Heartwarming and heartbreaking
A beautiful story of friendship between a dying girl and a lonely boy. The animation is lovely, Sakura is a charming character and it's great seeing their relationship develop. [Mild spoiler] Though the film gives you no illusion of what happens in the end, when it happens it's an utter gut punch, one which threatens to spoil the entire film, but it's handled with enough care that it works and ultimately adds to the emotional development shown throughout the film.Extras aren't too exciting but nice that there are some other than just trailers, and the disc comes with a cardboard sleeve which is always a nice extra.

The story gets better towards the end
This story is slow in the beginning, and sometimes a bit hard to understand (Why would Japanese 12th graders book a room at the Hilton?). But keep watching, there is a twist in the plot that will take you by surprise. The artwork is at times great (the fireworks, the 'still images' carry lots of information), but at times somewhat bland too, eg how the library is represented, so somewhat inconsistent.The movie offers some interesting insights in how the Japanese cope with death and mourning, and how they relate to one another, especially friendship and romantic involvement.Important hint: don't turn off your player when the credits start, because after that, there's a 3 minute conclusion that needs to be seen to fully understand the character development.

Top tier anime!
I spent absolutely ages trying to find this anime on blu-ray, there is something about it that always draws me back into wanting to watch it again and again. It honestly is worth the watch!

Life affirming
The usual beautiful Japanese animation coupled with a sad but uplifting story of a girl’s determination to enjoy her last summer and how it also brings a boy out of his self imposed shell leaving the viewer sad and happy. Top entertainment.

Arrived on time and in perfect condition.
I've seen this movie many times and it's amazing it was about time I bought it to have physically. If you are debating getting this then get it, you will be happy you did. Also this is a EU copy so Americans don't buy it.
