La vie de Dai Miyamoto change lorsqu'il découvre le jazz. Il se met alors au saxophone et s'entraîne tous les jours. Il quitte Sendai, sa ville natale, pour poursuivre sa carrière musicale à Tokyo avec l'aide de son ami Shunji. Jouant avec passion, Dai arrive un jour à convaincre le talentueux pianiste Yukinori de monter un groupe avec lui. Accompagné de Shunji qui débute à la batterie, ils forment le trio JASS. Au fil des concerts, ils se rapprochent de leur but : se produire au So Blue, le club de jazz le plus célèbre du Japon, avec l'espoir de changer à jamais le monde du jazz. (Eurozoom)

I like jazz; its spontaneity and playfulness really speak to me. And Blue Giant did an excellent job of capturing the essence of jazz. The performances, both musically and visually, were truly impressive. The camera work was engaging, but what really caught my eye was the stunning use of colors – they were enchanting, beautiful, simply breathtaking. I appreciated how the performances were interspersed with flashbacks that added depth to the story, seamlessly fitting into the narrative. Despite the stereotypical storyline following a group of musicians on their way to the top, complete with a few clichés (like the obligatory training scenes involving lots of running – not something I expected in a music-focused film), I found myself drawn into the journey. The emphasis on hard work and pouring one's heart into the music resonated with me. The characters felt believable and likable, and even the 3DCGI models used during musical performances, which I was initially apprehensive about after seeing the trailer, turned out to be quite impressive. However, what bothered me more in terms of animation was the style of shading which felt excessive and distracting. Overall, Blue Giant worked for me on a musical, visual, and emotional level, earning it a solid rating of 8/10.
