Review of Anohana: The Flower We Saw That Day
''I was told this anime is super duper touching, be prepared to cry like a baby, it's way more stunning than Clannad''. I believe majority of you have heard these coming out from your friends or you have read these comments in forums etc. I started watching this with loads of expectations, of course and a box of stiff tissue for drying my tears whenever necessary. I am trying very hard to be objective while watching, and when I am typing my review here. First of all, everyone's 'crying point' in different, though we are in the same anime world but in reality we arefrom various cultural, education background and had different experiences. There must be something that is able to attack to the most fragile part of our heart, sometimes family, sometimes friends. That's why I say, everyone had a different 'crying point', like water boils at different boiling point under various pressure. Once your tears 'boiled', it's hard to calm yourself down, and suddenly this anime become magical because it successfully drags your emotion to the highest point. A bit off topic, I am trying to say, this anime is about a group of kids and the complicated romantic relationships between them, I do only appreciate the music and art that give credits in manipulating audience's emotions, the story line itself is a no.
