Saezuru Tori Wa Habatakanai: The Clouds Gather

I didn't read the manga before watching this movie so I basically went in without knowing what would happen so that ending left me quite shocked and now I'm off to read the manga. I thought that this movie was poignant, leaving one with the lingering feelings of missing something that never was. The animation was beautiful and the main characters really intrigued me because they were complex with a multitude of edges sharpened from their tragic pasts. Maybe some people might feel uncomfortable watching this due to the mature and dark topics that the movie touches on but I think that if you're watching a movie about yakuzas and expecting it to be light-hearted, you're going in with the wrong mindset and expectations. The song at the end was also so good and fitted the overall tone of the movie really well.

So beautifully animated and in good taste. If the viewers are not familiar with the manga, then, be aware that it is an adult animation which features very mature subjects -of the psychological kind-, giving an insight of the MC's behavior of certain preferences in his "amorous/casual" rendez-vous.

During the movie, my be the mature and dark topic may disturbs some of us but this is so real, in life at some corner of the world, this kind of story is happening one way or another, and the movie conveys all of the truth both dark and bright side of life, the ending is utterly shook me and hit me in the heart like a bullet.

Well, i never thought about this to be that well written, within every 10-15 min, it just makes you more intense to know about the character like doumeki and yashiro. Yakuza plot is kinda felt good with BL. Just the thing twittering birds never fly I actually came to why this title is given to this story it is because to be caged with the lover which felt romantic. The Characters are damn smart! With very bold texture . And still it's a partial story make sink in suspense pit. An awesome move created by grizzly animation. This is kinda sexist movie but to be Frank the plot is awesome. I don't know why this is underrated.

This is something you should absolutely not miss out on. The story line is quite grim and the set up and pacing is just perfect. I m quite sensitive so this movie made me cry super hard at the end. The charecters have a lot of depth to them. The soundtrack was super addicting I ended up memorizing the entire lyrics..this movie is so underrated it deserves so much love. The reason why I gave it a 9 is probably because I believe there were a few plotholes and some charecters didn't make sense but thats just a personal bias..I loved the movie overall and its definitely worth recommending
