Synopsis

The aloof protagonist: a bookworm who is deeply detached from the world he resides in. He has no interest in others and is firmly convinced that nobody has any interest in him either. His story begins when he stumbles across a handwritten book, titled Living with Dying. He soon identifies it as a secret diary belonging to his popular, bubbly classmate Sakura Yamauchi. She then confides in him about the pancreatic disease she is suffering from and that her time left is finite. Only her family knows about her terminal illness; not even her best friends are aware. Despite this revelation, he shows zero sympathy for her plight, but caught in the waves of Sakura's persistent buoyancy, he eventually concedes to accompanying her for her remaining days.

As the pair of polar opposites interact, their connection strengthens, interweaving through their choices made with each passing day. Her apparent nonchalance and unpredictability disrupts the protagonist's impassive flow of life, gradually opening his heart as he discovers and embraces the true meaning of living.

A really strong anime, with an emotional story, amazing production value, and a fun movie to watch on a rainy day.

Those are the strong points about this film. It's hard not to give credit where credit is due. This movie is an amazing watch for both new fans and long time watchers.

A solid 9. I want to give this a solid 10, but it's pretty clear that this movie, as good as it looks, is nowhere as well made as something like Silent Voice, Your Name, or 5 centimeters. Which is hard to say, because I had to actually stop to consider just because a ...

This movie raises a thought of what you want to do and how you want to spend your life. This movie tells you the importance of time and the importance of the memories spent with our loved ones. It nicely portrayed the way a person puts effort to make a change in life because a sudden person who entered your life made you realise the value of that change in your life.

The emotion you get to feel about your loved ones going far away from you or leaving you alone in this world is something unique to everyone and can't be described in words. The ...

Tackling the reality that people actually die in real life can be an interesting focus, considering that all of this could happen to literally anyone at any time. Stories revolving the realization and process of death should be very moving, at least to those who have never experienced this type of thing and to those who have an affinity for these type of shows which should be cathartic.

I am of the latter persuasion and dealing with grief is definitely my wheelhouse. You might even say I have an unhealthy obsession with it. Unfortunately this 2 hour forced cliché dumster fire is neither cathartic nor pleasant; ... if you're interested in viewing themes of coming to terms with death executed masterfully in an anime I would suggest viewing Grave of the Fireflies, the series Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 or Magical Shopping Arcade Abenoboshi, not this movie.

NGL, 5 minutes into this and my eyes were already rolling out of my head. Predictable generic mediocre overplayed sobstory: The movie. This is literally Jarmush's 1991 Night on Earth, the Helsinki Cab.

I doubt an individual who is aware of how fragile human existence is can find this work enlightening or moving, much less feel a sudden ephiony over such work. I found it callow and unsophisticated as another one of those fantastical self-insert type of "entertainment" pieces of media serving only those who are proficiently unaware of how life works.

The characters felt one dimensional, leaving much to be desired. In multiple instances I found myself distanced; unable to immerse myself due to the inability to relate to them. They don't feel like authentic realistic people at all. The exchanges between the two feel more often than not, forced and unnatural.

At least in Your Lie In April they broaden the dialogue to include music, these two only talk about death (rigidly, like beating a dead horse) the entirety of the run time of their relationship and didn't feel like genuine conversations one would have. This is especially the case with the concept of the fear of death that was partially addressed at the hour and a half mark, the potential this movie had was utterly wasted and it doesn't seem to care.

Maybe if this was given a show format there could be time to expand and grow the characters and hopefully their interactions and dialogue could be handled better. As someone who's experienced someone ripped from their life by the clutches of violence, I found myself shaking my head with disdain over the "twist" its ensuing fallout and the process of moving on post credit scene. The movies forceful attempts to hammer home that I should empathize with these 2 cookie cutter protagonists left me empty. I never felt moved, sad, or even angry.

The themes of loss and the pursuit of closure when intermixed with a genre ie. sci-fi, romance, or fantasy when executed correctly; are one of the most powerful and beautiful ways to convey life. So it bothers me terribly when the industry reduces raw heartfelt emotions to cheap ploys and force feed me crying teenagers and cliche death throes.

I think this is why I'm super picky about watching certain things of this nature as well. I still haven't watched Death Parade, A Place Further Than The Universe and a handful of others because I'm banking on them to be bangers. So I save them for a day I know I'll probably need a good cathartic cry or a full free day to reflect on the media I consumed.

Not being faithful to the tragedies that befall the female leads is what infuriates me about these kinds of movies. It makes a mockery of people who have had difficult and tragic things happen to them and they're being used as plot points to tell an unfaithful rendition for the sake of 'entertainment' and its unflattering.

At least if they were truthful and honest in the depictions ( citing again Graveyard of Fireflies or HBOs Chernobyl as perfect examples ) or the character died before the start of the program and the work is just showing the fallout after. I would even buy the use of an improbable element at play like they were eaten by monsters or invisible xyz, I would be absolutely inclined to get behind it. But this...This is absurd misrepresentation and borderline pandering.
