Anime!

Hal

So to be exact this isn't a 'new watch' for me. I watched the short film about a month ago but am just getting around to writing my mini review for it. Sorry for not posting as much, I haven't been watching a lot of anime so...there isn't anything to update. Life has been busy. NOW for the review. Few small changes if they haven't already happened- I'm gonna be adding in the anime movies i watched to here as well. So stay tuned for those when I write them all up. 

Review:

Okay this movie is a tad bit slow at first, but once it gets up and going, it is a truly wonderful story. I ended up crying at more than one point. The way the told the story step by step and using flashbacks- so beautiful. It is set in a futuristic, modern world but they don't overplay things at all. It all seems so natural and the characters are all so interesting- I never stopped the movie or even took my eyes off the screen while watching. It is such a lovely story anD THE TWIST AT THE END TOOK ME BY SURPRISE. I was so thrown off, I didn't expect it at all. I watched this on Chrunchyroll but if you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it because it is such a sweet story.
