This movie is quite special. Like many other Anime, movies in particular; there is a certain style and idea behind every scene and occurrence. Which obviously also applies to this movie. However, unlike many other Anime movies; it's so darn cute and cuddly. The movie isn't girly; and it has a few occurrences in between that aren't considered cute at all; but tend more towards sad.

But still, I can't help but say this movie was a cute one. A young boy striving forward. While not particularly being talented or smart; rather much more average. He goes into a different world to there fulfill his wish.

I give it a full score!! Indeed a very splendid anime movie I could day. It cover a little bit about the urge for someone to achieve something. It's just like when there's a will, theres a way. You would found it movie interesting if you like imagination, fantasy thingy.

The story is also touching, but would not probably make your tears come out I suppose. I would recommend this to everyone. You'll found it worthy giving this a try.

Recommendations

Both are about kids learning about life during an awesome adventure
Though Hunter x Hunter is a series of total 92 episodes (regarding the main TV and its OVAs as a single whole), and Brave Story is a less than 2 hour movie, they still have very close athmosphere and leave similar impression after watching.
The main character of Brave Story Wataru and the HxH antagonist Gon are both friendly, straight and a bit ingenuous boys. But both of them strive for finding and regaining something important, that is their family.
The similarity becomes more evident, if Brave Story is placed next to the HxH Greed Island arc. The characters send themselves into a different world, which turns out to look like a quest game, where they come across new allies and opponents, try their abilities and win a victory just because they are who they are. And as the prize for the winner they have their wish fulfiled.
(Although BS bears most similarity to the Hunter x Hunter G I OVA, i'd recommend to start watching HxH from the very first series).
