That wasn't too bad. The start was a bit strange but I think I'll give it a 7.

Tamaki sounded like Ichigo Mashimaro's Miu, which was nice. Not sure if it really was her though.

Don't think it was that bad but it's more meant for kids. Inariya is Ishida, Akira. Not sure about Tamaki.

Bad points=
Bad animation
Average art
Slow start

Good points=
Great message
Good ending
Interesting characters
Entertaining and cute

I guess it passes the basic requirements for a good 8/10.

Nice after school special type thing. I guess I can't hate on anime with a positive message. Definitely was not anything noteworthy or must see though.

6/10

A nice little story I suppose, but it wasn't anything special really.

6/10.

That was quite bad, I think. The story lacked any structure and the animation was sloppy.

Bad. Crappy storytelling, below average animation, bad directing. It doesn't matter what message they may have been trying to deliver, it's no excuse for bad everything really.

4/10, thou it can easily go 3/10 as well, and probably will over time if I feel like it.
If they were trying to make a ghibli feel they succeeded for a few seconds, which is why I'm going for a 4/10 at the moment.

Storyline had so much potential, but was brought out in a very poor way. Too much time was wasted in the tanuki platoon, when their contribution to the story was only at 2 instances. Also, there wasn't really an ending. It was very abrupt. If it had been an hour or more, I would probably have given a 7, or even an 8. But the rushed feeling I get really affected the quality of this anime.

They deliver the story very good I think, with off topic elements. And yes, animation would be so much better, but it wasn't so bad, too. Anyway, I don't like message themed shows very much, so I gave 8/10.

And at the end, Takane's mother should have taken a bicycle. I mean, if she doesn't take a bicycle just for 12 person, she would be a very penny pincher in my sight. >_>

7/10 from me. It was cute,but the end could've been better. I was expecting them to go home and stuff and resolve the situation. :3

@Sheepdude I know you posted this 16 years ago and you're dead now, but holy hell you were completely off on this one. 4/10, at best.
