🎉 Enjoyment - 10/10
All the elements combined resulted in the perfect mood and tone of the anime. It was quite difficult to say what I enjoyed the most since I enjoyed literally everything, or saying that I enjoyed every second of it. In addition to the sections above, I personally enjoyed the voice acting performance, which is pretty remarkable, consisting of such famous and top-tier voice actors and actresses together in a single anime. Overall, Sora yori mo Tooi Basho is one impressive, inspiring, and magnificent anime.
