Well, it's official - Makoto Shinkai is now my comfort director. Only he could make something so conventional and arguably problematic so rich and compelling that those previous two things don't really even matter that much at the end of the day. Impossible (unfairly so, I realize) not to compare this to 𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘕𝘢𝘮𝘦. as this never really reaches those same emotional peaks, story/character complexities, the music's cornier and it doesn't look *as* good imo. But it reminds me of something like Miike's 𝘍𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘓𝘰𝘷𝘦 where even his lesser, more commercial works are still better than most other stuff available - I mean this is still one of the best looking and sounding movies on the planet which features a heap of continuous tear-draining emotional moments that are impossible to forget. Unlike many recent Disney outings - for example - which are guilty of comparable sins, this really, truly believes in itself and it's reverberated while viewing with a staggering force. Not ashamed to admit I loved nearly every second of it.
