An excellent anime and genuinely surprised. A story of two different worlds that come together in a surprising manner, you really do get invested in Kumatetsu and Kyuta, and beautiful visuals. This is a rare anime but a proper one.

Pretty underwhelming experience. Generic characters and plot, the best part are some likable character traits and the resulting charming moments. I expected far more and better.

Another good movie from Hosoda but it needed to be longer. Certain aspects are left aside making it feel incomplete and slightly disjointed at times.

Saw this anime feature at Imagine Film Festival in Amsterdam. Really liked it, went together with some non-anime lovers, and they all enjoyed it for the most part. So I can really recommend it, wether you're into anime or not. // EDIT (2.5 years later): Their biggest complaint was that the ending was like... unrealistic by the way. OK, the whole movie is far from realistic (talking animals anyone?), but you know, like one moment shit _really_ hits the fan, and the next second everything is great again and the protagonist wins the battle. Like that.

This made my evening better, this was so good and heartwarming.
