Yaemon the Locomotive (2009)

Go To

  • Awesome Moments:
    • In the climax of the movie, Yaemon has been derailed and is out of fuel, and Fukku has his hook on him and is ready to drag him off to the scrapyard. Yaemon, desperately, turns his gaze to the sky and begs for the strength to run for just one more day… and then a murder of crows, lead by Kasuke, fly down, with each crow bearing a lump of coal in their talons. And the following ignition of his fire, which happens with such force that a column of flame shoots out of his smokestack and gives him the strength to easily drag Fukku and Dimu backwards into a water tower before rerailing himself.
    • And then, when Dimu pursues Yaemon on a second set of tracks, they seem neck and neck until their tracks converge into one. Both try to push the other off, and it looks like Dimu is winning… until Yaemon shouts that he’s not done and inhales a great gulp of air, fanning his flames to the point that his entire front end starts glowing like the sun and the flames shooting from his smokestack turn blue before effortlessly slamming Dimu off the tracks.
