Product Description

"A surging tsunami-crash of creativity and beauty that leaves you gulping for breath." – Robbie Collins, The Telegraph From Japan's cutting-edge STUDIO4°C (Tekkonkinkreet, MFKZ) and director Ayumu Watanabe, this stunningly beautiful adaptation of the prize-winning manga features a score from legendary composer Joe Hisaishi (Spirited Away). When Ruka was younger, she saw a ghost in the water at the aquarium where her dad worked. Now she feels drawn toward the aquarium and the two mysterious boys she meets there, Umi and Sora, who were raised by dugongs and hear the same strange calls from the sea as she does. As the kids get caught up in the mystery behind the sudden worldwide disappearance of the ocean's fish, they uncover cosmic connections that will change them forever.

I love this movie so much and i genuinely think its changed my way of thinking and perspective on life for the better. I first watched this when i had just turned 13 and was going through a difficult time in my life, so when i watched this movie it helped me gain some of my optimism back! i highly recommend this movie to people off all ages. both me and my mom adore this movie ( and also both cried to it) the animation and art in this movie are both inspiring and breathtaking. as someone who is trying to get better at art and looking to become a animator in the future the extras on the dvds are really nice to have as they show the process of both sketching and animating the characters and scenery. its been 2 years since i first watched the movie so being able to watch it was almost like watching it for the first time all over again. and i honestly think that people who think this movie is boring or uninteresting don't truly get the message of the movie at all. its a very deep and inspiring film that makes me understand the world and the universe more and what kind of role we play in it. so overall i think you can probably tell what my overall opinion on this movie is and what i might say to people who are thinking of buying it. do it and you wont regret it! ^^

You should watch it.

I found this movie through a tiktok and saw that it was on Netflix and decided to watch it which lead me to purchase a physical copy because I loved the movie so much.

It’s a very visual movie and it definitely doesn’t have a definite conclusion/ending. The ending and movie itself I think is a very personal perception. Lots of spiritual like stuff and also mysticism which I believe the creator of the story is known for.

The subtitles are nice although a bit big, the font is clear but kind of grainy. They’re readable though! The DVD case itself is very simple, just what it looks like on the preview with a simple DVD inside.

I cannot recall every watching such a metaphysical anime - indeed some parts were positively trippy. While the premise was intriguing and the visual were generally good, the film stumbled pretty badly with the story writing to connect all of the elements into a cohesive whole. It's definitely interesting enough to merit watching for free, but I'd have trouble recommending it for over $1.99 since it leaves you wanting so much more in terms of the plot and conclusion.

I want to start off by saying you should know that this film is not for the faint of heart. I'm not saying kids shouldn't watch it, but to really appreciate this movie I feel like a good understanding about life and past experiences will help to fill in the gaps with the somewhat free-falling plot. Some reviewers were saying it didn't make much sense, but to the right viewer, I feel like this will really hit home. Not to mention the visuals alone would be a good enough reason to watch this film. I can definitely recommend this to anyone even remotely interested.

I went into this movie with no prior knowledge at all, and the cosmic journey this movie takes you on is so much fun and visually pleasing. I could not stop gawking at the artwork, it felt like every frame was a masterpiece of animation. Personally, I felt like the story lost its way toward the end, but my eyes were glued to the tv screen for all one hour and fifty minutes. I would definitely recommend this to fans of animation, it is not to be missed.

It’s a crime that this film is already on sale. Recommended for all. Incredible rare experience. Don’t over analyze. Not your everyday storytelling routine. Beautiful music, beautiful visuals, amazing design, amazing story. Inspiring. Okay I’m done

After watching this movie, it was okay but kind of boring. So know the younger ones will not watch it thru. The older ones may be okay with it if they have nothing to do.

Reviewed in Germany on May 24, 2024
Ein wirklich schöner Film, der durch seinen merkwürdigen Zeichenstil aus dem Raster fällt.
Die FSK mit 6 Jahren finde ich nicht so wirklich stimmig aber verschrecken wird man hiermit kleine Kinder nicht, also alles nicht so tragisch.
Ich muss zugeben, dass wir uns den Film 2x angeschaut haben und nicht wirklich wissen, was der Sinn dahinter war, trotzdem hat uns der Film gefallen und bestimmt werden wir ihn uns auch noch ein drittes und viertes mal anschauen.
PS: Zuerst auf Prime geschaut, danach die DVD gekauft als sie im Angebot war.

Ein toller Anime-Film. Hab ihn schon auf dem Akiba Pass Festival gesehen. Schade, dass es die Mangas zum Film nicht in Deutschland gibt. Werde mir aber auf jeden Fall die englischen Bücher bestellen.
