Ride your wave: juntos en el mar

Just surfing through life.

A romance anime that I found on HBO Max.

The animation for this movie was gorgeous and cute. The look of the ocean and waves were so refreshing. It just made me feel relaxed and happy watching this animation.

This movie had a one of those montages of a couple that would make you feel sad that you're single. The romance was cute and I enjoyed watching the relationship.

As for the story, something major happened midway that required the main character to move on. There's a big element of fantasy, but not one that I haven't seen before. The plot was pretty typical of a drama dealing with death and moving on, so there wasn't too many surprises. Also, the emotion wasn't as high as I wanted, probably because of the typical storyline and the light tone.

The characters were pretty okay and not unexpected. The main characters were focused mostly, and the two side characters wasn't delved into as much.

Overall, beautiful and refreshing animation made for a pretty enjoyable romance drama. 7.5/10.

I've been putting this movie on my to watch list ever since I watch the trailer, it seems very well animated and the colour just pop out and looking soo interesting. But, I've been reluctant on watching it since the story seems too lovey dovey and too sweet for my taste. I'm quite familiar with manga that dabble in the same area and I've avoiding those kind.

But oh boy oh boy, this one is good. Sure at first it felt like that, a couple start too fall in love and it's very romanticized. The good thing is the female and male lead sold it off very well and the voice actor really did a good job on building the chemistry between each other. So, instead of feeling cringe, i start to having fun too watching them.

I give it quite a high rating because I didn't expect much from the plot. But, this movie prove me wrong. Sure, the story is still chokefull of cliche. But, the movie make it feel fun and i know i probably not the main audience for this kind of movie, so to me it's all right. Also, like I said the animation is very beautiful. The colour is very vibrant, and the way they use colour to accentuate characters and the scenery is very on point. It's quite an eyegasm.

Recommend if you feel in the mood for some light hearted bittersweet romance.

Cute, loving and touching. The graphics are good and original! In my opinion it is underestimated... For those who love anime films of youthful loves must watch it!

Thank god the script writer avoids all the common cliche from a Japanese anime. It's a sincere and touching story, worth the time.

When I first watched the film, I thought the pacing was way too quick for me to actually understand what was going on. Although I will say that the fire fighter scenes were pretty intense regardless if they were only training or had to attend buildings that were on fire due to fireworks.

I understood this films backdrop involving the feeling of losing someone through drowning and honestly the ending was a near hard hitter for me. However I would have liked if the couples experience together was more in depth because as I said yet again, it was rather rushed. It didn't give much in depth either with the other guy who had a crush on her or if he was going for someone else. Since I'm not gonna say spoilers to telling you who's who, it's best to watch the film.

Animation wise, it was pretty alright. Not amazeballs but it was easy on the eyes at least.

As much as the film did offer a bit of emotion, it's not the ultimate worse or disappointment I've ever seen. However room for improvement is what it definitely definitely needs in terms of story pace development.......
