This is told in first person (Kafka's part) and third (Nakata's part) and both blend perfectly together. Which is a feat because that's not easy to do.
Kafka is on a mission to find his mother and sister. The reason why will become clear as you read. And that reason is beyond weird. Granted it made sense, but still, wowzer batman, wowzer.
This is a blend of surreal, heart-warming, cringe-factor-1000, and bananas all wrapped in a succinct package. I can't and won't tell you more, except that it was superbly written and executed. That I miss these characters and want to back to them. At first I felt like I missed something of the overall experience (I mention that in my YouTube review) but after giving yet more thought I understand that I didn't - that I simply just miss these characters and the world in which they live.
That's why I changed my rating from a 4 to a 5.
