Music wise, there's not much to boast about since the music is more prominent before and after the movie but to make up to it, both lead characters sings through the duration of the film that I could say it's good enough as a sound track. The movie's motif on music is more on the sound of everyday surroundings because it is a vital element for the whole film.
The plot line is slow and yet everything is in it. Since I'm a sucker for good endings, this hits the spot. Okada Junichi is one hell of an actor if he wanted to be one. He's cute, sassy and has that great smile. While Kumiko Aso is a dead ringer look alike for Arakagai Yui! (That is, if you place the Camera farther away to keep her profile to not focus enough on her face. lolz) Then again that's not the sole reason why I like her. Her acting is pretty good and her voice, its so cute when she sings and hums to herself.
Over all the movie has lots to offer. What I liked most about the film was how they started the story from a simple coincidence to an awesome ending.

A warm romance
Such a warm warm story. A friend recommended it to me and I couldnt stop myself from watching it.This is the kind of story that could almost be categorized as a Slow film. Nothing much happens here if you ask me plot wise.
Plot: the plot isn't anything out of the ordinary, however what really clinches the deal and sets it apart is the fact that this is a film that is devoted and really committed in understanding its characters. it is not a film that meets your expectations from a romantic comedy. its just different in the way it approaches romance. Taking it slow, it takes that phrase literally., There are no jumping out of the bushes, Screaming characters, crazy reveals or anything of the sort here.
The storyline is simple and has often been seen so many times before but this film takes it premise and then adds warm gentle heartbeats, sounds of the river, the sea into them. It Infuses simple, ordinary moments with a kind of rare beauty.
Acting: the acting was just so realistic. One could see the growth of these characters for another 2 hours according to me. Everyone is having a kind of crisis in this film but it isn't articulated through usual cinematic aesthetics. Instead one sees pain rarely articulated but instead so many other emotions can be seen on the face of these characters. The director makes us Care for its characters. That's a talent people rarely have.
Music: THIS IS AN AURAL DELIGHT. The music you will find here, you wont find anywhere else. Why? Because its literally ASMR. The film focuses hugely on your aural sensibilities. Its gets better when you close your eyes.
Rewatch value: Could watch it a thousand more times with my friends. Perfect for DATENIGHT.
