This film isn't anything close to being a masterpiece like "Your Name", yet it is still an enjoyable film nonetheless.

The story of the film is "fantastical" as it combines both fantasy and reality together in (mostly) interesting ways. While the fantastical scenes are very fun to watch, have a surpisingly good level of detail, and do have deeper meanings to them, to me it was an obvious way for the studio to advertise itself and its animation capabilities which sort of ruins the feel of the film. Most of the story comes across as childishly simple and makes the movie come across as a "feel good" flick, there are a few good life messages and more complex parts of the story that the movie does get across if you look hard enough. As for the animation, it does have a good level of quality and depth to it, yet nothing completely outstanding by today's "masterpiece" standards (in fact, not even by "Akira" standards). Also, there are some very noticeable mistakes in both animation, editing and story flow in various areas of the movie; especially at the end with the stretched out running scenes. In conclusion, this film is incredibly plain in every way imaginable, yet the good kind of plain that we all need a dose of once in awhile.… Expand

I like the typically daydream aspect of it, a staple for many anime films. Its main theme, I'd say, would be identity. I liked that there's talk of apps and with the tablet present, it very much had the feel of being quite up to date. If anything its a bit science fiction, with a car (or motorbike?) creature that appears able to travel itself using a newly discovered form of sat nav, to the main characters delight. I liked the imagined land and while I got a bit lost in the details of what was going on, it was certainly entertaining. The real life situations were less interesting but the film is general was alright. A nice bit of imaginary fun, I suppose, as these films often are. I enjoyed it overall.… Expand
