Review of A Place Further Than The Universe

Why I gave this a 10/10!!! Because I love this series!! I cried, I laughed, I shared some pain, I related to it so well. Is because it deserves it! For an anime original to do this well is OBVIOUSLY hard thing to do. It was such a fantasy series. In my opinion this series not only was able to capture youth, struggles, and understanding oneself fantastically, the music and the concept was just amazingly done. Carefully thought out. Shirase was definitely the MVP in the last couple episodes. Whether you are old, young, active, or not. This series captures many people who always wantedto step outside their comfort zone and explore.

The character development was fantastic, you really see growth in all the characters. You watch as Mari change from being scared and not doing anything to exploring Antartica, and going out with Shirase, doing things she usually don't do. Living her youth. And then you have Yuzuki who doesn't trust in "friends" because of her past experience. Seeing that she opens up to Hinata, Shirase, and Mari and starts being more happy. You have Hinata, strong willed, not wanting to tell the other girls her feelings, she was a mystery until close to the end opening up to the rest of the girl about being betrayed by her so called friends in her old high school. THEN WE HAVE THE BEST GIRL Shirase the one who literally triggers them all to live life, to travel with her to Antartica. Not just that, we she her struggle, with people making fun of her, letting her down, saying she won't make it to Antartica, she even struggles internally knowing that her mother is gone. But she still wants to go there and see what her mother did. Seeing her change through out the whole series was WORTH IT!. The fact all these girls are able to contribute to each other, is amazingly done.

The story itself is intriguing, you have 4 girls who don't really know each other going to A PLACE FURTHER THAN THE UNIVERSE, for all different reasons. But one place remains the same.

The music of course was FANTASTIC too. The amazing execution of the music into the most important scenes was great, can't say much, I recommend going to listen to the songs!

Of course the Art was amazing!! The sceneries were awed! I personally have seen the aurora in person, I was awed and amazed as much as these girls was.

This probably a basic as hell thing to say, I've seen a lot of anime, never made an review until this one, and this one was definitely a great one. I recommend to watch it. OF COURSE everyone has their own taste and opinion. These are mine. :D

Enjoyment? If I could give it an outstanding series award, I would! 10/10
