Rated 5 out of 5 stars
an essential for the anime collection
Quite simply put, Mamoru Hosada's The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is one of the greatest anime films ever made. Without spoiling too much, it touches on all kinds of social issues from bullying to awareness of one's surroundings and the people in them. The main idea presented here, however, is that it is best in life to deal with one's problems as they come instead of running from them. This film is cute and fun in most places, but still remains harsh and biting in others. Truly a masterpiece. For the fan of Makoto Shinkai's work, The Girl Who Leapt Through Time is an excellent starting point for the exploration of the anime genre.
I really enjoyed this movie! The graphics were great, the story was interesting, and I enjoyed the characters. Only downfall is I had a lot of questions at the end. I felt like it ended without answering a lot of things.
