this movie was soo much fun to watch! it made me want to go to okinawa for a nice vacation at hotel hibiscus. it's a light and entertaining film about s not so normal family and the main focus is on the character of Mieko, the youngest daughter of the family. she is a wild, crazy, cute, funny and adorable child. following her you get to experience her summer holidays with her and you can feel okinawan lifestyle. the movie is separated into different parts, each having a title of their own, showing different episodes of Mieko's summer adventures. I loved the film so much, because of the main character Mieko, the mostly funny songs(for example the Hotel Hibiscus family song)and the wonderful feeling of going back to childhood. even though I'm not that old yet;D but it's a nice story to remind you that there were many mysteries and adventures when you were a child. it also reminded me of the anime-movie 'Tonari no Totoro', so if you liked that or are a fan of Ghibli you will like this movie too!
