About this product

The feature film debut from Makoto Shinkai, the acclaimed director of Weathering With You and Your Name., is a haunting and beautiful story of friendship and loss, with stunning visuals and the emotional approach to science-fiction that would become the director's trademark. In an alternate post-war Japan, three teenagers become obsessed with a mysterious tower across the Union border, which reaches far into the sky. Hiroki and Takuya work on a makeshift airplane, which they promise their friend Sayuri they will use to visit the tower together someday, but she disappears before it is completed. Several years later, the tower suddenly activates, starting a phenomenon that threatens the world. And the young men now discover their long-lost friend Sayuri may hold the key to it all

    Romance and promises in a time of SCI FI WAR.

    An excellent and unusual SCI FI romance from the person who gave us the excellent "Your Name." If you are a fan of that movie, why not check out this great early work of his.

    A must see!!

    I was a little skeptical about getting this movie, but I'm glad I did!! Really good story. If you're only looking for action packed anime, then this is not for you.

    If you love anime stories this will work for you.

    If you enjoy Japanese Anime you will like this movie. A really different take on storytelling and a sweet relationship between two of the characters.

Kinmoza Pretty Days   - BLU-RAY

One of the best parts about being in a group of friends is that you usually have a couple of guardian angels watching over you. So, when Shinobu has to both write a script as well as make costumes for a play for the school festival, it doesn't take long for her classmates to realize that someone might have bitten off more than she can chew. Or write and sew, in this case. Fortunately for Shinobu's theatrical future, Alice, Yoko, and Aya are glad to pitch in, and that allows for a chance to reflect on their experiences in the days before Alice arrived. Will everything be finished in time, or will the audience be in stitches because of the ones coming apart onstage? There's no way to be sure until the last curtain call in KINMOZA PRETTY DAYS!
