Anime Review

Its opening is well designed, featuring the characters in their past and present forms as well as hinting at their emotional problems. I liked this story. Well, the story wasn’t exactly out there but it was still very interesting and I was able to watch episode after episode eagerly. The cliffhanger endings were great and I’ve already rewatched the whole series.

Art

The art itself isn’t that outstanding. However, it accompanies the plot well. Every place in this anime becomes familiar during the show and we can relate them to certain events. The character’s personalities are outlined by their character design. The artwork is pretty colorful, which supports the overall theme of summer and gives off a comfortable feeling.

Anohona Main Cast

Sound

All the voice actors did a great job and I love the soundtrack. ‘Last Train Home’ song really gets you emotional. The voice actor who played Anaru did superbly! So much emotion! it was impressive.

I found many moments, even in the beginning when things were slower to be quite moving, and that emotional resonance rose with each episode. It was truly a beautiful experience, especially when the entire truth came out in the end. Overall, it was a great experience I would totally recommend this anime
