[Movie] Byousoku 5 Centimeter - Hanabira.Kage - 2011-04-24

Has anyone here watched this yet? I just did, and it's quite a heart-wrenching tale of star-crossed lovers. Though it really isn't as tragic as Romeo & Juliet, I found it to be very sad.

I don't want to spoil anything for you guys if you haven't watched it yet. It's just a little over an hour long, and is split into 3 episodes (the first two being about 25 minutes each and the third being 14).

In any case, it's a really good movie and I really recommend it. There's even a manga of it, though there have only been two chapters scanlated so far. Check it out.

If you have the chance too, check out Makoto Shinkai's other works. The Place Promised in Our Early Days is a work of art I tell ya.

I started watching it since it was short but i got bored 2/3rds of the way in.

Is this the 5 Centimeters per second?

I remember like 5 years ago or something back when stage 6 was still alive. The anime section for sw.net was b'awing so much over this movie. I wanted to watch it but then stage 6 shut down.

I do want to watch it though.

I'll eventually get around to watching "Kumo no Mukou, Yakusoku no Basho" (the one you mentioned).

Oh yeah, and I own the manga of "Hoshi no Koe". I was honestly surprised that the movies were written by the same guy. o.O

Not that "Hoshi no Koe" sucks; it's a great story. I just didn't expect the same guy to have written both of them. ._.

WTH, both ended up with sad endings. UGH. Write a happy story for once, Shinkai-sensei.

I feel really sad for Takaki. Frown

Yeah it is. You can watch it at animeseason.com as "Byousoku 5 Centimeter".

I thought the art style was really beautiful, but I didn't really like the story. Not surprising in hindsight; it's not the sort of anime I normally go for.

When something's available in English, using the JP title doesn't make you any cooler, bro.

And uh... 5 Centimeters Per Second happens to be my favorite movie, so...

I actually just watched The Place Promised last night. I did like it a lot, but I think they should have shown a bit more of the "past", since it would have made some of the scenes near the end more emotional.

That was not my intention. I simply believe that it is more proper to use the original name, rather than the translation (which has a slightly different meaning, by the way).

This movie is awesome, I can never hold up my tears in the ending song. It's incredibly sad but it's also a "good" ending.
