THIS is how you do a romance movie
19 July 2016
I have never in my life seen a better story about a couple already in love than this movie. Usually a film is spent with the couple trying to get together for the entire thing, but it is rare to see a film that focuses on a couple already in love (without children) and the premise isn't about them having marital troubles.

I absolutely ADORE this movie. This has been my favorite anime movie for years. The animation is gorgeous, the music is wonderful, the voice acting (japanese anyway as Kikuo Inoue's voice is like butter) is fantastic and the story is calm, yet epic.

I won't give away what the plot is as I want you to see it for yourself, but needless to say, it is more than worth the watch. It leaves you with a feeling that everything will be okay and it set the standard for me when I was younger about what being in a relationship should be like. Yeah it set the bar pretty high, but that's the feeling you get from this film.

This is one of those few movies that is less a film, and more a life changing experience. If I could give this film an 11 I would. It is rare that I give a movie such unfiltered praise, but it really is one of the very few that actually deserve it. It is just a shame that the new series couldn't follow in the original OVA and film's footsteps.
