This was one of my favorites of the year in the one it came out. A beautiful story with an interesting main character that made me cheer for her, combined with absolutely astounding visuals. The latter especially helped drive this home.
I really feel this was an underrated Gem that didn't get a lot of attention due to being confined to the Amazon Prime service and thus, making it hard to see. But it truly became a favorite. And when I say the visuals were great? We're talking Shinkai great here. They were a true high point of a very good series. If there was any real downside, it was the music wasn't memorable in any way. But other than that? Very good.
