Character development with the side characters were very lacking and a lot of important details were stripped apart leaving a big hole in the story. With audiences who hasn't read the manga asking why some characters were even there. And the overall story was ultimately incomplete because of this. Unfortunately, the remaining characters were pretty much left out. Same with Shoko, though the film did leave out some specifics, the repercussions of Shoko's existence could be felt where one may even agree with Ueno who despised her.

The movie clearly delivered his character and it was very easy to sympathize and relate to the character. However, story/character development of Shoya was spot on.

Perhaps it was because of the limit of having to cram the story into a 2 hour film that the writers had to cut corners.

The story falls short, very short in terms of character/plot progression outside of the two main characters. That being said, this is no perfect movie. Not to say it wasn't a bad movie, but if you liked that one, you will certainly like this.īe prepared for a emotional roller coaster as the movie plays with your ever so weakening heart as the movie progresses. Even comparing to a similar anime film Anthem of the Heart, which surprisingly lacked the ability to really give me a tearful moment. However, much to my surprise, it has been a very, very long time since I have cried that much while watching a movie. not expecting much tears as I have pretty much dried up my emotional experience with this manga. Having read the manga 4 times over and crying every time, I went into the theater At Keisei Rosa10 in Chiba on September 17th. 8 - Definitely would watch again.įor those wondering how and where I watched this film, I watched in Japan. 10 - Tears, sadness, anger, happiness and laughs, the whole package. 7 - Side characters had their story severely cut. Nothing too special and memorable besides theme song. 10 - Characters true to their manga designs, high quality animation.

7 - Plot holes and cut sub-plots, excluded from the original script/manga.
