This is one of my favorite anime works of all time. I love everything about it - from the wounderful heart-melting indie rock soundtrack courtesy of The Pillows, to the overarching themes of becoming an adult and experiencing the world around you, to the amazing animation that oozes talent and creativity. It is a perfect work of art. I reckon that those for whom the presented themes are not relevant may not be into it as much, but you should take it for a spin regardless. It's a short and bittersweet experience for the ages. Watch it.
