[Q]Looking for an anime title [SOLVED] (sopuli.xyz)

Hello! If mods will think this post doesn't fit this community, do not bother with deleting it.

So, I am lookin for a title of anime I saw when I was younger. I do not remember too much tho, bc 1. I was a kid, and all of this could be a delusion of mine, 2. I had oportunity to watch only last 25 like minutes. 3. This is only one time event of mine.

All I remember is young girl quest to save sort of "tree of life". People were thinking the tree is dyin because it had no leaves, which later turned out as untrue - the tree was growing upside down. She had sort of buddy or two (they were simillar to each other) and were sort of a golems (made from sort of clay and kinda dum dum) who tried to stop the girl father from destroyin the tree of life with bazooka. I do not remember how it ended, but last think is true is place of action at the end of the movie - city along fantasy mountains.

So in the end, I would like to thank you for help, even if we wouldn't find the correct answer. At least you will reassure me that was just an imagination of mine :D wish you a great day/night!

EDIT: Found it thanks to you, at the end of the day it's not an anime, but I will have a great time rewatching it! Thank you all!!! Mia and the Migoo

Looks like the same question was asked on reddit once; they suggested Mia and the Migoo. Trailer.

No wonder I couldn't find it searching for anime, this is a French animated movie.

Damn, it looks like my memory had a little fun of me, but thanks to you, I am 90% sure that's it. Now I have to explain why I posted it there haha thank you so much!!!

Can you provide a year estimate when you saw it?

[–] wjs018@ani.social 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Sounds like a mix of nature and tech. I haven't seen this movie, but one that seems to kind of fit based on the wiki plot summary would be Origin: Spirits of the Past.

Made in Abyss has upside-down trees, but nothing else about that series matches up really.

Good luck in your quest!

[–] khaleer@sopuli.xyz 8 points 3 months ago

It's not this one, but I definitelly would love to have a look, thanks for a recommendation!

The anime you are describing is likely Deltora Quest. It features a young girl named Jasmine who, along with her companions, embarks on a quest to save the kingdom of Deltora and its mystical tree. The tree appears to be dying but is later revealed to be growing upside down. Jasmine's companions, who resemble clay golems, try to prevent her father from destroying the tree with a bazooka. The story unfolds in a fantasy setting with mountains, aligning with your description.

Great job finding that! I started reading the synopsis, but then realized that it was crazy long. Kudos to whatever fan was dedicated enough to write such a long synopsis, but I couldn't stick around and read the whole thing.

[–] glilimith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I read the books over and over as a child and knew the anime diverged from them but holy shit none of that sounds like the story I'm familiar with except the name jasmine and the fact that there are mountains

Edit: I skimmed/searched the linked page and that description doesn't actually sound accurate to the show as a whole, so maybe that's just a singular episode?

Edit 2: It sounds like the thing OP was looking for wasn't Deltora Quest after all, which makes me extremely skeptical your description has any truth to it at all.

What're the odds it's just ai?

[–] glilimith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 3 months ago

It definitely reads like an ai hallucination, lol

[–] wjs018@ani.social 1 points 3 months ago

Alright, you got me to go back and read that waaaay too long synopsis. This is definitely not it. There are tree themes/characters in the story, but not like OP describes.
