Drawing Closer
my love for sappy romances will forever be the one who conquers because even if i've cried for thousands of times just because of movies like this, still it is just so worth it! this is quite the best romance movie i've ever watched, truly a masterpiece in writing, and how the scenes perfectly compliment each other. there was no time where i thought about a question in my head that wasn't answered in this movie because even the little things that you observe in the scenes, makes you have all the answers that there can be.
it may not be the typical romantic comedy combination most people enjoy, but there is just something so exquisite about watching romances so pure that they didn't even need to say "i love you" to each other verbally for them to know that they do.
it isn't a genre unfamiliar to the japanese media but the way they portrayed it shuns new light unto these movies. most movies with plots like this i'll say ends with a sad ending, but wow how beautiful the ending of this movie is. it hurts, yes obviously, i legit cried for about 30 minutes straight towards the ending but even so i consider it having more of a happy ending than a sad one.
this reminds me that ill-fated love can still also be comforting and heavenly, not everything about death or who it affects can stop beautiful things to flourish to those near to it, just enough that destiny is the one who makes its way to make it less painful. it hurts when one person in the relationship experience it but even more heart-wrenching when both leads do at the same time.
pure true love is just so alluring to watch, so fascinating that even if the worlds takes all the time that you have left, love will always find you when you need it the most (☹️).
i agree with what haruna said because they are indeed made for each other, destined to be together, in life and even in death. this movie deserves 3 gerberas just like the way they loved each other.
