hey!
what do you guys think?
do you think the Anohana movie was better? or the series? or both?
there are no such things as miracles.
only the inevitable and the accidental, and what we do.

um have you not seen either of them?

Series is a prequel, while movie is like a retelling with more monologue and extra scenes. Don't watch the movie beforehand.

I liked the series so I'm biased to say that both were good.

I watched the series and cried. I didn't Clannad cry though. I'm hesitant to watch the movie just because it might destroy the locks I placed on my heart to protect my feels.

I wouldn't waste your time watching it. Watch episode 1-2. Skip to episode 11 for decent feels, miss almost nothing of value. Was a very dull series until the last ep or 2.

Lolwut. The feels wouldn't be the same if you skip 8 episodes. Why bother watching any episodes if you watch just 1, 2, 11.

Anohana the series was better than the movie, but both were good.

TBH normally I'd say this is very true.
In this series, I don't think I enjoyed watching most of each episode until the very last one or two.

I'd say they're about just as good as each other but you need to have seen the series to enjoy the movie.

It's a nice little companion movie though. Definitely miles better than that fucking Chuu2 recap movie.

The series is far more better the the movie I guess. It's not like the movie ain't good but if you are trying to watch only just the movie so you can save up some time please don't. You won't get the movie if you don't watch the series. For me I think the movie is for those who loved the series and want to watch it once again. It's kinda like a recap of the series.

The series, the movie was a recap. But HERE'S THE THING.

Like a lot of people(probably) I get on a roll after finishing a series, watching several related anime, so after crying my eyes out after AnoHana ep11, I watched the movie the next day and felt history repeat itself. Good refresher, but definitely didn't hit as hard as the series

An "actual good series" wouldn't bore your eyes out. Recommendation to not watch for any who value their time stands.

I guess it's boring if you have zero emotional intelligence and only enjoy shows with messiah wannabe protagonists and pointlessly drawn out shounen fights :)

Nope. It's boring for anyone who doesn't want to be bored. If you like snoozing, snoring or watching paint dry, knock yourself out...the show could probably even do that for you ;)
