Amazing, touching movie

This film was such a pleasant surprise, I am so glad that I decided to give it a shot, it's been a while since I have been this touched, amazed, and inspired by a film.. I was hooked with the story from beginning to end and I loved the main characters so much, with Ryosuke Kamiki and Kasumi Arimura's excellently executed roles in Shin and Aoi, I find the writing nothing short of brilliant. That's saying a lot because it's rare for me to ever be so invested with film characters. It was a story well told and thankfully I didn't find any controversial moments that would have ruined the film for me. Everyone involved with this movie from the actors to the staff, all executed their respective roles perfectly.. I absolutely loved the soundtrack as well, it added such a beautiful touch and blended well with the scenes to convey the best emotional impact for the moment. The ending wrapped it all up perfectly, a solid conclusion to a beautiful story. This is a film that'll stay with me for a while, I think it will always be one of my top all time favorites from here on out. Go watch Fortuna's Eye :).
