      I gave five stars back then, but now I only listen to Yamazaki Masahiro

      I wrote it when I was a teenager, let’s include it, I found it again. I was full of inspiration at that time, and I still admire that I was able to find several pieces of paper at that time. what exam essay.

      Part A:
      Our life thought by "Seconds"

      For most of the people who have seen it and said that there are only pictures and only a few words and only very faint, I don't want to say the word unreasonable.

      Although most people have the same fun and superficial...

      Don't pick the fruit of memory randomly?

      "Five Centimeters Per Second" was finished at lunch time, and it took about half a month from reading the first paragraph to today. The short one-hour animated film has been kept there and I haven't watched it. I don't know if I don't want to watch it, or if I don't have time. The rice cake Yao Yuan recommended for me to watch. Xin Haicheng. I have seen "She and Her Cat" before, which is also an animated short film. The ordinary life is completely free of strangeness and surprises, but it...

      The details of <5 centimeters per second>

      We all know that the speed of 5 centimeters
      per second is not very fast, and it can even be said to be very slow. Humans can walk faster than that.
      But what if this speed has been maintained for 14 years.
      It can be calculated by this formula.
      5CM/S * 14 years * 365 days * 24 hours * 60 minutes * 60 seconds
      = 22075.2 kilometers.
      22075.2 kilometers. This distance is exactly half a circle around the earth, that is, the distance between the south and north poles....

      Sadder than missing, never meet again

      I don't think I can write any more superfluous words to give superfluous compliments.
      Just want to watch it over and over again. Just a few snippets will do. Just listen to the sound.
      very clean. Very comfortable.
      There is also a little sadness,
      not too violent ups and downs.
      Some red eyes.
      These are things that you won't notice when you first start watching.

       

      The last picture.
      "I feel strongly that now, if you look back, the other party...

      bloom for a thousand years

      It's a very strange feeling, let me think about it carefully, the chance of you appearing in my dream is actually so small, but the time when I miss you is so much, so long, your figure is overwhelmingly occupied of my entire youth.

          In fact, I really want to have a moment when we once passed each other's hearts, the alleys that we walked silently under the falling petals, the fork in the road together, the small shops that we walked into, the same brand of milk we drank....

      I'm really completely immune to Japanese anime!! I really don't think it's good looking!! What are you doing with the planes!! When Takaki and Akari were in love when they were young, they kissed Xiaoxue and gave a small mouth. Even after counting for a long time, it still pretends to be decadent for me. Do you think that you want to resign just because you have social pressure!! Where would you put an older young woman like me like this useless net shoot for a female high school...

    Movie plot

    Takaki Tono transferred to an elementary school in Tokyo because of his parents' transfer. A year later, Shinohara Akari also transferred to the same class. The two are frail and sick, not good at sports, and like to stay alone in the library. Although they are still young, the two are still attracted to each other, and the other's presence in their hearts gradually becomes irreplaceable. However, the intimate world of the two ended...

    Movie quotes

    • Takaki Toono: It must really be a lonelier journey than anyone could imagine. Cutting through absolute darkness, encountering nothing but the occasional hydrogen atom. Flying blindly into the abyss, believing therein lie the answers to the mysteries of the universe.

    • Akari ShinoharaTakaki Toono: *Akari and Takaki kiss for the first time*

      Takaki Toono: And right then it felt like I finally understood where everything was, eternity, the heart , the soul. It was like I was sharing every experience I'd ever had in my past 13 years. And then, the next moment, I became unbearably sad. I didn't know what to do with these feeling. Her warmth, her soul. How was I supposed to treat them? That, I did not know. Then right then, I clearly understood that we would never be together. Our lives not yet fully realized, the vast expanse of time. They lay before us and there was nothing we could do. But then, all my worries, all my doubt, started melting away. All that was left were Akari's soft lips on mine.

    • Takaki Toono: On that day... the day she called... Akari must've been so much more jittery and upset than me, yet I couldn't find the words to console her. I felt so ashamed of myself.
