In this episode of Reactioncast, I review Bâan: The Boundary of Adulthood, a 20-minute anime short film from Garnt “Gigguk” Maneetapho. Unlike typical isekai stories, Bâan focuses on Daichi and Rin—two young adults crossing worlds in search of belonging, identity, and a place to call home.

With expressive animation from Studio Daisy and a heartfelt score by Kevin Penkin (Made in Abyss, Star Wars: Visions), this film captures the universal struggle of growing up and finding where you fit in the world.

Whether you’re an anime fan, someone who’s lived abroad, or just standing at the edge of adulthood, this story has something to say to you.
