About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a nostalgic, emotional anime romance with a supernatural “careful what you wish for” hook, similar in spirit to The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya; Not for you if you dislike teen angst or slower pacing.

Pros: intriguing wish premise; emotional summer mood; watchable animation | Cons: heavy teen angst; over-stretched story; less original feel
