*spoiler alert* So the whole origin of this story was tatsuki fujimoto wanted to work with kyoto animation and when kyoto animation was attacked by a crazy man a few years ago he was so hurt he made this story to help him cope. Kyomoto is kyoto plus his name fujimoto. Even the guy who kills her said the same thing the guy who attacked kyoto animation said. "They stole his work." Which knowing that helps elevate and ground this story so much. And one more thing, the periods where there is no words is straight from the manga. I highly recommend you both read it because fujimotos talent for making mangas feel like movies is unparalleled
The scene where Fujino runs home in the rain after meeting Kyomoto for the first time was absolutely magical. So glad you guys caugjt this movie!
This film gave me major “Bakuman.” vibes at time which is a major plus because I loved that anime.
