Earlier today I wrote a review on this great anime at MyAnimeList.
This are some of those stories that have it all, from character development to realism to also fantasy but also slice of life. The characters are so mature. There are many twists and also re-interpretation of whats going on. Keep the viewer how will all the things will unravel. The dialog is also quite good just like the anime. At the end there is a whole emotional connections and roller coaster of emptions until the end, while keep guessing what will the characters do or decide in the end.
This story would have been great on a live action and I think this could be done on many time periods so a reboot several years will still hold.
If you like drama and stories that are based more on real life characters. This is the movie for you. And even if this really takes place at the end of the anime, is not required to have watch it to be able to enjoy it.
