Ride your wave: juntos en el mar

I watched this movie without watching a trailer or even reading what it was about and I loved it alot. It caught me off guard and became one of my new favorite anime movies. The animation style was unique and the story was really cute. The English dub was really solid matched the characters perfectly. Give it a watch!

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!

The plot had some pacing and character development issues but I still bawled like a baby. The idea is fresh and rid of clichés. Overall a decent movie.

This movie, without giving away any spoilers, was amazing. I loved the story. I've seen where people say it was predictable or just another love story. I have to both agree and disagree. Yes, there were aspects of "your standard love story" that made parts of this "predictable", but it was truly SO much more than that. This movie had me laughing, smiling, and crying by time it was over. The feels are definitely there. You can add in the fact that "Brand New Story" (the leading song) is sung by the main characters actual voice actors, the leading male voice actor being part of the band that wrote the song originally. This adds plenty of depth and connection that you wouldn't get if it was just a background song. With that last part being said, this movie may not work out as well being dubbed. I feel that the two characters singing the song really helps establish a connection that wouldn't be there other wise. It makes it specifically, "Their Song."

In the end, I find this movie to be phenomenal and remarkable on plenty of levels, and would be interested in watching it dubbed in my native tongue to see if the connection i mentioned earlier is still there.
