Why would a guy wait for one girl throughout his life and make his life sound like its over. overall a very boring film. good points.... good animation i think this film was a load of crap.. really! com’on its just about two kids that used to like eachother and and cant get together.

I can't believe the film is only just over an hour long...it covers SO much ground in the characters' lives. The sights visuals in this movie are indeed hyperrealistic, like an intense dream. Shinkai has a knack for creating extremely sad films, and one wonders if he'll ever do a comedy. It is also almost cruel in the emotional punishment it doles out to the characters, and the implacable forces that keep two people desperately in love so far apart for so long. This is one of most heartbreaking films, animated or not, I have ever experienced, and I am grateful that there is anime of such high quality that it can bring out such feelings we so rarely bring out into the open. Despite the simplicity of the plot, the feelings this film evokes are powerful and lasting. That feeling in your stomach, you know? Intense. And unlike hardly any other anime out there in terms of the amount of emotional punch it offers per second. I can't wait for the next Shinkai film. Just finished watching it.

Good to know I'm not the only one. You, dear sir, win the internet for noticing the Murakami-ish vibes the series gives. Good to know I’m not the only one.
