This was a lovely watch! The animation and design are flawless and well-crafted, the voice acting is great, and the stories are very compelling. I don't know what the people complaining were expecting, they probably thought it was a children's film. Not so, it's very much for adults, not only because it might be disturbing for younger viewers, but also because the themes it follows are painfully grown-up. All three chapters to me capture a Kafkaesque kind of horror (especially the second chapter). The protagonists bury themselves inside an archetypal house that promises them everything (status, money, familiar comfort) but ends up eating them alive as they fall victims of their own illusions. The house is a symbol of our blindness, our greed; all flaws which, if left to fester, may cause our ruin. Only the final chapter allows us to see a way out of our this prison, introducing some hope into this rather dark tale.
