My review is certainly a bit lower than other reviews. Believe me, as someone who's read the manga, this movie is a huge disappointment (Sorry, Yamazaki Kento). I get the the movie tries to rush everything but there are so many scenes in the manga that is worth to be in the movie and the writer should not just pick out some random scenes that they think it will be worthwhile to watch. Throughout the movie, I cringed so hard and hoped to finish the movie soon so that I could reread the manga.

My bad for having a high expectations especially when Yamazaki Kento is one of my fav actors, and I do understand the audience's pain when they see him playing a similar character again and again, it's almost as if he is not a versatile actor can only act that type of personality ( a jerk, dumbass personality).

I gave the music a high score because of Back Number singing the OST (check out the band)! Lastly, the manga is so so much better and I would say not to bother yourself watching the movie and read the manga instead.

Time travel and time looping have always been a fantasy to us but what this movie has done is it shows a beautiful yet sad side of this type of genre that can make us yearn about the past that we wish to change, let alone changing someone's fate.

I have not seen much time travelling movies but I believe this movie does not fall in the 'cliche type of movie' as this movie shows a 'realistic' side of the unrealistic/fantasy topic, highlighting that we must embrace the truth as some truths can be unbearable or hurtful.

As for the casts, I know many have been rooting for Sakaguchi Kentaro to take up a lead role and he definitely did not disappoint his fans (according to some fandom websites). For a novice like Miwa, it might be too heavy for her to take up a lead role but since the movie is focused (not heavily) on music, the casting director(s) made a neat job casting her as she is a wonderful singer, loved by all. Also, I could sense Sakaguchi Kentaro is very helpful in guiding her, perhaps the entire movie.

All the songs that are sung and played in this movie are absolutely heaven and I'd love to know all the song titles. It's almost like a musical especially the last song really stands out as it suits the scene, or even the entire story-lines. It really shows that the producers/directors thoroughly chose songs that strongly and similarly depict the story-lines of the movie.

Overall, I am very satisfied of the movie and recommend it :) [I did cry at the end because why, how can you not :) ]
