Ano hi mita hana no namae wo boku wa shiranai

This movie is adapted from the TV series of the same name. As for me, I am satisfied with all the actors whose appearance and figures are highly corresponding to the original TV series. Menma's performer really did a good job, because I suppose it was definitely hard to perform such a adorable girl full of vitality who is only-in-anime. However, this movie nearly didn't change anything from the anime which showed respect to the origin well but in turn made some plots unnatural and embarrassing. It will be more attractive if this movie had added or adapted some parts. In spite of the embarrassment, anime is artistic and flexible while the live- action edition is closer to real life and childhood. Both deserves to be recommended.
