Promising first half but went down the drain in the second half. We didn't even get the see the final performance.

Aoi's character and love relationship are poorly written such that the writer is trying to make us feel like there's something between her and Shinno but their relationship is just too shallow. This makes Aoi's crying at the end doesn't bring much impact.

Would've been better if she's cool about it and maybe takes Shinno's existence as a lesson for her future self. Like a reminiscent bittersweet sadness than the all out crying sadness.
Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative.

well...i liked it. like i get that its supernatural bc of teen Shinno alone but...the flying at the end threw me off guard.
i feel like this would benefit ALOT more if it was a 10-11 episode series because there are some areas that could expand (the friend hanging out with old Shinnosuke or some of young Shinno doing some callbacks to the past while he sits there bored out of his mind, etc etc)
either way i enjoyed it...didnt fall asleep to it like most movies. Tsugu has been my favorite character, one of the better support characters imo, in this along with his pop Michinko. 8/10

Is there even any way to view this as a viewer that can only understand English (sub or dub)? I've been scowering the internet and the few things I can find are in Japanese only.

This movie was very enjoyable, main 3 characters were pretty well done and the sky moment with the theme song was a great peak

Great Film.

I watched it right after watching '' The Anthem of Heart"

Solid 8/10

I know it isn't possible but I hoped that somehow Aoi would end up with Shinno. Nevermind that now. I heard that the Creator is known for Endings like this.

The sky truly is stupidly blue although I live in a country where its mostly gray because of the rainy clouds... Besides that it was a good movie with a satisfying end especially seeing that wedding picture at the end of Akane and Shinno (kinda wish it wasn't a montage though).

Loved the adorable relationship between Akane and Aoi. That kind of sisterly love really hit home. When Akane brushes right past Shinnosuke to hug Aoi instead hahaha.

I like that Shino was actually present and able to interact with everyone, rather than only appearing to Aoi. I'm pretty tired of the "only the MC can see and hear [insert supernatural thing]" trope.

That moment you realize you're Shinno's age and that it isn't too late. My life is just beginning! I WILL MAKE MY DREAMS COME TRUE!

holy shit that movie sucked. ending we didn't see much, aoi was a shit bitch character. Didn't see what happened fully in the relationship in the end with akane and shino and then the young shino just disappeared?
I give it a 5 but bumped it down to a 4 because the whole show made me feel old.

The first 2/3 of the movie was pretty good. Didn't really like the ending, the flying scene was very out of place. 7/10

I got most of what they showed me but I felt very little emotional attachment to the main couple, and in a story where basically everything revolves around them that's pretty tragic for me

This was a nice watch. There are a few complains but the only major one is Aoi's feelings toward Shino. They were shallow and unnecessary. I was all in for Aoi's romance but not with Shino and not like this. Apart from that, the movie was still pretty good and it had a happy ending so I am content with it.
If you enjoyed the time you wasted, then its not a waste of time.

It was ok. I liked Aoi x Shinno more than Akane x Shinnosuke. Akane is like a boring librarian girl. Chika best girl overall. That little boy was a real man with a plan.

I did like the climactic flying scene.

7/10

Wow! What an interesting story. 8/10
Well, it can't top anohana's tv series but it's still a decent watch.

The best part of this series would be the flying part with the song playing, but I don't know what the song was played, unfortunately.

P.S. The ending song was quite wonderful as well in both rhythm and lyrics.

It's not that I dislike this genre but... to add unnecessary fan services to/in/for heroines
and ultimately destroys her character and personality; their purity tarnished because of it,
is the only thing I hope to not happen to them. For that sole purity is my fan service.
