Review of Hello World

Story: 8 Art: 7 Sound: 7 Character: 8 Enjoyment: 8 Overall: 8 Story: The idea of the main character going back to change his romance life isn't something new but it was made the movie interesting especially since it ISN'T a time travel but a rewrite of history for the history "book". Writing a happy ending for something that will never exist. The romantic aspect was sped up to the point that the audience don't get to really connect with the romantic plot that the story could have offer. BUT the plot twist was good for the main protagonist because if the audience gave it some thought they'll understand why thetwist and ending works out for the protagonist. It'll make a lot of sense too if one can conjure up a theory of what really happened.

Art: Oof, personally the cgi is a bit effy and I hate cgi animated anime but the art style isn't bad. It is watchable and doesn't hurt the eyes as much as other anime cgi. But it doesn't mean you can't notice the weird cgi at times. But that ending is slick as the comparison of going 3d to 2d makes a great touch of representing the fake and real world.

Sound: Not the best OST in the world since they could do more with different scenes but there is a scene that was empowered by the OST that I thought was great.

Character: Protagonist motives and character development is what makes THIS movie. Naomi adult version is willingly to do everything to see Ruri again while his young self is trying to understand the feeling that adult version had with Ruri. Their interaction is great to care for both of them despite the sudden moment that happens. Ruri isn't there for any development except as a plot device and romance. I don't necessarily hate her because she was sweet enough to care that she can live happy with Naomi.

Enjoyment: I think the concept was interestingly entertaining to watch even though the sped through the romance part. Still a better 2019 movie compare to another movie that came out that year. If you can connect and make theory, it'll make understanding the movie better.

Overall: I enjoy it. If I was able to wipe my memories to watch it again, I would. But watching a second time may not be for me since the plot twist is known. Honestly one of my favorite romantic anime movie of 2019. Would recommend it to a friend.
