Kaedrin on Tokikake and Mimi o Sumaseba

In the double-feature post, Mark fingers me for a recommendation which I supposedly never give. In short, he liked them both, although his is a viewpoint of a movie connoisseur, rather than an anime one.

Despite Pete's recommendation, I found it to be very different from The Girl Who Leapt Through Time. While I thought that The Girl Who Leapt Through Time had great pacing and was able to balance between it's various disparate elements well, Whisper of the Heart doesn't really have great pacing... because it doesn't need to. As a story, it's much more seamless and doesn't require any sort of balancing act. Now, I do think it's a bit too long, but in the end, it's a wonderful story.

He is going to get showered with suggestions to watch Summer Wars now, with a smidge of EVA 2.22 fans or whatnot. Myself? Waiting for Gurren-Lagann dubbed.
