Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Yazmin Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

Manila Meem First, to say,I wanted to give it a 10 star, but I am that kind of person who want an ending as the way I want it to be.So here I go,The story started with some castle stuff, so I thought "wohhh, same old snow white or Cinderella or whatever story may be the base of it", but thank God, this movie didn't waste my two hour! :vAnd those who said this series as a same old teen drama,"Guys!seriously?"(However, it doesn't mean that you hated something so I can't love it, right?) Dear June, I know it was hard to witness parent causing adultery in that age!Though you never knew what was going one.But I would like to take your father as the evil one.How dare was he to say something like that to his own daughter!(Let's not use any slang,okey?)....And your mother, Her tears didn't affect me at all, she deserved it, never mind!Here your world of silence was depicted as a dark world where you have unlimited words which were actually like knives! Trust me! I am like you in this sense! Whenever I open my mouth, here comes trouble! Well, I chose to be silent cause it was who I am!Lastly, to say, I got a huge crush on Takumi.I thought he would be a real guy for you!But the end of the day, he rejected you!So, he is out my list now! However, I can't blame him for this, as emotions are weird stuffs! One sided love are always hurtful, I wonder.Words are sometimes painful but keeping them inside are more hurtful.I know that.Yours, Manila.

Magsi Rover (magsirover) When I first saw the title, I have to admit that I had no expectations. Simply because I couldn't read Japanese. However, as a film- enthusiast I'm always the type who would want to venture and explore new films. At the moment, I don't have anything to compare this movie at all. It isn't because I haven't watched enough but rather because its the first kind of animation or story line that I've encountered to be told in such a way. I mean, despite the fairy-tale type introduction. The vibe of the story having a hint of psychological approach was there. Yet, it did not sound or feel grim at all. It felt realistic and true. While others may protest that there are no bad parents, I want to state that there really are. No one is perfect, and Parents are not an exception. There are people, heartless enough to blame there kids for their own faults. As a fan of Makoto Shinkai films, I am pleased to find another film maker and storyteller to root for from this point onward. I love the twist of the ending as well. If you don't pay attention of the story and feel like over running the movie with what you perceive you'd definitely miss out the biggest surprise of all. I say big because normally lead characters would often fall for each other. However, in this story. Both don't get their happy endings yet, there is that welcome resolve where you can root for them further. I'm rating this 9 because, I wish to see more. Then again, if I could be more true. It would be a perfect 10. Amazing use of classical music and play script.

krisztyxx Why the title the is bad parents? I think fact is the foundation, the starting point of the whole story. I never saw before a movie such a bad parents, like this one. The father blame his daughter about divorce. The mother be ashamed, because Jun can not speak."The neighbors talk about us".- she said during the story. Have a mother on earth who can do this his own child??? I doubt it, but... I open the question. I can not decided the parents really blame Jun about divorce or is just simply the fact when a child blame herself by the reason of the parents mistakes. The anime is a love story, but the anime built about this episode. Actually, I found the story boring, the movie is very slow. The sketches, the scenery are beautiful. The idea is also good, but the developing is slow and I could not get a rewarding answer in the end. Everybody find his right one, but what is the point? The characters are evolve, everybody taught something the end of the movie. That is a good point. I think this anime ideal for teens and the adults whose love this kind of love stories. Is it ideal for kids? Maybe? So if you like slow, fantasy, teens love stories, you probably like this one too.

rivracost I found the film very moving and very beautiful.The film beautifully displays the hardships of an adolescence in a broken family. The pain and blame that comes with divorce can be devastating. Throughout the movie the main character learns to cope with her trauma and grow as a person. It was very sweet and very creative. The animation is beautiful and the movie overall has a fairy tale-like quality although the story is a slice of life anime genre. The power of words and song ring through the movie.I enjoyed it very much.(Although I wrote that this review contains spoilers I tried to keep them to the absolute minimum so that it doesn't give anything away).
