HAL ANIME MOVIE REVIEW

 


HAL ANIME MOVIE REVIEW
-RYOTARO MAKIHARA
(MAY 18 2019)


Overall: 10

Plot: 10

Before watching it, I already have an idea that this movie will break my heart. Long ago, I've already read the manga version of it and as far as I know, it is only a one shot story. This movie is about a tragic teenage love, missing and longing for each other. The feeling of regret, misery, and pain because of the words left unsaid. It shows how one need to move forward despite everything that pulls him down. That even if all the part of your life is so mess up, there's still a reason not to give up. That you can still find happiness and joy. And you should still be grateful that you are still alive with so many chances to change for the better. 

Character: 10

There are few characters of the story. And among those few, only two characters stand out. Two characters that will show how one can die even if they are still breathing. The characters are created in an unfair world. Well, I guess the world is really unfair to begin with. The development of the character from the one who's barely breathing to the one who decide to step and move forward is satisfying. 

Sound and Animation: 10

How the animation was created looks like Ao Haru Ride. In short, it was great. Every parts of the movie, the background, the expression on the character's faces, the characters itself, is good. At most, when the characters are crying, you will also get into that mood and might as well cry. How the emotions are being displayed is really a plus. It was really heartbreaking when the main character broke into tears. The pain his face show, the crack in his voice, its terrible.

Enjoyment: 10

Since I've already read it before, I know that it will be a good watch. And there's a fact that I don't actually remember the whole plot of it. As a person who loves tragic stories, this one will be added on my top list. It's just a short anime, but it left a spot in my heart. Lesson, check. Heartache, check. Animation, check. Plot, check. It's a good deal. 

Ending: 10

The story ends in a shock. Like "Wait, what the fuck just happened?" expression. Since I can't remember the plot anymore, the ending made me speechless. I've really pressed the backward button to absorb what I've just watched. The twist in the ending is amazing. Not all stories will shatter the level of audience expectation and make a new higher one. It's really unexpected. And yes, it has a very good ending.

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIE 4 LAST GAME SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI When you thought that the story ends after the Winter Cup Tournament, this movie turns out to be the final phase of the story. Well, basketball does not end in one's country. After winning the game, there is no doubt that another player, much more talented, much more better, will go your way. During the movie, American Basketball Team, famous in the field of Basketball visited Japan. A point where all of the members of the Generations of Miracles, along with Kuroko and Kagami, will have to fight them comes. It is a very interesting and exciting movie since it will be the first time showing how they play as a real team. How they realize that there are players who can match up on their level, who can take them head on, that will trigger them to do more than what they are doing. And to depend on their teammates because basketball is a five player game and not one. Well, Kuroko did made them realize that fact. What I find k...

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY

KUROKO NO BASKET MOVIES 1 2 3 SUMMARY -TADATOSHI FUJIMAKI 1. Movie 1 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Kage to Hikari 2. Movie 2 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Namida no Saki e 3. Movie 3 Winter Cup Soushuuhen - Tobira no Mukou Movie one, two, and three is a summarize version of Season one, two, and three. Though unlike the Season one series where it tackles first the plays Seirin made in order to participate in the Winter Cup and Season 2 moving on to the tournament itself, the Movies focuses on the Winter Cup alone and show only a bit of introduction from the Season one series. The movies consist of the highlights and the outplays Team Seirin did in order to defeat every team with a Generation of Miracles member. It is a waste not to watch them but I decided not to. Not because it will be a waste of time but I know that watching it will make my memory jumble. Since I've watched each episodes of all three seasons, I already know how the story goes. But apart from that fact, every bit of extras, no...
