RPG Metanoia

RPG Metanoia is a 2010 Philippine animated science fantasy comedy-drama film directed and co-written by Luis C. Suárez in his directorial debut. Produced by Ambient Media, Thaumatrope Animation and Star Cinema, RPG Metanoia is the first feature-length Philippine animated film presented entirely in CGI (as of 2025, the only film to do so); the stereoscopy of the film for the 3D release was made by Roadrunner Network, Inc.

The film follows Nico, an introverted boy who is engrossed with a fictional MMORPG game under the name "Metanoia", using his playable character Zero, alongside with his friends. Eventually, a mysterious player is infected by a special item Nico found, which later the infection begins to spread the entire game by manipulating not only the players but the real people as well. Nico and his gang then aim to stop the virus from grave danger.

RPG Metanoia premiered in Philippine cinemas on December 25, 2010, as an official entry at the 2010 Metro Manila Film Festival, which received twelve nominations (the most of any animated films at the festival) and won four awards including the title for 3rd Best Picture, Best Sound Recording and Best Original Theme Song, as well as the Quezon City's special citation for animation in Most Gender-Sensitive Film. Despite its critical success in the film festival's awarding night, the film was a box-office disappointment with a total of ₱33 million against its production cost of ₱100 million, leaving the Philippine animation's legacy shifted into more independent, adult-oriented form.
