The title seems horrifying, but it actually is a romance depicting the love and relationships of high school students. The screen brims with a very Japanese mood of cherry blossoms, sweet music and colors. The title is a magical word a terminally ill girl mutters to overcome death. The plot wherein the main character looks back at a memory from 12 years before reminds us of Love Letter, and the story about naive high school students suffering from an incident involving matters of life and death recalls Your Name. This is a transmedia film, where the bestselling novel of the same name was adapted into a cartoon, and then readapted into a movie. After a boy who doesn't make any friends happens to pick up a popular girl's diary that details her fight against her illness, their relationship begins. After that, they continue their friendship and love secretly. Oguri Shun and Kitakawa Keiko play the adult roles of the main characters, putting the puzzle together, crossing the two axes of past and present. (Busan International Film Festival)

In the end, you have before you a completely ordinary film that is certainly not interesting in subject matter or portrayal. It's true that the three most important characters were well cast, but Oguri Shun is also almost always a safe bet, and the young actors tried really hard; Kitamura still has a ways to go, but Hamabe gave a very decent performance. The most interesting part of all this, though, is just its weird title. It's not a very memorable film, but it doesn't hurt to watch it.
