i truly did not think or expect that i would love this as much as i did. The beginning and ending are a beautiful connected animation that i really enjoyed, the story is slow and from the beginning till the end there was not a lot that changed or happened but non the less the characters themselves did and we along side them saw how it happened. I know this movie is not for everyone and that a lot of people will thing its either boring or non pleasant because of the flashbacks( which were done beautifully and seamlessly ) which makes sense but i would love if people still give thins movie a shot cuz i truly think its worth it. Even though its older cinematography was still very good to be honest for me it even made it better because it kind of added to the charm of the movie. The characters are done very well you truly get every action the make even if you dont like it you get why they made it and you get why they are the person that they are today here i am especially talking about the fl. i like the ml a lot he was a very likable character and just a good significant other. All in all i loved this movie from now on its in my top 10s and i recommend it highly to anyone you is thinking of seeing it!
