Really sad to say I did not like this. There was real charm and energy at the start, and a few good bits here and there, but it was for the most part a horrendously superficial adaptation that didn't care for any of the interesting ideas presented in the game.

This is a movie of all time. I'm honestly surprised Kawamori didn't announce his retirement with this. It's definitely trash, but it's fantastic trash. I have to love a movie that gives 180% of itself at all times.

The scrappy spirit of artsy 00s anime shorts shoved into a nauseatingly conventional romance plot. I should hate this, and I understand people who do, but... it just worked for me. The fish girl is just too cute.
It is VERY stupid tho.

Somehow my first David Lynch movie. Impeccably shot fever dream about gay yearning and the corruption of dreams. I don't think everything worked for me, but more than enough of it did.

Stupid thematically incoherent mess of a movie I am very fond of. My opinion of it is basically unchanged from the first time I saw it. It's by no means good, but it is fun.

This is the best sports thing I've seen since Ping Pong the Animation. Intensely humane film about passion and obsession. Does lots of really cool things with the passage of time. Looks absolutely jaw-dropping, too. Rotoscoping fucking rocks when done well.
