Bokura no Nanokakan Sensou (Seven Days War)

Mamoru Suzuhara is an introverted high school student who spends his free time reading up on modern warfare. Upon discovering that his crush, Aya Chiyono, is reluctantly moving away with her family next week, he musters enough courage to ask her to run away with him. Consequently, Mamoru, Aya, and four of their fellow classmates set out and camp in the abandoned Satomi Coal Factory. After enjoying themselves during their first day there, they come to the surprising conclusion that they may not be alone in the factory.

Bokura no Nanokakan Sensou, based on the novel of the same name, is a coming-of-age story about an act of rebellion that evolves into a full-out war against the adults. Meanwhile, the children struggle to open up about their feelings and protect what they hold dear.

I don't write reviews often, but I feel like this film needs one.

I watch so much anime (tv and films) that it's not often I get into a film and have it surprise me multiple times in a row. For one, the description really doesn't tell you anything about the film much besides that the run away for 7 days.

Another thing is the characters all seem like stereotypes of anime that we know (and love) but they become so much more real and deep than that as the film progresses. Multiple issues are tackled as well: home life, social life, ethnicity, sexuality, love, ...

Spoiler free article: A short description that’s just a bit longer than normal synopsis to give you rough idea what to expect from this anime. Conclusion for TL;DR at the end of the articles.

My Score: 3/10 (Bad anime)
Reading time: 2 minutes read

Review:

The story premises are some normal stuffs that happened everyday everywhere amplified tens if not hundreds times more…or so was the plan. The story filled with satire in the half latter of the show, which have the potential to be good, but unfortunately it’s too late. It’s introduced a bit too late into the show and therefore they need to compressed it to how ... many minutes left in the movie, and therefore I feel it’s a bit rushed, although I get the message, I only get the gist of it instead of a clear message. The various action scenes throughout the shows emphasized itself to be as realistic as possible while actually it’s totally wrong and unrealistic (oh, the irony). Many plot holes are presented in this anime, and the main thing that I feel like everyone should know is that there’s lack of (if there’s even any) consequences ever happened to anyone in this show, which once again goes against the realistic approach this anime take…

The visuals might be the only one worth praising from this movie, especially the background, the building, the machinery, everything were of high quality and they maintained such standard throughout the whole movie. The same can’t be said for the character designs though, it’s generic of average quality, and they do drop their quality from time to time, I wonder how the consistency can differ this much when everything except the characters maintained consistent quality. The animation are okay, it’s fluid with a bit note here and there due to unrealistic physics, but since most of this small errors are wrapped during the action scenes, I doubt most of the viewers will even notice it.

The musics are something, for real, it’s just unfortunately in a bad way, the build up in some scenes are great, the visuals looked way better in this specific scenes, and then by the time it should hit me the hardest, the songs throw some empty punch to my face, it’s so disappointing, it’s dragging this show even more with every songs it introduced. The sound effects are the competitor for the worst part of this anime, one of the many examples I can throw is this: how would you imagine the sound of a group walking through a big empty abandoned coal mine? The sound effect for this exact scenario could be everything, but definitely not the one in this movie, many more examples spread throughout this anime that I’m just not bothered to list every single one of them. The seiyuu? Generic and bland are all I can say, they’re not that bad per se, but definitely need more training to not sounds like a soulless robot.

Conclusion:

Reasons to watch:
-A short movie where you need to turn off your brain

Reasons NOT to watch:
-A confusing story that might taken the wrong way due to the satire
-A show that tried so hard to be realistic but it became so unrealistic
-Plot holes everywhere!
-An underwhelming inconsistent visuals
