---------------------------------Hinata no Aoshigure-----------------------------
Ok this short was aired on 2013 and I'm just doing the review now. I found this anime by a gif and I decided to check it out, and boy that was a good decision. This anime is really short, only 17 minutes long, so you can watch it on your free time. This was an enjoyable anime for just being 17 min long.
[ART & ANIMATION]
The art is really simple but at the same time it looks cute. I think the art design fits perfect with the story, giving a child look to a child story that puts it perfect. Also, the colors of the background help to transmit the feeling that at the moment the anime wanted to transmit, for example when the part was sad the background had dark colors, and with happy moments the background ha…

An 18 minute short. Such a small scale of time compared to the 24 hours in a day. And yet, there is so much Hinata no Aoshigure portrays in those 18 minutes.
The story is pretty straight - boy loves girl and chases after her. It's nothing special, but taking into account the short amount of time I was flabbergasted by how it was presented and it really distinguished itself from most daily life/harem anime - a 7.
Art is impeccable - the style is similar to that of Ghibli but with the colour contrasts of the great Makoto Shinkai. Just stunning, a 10. Voice acting was strong and bold despite how short the script is and the music fit perfectly with the setting. Another 10.
Characters were pretty cliché, awkward boy meets girl next-door, but the sentiments and aura of the characters were est…

Let's talk about growing up... Well, everybody has that impossible kind of love.
Althougt is a short history, can make you nostalgic about your childhood or, at least, take you to another place, were your heart can be open and the love can go in.
18 minutes, or less, can make some silly hearts cry, and wish that the destiny conspire against all lovers and childs!
The art is really pure e captivating, full of birds (whitch represents freedom) and rain (witch represents the bad days), in the ending, all the methapors will make sense...
I recommend! It's only 18 minutes! I'm sure, you will like it :D

I had never even expected to watch this, but I sure am glad that I did. I remember watching a short trailer for this a number of years ago but ended up forgetting about it until just yesterday. This little gem is from Hiroyasu Ishida, the same creator of "Fumiko no Kokuhaku," and given his impressive list of works "Hinata no Aoshigure" is sure to live up to the fantastical, magical worlds he transports viewers to.
The story is quite simple. Our young protagonist Hinata is an elementary school student with quite the overactive imagination, is very skilled in drawing, and is incredibly socially awkward. He befriends his classmate Shigure, and they slowly open up to each other in their fondness for birds. But of course, Shigure has to move away soon due to her father's work, and our bumblin…

"What happened." ~ Me at the end this short film.
I walked into this with high hopes and with the first act of the movie shaping up to be something amazing that soared even higher. Once the final arc of the short film kicked in I was speechless. I literally had no words to describe what was occurring on my screen. Well let me save this for the "enjoyment" section.
IT'S SHOWTIME
[PART 1: STORY]
We, the viewers, follow Hinata, I think, as he tries to confess his love to his crush, Shigure. It's simple but it works. I kind of was confused why the movie was switching from a grounded style to a metaphorical style like it was something to be proud of. I think it removes the realism the first half of the short film tries to portray. The ending is such a missed opportunity that if given this p…
