•Interesting premise
•Terrible translation
•Super fast-paced w/plot that's stripped thin
•No atmosphere or environment building
•Monotonous characters
•Flippant sci-fi elements
•Overall, painfully disappointing
•2.25/5

TobeyTheScavengerMonk Bummer. I love the movie. 7y
BiblioNyan @TobeyTheScavengerMonk The film basically fixes everything that's wrong with this book. Also, Mamoru Hosoda is a genius. The book, however, was a colossal disappointment. ☹️ 7y
Chelsibno One of those rare instances where the film adaptation is actually better than the book. 7y

Starting this today!! I've not seen the anime film for it, but after finishing the book, I plan on remedying that ASAP!

BiblioNyan @WOCreads Thanks, Bina! It's good so far. Intriguing premise. 😊 7y
Utopiyll Oh woah I didn't even realise there was a book for this anime! Pleasantly surprised! 7y
BiblioNyan @Utopiyll Yep. The anime is an adaptation of the book, which was written in the 60s. 7y
