Been waiting to watch this movie for a long time now, as I'm a big Kento fan. And I wasn't disappointed. I liked that it was refreshing unique, though there were some parts that were just too shoujo. But, at least, they kept it clean and they didn't add that manga vibe and overreaction that usually movies like this one have. The ending was okay and heart breaking, so be aware!! The story in general was cute and sweet, with not too many twists and a so so mystery. The performances were good. So, 7 out of 10.

As much as I love Yamazaki Kento, I think that he wasn't really suited for this cheerful, happy-go-lucky character. Rather than him, I think someone like Chiba Yudai would play this part better.

Other than that, I don't see many flaws. The story is quite different from the anime, but not more than expected. After all, it's pretty hard to copy a story exactly as is.

There's nothing wrong with the soundtrack, and I loved the fact that they added the OP song of the anime

too adorable for words

I can't even begin to describe the sheer amount of squeeing this movie brought on. So many reasons to love it, but the first and most important is the slightly nerdy performance of Kento Yamazaki as the ML. He's adorable with his quirky smile and his head full of unruly hair and his ferocious determination to befriend this girl who can't remember him one week from the next. It's neat that the story isn't necessarily a romance. I mean, I get that he's in love with her, but at the same time, friendship plays a really big role in the story. So the romance is almost easily missed, but that's okay because it's just so stinking ADORABLE. I wish I could just have "One Week Friends" set on repeat and do nothing else for an entire day! Anyway, if you haven't watched it, do! If there's one potential flaw it's that we don't really see a lot of what's being written in the exchange diary. I can live with that!

I must state first that I have not read the manga nor watched the anime before I watched the movie so I'd say it's understandable that you weren't fulfilled or satisfied if you have read the manga or watched the anime.

That being said...

This was honestly one of the best movies I have watched.
The story is heartbreaking. The acting is amazing. I just really enjoyed the movie!
Some may have a problem with the plot but honestly it's just that good.
Maybe I'm overhyping it a little bit but to me it is THAT good so it is definitely a must watch!

Normally when I watch japanese live actions or movies, I don't quite pay attention the OST, however the OST soundtracks for this film was great. I initially watched this because the main role acted in many other films that I've watched and he's a great actor. However, the storyline was interesting and the casting was nice. I cried once throughout this whole movie so it's not too emotional. It's a cute, short school story. I recommend you watching this and I haven't read the manga for this so that might be my next step.
