Review of A Whisker Away
This is my first review so don't expect much. SPOILERS INCLUDED Art: The art for this anime is actually pretty good and isn't a pain in the ass to look at. It slightly reminded me of this other anime I watched called "Ano hi mita hana no namae wo bokutachi wa mada shiranai" or commonly known as "Anohana". Music: The music was a lil mediocre, but it was pretty chill and easy to digest. As long as anime music isn't as bad as Taylor Swift's music then I'm fine with it. Characters: The MC's in this movie were annoying. The girlMC 10x as pushy as Tooru from "Kobayashi-san chi no maid dragon" she literally centered herself around Hinode basically the majority of the film or maybe I'm just being too judgy. I generally enjoyed the side characters a little bit more, especially girl MC best friend for some reason.
Story: The story for this reminded me of this webtoon I read on Lezhin comics called Dallae. The story started getting confusing to me when they introduced "The other side", I ignored it though because I thought that it might make sense later on. Which it didn't. The ending was pretty bad in my opinion. When the cats had swooped in to save Muge and Hinode I was so confused on where they came from. And when Hinode and Muge had changed back to their human forms even though I coulda sworn that they had been turned into cats at the tree or whatever AND confessed their love I already had a pretty clear opinion on this movie. It's a disappointment.
They really could've executed this movie in such a better way than they actually did. This anime film is something that people either can love or hate. Anyways, if you're looking for something a little similar to this that's way better and less confusing you should check out Dallae on Lezhin comics if you don't mind the GL genre.
