YESS! What a beautiful, emotional rollercoaster of a movie! It was realistic, and I really appreciated that, because you don't see realism in a BL movie very often. It deals with problems, pressures, and realities, which I feel that homosexuals often encounter in real life, due to societal "standards". It's brilliant to bring this into a movie! Especially with a country like Japan. This is such a breath of fresh air.
This is not a "fun" or "funny" movie. It deals with serious matters. But it's still hella worth a watch!
The acting was ALMOST flawless. The little girl played her role amazingly well. Nagisa's role was played well. But Shun was a complete bore, imo. Shun's personality is non-existent throughout this movie. It was difficult to connect with such a bland character. I feel like the person who really pulled the movie along was NOT the main couple, but the little girl.
Overall, a great movie from Japan!!
