Sometimes what we want isn't what we need

The class recluse and the new girl become unlikely partners and friends when they discover a tunnel with peculiar properties. As they experiment and learn more about the tunnel's ability to bend space and time to grant a person's wish, the more they learn about each other. Once they learn all they can about the tunnel, the pair also learn that one wishes for something that might cost them more than they should be willing to pay.This is a unique anime with an interesting premise. A grief-stricken boy trying to cope and a mysterious girl who is too shy to be her actual self work together to see if a time-bending wish-granting tunnel is an answer to their woes. The animation is stellar, with amazing visuals. The story is engaging, entertaining, and concise. The runtime is perfect; it tells the story at one hour and twenty-five minutes without bogging down the viewer with unnecessary filler information. This is an outstanding anime to stream for any and all anime fans.

Simple. Yet powerful

Do you have it? That precious thing lost in the fabric of time. That relationship, that person, that experience that you wish you could return to?So what would it take, what are you willing to pay, to go back and re live that moment?I think this is the main idea the anime attempt to crack. I like this line of thinking since it is something that everyone, EVERYONE, can relate to (we all have those memories we wish we could be part of again). But, it was not the case, at least not for him. The protagonist does not try to relive an experience, He wants to flee from the present into the past, to that same experience he yearns.Well, the hatred of the present actually blinded him of what he's going to loose, what he's giving up, and only when he payed the price he understand he should not have done at.I find that a really good message, no matter how bad you think your life is, there is always a point of light out there you should try to hold on to.The movie, I think, suggests a nice point of view on our life and the way we perceive it, It reminds me "About Time" but from a different angle.Although some stuff in the movie felt forced and not genuine (Sometimes it felt that things happened because the story dictated that, and not through natural line of cause and effect) I still enjoyed watching it, and I'm sure that you will too.

Not bland. But almost.

The interesting premise and beautiful atmospheric cinematography are sadly being held back by a distinct lack of strong emotional reactions from our protagonists.

Coming into this after watching "Your Lie in April", it's painfully obvious this movie just needed more CONTRAST: The constant somber tone and expressionless characters made me not care for anything that was happening - We don't get to see the characters struggle and suffer when they should, and we don't get to see them overjoyous when they should be either.

It's a shame, because the story, though predictable, was enjoyable to follow.
