Must Watch Twice
Seven students who should be attending the same High School but for various reasons are not. They all enter a castle through their own glowing mirror and meet each other and the Wolf Queen. She is a younger girl wearing a wolf mask, an eighth student. The rules of the castle are explained and they are instructed to search for a key which will allow one of them their one true wish.
The story develops slowly. The seven become friends. They search the castle but find no key. However, there are hints that they miss. They use the castle as a refuge from reality.
At one point they chose to all meet up at school. However, even though they all go none of the others show up.
As the end of their allotted time (months) they search harder.
Near the end the rules are broken and all are sucked back into the castle. One girl solves the puzzle and finds the key. In getting her wish she is shown the troubles of all of the other students. She sees each of them going to the meeting spot at school. Exposing one thread that binds them all.
The second time you watch you will be able to see all of the clues. Hint: tea

Beautiful
Really enjoyed this movie! Every time I go in to Best Buy I always head to the movies section and will pick a few titles that seem interesting to me as well as a few titles that I already like to add to my collection. Of the movies I’ve never seen before, sometimes it can be a hit and miss with if they were worth the purchase, but that’s part of the fun when going and picking out a few new titles.
With this movie, from start to finish it was a joy to watch! I went in with no expectations but came out of it loving the movie and it has quickly become one of my repeat watches. The animation is beautiful, the characters too, and the ending had me tearing up (in a good way).

Unexpected and good Anime movie.
The description does not do the story justice. It turned out the "players" were interesting how they met and where they are from. Hard to say more without giving away the story. Video quality was decent, but could have been better. Audio was well done.
