Modest Heroes is a satisfying sophomore effort from Studio Ponoc, a collection of shorts that, together, resonate with the sentiment of that most joyous and courageous of adages made famous by the likes of Rod Serling: “...there’s nothing mightier than the meek.”

¿What does have in common two aquatic siblings, a kid who has food allergic and an invisible man? Nothing, except they are example of everyday, common heroes with no powers or dazzling suits. The three stories have an equal level of quality and magnetism; the story of invisible man takes all the glory. ¿Shall we wait for a volume two? ¡YES!

I actually enjoyed these shorts for the most parts. The first one was only repeating 3 words for 25 minutes but to be fair you didn't really require dialogue for it since it was a visually beautiful story telling with an amazing soundtrack. The second short was by far my most favorite since it told a really great story about a boy with an egg allergy but the way it was told was just really charming and ended on a possitive **** third one was a bit different than the rest but I enjoyed the art style from all of them and it was still an interesting albeit shorter story than the rest.
