This is a beautiful, simple movie. The animation is superb, the characters feel very real and relatable, and the script and voice acting is natural. Only sensitive people will understand and appreciate this movie's simplicity and beauty. It reminds me of both Boyhood and My Neighbor Totoro, where not much happens, there is no drama or issue to be resolved. It's just an experience. And a beautiful one at that.

Movie which can heal your mood? I advise this one.

Kids and teens will find it boring but it's one of the most beautiful Ghibli movies. The ending is unforgettable.

It was realistic and I'm sure most people found something relatable from those series of memories. But it got too boring at times and some stuff they talked about felt too insignificant even for the slice of life genre. I also think the ending wasn't very good. She got convinced so easily.

Nicely written and it was released on my birth year ❤. The simplicity is what makes this movie pull them heartstrings.
