Kowarekake no Orgel (Movie)

I didn't expect much from this besides being a cute loli-robot doing cute things, what i found out was something much more emotional depth to it. A Story of two persons, one being the main character which due to circumstance face his own problem - and with the robot being left for the junkyard. This "movie" is only 30 min long, yet they managed to put in a lot of difference feelings into it, scratching both the joy of life, and the sadness of it...

Flower which our MC named the robot, sure brings the sun to the anime, doing the things we all excepted her ... to in a "child-like-wonder" - full of cuteness! Pure loli content 10/10 haha. While Keiichirou (our MC) acts in manner of the "cool-laid-back" type, but behind it all are scares from the past. Both has depth and feel real.

The Art, Pacing, and Storytelling is a 10/10 - There is a lot of fluidity and the animation looks very good, almost as the movie was thought to be twice as long, but decided to cut half of the ​"dead animation".

This anime is short, and its weakest aspect, since I want more if it! But by this I mean, there wasn't a lot of time to really to get to know the character for whom they are, and to let them grow together. Even so, i think they manage to tide all this together in a good way and the ending was kind of bitter sweet.

Overall the story was very good and I found a lot of enjoyment watching this.

9/10

Watch it!

THE most touching anime I've ever seen. I first discovered it almost a decade ago, and recently re-encountered it on YouTube. It's power comes essentially from the contrast between the lil robot's fragility, known from the beginning, and her clearly parental feeling for the male character. (Note the generic name given for these robots in the anime sub.)

The terrible fact that we and all our loved ones are going to die makes all of us humans, even the young who are the main watchers of anime, carry a hidden wellspring of sorrow at that fact of inevitable loss, whether past, of our parents, or future ... of our later loved ones. This wellspring in expertly tapped in this short anime. And so is the love that we all have a capacity to feel.

A great little piece of animation about tragedy and the power of the human spirit to persevere in the face of it. When young adult Keichiro is left orphaned due to a past family accident, he leads a lonely existence devoid of much company. But his world is shaken up when he finds an older model helper android named Flower and proceeds to take her home. Finding out the little android girl is obsolete and broken he intends to dispose of it, but when she reactivates and starts housekeeping for him and offering him a sense of companionship/friendship, he begins to feel inspired to live ... again. But the spectre of Flower's obsolescence soon threatens to take away his newfound sense of purpose in life with even more heartbreak & tragedy. NOTE: The Movie version offers a couple small scene extensions with a scene at a village shop, and Flower discovering Keichiro's media computer/song while cleaning the house in another scene. Taken with the attached Special, the movie feels like a solid little window into Flower's time with Keichiro. Definitely a well produced piece from the people at POP, would be nice if it adapted more of the ongoing Manga stories, but it's a nice one-shot OVA.
