Featured reviews
This movie can be incredibly cliche and sappy while also using a lot of the tropes expected from romance stories.
However, I still came out completely in love with it. There is a sense of heart and soul in every scene, every music score and every performance from both Japanese and the English dubbed. It's just a wonderfully made film that is just beautiful to look at with its amazing animation and character.
While romance is a core element of the film, there is also a wonderful message about allowing yourself to be able to pursue what you want without being shackled by your own situation.
It's a sweet and heart-warming film that you will no doubt enjoy.

Warm hearted, perfectly executed movie. To be honest really the plot isn't complicated, supernatural or science fictional. Just a simple romance story of a boy and a handicapped girl. Yet it's superbly executed! And the animation is like icing on the cake,the soundtrack is also great,i was hesitating at first that it might be another heart breaking, emotional movie but to my surprise the ending was really great and every minute is worth it. With no offense and no comparison to other anime films it's an amazing movie in itself.
I went to go see this movie with a friend and neither of us were disappointed. When my boyfriend went to see it a few days before and wasn't fond of it, I was sceptical, but I was glad that my expectations were exceeded.
The only problem I have with the film is that the pacing in the first half is a bit off. Everything seems to happen a bit too quickly, but for a short movie, I can't blame it, and the rest of the movie more than made up for this small detail.
I loved this film and would recommend to anybody who likes emotional romances and an anime-style animation.

The execution of all the emotions was perfect and it reached my heart. And studio Bones did an excellent job with animating the film. The animation quality was on par with "Your Name". Overall a very nice romance movie. Loved it🌸🌸
