A sweet, short, and fun indie film. The lead character is the biggest attraction here, because the film itself looks like something that could've been shot in the late '90s. It has that early Hideaki Anno vibe. It's a little poppy, somewhat rough around the edges, but charming and relevant.
The film's only an hour long, but that's enough for this little quest. The presentation is basic, but the performances are fine, the characters are fun, and there are some quirky scenes that result in some larger-than-life moments. Fans of Japanese dramas will surely appreciate this one, others probably shouldn't bother.
