The concept of parallel worlds and different versions of love was honestly really interesting, and that’s what pulled me in. It had a lot of potential to be something emotional and memorable.
But for me, the story didn’t really land. It felt a bit overcomplicated and tried too hard to be smart instead of just telling a strong, simple story. Because of that, I couldn’t fully connect with the characters or their emotions.
Some moments were nice, but overall it felt just alright. Not bad, just not as impactful as it could have been. I think the writer kind of overcooked the idea.
Maybe it’s also because I’m getting older, but I’ve started to prefer stories that focus more on emotional depth rather than complex concepts.

It was rather evident that certain parts of this would appear repetitive, which will remain true no matter which film you decide to watch first, and it proves my point of the concept not being well-thought-out. It isn’t amusing to rewatch reused scenes, especially when they don’t provide additional context, and it’s an issue that should’ve been considered beforehand during the series composition. Understandably, it’s a bit more bearable than KimiAi as it contains marginally better bilateral communication, though the sci-fi elements attempt to muddle the narrative more than what’s necessary. It isn’t hard to follow per se, perhaps because I watched this second, but at times it contradicts itself more than it supports its idea of individuality. Virtually all of the production issues are anal…

This has to be one of the most interesting romance drama anime that there is out there.
To every you i loved before is a very interesting anime. It's not the typical romance drama anime as it incorporates some very interesting concepts about parallel universes and decision making. The really unique part is that its one of two interconnected movies that can be watched in any order (though i recommend watching this one first) Everything about this movie is so interesting and honestly really wholesome at times.
The Main characters (Kazune and Kuyomi) Are really well written and really easy to get attached to despite the anime's short run time. They are really likeable and really easy to emphasize with throughout the complications in the movie and the idea of "parallel" universes complicate…

I watched this first and I am mad. Why put spoilers in the movies. They put a recap of the other movie in this movie before I got to watch the second movie. I think no matter the order you watch the second movie will be boring. I would still watch the other movie (pink) first I think. The movies had they been without the spoliers may have been good but I will never know because they just screwed me. I really can't understand why they would do this. Anyways maybe other people found enjoyment but after watching this movie first the second movie was totally pointless.

I actually stumbled across this movie completely randomly while looking for time to kill without having heard anything beforehand and also only found out after it ended that there is a second movie which tells a different perspective of the same story. Therefore, I went into it with no expectations, and while I thought it was a good movie, I have to admit that it has some issues that keep it from being great.
The story is actually quite charming. It’s hard to explain in just a few words but for simplicities sake I will keep it brief. "Boku ga Aishita Subete no Kimi e" is about a boy and a girl who fall in love after the girl admits she’s from a parallel world where they are already a couple. From there, it turns into a story that mixes aspects of parallel universes, travelling across them…

A perfect idea was cold-bloodedly killed by a hideous realization
The idea of time shifting and the setting - 10/10.
Plot - 7/10. Ok, it can be a little more twisted. But here it turns out that 80% of the screen time we are given a kind of backstory. At least there are enough moral dilemmas and problems to ponder over.
Realization - 2/10. There is an unspoken rule in literature: “Don't tell, but show”. Anime, as a visual type of story, is designed to have most, if not ALL, of the story shown. But no, most of the story is told to us by the voiceover. “I decided, I went, I did.”
Characters - 0/10. Yes, they should be sympathized with and empathized with, but everything is so skimpy and flat that they come off as just boring.
Bottom line: the setting give a lot of room for an interesting…

A Unique Journey Through Love and Parallel Worlds: Boku ga Aishita Subete no Kimi e & Kimi wo Aishita Hitori no Boku e
Had the pleasure of experiencing two extraordinary anime movies during New Year’s Eve, "Boku ga Aishita Subete no Kimi e" (the blue movie) and its counterpart "Kimi wo Aishita Hitori no Boku e" (the red movie). People who love theories of love, romance, relationships and its complexity should watch this. Very underrated.
I chose the blue-to-red path. What was supposed to be the depressing-emotional route filled with more confusion. - though I didn’t feel confused at all despite the fact I was ½ drunk whilst watching both movies.
The anime introduces us to a world where parallel worlds are a routine phenomenon, and love transcends these dimensions. The concept of a diffe…

A peaceful life that can affect anyone, as well as its unexpected turns that can completely change it.
From the very beginning of the story to the end, every detail and stage is clearly and friendly presented.
The theme of love, devotion and the pursuit of happiness not of one's own but that of a loved one personally appealed to me very much in the character presented.
In addition, the division into two films, the plot of which is intertwined, is somewhat unusual, giving us the feeling of actually watching different possible events.
Yea, it's very similar to Steins Gate. I highly recommend watching it.

Well this movie is pretty solid, its not bad and not that good either, the word "pretty good" pretty much sums up the entire show.
This show is centered on parallel worlds and how people from another timeline or world line could somehow swap with themselves from another world line and stuff. Well the premise is pretty interesting and has a lot of potential but somehow I don't feel like they explored the topic enough.
Story: 7
Like I said before, the plot is pretty interesting but the execution is lacking, the way the story is told somehow feels rushed and lacks emotion, stuffs are happening all the time with very little explanation and confusing story telling that makes you question yourself on whether you understand the plot or not
Characrers: 6
The characters are very forgettable, wel…

I like this type of anime where the story unfolds slowly and you get the answers of the questions that you asked while watching. Also this anime is full of hidden clues.So try to remember every seen. Trust me, it will help you to fill the story & to better understand it.
The art style was very good, the character building was on point, the story telling is good. The science explanation was understandable.
Those who love science fiction & love romance anime with cute couple then this is the one.
But you need to watch the 2nd part(sequel) to understand it fully. Don't skip the 2nd part.

To every choice you make, there is a version of you that made a different one. An infinite number of you, meeting an infinite number of me. In every one of them, I will fall in love.
Thematically this is a beautifully romantic idea, but that is about the end of the good to this movie.
I will be judging this movie independently of its partner movie. As I feel this, if done correctly, could, should, have existed as its own version.
Now, when criticizing a medium, work, I believe it to be best practice to substantiate your claims with how you would do it, within the confines of the work itself.
The movie starts off on the wrong foot, in the first 5 minutes and 40 seconds you ruin the entire movie for being able to exist in a vacuum.
I'd cut it completely, it doesn't add anything to the m…

music was good; although, felt out of place at times the art is mediocre. nothing crazy good but also not really bad, it gets a pass. plot was interesting and the gimmick of the 2 movies' being connected was fun these movies easily had the potential to be anime movies' of the year, but the va's mostly delivered their lines in a monotone emotionless way. for the mc that makes sense but for the other charecters not as much. Ai, the mc's granddaughter is the only va performance that i felt actually placed some emotion behind their line delivery. Apart from one or two occasional scenes where the va's place a tad but ore effort into their lines, the performance on the va's killed the direction the movie could have gone in, i felt as if the va's did good, this pair of movies would easily be 9/10…

Because no matter what path, I’m still me.
Again I’m part of the population that watch To Me first. Now that I finished To Every You, I can confidently say that these two movies are literally Steins;Gate and Steins;Gate 0. The entirety of Stein;Gate 0 was to explain a tiny but pivotal moment in Steins;Gate towards the end. Similarly, To Every You is an expansion of a small montage in To Me that showed the life between Koyomi and Kizune.
However, To Every You overcompensated for To Me in almost every aspects. The story itself not only explained the ending of To Me, but also gave more meaning and shifted the focus of the story to Kizune as the real hero. Her love for Koyomi was present in every universe. I had a bigger understanding and sympathy for Kizune in To Me.
Also, To Me had litt…

wow what a concept! my faith in anime movies has been restored. although its a bit confusing but they wrapped it up nicely imo with the flashbacks and everything.
definitely need to watch one atleast to understand whats happening in da other although the scientific concepts they use like time shifting and concepts of parallel worlds time travelling all dat jazz sorta lost me at some points of the story like i dont even know whether i should say it had loopholes or not becuz its quite confusing and hard to follow at times but imo how they wrapped it up in da end was bhery nice for each movies so it doesnt matter which order you watch in which was da biggest USP of da movie as the story is well thought out kinda like a intertwined loop between two stories but at the same time i personally p…

My watch order -
*1st* - Boku ga Aishita Subete no Kimi e [ color- BLUE]
*2nd* - Kimi wo Aishita Hitori no Boku e [ colour - RED ]
ANIME FANS now a days watched anime movies where the main plot is only *ROMANCE* that's why this type of masterpiece went under noticed everytime 😔 . If you ever had watched *Steins Gate* or *Hello world* I bet you will enjoy these both movies, actually both of them are the same movies but from the different multiverse where the main protagonist make some different choices which changed the whole storyline also there is TIME TRAVEL & TRAVEL TO THE MULTIVERSE theme too.
Also it also depends on you which movie you watched first because the movie contains possibilities where you will have a different view according to your watch order. But personally I reco…

It was an ambitious concept of multiple ending, but felt average to me. I have seen both movies, this being the first.
I wouldn't consider this a "Happy ever after" ending, but it is technically a more positive ending.
The story for both movies differ in terms of love interest and which parent MC choose to stay with after they get divorced.
Story -
MC stays with mother, a normal citizen. MC goes to public school, falls in love with a smart girl. They played with the idea that both the guy and girl has actually switched places with their other selves multiple times in the movie, but both don't realize. It had a good start, playing with the idea of "What if" and choices. Makes the viewer actually think about how different life be if they made different choices, maybe they be happier, mayb…

Since I do not recommend this movie, I will keep this review short and concise without spoilers.
What I enjoyed:
- The premise: this movie centers around the concept of parallel worlds. It's not the most exciting considering how often shows with this theme occur but nevertheless, we get somewhat of an interesting plot out of it. The implementation of this theme presents some mindboggling ideas that really gets you thinking. Although this theme is bound to create plot holes, it's pretty much a given at this point that you are supposed to overlook them and enjoy the story.
What I did not enjoy:
- The story: there is an absent of a climax in this film. At least, the "climax" is not captivating enough which made the whole film feels boring and flat.
- The characters: mundane, overused tropes…

Short early review...
The animation feels dated, the story seems to be a bit all over the place, but it's not all negative.
The movie opens up with an intriguing start, which I thought would promise more of an interesting plot, though it's not that special.
I don't know what to really say without going into spoiler territory, but I do honestly think that it would be worth the watch as long as it's free. I myself paid 1900 yen to watch this and all I can say is that it was alright.
If you are very interested in parallel universes and paradigm shifts (which I am interested in myself, but this just didn't seem to work) I think it might be a hit for you.
But for me it felt slightly shallow, and I honestly don't know what else to say about it.
My apologies, I have now watched the first part…
