Belle

Such a unique adaptation of Beauty and the Beast. The visual effects and animations are so beautiful; the whole movie is just so beautiful. I love how Shinobu trusted Suzu, how much he believed in her even when she couldn't believe in herself. I love how Suzu developed as a character, how she learned to be confident in herself and live on for her mother with the gifts (her love for music and kindness) she gave her. This movie did so much for me when I was younger during the COVID-19 pandemic times and fueled even more my love for singing. The lyrics of the songs are so touching and moving, but I wonder what happened with the two boys in the end. I wish they showed what else happened but the movie still ended beautifully.
