Ano koro, kimi wo oikaketa

"You are the apple of my eye" Japanese version, felt like it was pointless.

Having not watched the other version, I can't really compare them. But, judging from other viewers, it was pretty similar to the original. In any case, what I liked about the movie was the feel good vibes, the youthful story and the performances. The characters were interesting, unique and funny. I enjoyed especially the leading character. That said, everyone did a great job with the performances.

However, when it came to the love story, that's when things got out of track. The movie kept promising to give something, but never did. It was like watching those two going in circles and never meeting. So, that was disappointing.

So, overall, six out of ten.
