Im not a big fan of japanese movies. i usually dont watch it. but i happened to see this, and this was so great movie. at first, it seems quite strange to see the girl's reaction to him. and then, we can take it in with the later scene and story line. the more the story line flows, the more it is touching. i actually didnt like the ending but especially the story line was excellently great. you might feel it is one of the run of the mill japanese movie bcuz they have plenty of time traveling movies but its pretty prominent among those
