Hard to rate without subs and no physical characters to base a guess of the meaning of their narration on, but enjoyable nonetheless. Based on the visuals alone I'd rate it high, must be a great watch on a big screen.

Obviously helps if you've seen Night on the Galactic Railroad (or read the book).

I liked this as an animation, but not as a movie, as much. Really great animation, masterful music (SO BEAUTIFUL OK) and it's a good story too. But as a movie, it does not have any character development (lol) or a moving plot because most of it was imagery and scenery.

Anyway, beautiful stuff. I read the book before the movie, so I kind of understood it better.

A bit disappointed that they skipped my favourite chapter (From the New World) and others...But oh well.

I'm gonna watch the other Milky adaption (1hr45min) soon.

No one's gonna translate this? I'd prefer not to watch without subs

How?How can a movie where I don't understand most of it(I've read the book long ago but without subs it was...ergh) bring up such emotions.
I guess this is why I love animation,it can "speak to you" through the visuals and sound with artistic beauty.While you maybe won't understand it,you'll feel it.
Beautiful movie for dreamers,makes me feel at ease.

Unironically this made me feel sleepy from boredom.

5/10 overall. Animation was poor by 2006 standards, music was okay; story was alright, with a better pacing than the 1985 movie but I feel the former being better as an anime in general. Sure, this was a nice approach to the story, which some people might find this good, but I am not one of them.



Also these look like this was made in 1998 and not in 2006
