Twelve Moments in Anime 2008 #1 – 5 Centemeters Per Second [Day 12]
Posted by: Cokematic in AnimeI absolutely love this film and can’t even begin t count the number of times I’ve rewatched it since my DVD arrived back in April. 5 Centemeters Per Second just crushes me, breaks my heart and at the end, I still feel satisfied, yet … not. This emotional rollercoaster probably marks the pinnacle of my anime fandom in 2008.
The reason is simple; I can relate (just like CCY). Long distance relationship? Try 12 hours time difference. That was when I first watched the movie. But alas, life goes on.
Of course this wouldn’t be the same without its absolutely amazing visuals and beautiful soundtrack (I swear, I had the OST on repeat for a month before my DVD came). My only regret? Not getting the special edition. Too bad I’m not fluent enough in moonspeak cause the set looks fabulous.
Thanks for reading! Marry Christmas and see you in 2009!

Yea, the movie is simply beautiful..
Not only that, the story is great as well, and so it the OST.
Makoto Shinkai is a genius!
God, I really loved that moive. I almost cried. Not to mention, the animation and art design was one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen. Only wish it was more conclusive T_T The single flaw in the entire thing. Better ending. Great topic! : D
