Story 1: Cherry Blossom

Man, fuck snow delays. All my homies hate snow delays. I'm so glad it doesn't snow where I live.

Honestly, most of it could have been avoided if he had just brought a phone with him. I mean he's travelling such long distances, shouldn't he carry a device to be able to contact someone? I'm presuming his parents and friends didn't know about this.

I really liked the ending of this story. Sometimes it doesn't end with a "lived happily thereafter" theme. Sometimes, you need to part ways, even if it's painful, you must endure it and move forward.

Kinda sad that both of them weren't able to give the letters to each other.

very great, in my experience, i cannot relate that much to the idea of moving to another city due to my parents having work, but i am familiar to the idea of losing a friend/lover and going from strangers, to strangers with memories
captivating story and i cant wait to see the rest

This movie is very unrealistic. 

Chapter 1 is based in 1995, so no internet, texting, chatting.  Just letters and phone calls for long distance.   The problem with this Chapter 1 is that they had known each other since they were little kids, and it is very difficult to impossible for a straight boy and a girl to be best friends, especially at that age. 


This Chapter also makes it seem like if the girl, who is a cute girl, is lonely with no friends.  She, with how cute she is, would have gotten tons of guys trying to be with her, giving her attention, having lots of female friends. 


And no way that two people their ages (elementary, middle school) would be writing letters over and over to each other.  After one letter, they would have stopped.  A person (regardless of age) would get tired and lose interest to keep interaction with a person (especially if its via letter) when you dont get to have physical contact with that person. 


Again, seems like they were friends and not a couple, so that makes it maintaining the writing of letters for YEARS to be IMPOSSIBLE


And no way that the female MC would have waited like 7 hours at the train station

Wow. The art is simply amazing. I've never seen something like this before, even though some shows do come close to this. Beautiful. The story seems interesting as well, it's Romance Drama after all. Looking forward to more.
