I notice for me at least, it's difficult to find a movie that truly moves me. Yet this one, it was exceptional at doing just that. The music, storyline, silence, characters, and the visuals all come together to portray extremely powerful emotions. I love the concept and at first I was a bit skeptical about the whole time travel thing since I've seen it been done before in not the most convincing ways, but this was a key feature and added to the emotion and storyline in a beautiful way. There are many important themes found in this movie having to do with mental health, friendship, suicide, and hope. Too often I feel like many people don't acknowledge mental health enough, and that is also seen in movies at times. This one does a very good job of acknowledging that. I've been trying to find some more Japanese movies that I can truly like and feel connected to. I find that the ones based off of manga such as this one are usually very well done. I applaud the author of the original manga, the actors, and directors for making such a convincing and beautiful production. Please, if you are looking for a movie that will truly move you, please watch this.
