ALL YOU NEED IS KILL

A time loop transformed into an emotional battlefield where each death sharpens skills but erodes the spirit. The film transcends the mechanics of repetition to explore how two souls can forge meaning amid chaos.

Ideal if you're looking for a sci-fi action narrative that balances relentless combat with the vulnerability of human connection.

After an unidentified plant from outer space invasion, Rita finds herself trapped in a time loop, forced to relive the same day over and over again. With each loop, she learns. She fights. Her memories and experiences sharpen her skills, turning her into a formidable warrior. Yet, the endless cycle of death and solitude begins to wear her down. Then, she meets Keiji. "I've been repeating this day too," he says. Two lost souls, trapped in an endless war. Could their meeting change fate? (Source: Warner Bros. Japan Anime) Note: The film received an early premiere at the 2025 Annecy International Animation Film Festival on June 9, 2025.
