Great movie regardless of the sad ending! Giving a movie a bad rating because it is not your cup of tea is not a rating. I generally don't rate sad movies for that reason but I have to balance out the other rating because it really does a disservice to the movie.

Life is full of sadness as well as joy. The one thing that the Japanese do very well with sad movies is making you feel okay at the end regardless of the outcome. The acting in this movie was phenomenal. Erika Toda as Natsuki was my reason for watching and she didn't disappoint. This was my first Wakaba Ryuya experience and as Dalki, he was amazing as the autistic brother. Kato Kazuki as Sou, I'd seen once before in Hotari but didn't realize it until the end.

All genres are not for everyone but if you are a movie connoisseur who loves a good love story regardless of the ending, this is the movie for you. One thing I took away from watching this: whatever life has in store for you, live it to the fullest; don't give up and live for those around you who love you. That is the lesson Sou taught me and that is a reason to watch this. Excellent movie.

I'm going to be completely honest with this review. The cast and their acting was spectacular! Ryuya plays an autistic boy so well and it really gives authenticity to the story, Erika is an amazing actress and is so diverse in her acting styles and Kazuki is just perfection.

I enjoyed this movie until about halfway and from there the storyline just went downhill. The ending especially disappointed me due to its ambiguity and while it should have made the watcher feel the emotion of the characters, it was very difficult to sympathize with any of the characters which I will attribute to the story writing.

The music wasn't all that crash hot and could have been better however, it wasn't terrible.

I wouldn't rewatch this movie for the reason that the plotline wasn't all that original.

This wasn't a terrible movie and I encourage people to give it a chance ... it just wasn't my cup of tea.
