Planetarian: Snow Globe

Planetarian... One of the most underrated anime out there.

First of all, if you haven't watched the sequel, it's totally fine ! You can watch PLANETARIAN: SNOW GLOBE beforehand ! To avoid any spoil, I will just let you know that this is just the beginning of a wondeful anime, that can bring you tears and a lot of different emotions at the same time. I think that by watching snow globe first, your experience watchin the sequel anime will be greatly improved and I have to admit : I'm jealous of you.

Now for those who have already watched the sequel : You will love ... to learn more about the universe and the planetarium employees, and Yumemi-chan !

Overall, this short 36minutes long prequel will be liked by (I hope) everyone !

I really tried to make this review short because in the end this is something you'll enjoy experiencing. Just like the planetarium, planetarian will make you live an incredible moment, so please take a seat !

Although this ‘Planetarian: Snow Globe’ is labeled as a prequel of ‘Planetarian: Hoshi no Yume’, there is no actual enforced watching sequence. However, it is recommended to watch this prequel first. If you have watched the sequels, it is still worth watching this anime.

This OVA shows some past stories of Yumemi-chan and other Planetarium staff. Its plot is insipid, but comfortable and satisfying. It granted an experience of ordinary simple tiny happiness. This happy style (probably) will be liked by everyone.

It improved the reasonability of the characters’ later behavior significantly. It will be easier to understand the characters’ later activities, if this prequel is firstly ... watched.

Watch the complete series, you will cry!!!
