    This was a feast for the eyes and therapy for the heart. Visually, I was blown away by the detail. The fire. Every time a candle or a lamp or a campfire appeared in this series I was nearly brought to tears. But I was probably already in tears. Because the emotion in this anime was so intense and so well done. 

    I loved the ambiguous setting—the futuristic robotics combined with old typewriters and black-and-white photography. Mixed styles of dress from various time periods. Nods to different world wars and different countries and different players. It was so beautiful.

    This is just the most creative and endearing way to talk about puberty and all of the crazy feelings that go along with it. It’s super relatable and, just, nice. I wish I had had this movie while I was growing up. I don’t know why, but I started crying when 4-Town came on stage and the girls all burst into tears??? Hahahaha I think it was an overwhelming wave of nostalgia from when I was that age and boy crazy. Oh, and I loved all the anime references.

    This movie was so good it retroactively made the first one better.
