Suki ni Naru Sono Shunkan wo. Kokuhaku Jikkou Iinkai

Story - 5 `The story started off good, but the fact they never had a romantic interaction ruined it. I mean, it's called "The moment you fall in love", so I guess it makes sense that its only that.` Art - 9 `The art was great. Not Kimi no na wa level, but something very visually appealing. (This assumes you were watching it in 1080p)` Sound - 7 `Decent. Gave mood to some scenes. I though the music during the middle of the movie out of place. I would of expected more of a sad song.` Character - 6`The characters were average. Shy girl meets fem-boy who changes. (Strongly reminds me of Blue Spring Ride)` Enjoyment - 7 `While it was enjoying to watch, I believe the ending spoiled it. I usually don't make reviews, but this movie forced me too.` Overall - 4 `There is only one word needed to describe this movie. Disappointing.`

I'll be honest, if I didn't know the songs beforehand, I would have totally disliked this movie. The story is... blank ? I mean, I know it's not that complicated but they could have at least added a little more depth. The art was pretty good, even though it was really average on some scenes. Well, as a lot of people already said, the OSTs were really good, totally a 10/10 for this one. The characters... Oh god where do I start. They made Arisa a totally dislikable character. Why in hell is she playing the bad girl in this ? She's supposed to be a sweet person whowill help others when they're in trouble and who likes to tease her friend, not someone who tries to flirt with Koyuki. Anyway, the other characters were pretty bland too, I'm pretty sad they didn't show the two other couples relationships develop either. As I said earlier, the story is really simple to start with, but what makes me love this series is seeing those characters develop, so yeah, if the movie can't show that, it's pretty sad. Overall, as I said, I would probably have disliked it if I didn't know the songs and story beforehand

Let me start by saying I watched this in cinema, and when it finished, the collective "that's it?" from the audience was audible; that's how disappointing it was. I am not exaggerating. Though I have not watched the previous movie in this series, from the official website it suggests this to be a standalone movie that you can enjoy regardless and has good reviews from people who did not watch the first one. So I went ahead to watch it. But honestly I think only the people who watched the first movie would have felt anything from it. The main problem here is that there was almostno time for one to build an attachment to the main characters and feel anything for anyone. If you are seeking the signature heart-wringing moments in a romance movie, turn back now. There is none to be had here. There are a few cute/funny scenes but beyond that this movie is bland. The entire movie is 65 minutes, and things progress fast. *very minor spoiler* The main characters go from first years at junior high to being in a high school in like 15 minutes. The timeskips are jarring. I got the feeling like the movie had a lack of budget and and scenes were aggressively cut for it. Of the two guys in the love triangle, one of them barely had any screentime, so you just knew who she was going to end up with. The characters and relationships are sorely underdeveloped. This movie is very low on substance and is entirely a promotional vehicle for HoneyWorks songs. If not here for the music, don't watch it.
