Beyond the clouds blah blah blah

Trying to resist spamming Mio's images here...

Just finished watching this show. The visuals are pretty, but the plot... not too bad, but the climax was weak and very cliche. Storyline was relatively simple enough, and throughout the middle of it, very depressing, but overall, it was an enjoyable experience. Oh yes, some of the music, like the violin part played by Sayuri and Hiroki later was nice, and the ending was nice too. The voice for Sayuri is pretty sweet too, great for movie-style show. One lacking part was we never got to see what the enemy was doing ultimately, and hence tension was kind of lacking. Only depression.

But I quite like it.

i didn't finish the show after 2 attempts. Byousoku as well.

Hoshi no Koe was the only Shinkai makoto show that i managed to watch from start to finish. Thrice in fact. Maybe cos its only 20 min long.
