This is a story of a 12-year-old girl, Kanna, born as a descendant of the Gods. Her family has a mission to deliver offerings from all over Japan to the Gods' gathering in Izumo. Although Kanna's mother was to complete the mission, her passing prompted Kanna to finish the task, hoping she could reunite with her dead mother in the Gods' land at the end of her journey.
"An animated production from the Japanese studio Liden Films for Netflix. 'Kanna and the Gods of October' is the story of a girl who, after a year of having lost her mother, discovers an entirely new world thanks to a bracelet she inherited from her. Now, upon coming into contact with the gods, she must traverse Japan to make it on time to a gathering of deities in a sacred land. The animation, while not at the level of the acclaimed Studio Ghibli or Studio Chizu, is cute, colorful and of quality, which combined with its beautiful (but never condescending) story about loss and learning to face pain, makes it an underrated gem among anime movies on the platform."
