Worst thing I've watched in a while. I don't know, I don't care, and I don't want to know or care. 5/10
There's definitely a Boy and there is definitely a Heron, I'll give it that. I'm already not the *biggest* fan of Ghibli films but I usually can respect them and see where they shine. I enjoy Spirited Away and Castle in the Sky quite a bit even. However, this just felt like a mess of a movie. So much random stuff going on and so much you just end up not caring about. The art is good and the soundtrack is nice, but that's really all you're getting. You can enjoy watching round white happy dudes holding hands and flying into the sky in Studio Ghibli fashion too. But man, this show really felt dry and now I need a whole lake to purify me.
