Its definitely one of the most peak slice of life drama I have watched till now. Its about realizing your mistakes and forgiving your loved ones. CHARACTERS The story starts slowly trying to build its characters introducing us with an interesting character purapura. He is one of those characters who is just trying to do his job while maintaining a barrier with the protagonist. Then their are other characters hiroka and shoko. These two characters are shown totally opposite to each other with Hiroka being considered beautiful and shoko as ugly. Our protagonist in start as everyone else focuses more on Hiroka and tries to gain her attention while ignoring shoko. But shoko is shown as caring while Hiroka is shown as a gold digger. And both the characters works great in enhancing the story. Then comes makotos family in which u will specially hate his mother for what she has done but u will also empathize with her in the end. Then comes his brother who behaves like the most generic brother most of the people have cares for u but doesnt say anything and loves u deep down his heart but never show it. The last character which is saotomethe most innocent and the best character of all. The character who redeems makoto in the end and gives him a reason to live. Every characters arc ended in a really good way as makoto remembering why he committed suicide and moving forward with it Hiroka realizing his mistakes and same goes for makotos mother who also realized her mistakes. Purapura who found a friend in makoto but sadly it also has to the end and he had to return in his world. LESSONS I LEARNED 1. Suicide is never an option. This is the most common message you are gonna take from this movie. But it is the most important too. 2. Everyone doesnt want to be different. Makoto in the end have a monologue in which he says he wants to live a normal life he doesnt want to be different. He wants to go to collegemake friends have fun and nothing else. This is quite a message to take. Its obviously not for everyone but it just wants to tell that there are many who doesnt want to live a different life they just want to enjoy there day to day life and are happy in that. So we should respect their decision and doesnt treat them as aimless. 3. Your existence is defined by your loved ones. They are the ones who makes you who you are now. So always take care of them and respect them. There are chances that they will do mistakes but forgiving someone is really important though its hard too. OST Background music is really soothing and enhances the feelings of a scene. OVERALL Overall this movie is an amazing viewing experience. Sunrise did an amazing job with this. Im glad I took the time to watch it.
