more than once, but I smiled more. I watched this, actually, as an attempt to distract myself from my own recent loss. I can't give it enough compliments; its hopeful approach to death finally put my mood on an upswing.Overall, A Letter to Momo is a gift to all ages. Beautiful animation, simple but delightful plot, and excellent characters with actual depth. Recommended to everyone. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/12923318-a-letter-to-momo-special-edition-blu-ray](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/12923318-a-letter-to-momo-special-edition-blu-ray) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-05-29*
