KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS FYC (FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION)
Kubo and the Two Strings is a visually stunning and emotionally gripping animated film that combines rich storytelling with breathtaking stop-motion animation. At the heart of the narrative is a young boy named Kubo, who embarks on an epic quest filled with challenges and adventures.
Kubo's journey begins in a small village where he lives with his ailing mother, who has raised him in secrecy. He possesses a unique talent for storytelling and is able to bring his origami creations to life with the magical shamisen he plays. Each night, he captivates the village with tales of his father, a legendary samurai warrior.
However, the peaceful life Kubo leads is disrupted when he inadvertently attracts the attention of a vengeful spirit from his past–the Moon King, who is intent on reclaiming his lost power and punishing Kubo for his father’s defiance. This spirit is not just a figment of Kubo’s imagination but a representation of unresolved family trauma that haunts him.
As Kubo embarks on his quest to locate a magical suit of armor that belonged to his father, he is joined by two companions: Monkey, a fierce guardian who offers wisdom and strength, and Beetle, a quirky, bumbling warrior who provides comic relief. Together, they face a series of formidable challenges that test their loyalty, courage, and resolve.
The magical suit of armor Kubo seeks is not just a protective outfit; it symbolizes the strength and legacy of his father, and ultimately, the connection to his identity. Along the way, Kubo discovers the importance of family, memory, and forgiveness. The emotional stakes rise as he confronts not only the external threats posed by the Moon King but also the internal struggles regarding his own fears and desires.
Throughout this journey, the film expertly weaves elements of Japanese mythology and culture, introducing audiences to the significance of honor, ancestry, and the power of storytelling. The film's rich visuals are complemented by a haunting score that heightens the emotional depth of the story.
As Kubo pieces together his past and embraces his true heritage, he learns valuable lessons about resilience and the enduring power of love. The climax of the film culminates in a breathtaking confrontation that ultimately leaves viewers reflecting on the nature of sacrifice and the bonds of family.
Kubo's transformation from an innocent boy into a courageous hero forms the backbone of the narrative, making Kubo and the Two Strings not only a delightful animated film but also a profound exploration of identity and legacy.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
