It seems the BD/DVD will be released on June 6th according to official site.

Wow, this looks pretty interesting. The art looks beautiful too. I think it could turn out to be a very good film, I'm looking forward to it.

Also, it premièred in Edinburgh, for some reason. Which is probably a good sign, when you think about it.

Wow, what I gathered from that trailer was completely different than the description on AniDB. I thought it was purely romance. Something along the lines of:

Guy with black hair and girl with short hair are childhood friends. The girl always gave the guy a hard time and pushed him around. As they get older she starts developing feeling for him. But, uh oh! The guy likes the girl with long black hair who just so happens to like the guy with silver hair. The girl with short hair is aware of his feelings for the girl with black hair and is jealous. She hides her feelings from the guy with black hair and is unsure how to confess her feelings or even if she should.

Not once did I get mind reading and manipulation to take over the school from that video. LOL. It looked like a good romance with lots of emotional moments.

Maybe the show is a combination of the AndiDB description and everything I was talking about. That could be awesome.

I can't wait for this to be subbed. It looks fantastic!

This is where you ask to identify an anime. Not in this section.

Renamed thread to be more helpful. You should update the first post to have some more information though.

GG released this, they made up their own title but whatever.

Now, can somebody please shed some light on what it all means?! I was mostly hypnotized by the graphics... Maybe I'll be able to figure it out at a later time.

There were a lot of major companies that dipped into the animation - SHAFT, AIC, Silver Link, P.A. Works, etc. Supercell did the entrance song, not sure if they did the ending (the ending song kinda sucked). I do not understand a lot of freaking shit that happened but if anything, my gut feeling tells me this is probably an intro movie to a series they're planning to do. The animation is breath-taking, seemless, fluid motion. The art and graphics are superb - almost as good as CoMix ... it rivals very well.

The story .. PLEASE ... someone explain it to me! Lol. Anyways, I hope a series unfolds out of this. I really liked this movie. It's all about being youth, love and magic. Ah yea, I did have one question:

So that dude with the white hair ... he died? He turned to crystal? No one can answer this.

I just watched this myself. It was pretty good - great animation - but I agree the story could have been explained better. I quite enjoyed it though.

I'm not sure what happened to him. I think he went back to the future, but if that's the case I'm not sure what Ken was trying to achieve when he vanished too. Yeah, now I think about it, that last bit doesn't make much sense at all, since it looked like everything ended up as it would have done if Ken hadn't done anything at all.

I guess it might be like many Japanese films in that you need to watch it several times before you can completely grasp what's happening. I'm sure there is a logical explanation for it all.

I also didn't get the feeling that they plan to make a series - I felt the film wrapped up very nicely, and very conclusively. But most of all, it simply felt to me like the story of a single film, rather than a longer narrative. With the way it was structured etc.

I just finished watching the movie. In response to your spoiler, I also shared the same question. For a second, this is what I think

(click to show/hide)

He (Ryou) turned into the echidna looking familiar - then into a the time flask? Did I miss something or did Kenji did say he will "redraw" him? The need for Kenji to go back in time - which I think what he did in the very end of the movie may be connected to his (supposingly?) death to some accident because apparently Nat travelled back in time to replace him (scenes where Nat is next to the bedridden Kenji in the void dimension thingie)

Can someone explain why this is not seeded on BakaBT yet? I have the GG version but I ain't no power user.

Just watched it last night. Was only going to watch a little bit. Yes! It's one of those! The kind you dare not turn off before it is done.

I can see why they used Claude Debussy's <<Clair de Lune>>. Having an impressionist piano piece works very well with the impressionist key animations.

After watching the movie, I had to google map where, seeing as how this was another anime where I recognized Enoshima. Is that the hot spot this year or what? Anyway, I found the park where they always meet up. How do I know? The railing in a semi-circle is there Osaki park, just east of Enoshima. One of these years I am going to have to do an otaku's pilgrimage across Japan to see all the places I saw in anime.
